Rose's Story

Ticia: This is a story Rose wrote. Spelling has been fixed in this version, though. "Once upon a time, there was a castle full of love. Everyone inside loved each other and anyone who was mean, the guards asked them to leave. And if they didnt, they would get kicked out. And the king was the nicest of all. Every child who came to see him, he gave him or her, he gave them a candy and he gave them the whole day on the playground. And if they did not want to, he gave them a backpack. And if he did not want that, he gave them fish. The end.

Randy: Awwwwww

goldfishy: Hehe

Ticia: Then there is a picture of a stick figure man up on a throne with crown on his head and bag of fish in his hand.

Ticia: Coolest story ever.

Candy Hearts

* Ticia has a candy heart that says "Jump 4 me"

Ticia: What kind of sweet or romantic saying is that?

Ticia: It's stupid, is what it is.

Ticia: Jump 4 me. How high should I jump, oh master?

Ticia: It's just lame.

goldfishy: "There's a cliff over there - off you go!" "YES DARLING, ANYTHING FOR YOU!" "Moron"

Ticia: LOL

Ticia: This one says "Love her

Ticia: "

Ticia: Look, candy heart makers. I don't think you're getting the spirit of the candy.

Ticia: "Step up" LOL

goldfishy: I see you driving round town with the girl I love and I'm like "Love heeeeeeeeeeeerr" woo hoo hoooooo!

goldfishy: Doesn't really have the same ring to it

Tea Timers

goldfishy: There are still plenty of people who turn up that everyone knows that I don't know

goldfishy: That didn't make much sense

Randy: No I know what you mean. The old timers who randomly come by

goldfishy: I need to read The Long Dark Teatime Of The Soul

Randy: Ooh, me too!

goldfishy: And that is purely because uhmmm, yeah it has time in the title - I think it is actually that tenuous

ThePhan: Heh, there are tea timers who show up who *I* barely know.

ThePhan: Er, old timers.

ThePhan: These people keep showing up for tea and I don't know them!

At the Library By Myself

* wintermute took Bella to the library!

Randy: Wooo!

Randy: I picked up The Silmarillion today at the library myself

Ticia: Heh, I thought you said "at the library BY myself." and I was trying to figure out why you said that. Like you'd never been to the library alone before.

Goosey: LOL

Randy: LOL

Randy: It took me 33 years to get brave enough to do that.

wintermute: I never go to the library by myself.

wintermute: I have to take a small child with me

When to Wash Your Hair

LaZorra: I only wash my hair like twice a week, so that helps.

Goosey: I wash it 2-3 days.

Goosey: *ever

Goosey: *every 2-3 days

LaZorra: hahaha

Goosey: I SPEND THREE DAYS JUST WASHING MY HAIR

LaZorra: NO WONDER IT FALLS OUT

LaZorra: Here you thought you weren't taking good care of it. Turns you, you just shouldn't wash your hair for three straight days.

LOTION OF PAIN

* Goosey tries to pick up her lotion with her toes and drops it on the other foot. Ow.

LaZorra: LOTION OF PAIN

Goosey: LAZ: YOU ARE SO TIRED

LaZorra: HOW CAN YOU TELL

LaZorra: This is perfeclyt normal forme.

Goosey: Because you are yelling silly things like "LOTION OF PAIN" in all caps. ;-)

Richard Nixon Studebaker

ThePhan: Dear people typing up karaoke lyrics: If you don't put commas in between the individual items in "We Didn't Start the Fire," you add nonexistent items and people to the list, such as "Richard Nixon Studebaker" and "South Korea Marilyn Monroe."

Goosey: LOL LOL

wintermute: So they didn't set Richard Nixon's car on fire. Seems sensible enough to me.

Trouble With Percentages

ThePhan: http://failblog.files.wordpress.com/20...b4ca96-0f33-41ce-b2b9-05c26b5edf16.jpg

Sentynel: Wow. Those poor women. Being fired between three and three hundred times a year for being pregnant!

LaZorra: THIRTY THOUSAND PERCENT OF WOMEN ARE FIRED ILLEGALLY

Grishny: YOU ARE NUMBER THIRTY THOUSAND AND ONE PERCENT.

* ThePhan is reminded of a post she found on GAFF once...

ThePhan: The original fan fiction read, "He coordinated the killing of millions of Jews, between 200,000 and 500,000."

Sam: LOL!

ThePhan: The comment was, "200-500 billion Jews? That's many times the population of the Earth. Are the Nazis importing Jews from parallel universes just to kill them?"

Sentynel: I knew those Nazi scientists were up to something.

Dave: So that's what all those secret projects were about.

Dave: It wasn't about creating doomsday weapons to win the war. It was about importing Jews from across the Omniverse in order to KILL THEM!

Samoas

Ticia: I got super sick last night and felt like I was going to throw up, so I just went straight to bed without saying goodnight. It might have soemthing to do with the 6 Samoa cookies I ate. I'm feeling much better now.

Goosey: Ticia: LOL and awww

Ticia: :-D

Goosey: That will teach you not to scarf down the precious cookies.

Ticia: I had two Samoas to make up for it this morning.

Goosey: LOL!

Sam: LOL

Sam: TICIA RULES

Sentynel: I appreciate the dedication to not learning your lesson there.

Speech-To-Text Stories

ThePhan: Heh, I was looking back at old Facebook statuses. I found one when I was trying out this new voice-to-text Facebook status updater.

ThePhan: So I was driving home and attempted to send the message, "Wow. So many dead deer on the road today."

ThePhan: When I got home, I found I'd posted, "Wow. I said zero on the road today."

Goosey: LOL

ThePhan: OH BUT I HAVE THE BEST VOICE-TEXT-TRANSLATION STORY EVER

ThePhan: I just remembered it. Heh.

Goosey: LOL

ThePhan: My friend Sarah was at work, where she didn't have cell phone reception, but her cousin discovered she could text a landline and the computer voice would read the message out loud over the phone.

ThePhan: So Sarah's waiting at work to find out when her cousin can come pick her up, since she was her ride home.

ThePhan: The phone rings, and she picks it up, and a robot voice calmly intones, "We are coming to get you. We will be there soon."

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL

LaZorra: LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: THAT WAS THE WHOLE MESSAGE

* LaZorra hyperventilates.

Goosey: THAT IS NOT CREEPY AT ALL

Kickboxing On My Knees

ThePhan: LOL LOL, OK, so I'm looking through my transcripts for quotes.

ThePhan: And we're talking about push-ups: do you do them on your knees, or not?

Goosey: k

ThePhan: Randy says, "When I did the kickboxing class I glady did half of mine on my knees." In the next line he adds, "Er, pushups," but it is too late, I have already pictured him in a kickboxing class kneeling down trying to kick people but only really able to somehow kind of propel himself around in a circle by kicking.

Goosey: LOL LOL

ThePhan: Walking across the room on his knees while people are kicking and boxing each other above his head...

Goosey: Your brain is so quirky.

