[02:36:20] <takyon> hi
[02:38:18] * TheMightyBuzzard /wave
[02:39:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> waiting patiently for the nyquil to kick in. this new formula is utter shit compared to what i took as a kid. it'd put you the fuck to sleep in a big hurry back then.
[02:40:30] <takyon> take melatonin
[02:42:07] <Fnord666_> that’s because half the ingredients are now federal controlled substances
[02:42:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> bastards
[02:42:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> guess i could top it off with some crown, see if that helps
[02:43:10] <takyon> no interactions there I hope
[02:43:27] <Fnord666_> such killjoys
[02:43:36] <Fnord666_> or buzzkills more like
[02:43:46] <takyon> u dunno me
[02:44:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> i was hoping the opposite. hard to get to sleep when you can barely breathe because they outlawed the decongestant that fucking worked
[02:44:16] <takyon> use that vick's vapo rub
[02:44:21] <takyon> tthat works
[02:44:38] <takyon> stick it in your nose even tho the label says to not do that
[02:44:50] <Fnord666_> i bet that burns
[02:44:58] <takyon> i bet its better than sleep apnea
[02:46:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> sons of bitches. idgaf if 1/50k people who took it reacted poorly. i wasn't one of them. dat shit liked me just fine.
[02:47:20] * TheMightyBuzzard is a surly bastard when sick rather than his usual cheerful self
[02:47:39] <takyon> you should have seen me a week ago
[02:48:28] <Fnord666_> well you knew this would happen sooner or later:
[02:48:30] <Fnord666_> https://www.engadget.com
[02:48:30] <upstart> ^ 03Alleged swatting hoax ends in the death of a father of two (updated)
[02:48:41] <takyon> we had that story
[02:48:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, hey, you hear that the science guys are now thinking that lots of illnesses go easier on females by design?
[02:49:00] <takyon> no I did not hear that
[02:49:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> takyon, ya, we beat /. to that one even
[02:49:08] <Fnord666_> did we catch the update
[02:49:10] <Fnord666_> https://www.engadget.com
[02:49:10] <upstart> ^ 03LAPD arrested a 25-year-old suspect in Wichita 'swatting' case
[02:49:25] <takyon> i mean, it doesn't really matter. the comments covered that
[02:49:35] <takyon> guy looks like a human penis a bit though
[02:49:59] <Fnord666_> that’s what I meant. At least covered in the comments
[02:50:05] <Fnord666_> and lol
[02:50:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> that reminds me. how did we miss this story our first year? https://www.theguardian.com
[02:50:31] <upstart> ^ 03Paul McCarthy 'butt plug' sculpture in Paris provokes rightwing backlash | Art and design | The Guardian
[02:50:39] <takyon> it'll be interesting to see what they nail him for. maybe he'll only get like a year in prison
[02:51:04] <Bytram> well, filing a false report, for one.
[02:51:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> takyon, manslaughter i expect. death resulting from the commission of any other crime.
[02:51:22] <Bytram> maybe reckless endangerment, too?
[02:51:26] <takyon> there are specific anti-swatting laws in the books in some states
[02:51:37] <takyon> TheMightyBuzzard: I was told it had to be a felony for that
[02:51:46] * TheMightyBuzzard shurgs
[02:52:32] <Fnord666_> the wrongful death civil suit will be a slam dunk and his financial future is done for
[02:52:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> i don't think so. had a friend go in for it after the guy riding with him got killed when he rolled his truck drunk.
[02:52:56] <takyon> who cares about civil suits? he's 25 with no assets and could just flee the country for that
[02:52:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> dui ain't a felony i don't think
[02:53:55] * Bytram wonders how he got his truck drunk? Put ethanol in the tank?
[02:54:03] <takyon> it was ethanol-fueled
[02:54:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's a given nowadays
[02:54:09] <Bytram> touche'
[02:54:13] <Bytram> takyon++
[02:54:13] <Bender> karma - takyon: 38
[02:54:23] <Bytram> ROFL!
