C4S3: Stuff: Transpire

[21:14] == kaiserA has changed nick to pigBurner
[21:14] <pigBurner> aw yeah motherfuckers someone's getting roasted now
[21:14] <tetradecillionthIdiom> That poor pig
[21:15] <pigBurner> we could very well say that
[21:15] <pigBurner> but saying it's poor would imply there's innocence
[21:15] <pigBurner> and lets face it, they don't have that
[21:15] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Ah, of course
[21:16] == Velcha has changed nick to operaticTinner
[21:16] <pigBurner> anyways what's up bitches
[21:16] <operaticTinner> So, for the record, I'm also playing Overwatch so I might be on and off
[21:16] <pigBurner> nerd
[21:16] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Excuse me
[21:16] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I find it needlessly offensive to exclude me from that first group
[21:16] <tetradecillionthIdiom> You jerk
[21:17] <operaticTinner> Yes excuse you, mr "I smashed my face against the keyboard to get my name"
[21:17] <pigBurner> exactly
[21:17] <operaticTinner> Either that or you sneezed and Siri mistook it for words
[21:17] <pigBurner> I think it was a severe case of cat walk
[21:17] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I can change it to something easier for you to read, if you need me to
[21:18] <operaticTinner> The whole thing doesn't even fit
[21:18] <operaticTinner> TetradecillionthIdio
[21:18] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Darn
[21:18] <pigBurner> wow how tiny is your screen?
[21:18] <operaticTinner> ... Normal laptop sized?
[21:18] <tetradecillionthIdiom> So close to getting that last t
[21:18] <pigBurner> are you running one of those old IBM machines that display like just green?
[21:18] <operaticTinner> It's a fucking lenovo thinkpad thank you very much
[21:19] <pigBurner> omg wait it's one of those black ones those nerds use
[21:19] <operaticTinner> Nah
[21:19] <operaticTinner> Nerds use IBM Greenscreen mainframe computers
[21:20] <pigBurner> dude those are fucking huge
[21:20] <pigBurner> how do you like keep it on your lap
[21:20] <operaticTinner> With much pain
[21:21] <pigBurner> wow
[21:21] <pigBurner> dude we got a martyr here
[21:21] <pigBurner> or was it a martin
[21:21] <pigBurner> I forget
[21:21] <tetradecillionthIdiom> We're honoured that you value our company enough to suffer through that
[21:22] <pigBurner> so hey what's up nerdlord
[21:22] <pigBurner> got that crazy game of yours set up?
[21:22] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I'm getting there
[21:22] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Waging the pros and cons of different game systems
[21:22] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Do either of you have a preference?
[21:22] <pigBurner> I like the write what you do system
[21:23] <pigBurner> way better than the draw what you do system
[21:23] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Tough to disagree with that
[21:23] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Particularly when we're speaking in a text-based medium
[21:23] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Unless you'd like to try your hand at ASCII?
[21:24] <pigBurner> I like to write on pieces of paper and take pictures of it on every turn
[21:24] <pigBurner> has a more douchebà to it
[21:24] <pigBurner> if you catch my drift
[21:25] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Of course
[21:25] <tetradecillionthIdiom> It's definitely... got its appeal
[21:25] <pigBurner> cearly
[21:25] <tetradecillionthIdiom> But I meant which mechanical system
[21:26] <pigBurner> wait you are using calculus or some shit for your game?
[21:26] <pigBurner> omg you really are a nerdlord
[21:26] <tetradecillionthIdiom> This is true
[21:26] <tetradecillionthIdiom> But no, calculus shouldn't be necessary
[21:26] <tetradecillionthIdiom> This isn't FATAL
[21:26] <pigBurner> oh phew
[21:26] <tetradecillionthIdiom> That's next week's game
[21:26] <tetradecillionthIdiom> However, as I was saying
[21:26] <pigBurner> well I rather be sqashed by a tank than have to do calculus
[21:27] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I'm debating between the fairly rules-intensive D&D, or a lighter system that's based on a popular webcomic
[21:27] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Perhaps an easier to understand system would be better for you, eh?