LaZorra: LOL LOL LOL

LaZorra: I wish I lived in Phan's brain.

LaZorra: It would be like Willy Wonkay.

Goosey: LOL LOL

LaZorra: Er. Wonka.

Goosey: "Wonky" is right!

We're Talking About Me

ThePhan: Heh. I'm always struck as I read through these by how self-centered I am in my conversation topics.

ThePhan: Not necessarily in a super bad way.

ThePhan: But like people will have a topic going and I'll just be like "HERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT ME NOW."

* ThePhan is not ignoring you all, she promises. :-)

LaZorra: LOL, I feel the same way, Phan.

Goosey: LOL I DO THE SAME THING

LaZorra: ...do you realize that's exactly what we all just did?

ThePhan: NO, I DO IT! WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ME!

Goosey: NO ME SHOT OP

ThePhan: We are awesome.

The Big Sink

ThePhan: So you know that old joke about, "You were supposed to be watching the baby/dog/kid!" "I did!" "But they're [insert something the baby/dog/kid isn't supposed to be doing]!" "Yes, and I've been watching them the whole time!"

ThePhan: My sister did a comic of that when she was about eight.

ThePhan: What forbidden deed was the child doing in her comic?

ThePhan: "Swimming in the big sink."

LaZorra: ...

ThePhan: I kept asking my sister if "the big sink" was code for something, like a pool or a bath tub.

ThePhan: Nope. It was apparently just a big sink.

LaZorra: LOL

ThePhan: In my sister's eight-year-old mind, some people just have giant sinks that you CAN swim in, but shouldn't.

LaZorra: Dude, my parents NEVER let me swim in the big sink.

LaZorra: Nor would they ever buy me a big salad.

Ticia: LOL

LaZorra: (They would, apparently, let me watch too much Seinfeld, though.)

ThePhan: Well, Seinfeld may have had sexual references, but at least there were no big sinks in that show.

ThePhan: That's where I would cross the line as a parent.

ThePhan: Er. Draw the line.

LaZorra: LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: I would cross the line and then taunt my kids that they couldn't!

ThePhan: This is why I would be a bad parent.

LaZorra: That would indeed be horrendous parenting, LOL.

LaZorra: "Guess what Mummy's watching? A show with BAD WORDS AND LOTS OF NUDITY."

LaZorra: "Come now, let me tuck you into bed and read you Snow White."

ThePhan: It would be even worse if I was watching it while actually in the big sink.

LaZorra: LOL

Ticia: HAHAHA

* Goosey comes back to the window and says "Uh, wow."

Maryam: You people rule.

LaZorra: Goosey: I bet Mormons don't even allow big sinks in their houses, do they?

Goosey: LOL

LaZorra: ;-)

Ticia: We had a big sink in our house, but we had to have it removed. And then we had to exorsize all the evil out of the house because of the residual evil left over from the big sink

Ticia: *exorcise

LaZorra: Exercise the evil out! One! Two! Three! Lift! Stretch! Feel the burn? That is the burn OF HELL LEAVING YOUR BODY.

* LaZorra would make a terrible exercise coach.

Ticia: LOL

LaZorra: ...also, I have no idea how one would have a big sink in one's body. That sounds extraordinarily uncomfortable.

Surprise Twist!

ThePhan: SETH STORY KIND OF RELATED

ThePhan: We were watching old episodes of Lamb-Chop. One of the riddle/joke things was that you take someone's hand and touch their palm and say, "There's the baby." Then you touch each one of their fingers naming relatives: "Mama says don't touch the baby. Daddy says don't touch the baby. Grandma says don't touch the baby." Etc., etc. Then at the end, you say, "Where's the baby?" and the other person touches their palm where the "baby" is. To which you respond, "HEY! DON'T TOUCH THE BABY!"

ThePhan: My younger siblings thought this was hilarious and went around trying to fool everyone with this. Even though most of us had either seen the thing already on the show, or had had someone else in the family do it to them.

ThePhan: Seth was about five, and decided to join in, but he thought the original version was boring.

ThePhan: So he comes up to me and starts it off right: "There's the baby. Mama says don't touch the baby. Daddy says don't touch the baby. Grandma says kill the baby. Grandpa says kill the grandma."

Maryam: LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: Then he burst into giggles and ran away.

Maryam: SURPRISE TWIST!

Randy: LOL LOL!

Randy: Seth rules!

* ThePhan was always amused when her siblings would add their own twist to things.

ThePhan: We have a home video where my at the time 6-year-old sister has a little plastic bag for fruit and is demonstrating how to make it into kind of a snake puppet.

ThePhan: My 4-year-old sister followed that up by taking the same little plastic bag and saying, "Have you ever wondered how you can make snakes named Satan?"

ThePhan: It was the exact same trick, but THIS time, the snake is named SATAN!

Maryam: LOL

Goosey: LOL LOL

Randy: SATAN SNAKES

INTERROBANG!

wintermute: LA MARYAMARINO!

Maryam: Part of that is my name.

wintermute: I know.

Maryam: The rest of it isn't.

Goosey: LOL

* ThePhan guesses that La Arino is Maryam's name.

* Maryam hits a buzzer. ThePhan loses and drops out of this round!

ThePhan: :-(

LaZorra: That isn't cool enough for Maryam.

LaZorra: She should be ?! so we can greet her with "INTERROBANG!"

Goosey: LOL

Randy: hehee

Maryam: Interrobang?

Maryam: I give you all permission to call me "INTERROBANG!"

wintermute: http://payplay.fm/disc/George%20Hrab/Interrobang

Maryam: Please do not keep that picture in mind when thinking of me.

* LaZorra dies laughing.

Randy: LOL LOL

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL

goldfishy: Oooh Maryam you're soooooo muscly!

goldfishy: Urgh sorry - I made myself feel dirty

LaZorra: MARYAM I LOVE YOU *throws panties because Maryam reallly seems to deed them*

Maryam: LOL LOL

Goosey: MARYAM IS A PANTY REALTOR

Glee

ThePhan: Tonight on Glee: They decide that there's apparently NOT ENOUGH SEX IN THEIR SONGS.

Goosey: O___O

ThePhan: *headdesk*

wintermute: They have sex in during their songs?

ThePhan: LOL

ThePhan: They come pretty close, sometimes...

Eyebrow Party Saga

A detail or two has been slightly altered because it includes personal details I figured I wouldn't include on the Internet for all to see. :-)

ThePhan: OK, my mind needs to wind down RIGHT NOW.

Goosey: TP: You okay hon?

* LaZorra clicks "log out" on Phan's brain.

Goosey: LOL

ThePhan: Goosey: Yeah. Just physically tired but can't sleep because my mind is going everywhere. Feeling general stress even though I'm not sure why.

Goosey: TP: Drink some water, then put the entire O Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack on repeat, turn the volume down to Don't Have To Pay Attention level, and close your eyes.

Goosey: If you can play the movie, even better.

