00:36:18 <Nothing\> exactly 24 years ago to the minute (well, 5 minutes ago) tower 2 collapsed
00:36:48 <Nothing\> first plane hit at 8:45
00:37:04 <rc-garage> woohoo!
00:38:12 <Nothing\> rc-garage, i watched a great interview with a guy who was in the south tower when it collapsed. Fell 22 stories inside the tower as it collapsed and somehow made it out with just a broken foot.
00:38:28 <rc-garage> ok
00:39:17 <Nothing\> he was in the stairwell evacuating. Said he heard something like a freight train coming down the stairwell and thought something huge was falling towards them. Which, he wasn't wrong about. It was the sound of the pancaking floors above coming towards him.
00:41:02 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
00:41:07 <Nothing\> he said he felt the wall behind him move and suddenly he was getting beat in the head repeatedly. Next thing he knows, he comes to on the ledge of the debris pile overlooking this giant hole where the building used to be. He only had a couple of square feet to sit on otherwise he woulda just fell into the hole and died
00:41:20 <Nothing\> it was a crazy story. I never heard any real survivor stories before
00:41:25 <Nothing\> heya ampy. How ya doing?
00:43:14 <Ampera> Nothing\, I'm doing pretty good. I got some new boots I am really loving.
00:43:22 <Nothing\> ooh nice
00:43:27 <Nothing\> are they made for walking?
00:43:28 <Ampera> lemme see if I can snatch a pic
00:43:36 <Nothing\> heh i was gonna ask
00:43:42 <Nothing\> i'm curious now
00:43:58 <Nothing\> i've been wearing the same shoes for 10 years
00:44:20 <rc-garage> it is the ones with poisoned spikes, I wonder... those are pretty nice
00:44:20 <Nothing\> every few years they wear out and I go back to Walmart and buy the exact same pair, because it's what I know I'll like.
00:44:37 <Nothing\> rc-garage, on the inside or outside?
00:44:47 <Ampera> https://cloud.systemtheta.net/s/9C38dGwFf4ZArXJ/preview https://cloud.systemtheta.net/s/XePgELorzWegzYZ/preview
00:44:47 <Nothing\> because i'm picturing something like an iron maiden for feet
00:44:48 <Ampera> Nothing\,
00:45:00 <rc-garage> you are suck, Nothing\
00:45:05 <Nothing\> classy
00:45:06 <rc-garage> or sick, lol
00:45:24 <Nothing\> rc-garage, neither. Just a product of the world I live in
00:45:28 <Ampera> guess how much I paid for them, Nothing\
00:45:52 <Nothing\> now that's a hard guess, but being women's boots, I'm going to guess $200ish?
00:46:01 <Nothing\> winter boots aren't cheap
00:46:02 <Ampera> hehehe
00:46:05 <Ampera> 25 bucks
00:46:10 <rc-garage> i did not mention a reason for you being like that.
00:46:10 <Nothing\> noice!
00:46:15 <Nothing\> robert Noyce
00:46:24 <rc-garage> those look nice
00:46:30 <Nothing\> don't they?
00:46:35 <Ampera> I walked past one of my coworkers a few minutes ago, and he stopped and looked at me funny for like 10 seconds
00:46:36 <Nothing\> they're classy, but not garishly so
00:46:44 <Ampera> until he looked down and figured out why I was suddenly taller loool
00:46:46 <Ampera> it was so funny
00:46:49 <Nothing\> subdued, yet, professional
00:47:02 <Nothing\> rofl Ampera
00:47:05 <Nothing\> are you short?
00:47:14 <Nothing\> I'm a short bastard at 5'7"
00:47:25 <Nothing\> and yet, I'm the tallest in my immediate family lol
00:47:50 <Ampera> I'm 5'8"
00:48:00 <Nothing\> ahh yeah so you know the pain all too well
00:48:01 <Ampera> these heels are about 3.5" I think
00:48:03 <Ampera> nah
00:48:09 <Ampera> that's not short for a woman at all
00:48:15 <rc-garage> that makes me think, someone in your family, is further to go around, than over top of
00:48:21 <Nothing\> Ampera, I never got why people do that fucked up surgery to make them taller
00:48:22 <Ampera> I'm like a perfect normal height
00:48:39 <Nothing\> Ampera, true actually. Tall people ALWAYS have back issues
00:48:52 <Nothing\> not to mention never fitting in a bath tub
00:48:54 <Ampera> well I can fix that
00:49:06 <Nothing\> which, why the hell can't they make bath tubs just 3 inches longer and 2 inches deeper
00:49:06 <Ampera> I can have all the lower back and leg muscle issues I want with these new boots :D
00:49:37 <Nothing\> it's like they make them JUUUUST small enough that some part of your body has to be sticking out
00:49:59 <rc-garage> errm
00:50:17 <Nothing\> rc-garage, yes even that part
00:50:25 <Nothing\> i mean, it friggin floats
00:50:29 <flyback> B
00:50:30 <flyback> M
00:50:30 <flyback> C
00:50:31 <flyback> C
00:50:38 * flyback chockslams Nothing\
00:50:44 <Nothing\> my balls float
00:50:53 <Nothing\> -Pennywise the Clown
00:51:15 <rc-garage> i wonder if you can put a valve in them, and inflate, and use them to float
00:52:12 <Nothing\> rc-garage, I've seen a fetish where people inject massive amounts of saline into their scrotum and inflate it to like 6in across
00:52:27 <Nothing\> apparently it just absorbs harmlessly eventually. But WHY?!
00:53:25 <Nothing\> i've been watching too many dermatological surgeries lately
00:53:43 <rc-garage> one is too many, so...
00:54:23 <rc-garage> I hear K would look down on you people. there is a rumor saying he is too tall
00:54:26 <Nothing\> heh i grew up watching surgeries on TV. Even a vasectomy once.
00:54:35 <Nothing\> I'd watch them while eating supper when I was like 8
00:56:15 <rc-garage> that is always handy, in case you get stuck on an island somewhere