[21:27] <pigBurner> I have no idea how either works so I'll go for the lighter one
[21:28] <tetradecillionthIdiom> RPGSleuth it is
[21:28] <pigBurner> I saw those d&d tomes and fuck they are huge
[21:28] <tetradecillionthIdiom> That makes it easy
[21:28] <pigBurner> like I think you can kill someone with those
[21:28] <tetradecillionthIdiom> You most certainly can
[21:28] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I've done the math
[21:28] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Or rather
[21:28] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I pretended to do the math and came up with "instagib"
[21:28] <pigBurner> neeeerrrdddddd
[21:29] <pigBurner> I mean it doesn't take a genius to think that thick heavy thing + swing + head = dead
[21:29] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Eeyup
[21:29] <pigBurner> see? didn't even need calculus for that
[21:29] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Heads are the natural prey of heavy things
[21:29] <tetradecillionthIdiom> And swinging is their method of hunting
[21:30] <tetradecillionthIdiom> They are truly a majestic race of predators
[21:30] <pigBurner> swinging is really effective on whatever you do
[21:30] <pigBurner> no exceptions
[21:30] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Rapiers
[21:30] <pigBurner> nope, still effective
[21:30] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Spears
[21:30] <pigBurner> still effective
[21:31] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Snowglobes
[21:31] <pigBurner> you gotta think outside the box man!
[21:31] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Boxes
[21:31] <pigBurner> it's SPECIALLY effective on snowglobes
[21:31] <tetradecillionthIdiom> But only the insides of them
[21:31] <pigBurner> I never specified what *is* swinging
[21:31] <pigBurner> I just said that *something* is swinging
[21:31] <pigBurner> catch my drift?
[21:32] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Ah, of course
[21:32] <tetradecillionthIdiom> ... So is that a yes or a no on the boxes?
[21:32] <pigBurner> it's a rotund yes
[21:32] <pigBurner> man what are you some sort of square minded tuck?
[21:33] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Now now, PB
[21:33] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I'm only just getting started
[21:33] <tetradecillionthIdiom> What about a pendulum?
[21:33] <pigBurner> so you accept being a square minded tuck
[21:33] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I'm saying I've only just *begun* to be a square minded tuck
[21:34] <tetradecillionthIdiom> You've seen nothing yet
[21:34] <tetradecillionthIdiom> And if you think this is the tuckiest I'll get
[21:34] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Then you, mon ami, are mistaken
[21:35] <tetradecillionthIdiom> (Talking in French counts as outside the box, right?)
[21:35] <pigBurner> why would you ever want to be like that
[21:35] <pigBurner> and no
[21:35] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Because it's who I am
[21:35] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Everything wrong with the internet is me
[21:35] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Including square minded tucks
[21:35] <pigBurner> i am pretty sure you aren't the embodiment of the internet
[21:35] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Of course not
[21:35] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Don't be silly
[21:36] <pigBurner> dude dude dude
[21:36] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Only the embodiment of the things wrong with it
[21:36] <pigBurner> the other day I saw the most stupid convoluted piece of shit book in a while
[21:36] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Is that so?
[21:36] <pigBurner> it basically went out with the "all humans are connected in a trans human neural netowrk becuase of the internet" or some shit
[21:36] <pigBurner> it was bonkers
[21:37] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Hah!
[21:37] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Good ol' singularity fiction
[21:37] <tetradecillionthIdiom> How old was it?
[21:38] <pigBurner> it was ok
[21:38] <pigBurner> it ended on the god character who only had a god complex collapsing in a poof of logic
[21:38] <tetradecillionthIdiom> That wasn't a typo
[21:38] <pigBurner> so I kinda like that
[21:38] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I mean how old was it?  When was it written?
[21:38] <pigBurner> oh I totally read good
[21:39] <pigBurner> I need glasses haha
[21:39] <pigBurner> it's from the 90's
[21:39] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Sounds about right
[21:39] <pigBurner> I mean it has to be kinda recent with that topic
[21:39] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Yeah, but I imagine there was quite a bit of zeerust involved
[21:40] <tetradecillionthIdiom> The past's attempts to catch up with the present
[21:40] <pigBurner> a what now?
[21:40] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Did they have hovercars?
[21:40] <pigBurner> nope
[21:40] <pigBurner> it was rather normal
[21:40] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Ah
[21:40] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Just about the mind, then
[21:40] <pigBurner> human collectivism aside
[21:41] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I actually ran a campaign about fighting a hive mind, once
[21:41] <pigBurner> yeah pretty much like the most futuristic thing was expecting people not to have a 1 million dollar power bill
[21:41] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Few years ago, but it was quite interesting to try and get into the headspace of an entity with no need to communicate
[21:41] <pigBurner> (maybe it was in a post scarcity society where money means nothing anymore, omg that makes it so much better)
[21:42] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Correct me if I'm mistaken, but post scarcity means nobody needs to work?
