| 00:19.59 | cheers | my two best friends are(were?) dating |
| 00:20.19 | cheers | she found some new hunky band guy & tells him that she want's to see other people as well as him. |
| 00:20.41 | darth_mall | yay! |
| 00:20.51 | darth_mall | promiscuity is the pillar of young-adulthood! |
| 00:20.55 | cheers | LOL |
| 00:21.02 | kergoth | hah |
| 00:21.16 | cheers | she's in the middle of explaining how monogomous relationships have kept her from viewing the "adult relationship world" |
| 00:21.22 | darth_mall | that or cheetos... I've never been entirely sure on the issue |
| 00:21.41 | kergoth | cheers: riiight |
| 00:21.49 | cheers | see, that's what I'mt hinking. |
| 00:21.50 | kergoth | i saw As Good As It Gets the other day, havent seen that in years |
| 00:21.54 | kergoth | there's this great scene |
| 00:21.55 | darth_mall | cheers: give her a bag of cheetos and send her off to read Stranger in a Strange Land |
| 00:22.04 | kergoth | his adoring fan asks him how he writes women characters in his novels so well |
| 00:22.13 | cheers | this sounds like "I don't want to be with him... unless hunky band guy doesn't work out" to me |
| 00:22.14 | kergoth | he responds "i start with a man, and take away reason and accountability." |
| 00:22.47 | cheers | ouch |
| 00:23.02 | kergoth | she was dumbfounded. i was amused. |
| 00:23.13 | darth_mall | kergoth: =D |
| 00:23.23 | scanline | hehe |
| 00:23.28 | darth_mall | cheers: sounds like it to me too |
| 00:23.48 | darth_mall | the decision is up to him whether he wants to be a safety net or not |
| 00:23.52 | cheers | *nod* |
| 00:24.03 | darth_mall | but that's just me |
| 00:24.05 | kergoth | heh |
| 00:24.10 | cheers | I hate being in the middle of this, too |
| 00:24.27 | kergoth | being their safety net weakens your position. you'll always be the codependent puppy dog following her around. you'll never be respected |
| 00:24.32 | kergoth | heh |
| 00:24.33 | darth_mall | oooh... LBC playin' the Gothic in Oct. |
| 00:24.36 | cheers | w/ his last girlfriend left him because God told her to go in another direction... I could safely hate her... |
| 00:24.41 | darth_mall | kergoth: some people might like that |
| 00:24.46 | darth_mall | cheers: don't be in the middle then |
| 00:24.48 | kergoth | heh, true enough |
| 00:24.48 | cheers | my best female friend... little harder to hate when i know shes looking for something to make her happy |
| 00:24.50 | darth_mall | refuse to be in the middle |
| 00:25.10 | cheers | kergoth: that describes poor Nate pretty well. :/ |
| 00:25.17 | kergoth | cheers: figured as much |
| 00:25.30 | kergoth | its all too easy for the "nice guy" to fall into that situation |
| 00:25.37 | kergoth | then ends up hurt |
| 00:25.40 | cheers | he's had some pretty rough relationships, too |
| 00:25.56 | cheers | think the only one i know of that ended well was the one w/ me! (we were 13) |
| 00:26.01 | darth_mall | cheers: but you can't force him to be independent and such |
| 00:26.08 | darth_mall | some people learn on their own... some never do |
| 00:26.13 | cheers | I know... but I still want to protect him. |
| 00:26.34 | kergoth | my friends tried to protect me when i was like that. almost ended the friendships, too. |
| 00:27.29 | cheers | hint taken |
| 00:27.43 | darth_mall | donkeys |
| 00:28.07 | kergoth | :) there's nothing wrong with wanting to protect him, and trying to, but if he decides he's willing to accept the consequences of his actions, you need to respect that decision |
| 00:28.21 | cheers | *nod* |
| 00:29.11 | darth_mall | cheers: the solution, as always, is beer |
| 00:29.17 | kergoth | yay beer |

| 02:35.27 | purple_cow | darth_mall: hopefully she'll see our reasoning |
| 02:35.39 | purple_cow | "i feel i'd get more out of these assignments if..." |
| 02:35.40 | darth_mall | "I love you"? |
| 02:35.43 | darth_mall | oh... heh |
| 02:35.56 | darth_mall | typos are *not* cool =P |
| 02:36.08 | purple_cow | because professors like to think their assignments are useful to students |
| 02:36.12 | darth_mall | hehe |
| 02:36.48 | purple_cow | and i pointed out that a lot of my time is being wasted by fumbling through poorly-documented syntax |
| 02:37.20 | darth_mall | all I said was that I'm not comfortable with matlab and that's making the homework rather difficult, but with a language I know I shouldn't have any problems with the homework |
| 02:37.29 | darth_mall | but... a little more elegantly than that ;) |
| 02:37.41 | purple_cow | hen |
| 02:37.44 | purple_cow | err, heh |
| 02:37.45 | darth_mall | hmm... I *should* do some hw, but I *want* to play guitar sommat |
| 02:37.50 | scanline | hrm, I should make sure this board size is correct too |
| 02:38.42 | rioter | i just relised i submited the wrong version of an assignment :( |
| 02:39.07 | darth_mall | =\ |
| 02:39.08 | merlin262 | rioter: just do like me, and blame webct |
| 02:39.10 | merlin262 | heheheheeh |

| 02:39.15 | rioter | oh god |

| 02:39.22 | rioter | i feel sorry for you |
| 02:39.27 | scanline | xchat now replaces your nickserv password with asterisks when you identify |
| 02:42.06 | ChipX86 | oohh |

| 02:47.19 | jbot | somebody said gir was a very spiffy robot from Invader Zim. Perhaps you meant 'emulate gir'. |
