The Cat Is the Hate

Ticia: The cat has discovered the heating pad on my lap. I don't think she has plans to move, ever.
LaZorra: Ticia: Now that I know there is a heating pad on your lap, I am going to join your cat.
* LaZorra curls up on Ticia's lap.
Ticia: LaZorra: Okay, but I may braid your hair while you're there.
LaZorra: Ticia: ...somehow I am now picturing you braiding your cat's tail into my hair.
LaZorra: Which sounds like a terrible idea.
LaZorra: for all of us
Sentynel: I'm not sure the cat would be a big fan of that idea.
Ticia: lol
Ticia: She just tried to bite me.
Ticia: The cat, that is.
ThePhan: WEDDING HAIR IDEA
ThePhan: Ticia will braid her cat's tail into my hair.
ThePhan: It will be beautiful.
Goosey: LOL
Ticia: haha
ThePhan: The cat will be attached, of course.
Randy: LOL
ThePhan: Otherwise there's really no point.
Ticia: The cat would make a fabulous hat.
LaZorra: LOL
LaZorra: Hey, some people pay big money for fur hats!
Sentynel: Normally they're not alive at the time.
Ticia: Yes, I would need her alive at the end of the wedding.
Ticia: No skinning my cat for a fabulous hat.
Randy: Its the new thing. Live animal hats.
Ticia: Imagine lazorra with a hat like this http://thequillsisters.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/cat-on-head.bmp
Ticia: Actually, this http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2NU84yo3_ns/...AAAkg/8ztP2vAkI4A/s1600/CAT-HEAD-2.jpg is closer to Teyla's coloring.
LaZorra: That is indeed a lovely hat!
LaZorra: And would go perfectly with Phan's dress.
Sentynel: I like how there are enough images on the internet of people with cats on their head that you can find one of the right colour.
ThePhan: LZ: It would!
Goosey: Dr. Suess's classic book, The Cat Is the Hate
Goosey: *HAT
* ThePhan wants people to photoshop cats onto her head during wedding pics now, btw.
ThePhan: THE CAT IS THE HATE
Sentynel: Goosey: That seems a bit darker than his usual work...
Goosey: SHOT OP
Goosey: At least I still have my eyes, okay?
LaZorra: THE CAT IS THE HATE
* LaZorra dies laughing.
Goosey: :)
LaZorra: THE CAT OUTSIDE THE WINDOW OF HATE
Sentynel: Also, it's Seuss.
LaZorra: Sent: No, Seuss wrote the Cat in the Hat.
Goosey: Laz: Sent was correcting my hasty spelling
Sentynel: Oh, right. Suess is his darker-and-edgier cousin.
LaZorra: Suess wrote The Cate is the Hat.
LaZorra: er
Goosey: LOL
Sentynel: Man, he was prolific!
LaZorra: it's hard to misspell a misspelling but im a hard man
Goosey: LOL LOL
Randy: LOL
* Randy loves this place
LaZorra: IN SOVIET RINKCHAT, CHAT LOVES YOU

Goosey Can't Keep Her Eyes

Goosey: Okay, it's literally hard to keep my eyes, so night!
Goosey has left.
Randy: LOL
ThePhan: ...Goosey can't keep her eyes?
ThePhan: Literally?
ThePhan: This sounds like a problem.
Dave: TP: I was just thinking the same thing. That's scary.
Randy: LOL LOL

(The next morning. The previous conversation was still on the buffer.)

Goosey has entered.
Goosey: Ticia memoed that to me, Sam memoed that to me, Phan posted it on my facebook . . .
Goosey: I'm happy to report that I still have my eyes . . .
Sam: LOL!!
Sam: And then you come in before it's scrolled off the buffer anyway.
Goosey: Ayup.

Wearing a Ton of Makeup

Dave: Decline II is like my favorite rockumentary ever.
Randy: Its the best when the guys are all "I live for rock and roll, if I don't make it I'll die!"
Goosey: Okay, I'm putting myself to bed.
Randy: while wearing a ton of makeup.
Goosey: Goodnight everybody!
Randy: night Goosey!
* Goosey HUGS everybody!
* Randy HUGS Goosey!
Ticia: I was all 'How does Randy know if Goosey is wearing a ton of makeup to bed?"
Goosey: LOL
Ticia: :-D
Randy: LOL
Randy: Don't all women do that?
Ticia: Oh sure. We love to wash our pillowcases every day.
Goosey: and if the house catches on fire overnight, we want to be ready when the firemans show up
Ticia: Well, yeah.
Randy: I KNEW IT
Goosey: IT IS LOGICAL