Goosey: I did that for a whole week once when I had trouble sleeping. It was fantastic.

LaZorra: Huh, that's an interesting idea.

ThePhan: Goosey: Hehe. That would work better if that wasn't the type of music that sets me on edge. :-)

Goosey: The songs on that movie are comfy and gentle, and a teeny bit hypnotic.

* LaZorra HUGS Phan!

Goosey: Oh really, lol.

Goosey: Well, pick something you are comfortable with then.

LaZorra: Phan: Instead of that, I will come sit on the edge of your bed and sing through my nose at you.

Goosey: Yeah, but mindspin still isn't comfy.

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL WHAT

ThePhan: LZ: LOL LOL

LaZorra: I am a Phaaaaaaaaaaan of constant sooooorrroooooooooow

ThePhan: PLEASE do that.

Goosey: LOL LOL

LaZorra: My mind, she waaaaaaaaaanders all day loooooooooong

LaZorra: And so I cooooooome here into RinkChaaaaaat

LaZorra: To hear LaZoooooooooorra sing a sooong

ThePhan: If for no other reason than that it would finally compensate for the weird people who hang out in my dorm.

ThePhan: :-P

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL

LaZorra: LOL LOL

LaZorra: That is the best reason EVER to invite friends over.

ThePhan: I am LOSING the Competition of Weird Friends Who Make Life Awkward!

Goosey: It's kept me calm all week.

LaZorra: WHAT

ThePhan: My friends are all too cool and awesome!

Goosey: Phan: That's only because we are all online and not THERE

LaZorra: You have the weirdest, most awkward friends ever!!! Just look at us!

ThePhan: LOL LOL

Goosey: I could come over and we can have an eyebrow party!

ThePhan: RINKUNION IN MY DORM ROOM

LaZorra: LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: RIGHT NOW

LaZorra: EYEBROW PARTY

ThePhan: I'll show THEM what weird friends look like.

Goosey: Then sit around and fill 20 solid minutes saying "cupcake" in different accents

* LaZorra thinks RU in a dorm room is the RC equivalent of fitting people in a Volkswagen.

ThePhan: LOL

LaZorra: Goosey: This sounds like the best party ever.

ThePhan: How many elephants can you fit in an RU? None, they're all still in the VW!

.

.

.

Goosey: I'm actually kind of proud of myself. I feel like I rarely inspire any bursts of weirdness, although I usually participate. This was fun.

LaZorra: Now I've got Blanche Devereaux in my head saying, "cuhpcahyke?" in an attempt to entice men.

Goosey: LOLLOL

LaZorra: HOORAY GOOSEY IS WEIRD

ThePhan: LOL LOL

ThePhan: YAY GOOSEY

Goosey: LOL LOL

ThePhan: Goosey can be part of the scare-the-roommate club now!

LaZorra: w00t!

* ThePhan is cracking up at the image in her mind...

Goosey: LOL Which ONE?

ThePhan: OK:

ThePhan: My bed is at a right angle to my roomie's bed right now, so if she decides not to look at her wall, she's looking at me, pretty much.

Goosey: k

ThePhan: So I'm imagining me sitting on the bed, with LZ at the foot of it crooning to me.

Goosey: Hehehehehe

ThePhan: And Goosey walks over, but faces my roomie and starts moving her eyebrows up and down madly.

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL

LaZorra: *snerk*

Goosey: This is like some insane nightmare, lol.

ThePhan: Then we all start going, "Cupcake! Coopkeck? Cuhpcahyke! Cayupkayak!"

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL LOL

* LaZorra dies.

ThePhan: And then you leave and I fall peacefully asleep.

LaZorra: Goosey, you and I are roadtripping to Phan right now.

LaZorra: I will meet you there.

Goosey: OKAY

ThePhan: ...While the roomie probably gets no sleep, wondering who these people were and if they're going to come back into her room again.

LaZorra: OPERATION EYEBROW PARTY

ThePhan: LOL LOL

Goosey: Seriiously. If we EVER have a slumber party together, we MUST FILM IT.

Goosey: I know your faces, so I can totally imagine us panning the camera, showing each face in turn as we wiggle our eyebrows and say "cuhpcahyke!!!"

* ThePhan has not helped matters by reading "OPERATION EYEBROW PANTY"

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL LOL

* LaZorra snorts so hard she almost chokes.

LaZorra: WORST. LINGERIE. EVER.

ThePhan: LOL LOL LOL

LaZorra: I would take Sam's chicken panties over those.

* ThePhan gets to work on Operation Eyebrow Panty, the new line of RinkChat lingerie.

Goosey: LOL LOL

ThePhan: We will make SO MUCH MONEY.

* LaZorra would so love for a n00b to come in right now.

ThePhan: LOL

Goosey: I would for Sam to deidle right now.

ThePhan: They would come in and say, "Where can I buy these marvelous Operation Eyebrow Panties?"

LaZorra: SAM YOU ARE MISSING ALL OF THE PANTYLICIOUS EYEBROW CROONING

* LaZorra decides to memo that to him for the sheer "what the hell" factor that it will likely induce out of context.

ThePhan: LOL LOL

ThePhan: "Oh, the pantyliciousness you missed!"

LaZorra: hahaha

Goosey: LOL LOL Good thing I am transcribing this, hehehe.

LaZorra: What I want to know is how does one harvest eyebrows to make panties from them?

LaZorra: It must be a very arduous process.

ThePhan: Oh gosh.

ThePhan: Panties made out of human hair do not sound...pleasant.

Goosey: Oh, I just imagined little false eybrows in pairs, like flocks of birds, all over the panties.

LaZorra: LOL

ThePhan: OH GOSH

* LaZorra does NOT have panties made out of flocks of birds, and isn't quite sure what Goosey is wearing...

Goosey: Alternatively: tiny lacy panties to attach to one's eyebrows.

LaZorra: Goosey: LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: Now all I can picture is that horrible fake hair we made mustaches and beards out of in makeup class last year.

LaZorra: LOL

LaZorra: BEARDED PHAN

ThePhan: And using spirit gum to attach it all over the, er, panty area.

ThePhan: IT IS THE MOST AWFUL THOUGHT EVER

LaZorra: TP: EW EW EW

Goosey: Phan: OWIE

ThePhan: You call it "Operation Eyebrow Panties" because it takes an operation to attach them to you.

Goosey: muuuhhhh

LaZorra: This sounds like a bad horror flick in which a mad beautician tortures her customers.

ThePhan: Fortunately, there are no matches yet for "Operation Eyebrow Panties" on IMDb.

LaZorra: PHEW

LaZorra: Man. I was going to spend tonight crunching census data.

LaZorra: My boss is going to be peeved tomorrow when I walk in and tell him I was seriously discussing facial lingerie instead.

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: He may just think you have a bizarre fetish.

LaZorra: BAHAHA

Goosey: Do not google that pair of words, btw. Eep.

