14:10:49 <Halcyon_> Hey Ampera
14:10:54 <Ampera> Hi Halcyon_
14:10:55 <Halcyon_> Oh it's midnight there
14:10:58 <Halcyon_> Oh you are awake
14:10:59 <Ampera> lol
14:11:00 Nick: Halcyon_ is now known as Halcyon

14:11:06 <Ampera> too depressed to sleep I guess
14:11:12 <Halcyon> Aww, beause you miss me?
14:11:21 <Ampera> no, but it's nice to see you
14:11:26 <Halcyon> :-)
14:11:29 <Halcyon> Likewise
14:11:31 <Ampera> I feel worse now than I ever have before
14:11:35 <Ampera> a genuine new low
14:11:58 <Halcyon> Any particular reason why?
14:12:01 <Ampera> I am excited for the package, it should come today.
14:12:04 <Ampera> Various.
14:12:16 <Ampera> All somewhat linked together in the most horrific of ways.
14:12:28 <Halcyon> Oh yes, I just saw that it's in your city
14:12:33 <Ampera> Me and my dad's new girlfriend do not get along, more than I haven't gotten along with any person I've ever known.
14:12:51 <Ampera> It's been at the post office since 6AM yesterday, I was hoping they would deliver it yesterday.
14:12:52 <Halcyon> She seems to be a reoccurring theme
14:13:08 <Ampera> and since she's sticking around for a while now, I'm getting sick of being in my house and not wanting to go anywhere in it or do anything in it.
14:13:20 <Halcyon> I can understand that
14:13:23 <Halcyon> Maybe she should go find a job
14:13:31 <Ampera> She's on disability
14:13:43 <Halcyon> Of course she is
14:13:54 <Ampera> She's a fat retarded chimney
14:14:03 <Halcyon> Chimney? She smokes too?
14:14:18 <Ampera> My dad has literally told family members to fuck off for smoking outside of our house
14:14:38 <Ampera> He has gone within an inch of getting his ass handed to him by total strangers for being a dick to people minding their own business and smoking at/outside bars
14:14:55 <Ampera> He has literally gone on record as proclaiming smokers to be the literal scum of the earth
14:15:03 <Halcyon> This is what fucks me off, there are people with genuine disabilities and stuggles, then there are those who claim they can't work but do nothing to change their bad habits (smoking, drinking, drugs, gambling etc...)
14:15:03 <Ampera> and now he's dating a chimney
14:15:15 <Ampera> no apparently she has bipolar
14:15:25 <Halcyon> Mark used to smoke, I told him he will be moving out if he didn't quit
14:15:33 <Halcyon> So? Bipolar people can still work
14:15:39 <Ampera> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
14:16:06 <Ampera> That's not something I can particularly attest to, as I have a grandfather with Schizoaffective disorder, so
14:16:19 <Ampera> and he sort of /retired early/ because of it
14:16:31 <Halcyon> I'm sure slowly killing herself with poisons isn't helping her mental health
14:16:39 <Ampera> I honestly don't care
14:16:41 <Ampera> I don't like her, he does
14:16:56 <Halcyon> Not suggesting you should, I'm just saying, people like that are a drain on society
14:17:07 <Ampera> and while I could literally get her to fuck off in a day, that's at the cost of fucking my dad's relationship over
14:17:29 <Halcyon> But there are millions of other people out there? Can he just not date a loser?
14:17:39 <Ampera> that's hard
14:17:41 <Ampera> because he is a loser
14:17:51 <Halcyon> Hmm
14:18:26 <Ampera> The thing is before my dad had a girlfriend I could really do whatever in the house, and it was a secure place I could explore my issues and do things like crossdressing
14:18:42 <Ampera> but now I don't feel comfortable doing that anymore, and it's draining on me more than ever
14:18:59 <Ampera> Going to school is nice, and I enjoy going, but it also is making the situation much worse.
14:19:37 <Ampera> I get genuinely depressed looking at women, as if it's fresh pizza in the face of a starving man (don't look into that one too much, I don't feel like making a better analogy)
14:20:13 <Ampera> it's also horrifically boring, as I consistently outperform everyone, and literally had a teacher tell me that I'm wasting my time with a class
14:20:50 <Halcyon> It is very frustrating when you're surrounding by average people
14:20:54 <Ampera> lol
14:21:13 <Ampera> average is a way of putting it, the type of people that are in low level CC classes are fucking retards
14:21:13 <Ampera> seriously
14:21:32 <Ampera> in my history class we had a map quiz, and one of the problems was to circle great britain
14:21:38 <Halcyon> BRB, phone
14:21:52 <Ampera> I seriously heard multiple people get told by the teacher that they were supposed to include london when circling.
14:22:02 <Ampera> how the fuck do you circle great britain, but not london

