[18:25:01] <chromas> Sulla: Don't be a bigot. It's their culture!
[18:40:26] <Sulla> Read that some judge thinks all non commercial chef or butcher knives must be rounded
[18:40:32] <Sulla> Sounds like progress
[18:40:44] <chromas> Well he has a point
[18:40:49] <chromas> but the knifes shouldn't
[18:41:10] <Sulla> I thought his idea was pretty sharp
[18:41:34] <Sulla> Really helped me to hone my opinion
[18:44:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> man, i tell ya, spend any time outside when it's over 85F in TN and you really appreciate you some air conditioning.
[18:45:34] <Sulla> That sounds awful
[18:46:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> naw. there's a lot to be said for sitting on the porch with a cold drink while you watch the kids mow.
[18:46:44] <AndyTheAbsurd> In Florida, you appreciate the fact that A/C comes with dehumidification pretty much no matter what the outside temperature is.
[18:47:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh i don't mind humidity if the temp's below 70.

[19:02:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> ah well. i don't really blame them. having an actual-but-tiny keyboard is like having a airline-sized bottle of scotch.
[19:02:44] <Sulla> Hah
[19:02:54] <AndyTheAbsurd> better than having nothing, but not by much?
[19:02:56] <Sulla> Rather have a small dick than no dick at all. Not that I do
[19:03:36] <chromas> You don't have one at all?
[19:03:47] * chromas assumes Sulla's gender
[19:03:55] * AndyTheAbsurd liked the small keyboard on his Samsung SGH-T699
[19:04:06] <AndyTheAbsurd> too bad that phone's too old be useful these days
[19:04:33] <Sulla> Top scientists belive there is no such thing as biological sex
[19:04:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> worse than having nothing. it's just enough to make you want more.
[19:04:52] <Sulla> I use a BlackBerry classic on a dock as a home phone
[19:05:22] * TheMightyBuzzard points the top scientists to pornhub.com
[19:06:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> there's only four sexes. male, female, unfortunate, and insane.
[19:08:33] <AndyTheAbsurd> no, there's two sexes and 31 genders. At least, according to the state of New York. https://www.newsmax.com
[19:08:39] * chromas is insanely unfortunately male
[19:08:46] <AndyTheAbsurd> s/state/city/
[19:09:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> and don't worry, Sulla. small peckers make the wife more likely to give you buttseks.
[19:11:04] <Sulla> New York is such a joke
[19:13:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, i'm late for my nap today but some things you just can't put off till tomorrow.

[23:27:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> ah, well as long as you're only doing self-debugging with them that's fine.