ThePhan: OH MAN THERE'S A TEENAGE BOOK WITH FACIAL LINGERIE KIND OF

ThePhan: One of my favorite book series is a British one called the Georgia Nicolson series. In one of the books, she talks about how she hates how big her nose is and jokes about it needing its own support.

Goosey: ???

Goosey: LOL

ThePhan: She's alone in her room upstairs and is bored, so she takes out a pair of panties from her dresser and drapes them over her ears to create a sort of nose hammock.

LaZorra: LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

ThePhan: A few minutes later, a bunch of guys she knows from school come by her house and she leans out the window and yells for them to go away. They yell back and forth for awhile before she realizes she's still wearing her nose bra.

Goosey: OH NO LOL LOL LOL LOL

LaZorra: That's wonderful.

LaZorra: I can't think of a better way to scare off a group of teenage boys.

Goosey: LOL

ThePhan: This is the way to fight off unwanted male attention.

Cuupcayk

Goosey: LOL Also, I've just decided that an Alabama accent is the pleasantest one to hear saying the word "cupcake"

Randy: :-.

ThePhan: LOL LOL

* Goosey is EASILY AMUSED right now

wintermute: What is the most pleasant accent to say "azimuth"?

* Sentynel rips pieces of paper in front of Goosey

Goosey: LOL LOL

* ThePhan pictures Goosey with a line-up of guys, and as she passes in front of each, they say "cupcake" and she wrinkles her nose and shakes her head at them until she gets to Alabama.

Goosey: LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL Randy just asked me in pm if I'm high.

Randy: hehe!

Goosey: NO I am not.

.

Goosey: cuupcayk

Goosey: caiyk

Goosey: cuppcaiyk

Goosey: *cuupcaiyk

Online Hackers

LaZorra: One of my multimedia folks just wrote the headline 'ASU students fight to keep online hackers out of their personal accounts'

LaZorra: As opposed to...offline hackers?

LaZorra: OH NOES MY SAMMICH IS BEING HACKED

My Abusive Mother Needs Cupcakes!

Ticia: LOL. The free dozen cupcake question today is "Why do you deserve free cupcakes?" Someone answered "i reallllllllllllllllllllllly want free cupcakes to share with my hard working dad my mom who always hurts my brother who is in the army and my other brother who is graduating "

Ticia: Which makes it seems like her mother is beating her brother.

Goosey: LOL

Goosey: "MY ABUSIVE MOTHER NEEDS CUPCAKES"

Ticia: Punctuation is important!

Goof Shoppiing

* Sentynel goes to buy goof!

Sentynel: er

* Sentynel *goes to buy food!

* Sentynel is apparently taking LaZ shoppiing with him.

Sentynel: *shopping

Atrophy

Nyperold: The transcriptions on http://garfield.nfshost.com/ can be somewhat amusing themselves.

Nyperold: In one strip, Garfield laments that "Everybody has a trophy but me"; in the transcript, it came out "Everybody has atrophy but me".

Fast Sunday

Goosey: Orange-beef stir fry. Yum yum yum.

Ticia: Oh, that's not as yummy as garlic bread. Oh well, guess I don't want to live by you anymore.

Ticia: :-D

Goosey: It is too as yummy, especially on a Fast Sunday.

goldfishy: What's so fast about Sunday?

LaZorra: Are you kidding? Sundays go by like *snap*

Goosey: LOL

Ticia: LOL

ThePhan: LZ JUST MADE MY SUNDAY DISAPPEAR

RU Girls

Sam: I just got an email from Maryam.

Sam: She says, quote, "Subject: \330\257\330\263\330\252\332\257\330\247\331\207 \331\210\330\261\330\262\330\264\331\212 \330\252\331\210\330\252\330\247\331\204 \331\203\330\261 \330\247\330\261\330\254\331\212\331\206\330\247\331\204"

Sam: Thanks, Maryam!

Sam: I didn't know your email address has changed to titinaz@yahoo.com, so I'm glad for that, too.

Maryam: Rats, I forgot to use my cover identity.

Sam: LOL. Among the other spam I have this morning are a few letters with the subject line "ru girls".

Sam: Of all dubious online services, this is surely the most depraved.

Maryam: Catch RU girls UNCENSORED as they sit around sedately and talk about Sinbad's pectorals!

Sam: LOL LOL

Sam: Join now, and you'll hear LIVE RU GIRLS shouting "DOG!" at each other!

Maryam: Don't miss the HOT HOT HOT bottle game!

Sam: Join now and receive an official RU GIRLS switch-microwave ABSOLUTELY FREE.

Maryam: Order within the next 30 minutes and receive the RU GIRLS CLIMBING ON THINGS special as a free gift!

Sam: LOL.

Sam: We rule.

English Subtitles

ThePhan: This movie is very weirdly subtitled.

ThePhan: It switches back and forth between multiple languages, so I have the English subtitles on.

Maryam: "Yah-hah, evil spider woman!"?

ThePhan: When they're speaking in other languages, the subtitles are fine.

ThePhan: But when the characters speak in English, the subtitles get all weird.

ThePhan: So it goes from, "I'll grab the first man I see and smash his face in!" to "Is my stuff! If you don't satisfied, go home."

It Is Grishny

(Since "Goosey" and "Grishny" are sometimes hard to tell apart in chat, Goosey had inserted some random capitalization into her name.)

LaZorra has entered.

GooSeY: LAZORRA

LaZorra: Goo...uh...

* GooSeY HUGS LaZorra!

* LaZorra HUGS the Goosey-like person!

GooSeY: IT IS GRISHNY

GooSeY: S FAULT

LaZorra: IT IS GRISHNY??

Grishny: Stop saying GRISHNY or it will cease to be a word!

Grishny: Then you'll have to call me squaw.

Everyone Be Funny!

ThePhan: Wow. So far, in February and March of this year, I've posted almost as many quotes on the Rinkie blog as I did ALL of last year.

GooSeY: Nice! Way to go!

Ticia: We just got funnier, that's all.

ThePhan: That's probably it.

Sentynel: I hope you'll keep this growth rate up.

Sentynel: You should post about 400 items this year.

Sentynel: And 2,400 next year.

ThePhan: LOL

ThePhan: Well, that's all up to you guys, I guess.

Sentynel: QUICK

Sentynel: EVERYONE BE FUNNY

Sentynel: We need to average being funny at least once per day for the rest of this year.

Sentynel: Next year could be trickier, as we'll need to be funny six times a day.

Ppppp99Pp9p9

Goosey: PPppppPPPpPpPpppPPPpppp

Goosey: PPp999PPPpppp9pPp99ppPP

Randy: Goosey: uh, what?

* Goosey is speaking in tongues.

