[08:40] *** Now talking in #suburbansenshi

[08:40] <GERMATOID> IS IT ME OR HAS SLASHDOT GONE DOWN THE TOILET LATELY
[08:40] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Nobody reads that s[BLEEP]t exceot for linux geeks man
[08:41] <GERMATOID> :<
[08:41] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> "Waah Linux is superior Windows is teh suck oh s[BLEEP]t it's OSX waah waah"
[08:41] <GERMATOID> I JUST MEAN THEY USED TO BE ON THE BLEEDING EDGE, NOW THEY JUST BLEED DUPLICATE STORIES
[08:43] * @S.X. Aino delurks
[08:43] <@S.X. Aino> Hey guys remember Molatar? Well I found a bigger cache of his stuff, it's on this page
[08:43] <@S.X. Aino> --> https://www.completelycalm.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=184&forum=5
[08:43] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> DUPE
[08:43] <@S.X. Aino> Who's a dupe?
[08:44] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Your story's a dupe as in a duplicate as in slashdot
[08:44] <@S.X. Aino> Nooo, because my story's an elaboration~
[08:44] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> That's what all the lazy-ass slashdot editors say :P
[08:45] <@S.X. Aino> :P
[08:45] <GERMATOID> I WANT MY CATHEDERAL OF DEEP GEEKERY BACK :<
[08:45] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> hahahaha they sold out ages ago and you never figured it out? Half of their stories are just clever product palcements
[08:46] <GERMATOID> ...............
[08:46] <@S.X. Aino> Slashdot is a perfect example of an echo chamber. If you go there and post something, you can predict to within 90% accuracy as to the spread of replies. Pro-Linux stories will be hailed;
[08:48] <@S.X. Aino> heck if you make linux run a TOASTER they'll quiver and twitch in a delirium of delicious delight
[08:48] <@S.X. Aino> But if you DARE point out the many weaknesses of the platform they set upon you like rabid roaches running from radioactive raid
[08:49] <GERMATOID> SAKURA-KUN, YOU KNOW WINDOWS IS JUST SETTING YOU UP FOR ENTRAPMENT AND DOMINATION
[08:49] <@S.X. Aino> Yes but you see my time is *worth* something to me, no matter how much of it I have. In this day and age I shouldn't have to fratz with config files just to get SOUND to work
[08:50] * @S.X. Aino is pondering a mac
[08:50] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> HAHAHAHAH Why don't you just shoot yourself in the head and be over with it
[08:51] <@S.X. Aino> What? For contemporary OSes, Mac would seem to be the best logical step, the big programs like Photoshop will work for it.
[08:51] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Apple's going to get in bed with big media just like MS did man.
[08:51] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Think about it
[08:51] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Where the hell does Apple's cash come from? The iPod. What makes the iPod work?
[08:52] <GERMATOID> MP3 PIRACY
[08:52] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Nope, you got lots of people paying $1 a track
[08:52] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Music companies HATE selling their s[BLEEP]t for $1 a track
[08:53] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> They remember the days of $7 for a SINGLE track CD and they want that s[BLEEP]t back
[08:53] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> But Jobs has them by the [BLEEP] to a certain extent
[08:54] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> But so do they have him, if he doesn't play ball with their rights management bulls[BLEEP]t, they'll just say "Oh, well, f[BLEEP]k you we're taking our music back what good is your iPod now?"
[08:54] <GERMATOID> WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW, APPLE? WHERE IS YOUR GOD?! MUAHAHAHAHAHA
[08:54] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Yeah. So... MS is only walking down the Path of EvilTM first man
[08:55] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Apple's gonna follow, and then all that pretty "lickable" interface s[BLEEP]t aside, they will still own you
[08:55] <@S.X. Aino> But don't you use Windows, Harry-P?
[08:56] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Yeah because I'm a GAMER. If I wanted to only play like some damn pengium running around in a go cart I might switch to Linux
[08:57] <@S.X. Aino> Hmm, but to me the PC as a gaming platform seems almost antiquarian given the rise of the consoles and their portable bretheren
[08:57] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Yo that reminds me
[08:57] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> WHO THE f[BLEEP]k IS DUMB ENOUGH TO BUY MOVIES FOR THE PSP
[08:58] <GERMATOID> THERE'S SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR HAVING ENTERTAINMENT ON THE GO
[08:58] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> man, I think those 5" LCD DVD players are a f[BLEEP]king retarded ripoff
[08:58] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> "Our unit has surround sound and DTS!"
[08:59] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> SO WHAT PUNKS THE DAMN SCREEN IS MICROSCOPIC
[08:59] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> And what the hell good is DTS on HEADPHONES, unless you don't mena to be portable in which case why the hell are you putting up with a 5" screen?!
[09:00] <@S.X. Aino> The gimmick is being able to take your movies with you anywhere. This is why cellphone companies are trying to stream movie clips on phones, which have an even lower resolution.
[09:01] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Yeah because nothing beats watching "Fill Bill" on a 2" screen in the middle of sunday school class
[09:01] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> ............
[09:01] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> LOL now I want a PSP
[09:01] <GERMATOID> YOU GO TO SUNDAY SCHOOL?
[09:02] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> No but with a PSP and a Fill Bill disc I might XD
[09:02] <@S.X. Aino> You iconoclast, you
[09:02] <GERMATOID> WHO'S AN ICONOCLAST? IF YOU LOOK UP "ZEALOT" IN THE DICTIONARY THERE'S AN ENTRY JUST FOR HER
[09:02] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> hey!