[02:54:30] * Bytram needed that
[02:54:46] <Fnord666_> cotd
[02:54:59] * Bytram also needs to try and catch up on his sleep... don't have a day off until thursday. :/
[02:55:07] <Fnord666_> uggh
[02:55:24] <takyon> damn bytram
[02:55:26] <Bytram> do get time-and-a-half for working new years
[02:55:41] <Bytram> and, get paid an extra 8 hours, too, IIRC
[02:55:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh you ought to sell like hotcakes while you're all coughing and wiping your nose on your sleeve
[02:56:12] * Bytram tries to be discreet about cleaning his sniffling schnoz
[02:56:23] <takyon> he uses a tissue lel
[02:56:28] <Bytram> right now, it's just runny nose
[02:56:36] <Bytram> tissues++
[02:56:36] <Bender> karma - tissues: 1
[02:56:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'why you use _your own_ sleeve. manners.
[02:56:55] <Fnord666_> does your nose run? Do your feet smell? You were built upside down!
[02:57:04] * Bytram notes TheMightyBuzzard has seen what tissues can do in a #fite
[02:57:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> tushy
[02:57:44] <takyon> we should have a soylentnews rpg where accepted submissions level up your character
[02:57:57] <Bytram> Fnord666: if my math works out, let me be the first to congratulate you on moving into 5th place on the HoF!
[02:58:03] * TheMightyBuzzard ponders on that
[02:58:21] <Bytram> also up-modded comments should be good for something too
[02:58:41] <Bytram> by the same token, down-modded comments should also have an effect
[02:58:47] <Fnord666_> Bytram: It appears you are likely correct. Thanks!
[02:58:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> i could put a query for it in the api. it's not high cost.
[02:58:49] <takyon> yes
[02:59:23] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: got a minute for a PM?
[03:00:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> yes. if only to stop my brain from going through all possible combinations for PM. i'm up to poopy muskrat currently.
[03:01:56] <takyon> https://www.youtube.com
[03:01:57] <upstart> ^ 03Lil Wayne - Family Feud feat. Drake (Official Audio) | Dedication 6 - YouTube
[03:04:53] <Bytram> okay gang, I really need to see about getting some sleep.
[03:05:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm kinda disappointed
[03:05:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> https://www.hardocp.com
[03:05:19] <upstart> ^ 03[H]ardOCP: Police Arrest Alleged "Nigerian Prince" Email Scammer in Louisiana
[03:05:19] * Bytram glances at the story queue and sees you already have that covered -- much obliged!
[03:05:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> ^^ wasn't even from nigeria ffs
[03:05:39] <Bytram> sadly, story is not as interesting as the title suggests.
[03:05:46] <takyon> you can't blame it on me
[03:05:50] <takyon> I'm mr. NUMBER ONE
[03:05:53] <Fnord666_> they rarely are
[03:05:53] <Bytram> and, is just one of likely very many such ruses
[03:06:23] * Bytram has looked at far too many journal titles to be able to fully agree with that statement
[03:07:42] <Bytram> https://www.sciencedaily.com
[03:07:43] <upstart> ^ 03Pardon Our Interruption
[03:07:45] <Fnord666_> in the land of sensationalist headlines the understated title is king?
[03:08:21] <takyon> why are the images shaped like little moons
[03:08:28] <takyon> is this a "selenium" joke
[03:08:33] <Bytram> "Carfilzomib can lead to cardiovascular toxicity in multiple myeloma patients"
[03:08:45] <Bytram> now THAT is exciting!
[03:08:48] <Bytram> :P
[03:09:24] <Bytram> but seriously... I'll catch ya all in the AM -- have a great night everyone!
[03:09:36] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: thanks again for the query help
[03:10:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar
[03:10:35] <Fnord666_> good night Bytram

[14:54:16] <Ingar> damn rain
[15:07:36] <FatPhil> yeah, you don't want temperatures of 12C. 4C and sleet would probably be worst. -1 and snow is perfect, if it has to precipitate.
[15:15:16] <FatPhil> Bought some beaver tail at the xmas market - absoutely no idea what to do with it!
[15:15:50] <FatPhil> slap guests about with it?