Let the Ant Speak

* Goosey rants.
ThePhan: Wait, this Idol girl's name is spelled "Ta-Tynisa"? Well, that's just silly.
ThePhan: Sorry, Goosey, I didn't mean to interrupt your ant.
ThePhan: Er. Your rant.
ThePhan: :-)
Randy: hehe
Goosey: TICIA HUSH MY ANT IS NOT DONE TALKING
goldfishy: Dude, let the ant speak!
* goldfishy gives it a megaphone
Goosey: Hehehe.
Randy: "Knock knock" "Who's there?" "Interrupting Ant!" "Interrupting An" *Bites you*

Most Intrusive

ThePhan: Heh. So I'm making a list of disciplinary actions for the classroom, going from nonintrusive responses like nonverbal signals, to severe responses like conferences with the parents.

ThePhan: The second category is labeled "More intrusive options." I typed "Most intrusive options."

ThePhan: What are the MOST INTRUSIVE WAYS I can think of to correct a misbehaving student? I have a feeling that will not get me a good grade on the paper.

ThePhan: Nor a teaching license.

Sentynel: Most intrusive ways: bursting into the classroom in a gorilla suit carrying a machete, screaming that the student's mother was a hamster and his father smelt of elderberries.

Learning to Embrace Phan

ThePhan: Before I sleep: a church friend posted on Facebook, "We must learn to embrace pain," but I somehow read it as "We must learn to embrace Pan."

Sentynel: I read the misreading as "We must learn to embrace Phan".

ThePhan: I couldn't figure out why one of my Christian friends was advocating worship of the Greek god of shepherds.

ThePhan: Sent: LOL LOL

ThePhan: LEARN TO EMBRACE ME!

* Sentynel HUGS Phan!

Sentynel: How am I doing?

* 10Kan HUGS ThePhan!

goldfishy: I already embraced Phan all the way up there - do I win?

ThePhan: Everyone who hugged me gets an A!

Grishny: I think Sam should pore over all the chat archives ever to see who was the first person ever to /hug ThePhan, and that's who wins.

ThePhan: Grishny: LOL

ThePhan: It'll probably end up being someone who hasn't been in chat for ages.

Sentynel: Alternatively, the person who hugged her the soonest after meeting her. Because they'd be the quickest learner.

goldfishy: Oh yeah that's a good one

ThePhan: Sent: Oh, good point.

goldfishy: mind you - you would have to differentiate between a hug initiated by Phan and one initiated by the person because if they were just responding it's not learnt yet is it?

ThePhan: Right.

Grishny: It'll be like the Oscars; there can be multiple awards for different categories of embracing ThePHan.

Grishny: "And the award for Quickest to /hug ThePhan Without Having Been First /hugged by ThePhan goes to..."

10Kan: If I've asked someone to give Phan a hug, am I up for Best Director?

Grishny: Sure, why not?

goldfishy: Oh and you could have like a booby prize for the person with the least returned hugs

LAX

* LaZorra high-fives goldie!

goldfishy: hahahah I just tried /highfive LAx

goldfishy: It didn't work :p

* goldfishy high-fives LaZ

Sentynel: You couldn't high five Los Angeles International Airport?

goldfishy: !!

Kysle: High fiving a city would be impressive.

goldfishy: Apparently now - Rink frowns upon the highfiving of airports

goldfishy: *not

Nyperold: Airport security might find it suspicious.

* Sentynel tries to high-five an airport and gets run over by a landing 747

William Shatner Ruins Everything

goldfishy: I want to hug the steam train!

LaZorra: To envelope the steam train?

goldfishy: YES!

goldfishy: NO!

goldfishy: SHATNER MUST NOT RUIN STEAM TRAINS!

LaZorra: LOL

[RinkChat] The chat room's topic has been changed to 'WILLIAM SHATNER RUINS EVERYTHING' by LaZorra.

Sentynel: William Shatner is coming to RinkChat, why is he coming to RinkChat...

LaZorra: !!!

goldfishy: Hee!

LaZorra: TO MAKE LOVE TO RINKCHAT

goldfishy: TO STEAL SAM'S DRESS!

Nyperold: Because it's there?

* LaZorra dies.

.

.

.

* wintermute read the topic as "William Shatner runs everything"

Sentynel: That would be a CRAZY world.

goldfishy: That would be terrifying

LaZorra: LOL LOL

Sentynel: William Shatner is running the Universe, why is he running the Universe?

Sentynel: Although on second thoughts, that does explain quantum mechanics.

Quacking

* LaZorra is shaking trying not to laugh out loud at work.

Sentynel: I really want video of LaZ quacking in her chair from suppressed laughter.

Sentynel: Er.

Sentynel: Quaking.

Sam: I want a video of her quacking.

iwpg: LOL LOL LOL

Nyperold: With the duck hat?

Michael Jackson

ThePhan: Dear IMDb: How is The Princess Diaries a thriller?

goldfishy: Oh em geeee! Phan! Did you not find the drama about her hair like, TOTALLY thrilling?

Goosey: Phan: WHA?

LaZorra: TP: Michael Jackson was in that?

ThePhan: LZ: LOL

ThePhan: I would accept a Michael Jackson appearance as a legitimate reason.

goldfishy: I would be tagging it as a horror if Michael Jackson had appeared in tit - I never found him thrilling

goldfishy: More terrifying

Sentynel: If he'd appeared where?

goldfishy: hehehehehehe

goldfishy: ummmm

LaZorra: IN YOUR BEDROOM

LaZorra: AT NIGHT

LaZorra: IN A NEGLIGEE

Sentynel: ...

* Sentynel has nightmares now.

goldfishy: ohohohoh! this could be like a really gross version of like jesus on toast - michael jackson on boob! it could be like a birth mark or a bruise!

* goldfishy shudders

goldfishy: I'd have the boob cut off I think

* LaZorra nearly spits out her lunch laughing.

goldfishy: Well at least the bit with him on *shudders more*

goldfishy: Also, Michael Jackson, at night, in your bedroom, in a negligee sounds like a REALLY dodgy version of Cluedo

Polite Darth Vader

Randy: My friend's kid said something like "Darth Vader is NOT a good guy. He doesn't say 'please' or 'thank you'"

ThePhan: LOL

Randy: She's 4 though.

Revan: That is awesome.

Sentynel: "I find your lack of faith disturbing... thank you."

Randy: I wrote: Excuse me, Princess Leia, would it be too much to ask if you could please tell us the location of the secret Rebel base? I promise we won't blow it up with our gigantic laser here."

Goosey: LOL

Revan: Politely asking Leia what happened to the plans the Rebels sent her, then helping a redshirt onto his feet?

Revan: I can't think of an opposite for using Force Choke on somebody. Force Heimlich Maneuver?

Goosey: LOL

Revan: I guess the first time, he just physically lifted the guy into the air by his throat.

Sentynel: Clearly the guy's gotten his uniform caught on a peg or something in the fighting, and Vader helps him down.

* Maryam imagines Vader gently setting him on the ground, adjusting his lapels and dusting him off.

Randy: hehehe

Maryam: And then awkwardly trying to make small talk with him as a boss who doesn't know his underlings. "Sooo... how's the family?"

Emergency Pepsi Thongs

Sam: I put an Emergency Pepsi in the freezer. It needs to hurry up and get cold.