14:34:11 <Halcyon> Back
14:35:04 * Ampera throws a cat at Halcyon
14:35:37 <Halcyon> Argh fark, I have to go to court on Wednesday
14:35:43 <Halcyon> It's going to be such a fucking waste of time
14:36:26 <Halcyon> I keep telling them to organise it so I can video conference in... but noooo they want me to drive 3+ hours to give evidence over something simple
14:36:43 <Ampera> lol
14:36:56 <Ampera> Why don't you move closer to the city?
14:37:12 <Ampera> maybe find a place that will get you internet that isn't as potato quality
14:37:14 <Halcyon> Honestly, all it is, is I have to explain something about recovery of deleted Whatsapp messages and why the time/dates in the report show up at UTC +0
14:37:33 <Halcyon> It's no where near the city, court is in Netcastle
14:37:37 <Halcyon> Newcastle
14:37:40 <Halcyon> Which is 3 hours from Sydney
14:37:44 <Ampera> oh
14:37:47 <Ampera> nvm then
14:37:58 <Halcyon> Normally we could just phone in from our office and do a video call
14:38:21 <Halcyon> But the Director of Public Prosecutions are fucked. Anything slightly technical and they lose their mind
14:40:10 <Ampera> I wonder if I could map the quality of eurovision entires correlating to the economic success of countries, regions, and potentially europe...
14:49:22 <Ampera> Still around, Halcyon?
14:49:29 <Halcyon> Yep

16:32:45 <steve30> hi
16:36:49 <Halcyon> Hey Steve
16:43:51 <steve30> I got my bike sorted the other day :)
16:43:59 <Halcyon> Oh nice
16:44:51 <steve30> Ended up needing some more new parts in the end, so it came to £140. Should last a while now though :)
16:45:04 <Halcyon> YAY
16:45:54 <steve30> I'm going to go out somewhere later.

16:53:28 <steve30> I've got some painting to do first though
17:01:33 <steve30> Halcyon, do you have any tips for dealing with gays who only seem to manage to write one word messages?
17:01:43 <Halcyon> Get rid of them?
17:02:15 <Halcyon> Generally it means that aren't interested or they lack social skills
17:02:19 <Halcyon> It's usually the former
17:08:51 * steve30 wouldn't mind another coffee
17:09:01 <Halcyon> I wouldn't mind a nap
17:09:07 <Halcyon> But it's almost dinner time
17:28:30 <steve30> mmm, dinner
18:23:25 <Halcyon> I made pork and shiraz sausages with a salad
18:23:43 <steve30> i have coffee

20:02:43 <K> hello
20:09:28 <Halcyon> Hi K
20:09:37 <Halcyon> How are things in your part of the world?
20:17:55 <K> autumny
20:18:06 <K> central heating is not on yet
20:18:41 <K> it takes significant mental effort to get out of under the blanket
20:32:48 <Halcyon> Why not just turn on the heat?
20:37:44 <K> it is central
20:37:50 <Halcyon> Yes?
20:37:56 <K> as in - the city manages it
20:37:58 <Halcyon> Is that not just a button on a wall?
20:38:00 <Halcyon> Oh right
20:38:06 <Halcyon> Super-central
20:38:09 <K> yes
20:38:26 <K> The Greater Central Heating
20:38:40 <Halcyon> We have "central" air conditioning here. But that's just a ducted system which I paid for and can set to anything I want
20:39:03 <K> The Personal Central Heating
20:39:25 <Halcyon> For the most part I use it for cooling
20:39:29 <Halcyon> (Being in Sydney, AU)