[21:42] <pigBurner> well here the hivemind wasn't really real, it was the "god" using the humans to generate power to sustain his existance
[21:42] <pigBurner> pretty much
[21:43] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Interesting
[21:43] <pigBurner> there's no point to money becuase goods aren't valueable
[21:43] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Because everyone has whatever they need
[21:43] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Because it's post-scarcity
[21:43] <pigBurner> and everything is too cheap to make
[21:43] <pigBurner> pretty much
[21:43] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Got it
[21:43] <pigBurner> post scarcity basically means everything is easy to make so nothing is really valuable
[21:43] <tetradecillionthIdiom> A pretty cool thing to think about, really
[21:43] <pigBurner> well it's the future really
[21:44] <pigBurner> it's gonna happen eventually
[21:44] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Eeyup
[21:44] <tetradecillionthIdiom> If we don't all die in a pyroclastic inferno first
[21:44] <pigBurner> omg I hate how the west is so fucking apocalyptic
[21:45] <pigBurner> no we didn't kill us all during the cold war and no we won't kill us off now
[21:45] <tetradecillionthIdiom> That's... not quite what I meant
[21:45] <pigBurner> still you are bringing about an end of times as if it was gonna happen like tomorrow
[21:45] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Perhaps mankind won't destroy itself
[21:46] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Heaven knows I don't want it to destroy itself
[21:46] <pigBurner> dude, even if shit goes off something will arise from the ashes
[21:46] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I like mankind.  My best friends live there
[21:46] <operaticTinner> *yawns*
[21:46] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Indeed it will
[21:46] <pigBurner> brb I need to get something to drink
[21:46] <operaticTinner> II'm here guys
[21:46] <operaticTinner> Wh@'s up
[21:46] <pigBurner> her there OT
[21:47] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Run while you still can, PB
[21:47] <tetradecillionthIdiom> You made your excuse to leave, just go
[21:47] <tetradecillionthIdiom> She might not have seen you yet
[21:47] <operaticTinner> ?
[21:47] <operaticTinner> Were you tallkiing about me agaiin?
[21:48] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Um
[21:48] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Nnnnnnnooooooooo?
[21:48] <pigBurner> ok I am back
[21:48] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I was talking about... um... my imaginary friend
[21:48] <pigBurner> no OT we are talking about sausages
[21:48] <operaticTinner> Oh okay
[21:48] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Yes
[21:48] <pigBurner> so come of frankfurters are the best
[21:48] <tetradecillionthIdiom> My imaginary friend, sausages
[21:48] <operaticTinner> You're pathetiic
[21:48] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Dang right I am
[21:49] <tetradecillionthIdiom> But sausages could totally beat up frankfurters in a cage match
[21:49] <pigBurner> you really like getting burned man
[21:49] <pigBurner> are you some kind of masochist or some shit?
[21:49] <operaticTinner> Iis Frankfurters PB's iimagiinary friiend?
[21:49] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Are you trying to call me a pig?
[21:50] <tetradecillionthIdiom> And yes, obviously
[21:50] <pigBurner> no, frankfurters are great sausages
[21:50] <operaticTinner> II see
[21:50] <operaticTinner> iit makes perfect sense to name an iimagiinary friiend after a frankfurter
[21:50] <operaticTinner> Or mulltiiplle, as the case may be
[21:51] <pigBurner> well if your friend is called frankfurter then he's probably long eh? ; )
[21:52] <operaticTinner> II woulld assume so, PB
[21:52] <operaticTinner> II mean, he's your iimagiinary friiend
[21:52] <operaticTinner> Iif your iimagiinary friiend is diilldo-lliike, we won't judge
[21:52] <pigBurner> omfg
[21:52] <pigBurner> i'll kick your butt so hard
[21:53] <operaticTinner> Do iit biitch
[21:53] <operaticTinner> One on one
[21:53] <pigBurner> oh I will
[21:53] <operaticTinner> Peoplle can bet on our match
[21:53] <pigBurner> I know where you live
[21:53] <operaticTinner> they'llll allll bet on me obviiouslly
[21:53] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Can, um
[21:53] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Can I bet on frankfurters?
[21:53] <tetradecillionthIdiom> They seem like the most capable in a fight
[21:54] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Despite not actually being involved in the fight
[21:54] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I figure they'll still win
[21:54] <operaticTinner> II have no doubts
[21:55] <pigBurner> frankfurters is great at fighting
[21:55] <operaticTinner> He iis a diilldo after allll
[21:55] == The_Boss [[email protected]] has joined #RPGStuck_C4S3
[21:55] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Indeed he is
[21:55] <operaticTinner> Fantastiic pussy sllayer
[21:55] <tetradecillionthIdiom> The mightiest of them all
[21:55] <pigBurner> omfg
[21:56] <The_Boss> Did
[21:56] <The_Boss> Did I come in at a bad time
[21:56] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Except for my...