Grishny: Why why why is there a thong picture in the Google image search results for "emergency pepsi?"

ThePhan: Uh.

Sam: Sometimes an Emergency Pepsi is just the thong you need.

Goosey: LOL

* ThePhan hopes Emergency Pepsi does not turn into a thong when frozen.

Grishny: And also why do I feel compelled to do a Google image search every time anybody uses any kind of phrase that sounds even remotely entertaining or unusual?

* Grishny struggles successfully against the urge to search the phrase "just the thong you need"

10Kan: Does the thong have a bottle opener sewn in?

Nyperold: Maybe someone typoed "It's the real thing"?

LaZorra has left.

Sam: This talk of thongs offended LaZorra.

10Kan: Come back, LaZorra! We can talk about bras too!

Bluuuuhhhh

* Maryam does dishes bluuuuhhhh

Maryam is away.

Goosey: YAY FOR DOING DISHES!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!!

Grishny: bluuuuhhh she says. Does that mean she's crying?

ThePhan: Maybe she is washing the dishes in her own tears.

ThePhan: That would be intense.

Sam: Maryam is HARDCORE.

Goosey: LOL

10Kan: Or she was cut off because she's licking them clean?

Goosey: LOL

Maryam: LOL you guys are funny.

Malware

ThePhan: MY COOKIES WENT EVERYWHERE

Grishny: ThePhan is MALWARE?

* Grishny runs Spybot to try to get rid of ThePhan

ThePhan has left.

Grishny: Whew. That was close.

Grishny: ThePhan was seriously impacting my PC's performance.

ThePhan has entered.

Grishny: Yikes! It's persistant!

* ThePhan has rounded up the cookies.

Grishny: Oh, well in that case.

Dave Latte

LaZorra: OKAY I REALLY AM GOING TO GET A LATTE NOW

Dave has entered.

* LaZorra makes a Dave latte.

* LaZorra is basically drinking liquid bricks and smashed insects.

PM Fail

10Kan: Goosey: Twilight's social phenomenon is easily the scariest vampire-related thing ever.

Goosey: Seriously.

10Kan: Immortal monsters preying on humans? Ehh. Humans analogizing this as an ideal relationship? Terrifying.

Sentynel: And as soon as I try and take notes, it's all restraining order this, prosecution that.

Sentynel: Wait, what?

LaZorra: Um...

LaZorra: PM FAIL

Goosey: Huh?

Grishny: The Prime Minister has failed.

LaZorra: gooooordooooon bwoooooown

New Oscar Format

(About the Oscars)

Sam: I think they should vote off the nominees one by one throughout the evening.

Sam: "Annette Bening, you are NOT the Best Actress. Goodbye."

Stephen: Sam: WHOA! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME

Dave: I would so watch that.

Dave: Especially if the host spent the entire time insulting everybody.

Dave: This is why I think RIcky Gervais should host every awards show ever.

Benedict Cumberbatch Doll

ThePhan: Now that the Sherlock TV show exists, whenever I see Robert Downey, Jr. and Jude Law together, all I can think is, "Pfffft. Amateurs."

Henry: ThePhan: My girlfriend made this really, really, really awesome handmade Benedict Cumberbatch doll.

ThePhan: Henry: WAAAAAAAAAAAANT

ThePhan: But stealing it from her and giving it to me would make you a terrible boyfriend, so don't do it.

Henry: She actually made it as a gift for her friend, so yeah, two levels of terrible.

Snarling Exotically

(About Twilight)

ThePhan: I eventually want to film one of the talky scenes from the book with the actors doing EXACTLY what Meyer says her characters are doing. Because I'm pretty sure she just picks random words that can mean "said" and throws in adverbs and descriptions of gestures at random.

Sam: TP: UGH.

Sam: JUST SAY "SAID".

ThePhan: Her characters carry on calm discussions while they swoon and flail and their eyes flame right before they whisper tearfully and right after they snarl exotically.

Sam: LOL LOL LOL

Dave: Twighlight damages brains.

* Sam laughs, snarling exotically.

WEREWOFL

catldr: "werewofl"

Sam: That typo sounds like a new acronym for conveying levity. WEREWOFL!!!!

NessaChan: hehe

NessaChan: Writhing enthusiastically rolling everywhere while on floor laughing

ThePhan: We're Eating Ramen and Eating Watermelon On the Floor Laughing!

NessaChan: lol.

ThePhan: Nessa's makes more sense. Mine sounds messy.

Red Carpet Ranting

(Watching the red carpet Oscar stuff.)

Sam: WHO CARES ABOUT THE DAMN CLOTHES

NessaChan: I do..

Mia: You know you care, Sam.

NessaChan: lol.

Sentynel: He's just jealous 'cos he doesn't look as good in a dress.

ThePhan: Does Captain Kirk look better in the dress?

Sentynel: Only if it's a warp dress.

ThePhan: Because maybe he should share.

Sam: I will not share.

Dealing With Neighbors

Maryam: Ok, so I need a strategy for dealing with my stupid rude poophead of a neighbor.

Goosey: What is theneighbor doing?

Maryam: Letting their dogs run over into our backyard despite the many times I've asked them not to and complained when they did so.

Grishny: First solution that doesn't involve name-calling: Shoot the dogs.

Grishny: Second solution: Shoot the neighbors.

Grishny: Third solution: fence?

Grishny: Fourth solution: Fencing! (Fence the dogs when they try to come into your yard)

Grishny: Fifth solution: get bigger, meaner dogs that will eat the neighbor's dogs

20! Crunches

We're all guessing how many repetitions of various exercises Goosey will be doing.

Goosey: Okay, how many crunches?

Randy: LOL

Randy: 15!

Goosey: Any other guesses? Give me a number to shoot for! :D

Sentynel: 20!

Sentynel: That's an excited 20, by the way. Not 20 factorial.

Goosey: LOL

Goosey: THANK YOU

Goosey: Hehehe.

Sentynel: 2.43290201 × 10^18 crunches might take you a while.

However...

ThePhan: The plot summary for this Big Bang Theory episode says, "Penny asks Leonard to lie to her father (Keith Carradine); Howard, Raj and Bernadette pull an all-nighter at a telescope."

ThePhan: I read it about six times and kept reading "Howard" as "However."

Maryam: I just did that!

ThePhan: "What does THAT have to do with anything?!"

Tears and Tears

goldfishy: Ewww I just realised that tears and tears are the same spelling

goldfishy: You really don't want the wrong one down your face

Beaver Fever

goldfishy: If I was a producer person I would make a film called "Beaver Fever" - a documentary about the awesomeness of beavers - how cool they are cutting down trees and all that - and then I would have released it like right now so that people in cinemas could "deliberately" misshear the stupid screaming fangirls wanting to go see that stupid kid and they'd find themselves watching a beaver documentary instead

Enough Grief For You

ThePhan: Heh. FB friend posts, "STUPID WINTER WEATHER NOW I CAN'T GO HOME TOMORROW!!!"

