| 15:58.05 | frostyfrog | fails to make cricket noises seeing as frogs can't make cricket noises. |

| 16:30.06 | spangborn | Wow I'm giving up on typing today |
| 16:30.50 | aeryndunham | oh, yeah, afternoon here too, I just try to adjust to Utah time :p |
| 16:37.26 | aeryndunham | trying to make myself study |
| 16:37.47 | aeryndunham | I kept getting frustrated and hitting walls with Python so of course the reasonable thing to do was play around with a completely unrelated programming language |

| 16:49.29 | frostyfrog | straya: You're right. It hasn't even hit noon yet. :p |
| 16:50.07 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: If at first you don't succeed, oooo, shiny! |
| 16:50.17 | aeryndunham | haha, basically |
| 17:00.07 | keldwud | does this look like a tooth? https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/a8/7f/c4/a87fc4bbdbf5dc1f656215ee6da1ce9e.jpg |
| 17:00.44 | romanovic | it looks like a cloud. from Mario. |
| 17:00.44 | keldwud | my daughter has been calling the cloud levels on Super Mario Bros (1) the tooth level as in "daddy! I found a vine and climbed up it and found the tooth level!" |
| 17:01.44 | keldwud | she doesn't believe me that they are clouds |
| 17:01.57 | romanovic | haha. the tooth level sounds like fun as well. |
| 17:02.55 | keldwud | yeah, it's adorable how excited she gets now that she realizes there's all sorts of hidden stuff in mario |
| 17:03.06 | frostyfrog | Well, everyone knows that you can't walk on clouds. |
| 17:03.48 | frostyfrog | So obviously it's the tooth level, because you could walk on teeth if they were bigger than you. |
| 17:07.55 | keldwud | I see the logic in that |

| 17:16.37 | romanovic | is perturbed that people use the breakroom as their own conference room |
| 17:17.13 | romanovic | NOT a conference room! Disruptive to the programmers sitting 3ft from the door! |
| 17:21.06 | aeryndunham | Chris's very poorly designed office decided that conference rooms were for the weak, or something, so whenever anyone needs to make a phone call where they can actually hear they have to go sit in their car |
| 17:21.16 | aeryndunham | it's ridiculous |
| 17:30.04 | spangborn | We have conference rooms, huddle rooms, and phone rooms |
| 17:30.07 | spangborn | It's great |
| 17:30.18 | spangborn | Phone rooms are where I take phone interviews for other jobs ð |
| 17:30.36 | eightyeight | unum: started book 11 yesterday |
| 17:32.27 | aeryndunham | ok brain hurting, one chapter enough for today I think |
| 17:32.57 | keldwud | spangborn: I used to take phone interviews for other jobs in my manager's office |
| 17:33.01 | manithree | spangborn: I call them time-out rooms (because they're tiny here) |
| 17:33.16 | spangborn | LOL keldwud |
| 17:33.16 | keldwud | because the huddle room was a war room for the whole month that I was actively looking while there |
| 17:33.23 | spangborn | Ugh war rooms |
| 17:33.26 | keldwud | not out of any sort of spite or vindictiveness |
| 17:33.36 | keldwud | speaking of actively looking |
| 17:33.37 | spangborn | Someone proposed we do that recently and not a single developer would do it |
| 17:34.08 | keldwud | anybody looking for help with their infrastructure and/or platform automations or code deployment automations? |
| 17:34.25 | keldwud | yeah warrooms are awful |
| 17:34.36 | keldwud | they are a fast track to burnout |
| 17:34.55 | spangborn | I had to be in one for about a week and it drove me to drink |
| 17:35.04 | keldwud | I watched a couple people rage quit because war rooms broke them |
| 17:35.18 | keldwud | one guy threw his laptop |
| 17:35.33 | spangborn | It's a great way to lose your best talent |
| 17:35.45 | spangborn | So if your payroll is costing you too much, you can get rid of your biggest earners by doing it |
| 17:37.58 | keldwud | omg so they were doing it on purpose! |
| 17:38.04 | keldwud | holy cow that's disengenous |
| 17:47.26 | programmerq | two offices ago, we had only two conference rooms at HQ. They started repurposing other places as conf rooms-- the server room, a closet |
| 17:47.34 | programmerq | rumor had it that the bathroom got used at least once. |
| 17:48.03 | keldwud | maybe they were having too many meetings |
| 17:48.32 | keldwud | also, did you guys see that Brandon Sanderson is on the current Humble Bundle books bundle? |
| 17:48.38 | keldwud | I know there are some Sanderson fands in here |
| 17:49.23 | programmerq | nah, they were just growing beyond what the office was initially planned for. |
| 17:50.21 | romanovic | I work in a building with salespeople. all bathrooms are de-facto conference rooms |
| 17:50.58 | spangborn | romanovic: Gross |
| 17:51.07 | spangborn | When people use the phone in the bathroom, I make all sorts of disgusting sounds intentionally |
| 17:51.18 | spangborn | Like when I'm pooping, I try to make it sound like I'm giving birth if I hear someone on the phone |
| 17:52.44 | spangborn | The goal is to embarrass as much as possible |
| 17:53.03 | romanovic | I don't understand it. we have other conference rooms. I work 30ft away from one that is not used more than 50% of the day, has a nice display and conference phone |
| 17:57.45 | aeryndunham | people are weird |
| 18:01.32 | romanovic | people are trying to start their lunch breaks. they're wandering aimlessly, because this team is still barricaded in the break room for their loud meeting |
| 18:01.59 | keldwud | chaos! |
| 18:02.13 | straya | Break down the door |
| 18:02.16 | straya | Demand lunchtime |
| 18:02.28 | keldwud | ^ |
| 18:02.40 | keldwud | bring signs |
| 18:02.47 | keldwud | make it a protest |
| 18:05.27 | romanovic | leaves to get his lunch and crash the breakroom meeting |
| 18:05.56 | keldwud | or you could just fart in the break room |
| 18:05.58 | keldwud | clear everyone out |
| 18:06.24 | keldwud | or open a can of sardines or tuna or something |
| 18:06.48 | keldwud | and start a bag of popcorn in the microwave of the other break room to attract people in that direction. carrot *and* stick :) |
| 18:10.03 | spangborn | Burn the popcorn |
| 18:10.23 | spangborn | Everyone does that here. I'm close to the break room and suffer through it every time |
| 18:26.48 | keldwud | every time this song comes on, I keep thinking it's a Queen song that I've never heard or forgotten. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQkBeOisNM0 |
| 18:27.13 | keldwud | does anybody else get a queen vibe from Some Nights by Fun? |
| 18:28.28 | aeryndunham | I can see that |
| 18:28.32 | aeryndunham | I like that song |
| 18:30.18 | jima | keldwud: oh, totally |
| 18:39.59 | keldwud | ok cool. I'm glad it's not just me. I thought maybe I was projecting or something. |
| 18:53.40 | jima | nah |
| 18:54.08 | jima | i forget if i explicitly came to that conclusion, but when you said it it was a "well yeah" feeling. |

| 21:27.12 | keldwud | anywhere that is a 15 minute bike ride from front runner, trax, or a major bus route (sold my car because I was living and working downtown) |