IMVO

Dave: I almost answered the door in my undies yesterday.
Dave: I forgot I wasn't wearing pants.
Maryam: LOL
Dave: That's the sign of a good day imvo.
Maryam: v?
Dave: The pizza guy shows up with dinner and you're still in your robe and undies.
Maryam: imVo? What's the V?
Dave: Yes, sorry. It means "In my Veronique opinion"
Dave: Why that is so is... weird.
Maryam: Hrm. I am actually no closer to an answer there.
Dave: LOL
Dave: It actually doesn't make much sense. I'll try to explain.
Maryam: Heh.
Goosey: LOL
Dave: My main character when I played WoW was named Hamirack. Stephen's was Veronique.
Dave: Somehow (and I'm really unclear how) everybody in our guild decided "IMHO" actually stood for "In my Hamirack opinion"
Maryam: Heh.
Dave: Somehow that morphed into imvo, but we wouldn't tell Stephen whatit meant for the longest time.
Dave: He was like "Come on guys, just tell me."
Dave: We kept him in the dark for long enough that it was kind of anti-climactic when we finally told him what it meant. He was just like "Why?"
Dave: And we were like "...don't knwo."
Maryam: LOL
Goosey: LOL
Dave: So, yeah. Then that became a running joke, we always said "imvo" instead of "imho"
Dave: And I still do it.
Goosey: Because you are Dave.
Dave: And that's the story, and you're probably still just as confused!

Cayenne With Triscuits

* Goosey eats sardines with triscuits
LaZorra: oh man, triscuits sound amazing right now.
* Goosey is about to try sprinkling one with cayenne . . . this could be interesting
Goosey: Oh dear, that was a larger dash of cayenne than I intended. Um.
Goosey: Who dares me?
LaZorra: Goosey: HOT HOT HOT
Randy: DO EEET
Goosey: huh, my mouth feels the heat, but was not ignited.
Goosey: And it was yummy.
Goosey: How interesting.
.
.
.
Goosey: Ow. Ow. Cayenne is burning a hole in my tongue. Ow.
LaZorra: oh nooooooo
LaZorra: that is not how you pierce your tongue goosey oh no it is not
Goosey: LOL

Moved the Lawn

* wintermute just mowed the lawn for the first time this year.
wintermute: Ohio had Second Winter this year.
* ThePhan just moved the lawn for the first time this year.
ThePhan: By the end of the year, it should be a full six feet to the left of where it was.
ThePhan: It will greatly confuse our neighbors.
Goosey: LOL
wintermute: Especially if it ends up in their house.
Goosey: Are you moving the entire lawn en masse? Or cutting a strip off one side and replanting it on the other?
ThePhan: Goosey: The former.
Goosey: Wow, that's talent

Phone Reviews

ThePhan: I AM TIRED OF WRITING PHONE REVIEWS
ThePhan: I have been doing it for like 3 hours.
wintermute: This phone came pre-programmed with Liam Neeson's phone number. A++. Would buy again.
ThePhan: LOL
ThePhan: That does not appear to be true of any of the ones I've written about so far.
ThePhan: Obviously I'm reviewing terrible phones.
wintermute: This phone is full of scorpions. Every time I answered it, they all stung my ear. 7/10/
wintermute: Without that trailing slash.
ThePhan: I think you were starting to date that review, but before you could write out the year, the scorpions killed you.
wintermute: LOL.

Resume 79

ThePhan has entered.
ThePhan: resume 79
ThePhan: Well, that's helpful.
Goosey: /
Goosey: ?
ThePhan: That was meant to be a / command. Heh.
Sam: 1979 HAS BEEN RESUMED.
Sam: Whoa.
Sam: Somebody had paused 1979 in October and zipped ahead to 1980.
Sam: NOW WE'RE BACK TO THE FINISH THE JOB.
Goosey: LOL
Sam: And sure enough, RinkChat in 1979 is the same as it always is.
ThePhan: LOL

Spending Life Living

Goosey: LOL WHAT
Goosey: So I'm opening this book to find the copyright date, and I glance at the very first page inside the cover and it's a brief biography of the author, D.H. Lawrence.
Goosey: The first sentence of the last paragraph is what catches my eye: "Lawrence spent most of his short life living."
Goosey: Oh, that's nice, did he spend part of it DEAD?
Goosey: The next sentence doesn't make it any better: "Nevertheless he produced an amazing quantity of work -- novels, stories, poems, plays, essays, travel books, translations and letters .. ."
Goosey: WRITING IS DEATH
ThePhan: Goosey: LOL
ThePhan: "He lived for most of his life, but he managed to write some books anyway."
ThePhan: That is amazing.
Goosey: I mean, I see what the writer here was TRYING to say "Lawrence had a busy life and did lots of other stuff besides writing" but it just comes off so FUNNY
ThePhan: It really does.

Eating a Video Game

Dave: Hahaha!
Dave: This just made Reddit front page: "Reddit, I have never eaten a video game. What are some tips..." blah blah blah.
Dave: Of course the person meant "BEATEN"
Sentynel: LOL
ThePhan: LOL
ThePhan: That's awesome.
Dave: But that one omitted letter got him over a thousand comments, all telling him the best way to break down a plastic cartridge/CD for ingestion, giving recipes for how to cook your DS games, and awesome stuff like that.
iwpg: LOL LOL LOL