[09:03] <GERMATOID> HARUKA-KUN: "OH! IS SHE THE MESSIAH? *GASP*"
[09:03] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> ...stfu man
[09:03] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> that was a long time ago
[09:03] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> in fact it's been so long i deny all allegations
[09:04] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> geez, to think it WAS her all along ><
[09:05] <@S.X. Aino> Did Usagi's purity of heart give her those powers, or did those powers contribute to her purity of heart?
[09:05] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Why must the messiah be a lovesick 14 year old eating machine who goes for guys in Tuxedo Masks?
[09:06] <GERMATOID> TRUE
[09:06] <GERMATOID> SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE GOTH EMO MESSIAH OF SILENCE WHO SAVAGES TEDDY BEARS
[09:06] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Damn we were stuck between a rock and a hard place man
[09:07] <FireFly_9> I'M YOUR *DAUGHTER* T_T
[09:07] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> It's the messiah of silence OH SHI
[09:07] <FireFly_9> ¬_¬
[09:07] <FireFly_9> Very funny
[09:07] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> DUDE! DUUUDE SOUICHI
[09:07] <GERMATOID> ?
[09:08] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> We should make Hotaru-chan and Neko-chan #1 fight in a wrestling ring to see WHO IS THE TRUE MESSIAH!
[09:08] <FireFly_9> That is the most asine, backwards, *ignorant* thing you have EVER said, Haruka-poppa.
[09:09] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Well Hotaru do YOU know the answer?
[09:09] <FireFly_9> The answer to what?
[09:09] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Who the TRUE Messiah is?
[09:09] <FireFly_9> It's not me!
[09:09] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> STOP LYING you just don't want to fight!
[09:10] <FireFly_9> ......What the HELL are you going on about?
[09:10] <@S.X. Aino> Okee, this is a *liiitle* too weird now...
[09:10] <GERMATOID> SAKURA-KUN, THIS IS HOW THEY ARE ALL THE TIME
[09:10] <FireFly_9> I am NOT going to fight Usagi-san to see who the True Messiah is!
[09:11] * @S.X. Aino nods
[09:11] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> I can see it now man
[09:11] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> I can see it now
[09:11] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> In one corner: "Slayer of Galaxia and eater of sweets, the pure innocent Usagi, who claims to be the Messiah of Light! "
[09:12] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> And in the other: "The suburban Senshi's own emogoth answer to Alanis Morisette except that she knows how to use the word Irony in a sentence! The girl who would be the Messiah of Silence, Hotaru!"
[09:13] <FireFly_9> Ridiculous!
[09:13] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Fighting in Lingerie like Papillon Rose, they will wallow in the mud until only one remains! Two messiah enter, one messiah leave~
[09:14] <FireFly_9> CERTAINLY NOT
[09:14] * GERMATOID HAS ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE USAGI-KUN IN LINGERIE
[09:14] <FireFly_9> she's old enough to be your daughter!
[09:14] <GERMATOID> AND SO ARE YOU
[09:14] <FireFly_9> I *am* your daughter!
[09:15] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> You're my daughter too
[09:15] <GERMATOID> WHICH MAKES HARUKA-KUN AND ME HUSBAND AND STEP-WIFE OR SOMETHING
[09:15] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> f[BLEEP]k man... that's just f[BLEEP]ked up right there
[09:16] <@S.X. Aino> another tangle in the family tree heh
[09:17] <FireFly_9> this is too much for me this early in the day
[09:17] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> dude I wanna do it
[09:17] <GERMATOID> GREAT! MY HAMMOCK IN THE LAB IS JUST BIG ENOUGH FOR TWO
[09:17] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> ........................
[09:17] <@S.X. Aino> Ewwww
[09:17] <FireFly_9> PAPA!
[09:18] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> No, man, I want to put your daughter against the Queen of Crystal Tokyo in mortal kombat for fun and profit
[09:18] <GERMATOID> :<
[09:18] <GERMATOID> :>
[09:18] <GERMATOID> COOL, SHE'S IN! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
[09:18] <FireFly_9> No I'm not, I refuse!
[09:18] <GERMATOID> YOU CAN'T REFUSE, YOU'RE MY PROPERTY
[09:18] <FireFly_9> I am not!
[09:19] <GERMATOID> THEN GIVE ME BACK MY DNA
[09:19] <FireFly_9> ...................
[09:19] * @S.X. Aino giggles
[09:19] <FireFly_9> I have reached the age of majority
[09:19] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Then how come you still get carded everywhere when I'm buying drinks
[09:19] <GERMATOID> BECAUSE SHE LOOKS LIKE A 12-YEAR OLD BOY
[09:20] * FireFly_9 growls
[09:20] <GERMATOID> WHAT IT'S TRUE NO ONE WOULD BELIEVE YOU'RE PAST 12
[09:20] <GERMATOID> THEY SEE YOU IN THE MALL AND GO "OOH, WHAT A LOVELY BISHOUNEN!"
[09:20] <GERMATOID> MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
[09:20] *** FireFly_9 [ruin@ntt1.docomo.jp] has quit IRC (I will not be a party to this)
[09:21] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Saki-chan, can you snag us the future Queen?
[09:21] * @S.X. Aino stays the heck away from the crystal millennium court
[09:21] <@S.X. Aino> Ask Serenity III to help you
[09:21] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Man Chibiusa always wants a f[BLEEP]king bribe or some s[BLEEP]t
[09:22] <@S.X. Aino> Well if it's that important to you, you know what you have to do XD
[09:22] * @S.X. Aino is away: this *could* get interesting
[09:23] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> man why do I always have to do the work and s[BLEEP]t