ThePhan: Her friend responds, "DISLIKE!! Did you like the I am number four movie last weekend?"

Goosey: ??

Ticia: LOL

ThePhan: Enough grief for you. Time to talk about MOVIES!

Persecution

Ticia: http://www.popeater.com/2011/02/24/deadliest-catch-death/ viewers called police after recognizing Warner on television, identifying him as a suspect in the robberies. Warner was picked up at a traffic stop in Illinois and extradited to his native Oregon for persecution.

Ticia: I think they mean prosecution. Heh

10Kan: Ticia: That, or there's a really strong editorial slant.

BRING

LaZorra: Goosey: Whoa, you have crazy dreams.

LaZorra: I dreamed about Twitter and paper plates last night.

Goosey: LaZ: My head is a strange, strange wonderland.

Goosey: BRING

Goosey: *BORING

* LaZorra BRINGS

* Goosey makes telephone noises.

* LaZorra answers Goosey.

LaZorra: Hello? Hello?

Bunnies

Randy: There was an old theater in Vegas called the Huntington. It was an art deco styled movie theater, then shut down and became a place for bums.

Randy: Some people reopened it as a concert venue, and it was pretty cool. The ceiling broke before a show, but they fixed it.

Randy: Then it closed again, and once again became a haven for bums

* LaZorra reads, "Then it closed again, and became a haven for bunnies."

Randy: LOL

Randy: That would have been a better ending

AsTimeGoesByBot

Goosey: PLAY IT AGAIN

Nyperold: Play "As Time Goes By". ;-)

ThePhan: AsTimeGoesByBot.

Randy: LOL

ThePhan: AsTimeGoesByBot asks: On what can you rely?

Cyclical

LaZorra: Oh my goodness. Too funny: Qaddafi's fashion statements through the years: http://blogs.villagevoice.com/runninscared/2011/02/muammar_gaddafi.php

Sentynel: That guy got a lot less funny when he started bombing protesters.

LaZorra: He's a crazy dictator. Maybe it

LaZorra: *it's my cyclical side speaking, but I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

Goosey: LOL

Sentynel: Your cyclical side?

Goosey: Sent: Yes, she can pedal a bike with only ONE LEG.

ThePhan: Nothing surprises me once my cyclical side takes over.

LaZorra: er

* ThePhan cycles and is not surprised.

* Sentynel has visions of LaZ trying to sit still on an office chair, while one side of her relentlessly spins it around

LaZorra: AS A CYCLIST THE UNREST IN THE MIDDLE EAST DOES NOT SURPRISE ME

Ticia's Command

* Ticia HUGS and SQUEEZES and TURN IN A CIRCLE WHILE HOLDING ONTO Mia!

Ticia: Hehe

Grishny: Are you... telling us to do this?

Goosey: LOL LOL

Ticia: *S

* Grishny TURN IN A CIRCLE WHILE HOLDING ONTO Mia. Grishny feels weird doing this.

Hairbrush

Goosey: I have no idea where my hairbrush is . . .

ThePhan: Bob gave it to the peach, 'cause he's got hair.

10Kan: LOL

* 10Kan was waiting for that.

Boob Rainbows

* TalkingDog throws confetti.

* LaZorra eats the confetti!

* ThePhan high fives LaZorra.

ThePhan: Erm.

* ThePhan takes that high five back.

* LaZorra eats the high-five!

LaZorra: aww

ThePhan: No positive reinforcement for eating bits of paper.

LaZorra: Paper?!

LaZorra: I thought they were GLITTER.

LaZorra: I thought I was going to be like a unicorn and boob rainbows.

* TalkingDog is confused.

ThePhan: Boob rainbows?

ThePhan: And people thought Katy Perry's boob fireworks were weird...

LaZorra: ooer

LaZorra: *poop

Introvert Communication

ThePhan: Also, in searching for stuff about introverts and small group learning, I found a forum which was horribly anti-introvert and made me go, "Uh...?!"

* ThePhan is writing a blog about it. :-)

ThePhan: Erm. After my "introverts can TOO communicate" section, I should probably not have the sentence "Getting to teach people acting is something I'm extremely passion enough."

God's Love Is Like Flat Flour Cakes

LaZorra: I think one of my friends has lost it. "Sometimes the Grace of God can be like a tortilla. The bigger dogs fight over it and try to chew down for us, BUT in reality it’s the little wimpy dog finds it and runs off with it to share with his friends! :)"

LaZorra: ...

Gahalyn: That doesn't make syntactical sense, much less theological.

LaZorra: GOD'S LOVE IS LIKE FLAT FLOUR CAKES

Gahalyn: I'm all about the metaphores if they actually make sense

LaZorra: Gaha: I can't even begin to figure out what he means.

LaZorra: I think he must have gotten a contact high off of someone.

Gahalyn: LOL

LaZorra: "Or is the Grace of God like the tortilla a nice friendly person tries to give to a sorrowful stray pup, with the intention of giving it more? The pup never trusts, and is so hesitant to take what is being offered."

LaZorra: DUDE SERIOUSLY WHAT ARE YOU SMOKING

Gahalyn: Ahaha.

ThePhan: The heck?

LaZorra: I have NO idea.

ThePhan: I'm pretty sure big dogs don't try to chew down on tortillas for me.

LaZorra: This guy sometimes posts really insightful stoof, too.

LaZorra: er. *stuff

ThePhan: Stoof?

LaZorra: STOOF

LaZorra: Single Tortillas Of Omniscient Father

LaZorra: BAHAHA."There is so much to God’s grace- don’t be satisfied with the single tortilla!"

ThePhan: That sounds like a bizarre monastical order.

LaZorra: I want a whole BURRITO of God's love.

ThePhan: Er, monastic.

LaZorra: monastical = musical monastic order

LaZorra: I wonder if God's love is like beans. You know, sometimes they're small, but after a while you can feel them inside of you. :-.

* ThePhan desperately wants to be a singing monk of the Single Tortillas Of Omniscient Father.

LaZorra: TOPICBOT

Gahalyn: God's love is like beans because sometimes they fill you up so much you have gas?

* TalkingDog needs hugs and probably puppies right now...

* LaZorra is cracking up so hard right now.

LaZorra: TD: God's love is like a puppy, because it brings you tortillas.

* LaZorra HUGS TD!

ThePhan: LOL

* TalkingDog HUGS LaZ!

Gahalyn: God's love is like the Big Bang, because it's totally inexplicable and also big.

ThePhan: Thou shalt honor thy father and mother, that God may bring thee tortillas. Thou shalt make burritos and prosper.

LaZorra: LOL LOL, he closes it with, "No offense whatever to any pastoral people nor Mexicans tagged in this, as I have learned much from you!!! ;)"

Gahalyn: WHAT no.

Gahalyn: Seriously?

LaZorra: I HOPE I HAVE NOT OFFENDED YOUR ENTIRE CULTURE BY LIKENING GOD'S LOVE TO A PORTION OF YOUR CULTURE

ThePhan: I think I'd be more offended by the implication that tortillas are apparently only eaten by dogs.