07:18:05 <K> welp, i dont have any back issues so far
07:18:30 <K> but yea, i do occasionally have to look down onto ppl
07:18:58 <K> i just cant help it
07:20:18 <rc-garage> dad used to talk about how he enjoyed being in china, because he is not very tall, but finally he could look down on someone. He also learned to hate noodles

07:28:52 <MrMobodies> I suppose he could change it so they get off his back. Just like AOL Aim and Gaim where they were forced to change it to Pidgen.
07:29:13 <MrMobodies> but not the name

10:24:06 <Nothing\> this is odd
10:24:28 <Nothing\> i found something my doctor wrote back in 2003 where he says he's a veteran of WWII
10:24:38 <Nothing\> and he's not 90 years old
10:25:10 <Nothing\> same first name, last initial, same medical field, same province and region
10:25:32 <Nothing\> unless his father had the same name, but I don't see jews using "jr" or "the second"
10:26:16 <Nothing\> and he's not some charlatan, either. He's highly respected in his field and even literally wrote the standards for methadone maintenance in Ontario
10:26:37 <Nothing\> very odd, but then nothing adds up in this damned world anymore

14:36:56 <MrMobodies> Yep all prepared that Dell t130. Got to run some more cables to the racking for it.
14:37:05 <MrMobodies> This time it is going into a Vlan
14:37:24 <MrMobodies> Only want it for file sharing.
14:37:42 <MrMobodies> to replace that NSA310 that's awfully slow
14:41:25 <MrMobodies> another annoying thing about it, when the UPS fail I have to manually turn it on
14:46:03 <MrMobodies> My hens are getting angry and loosing their temper
14:46:35 <MrMobodies> they want to go in the garden all the time which means we'll have to put a gate sooner otherwise they'll wonder off
14:46:44 <MrMobodies> I mean on the driveway
14:46:51 <MrMobodies> they do fly put seem pretty tame

15:02:45 <MrMobodies> It sounds like they are really angry like a growling sound
15:03:08 <MrMobodies> they also make that noise when my mum puts the back in.
15:04:06 <MrMobodies> but soon now they are older and bigger and when the a gate on the driveway is built we'll just leave the pen open in the mornings