* TalkingDog has no tortillas.

Gahalyn: Offending pastoral people and Mexicans isn't okay but if you offend a Mexican pastoral person you're totally good to go.

LaZorra: TD: I could mail you some tamales...

* Gahalyn is trying to figure out how tortillas are like the Big Bang.

LaZorra: Sam should just TopicBot this entire conversation.

TalkingDog: I think there are tortilla chips, though.

LaZorra: TD: Oooh.

LaZorra: Tortilla chips are like God's love, because sometimes God needs something to scoop the salsa with.

Gahalyn: Tortilla chips and warm salsa is good but it's even better to add a slice of American cheese. No offense to Americans.

[RinkChat] The chat room's topic has been changed to 'Once I ate an offended bug.' by Gahalyn.

LaZorra: LOL LOL

Kysle: Gaha: It was offended *before* you ate it?

Gahalyn: Yes.

Gahalyn: I ate it so it wouldn't be offended.

ThePhan: BEST SOLUTION EVER

Kysle: Huh. How bout that.

ThePhan: Eat people who are offended.

Kysle: It's a dog eat dog world out there, eh?

Gahalyn: No. It's really more of a dog eat tortilla world.

ThePhan: LOL

ThePhan: Yes, it is.

ThePhan: Dogs eat tortillas, humans eat offended bugs. That's life.

Metaness

ThePhan: OK, that's the last of the quotes for today.

Goosey: Yay! *reads*

LaZorra: PHAN LINK MEEEE

ThePhan: LZ: http://rinkquotes.blogspot.com

Randy: That sounds like something from a Vietnamese menu

Goosey: Mm, I love me a bowl of phan link meee.

Randy: With peanut sauce

ThePhan: Please do not eat me and links.

Goosey: You need to quote this on the blog now.

ThePhan: Hehe

ThePhan: It will get there!

Goosey: It's so meta.

Facebook Interview

LaZorra: Hey, I could work for Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/careers/depart...communications&req=126609114078862

Sam: Don't mistakenly call it "faceboob" during the job interview.

Momly Liface Countdown

Ticia: Don, if you don't leave this chat room, I'm going to have to kick you out.

Ticia: 1

Ticia: 2

Ticia: 3

[RinkChat] User Don has been kicked from the room by Ticia.

Don has left.

Ticia: Hehe

Ticia: I counted to three.

Sam: That should have been a Liface countdown.

Goosey: LOL

Sam: You need to convert the Momly count to a Liface countdown. "You get down here THIS INSTANT! 5..."

Sam: 4...

Sam: Thirty-three...

Sam: 2...

Sam: 2...

Sam: 1...

Sam: ...and then the kid immediately obeys, because you don't want to remain inactive when Mom reaches "3."

Crappe Diem

LaZorra: CRAPPE DIEM

LaZorra: SEIZE THE CRAP

Gahalyn: Aww poo

Gahalyn: Er, no pun intended

Visit to Gaha

Gahalyn: EVERYBODY COME VISIT ME

Gahalyn: ALL AT ONCE

Goosey: OKAY

Gahalyn: YAY!

ThePhan: I WISH

* Randy teleports like Nightcrawler

Gahalyn: We would have to do it in a time that is not now because now it is so freaking freezing cold.

Gahalyn: You would all die.

Gahalyn: And that would be v. v. sad.

* ThePhan does not want the Gaha RU to be a trap to kill us.

Gahalyn: MM is fond of saying "It's a trap!" in the Calamari-dude's voice.

Goosey: LOL

Randy: LOL

Gahalyn: He would say that right before all of you died.

Gahalyn: Then I would make you all come to life again with the POWER OF MY MIND

Randy: It would be some great words to hear before dying. I'd be all "haha! Just like the guy on Star.."

Literallying

ThePhan: Hrm. I wanted to type "literally falling" but kept typing "literallying fall." I knew it didn't look right but couldn't figure out where I'd gone wrong.

Randy: LOL

* Randy is literallying laugh

SHOT OP

LaZorra: Number of Python scripts written: 0

LaZorra: Number of mother's talked to on the phone: 1

LaZorra: *-'

Sentynel: Your mother's what?

Sentynel: Beat.

LaZorra: SHOT OP

ThePhan: LZ shot me.

* ThePhan is a shot op.

ThePhan: :-(

LaZorra: I SHOT A PHAN IN PHOENIX JUST FOR STEALING MY WIFI

goldfishy: I shot the op, but I did not shoot the admin

The King's Speech

(Talking about The King's Speech)

wintermute: Colin Firth talks about how the screenwriter was inspired to make the movie by his own stutter.

wintermute: And the Queen Mother (as she was when he started) asked him not to produce it until after she died.

wintermute: So, yeah, he had the idea when he was 7 or so, when these events actually happened, started writing it in his 20's or 30's, and then sat on it for 50 years, out of respect for the parties involved.

goldfishy: I wonder how different it would have been if it was made years and years ago

wintermute: Alec Guinness instead of Geoffrey Rush?

goldfishy: Hahahahaha! Can you imagine him telling the King to "Use the force George!"

Sentynel: These are not the speech therapists you're looking for.

Trivia Getaways

* ThePhan won two posters because they kept doing trivia getaways and there were only six people there.

ThePhan: Er, giveaways, not getaways.

ThePhan: I'm not sure I'd want to go on a vacation where all you did was trivia.

Goosey: TP: That's if you pass an audition to get on Jeopardy.

wintermute: Trivia getaways are an excellent idea.

wintermute: You could go on a cruise, and learn unimportant things about every place you visit.

Nyperold: Trivia getaways could also be part of an educational game. Your character commits a robbery, and gets away, not by driving faster than they can block you in, but by answering trivia questions.

wintermute: So, you want to train kids to be criminal masterminds?

Nyperold: No. I want to train them to think that works, so when they try it, they totally get caught.

Queen

ThePhan: But also I'm generally a "The show must go on" kinda person. I may snark and grumble to myself about feeling nasty, but in the end I'm pretty unlikely to pull out of something for physical issues.

Sentynel: Now I have a Queen song stuck in my head.

ThePhan: The show must go on!

ThePhan: The show must go oooooooooon!

ThePhan: Inside my heart is breaking, my makeup may be flaking, but my smile still stays oooooon!

Sentynel: Indeed.

Goosey: LOL

ThePhan: And I'll keep on fiiiiiiiiiiiighting till the end!

ThePhan: I am the champion! I AM THE CHAMPION!

ThePhan: NO TIME FOR LOSERS 'CAUSE I AM THE CHAMPION

ThePhan: OF THE WORLD!

ThePhan: OK, time to write a paper on charter schools with zero information from the chapter.

goldfishy: Seems like a good time to do it, you being the champion of the world and all

ThePhan: Yeah, don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time!

* ThePhan will just type up some Queen lyrics in her paper and turn it in.