[21:56] <operaticTinner> Ohaii boss
[21:56] <tetradecillionthIdiom> *Dramatic pause*
[21:56] <pigBurner> well, we are off to a good start
[21:56] <The_Boss> Hello OT
[21:56] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Unbreakable katana
[21:56] <operaticTinner> We're tallkiing about PB's "friiend"
[21:56] <The_Boss> It is good to see you
[21:56] <pigBurner> more like awkward pause nerdlord
[21:56] <operaticTinner> Iit's good to see you too =:)
[21:56] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Shut up I said it was dramatic
[21:56] <tetradecillionthIdiom> That makes it count as dramatic
[21:56] <pigBurner> I beg to differ
[21:56] <tetradecillionthIdiom> It was in the asterisks and everything
[21:57] <tetradecillionthIdiom> The point is, a 9001-times folded katana is way better than a frankfurter at fighting
[21:57] <operaticTinner> Iit was quiite dramatiic
[21:57] <The_Boss> So how is everyone
[21:57] <pigBurner> are you sure tho?
[21:57] <operaticTinner> Yes
[21:57] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Yeah
[21:58] <The_Boss> Meh
[21:58] <pigBurner> I mean frankfurt is known for holding up
[21:58] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Now, the real difficulty comes in when it turns out that there's more than one frankfurter
[21:58] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Frankfurters may well defeat my katana
[21:59] <tetradecillionthIdiom> And that, boys and girls, is not a fight I'd want to place bets on
[21:59] <The_Boss> I do not know of any frankfurter homocides
[21:59] <The_Boss> Bratwurst, however
[22:00] <operaticTinner> Bratwurst iis siigniifiicantlly lless diilldoey. Iit miight diisappoiint PB
[22:00] <pigBurner> nonono
[22:00] <The_Boss> There were a few legends in the Carnival that spoke of a killer bratwurst
[22:00] <pigBurner> blutwurst are clearly superior
[22:00] <The_Boss> I do think it is tastier
[22:01] <tetradecillionthIdiom> There's only one way to handle such a five-way death match
[22:02] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Sausages, frankfurters, bratwurst, blutwurst, and my katana enter the ring
[22:02] <tetradecillionthIdiom> But only one will leave
[22:02] <pigBurner> only one gets the bread
[22:02] <operaticTinner> Allll of the others gang up on the katana
[22:02] <The_Boss> Katanas?
[22:02] <The_Boss> They are not really... very good blades
[22:02] <pigBurner> they are being weird
[22:03] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Poor katana
[22:03] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Beaten down in the prime of his youth
[22:03] <The_Boss> They are decent but over-sensationalized
[22:03] <The_Boss> what is a blutwurst
[22:03] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Never again to feel the gentle touch of my fingerless gloves against its Nippon steel
[22:03] <pigBurner> Zweihänder are the best as we all know
[22:03] <The_Boss> if you are strong enough for it
[22:04] <operaticTinner> Oh. My. God.
[22:04] <operaticTinner> Llys
[22:04] <operaticTinner> You wear fiingerlless glloves?
[22:04] <The_Boss> He seems the type to
[22:04] <pigBurner> idk about nippon steel but I've felt the touch of nipple steel if you get what I mean
[22:04] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I may or may not wear fingerless gloves
[22:04] <operaticTinner> You're such a shiity aniime protagoniist
[22:04] <The_Boss> What is anime
[22:04] <operaticTinner> II'm sure you get allll da puss, PB
[22:04] <operaticTinner> Don't worry about it, Boss
[22:04] <pigBurner> it's this nerd thing weaboos watch
[22:05] <operaticTinner> Iit's a waste of tiime
[22:05] <pigBurner> pretty much
[22:05] <The_Boss> It sounds worthless
[22:05] <operaticTinner> Yep
[22:05] <The_Boss> Hm
[22:05] <The_Boss> Very well, thank you for telling me
[22:06] <tetradecillionthIdiom> First everybody gangs up on my katana in the sausage fight, now everyone hates anime which I apparently am made of
[22:06] <operaticTinner> Iit's lliike cartoons, but wiith swords, based on my iintense knowlledge of Llys never shuttiing up about iit
[22:06] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I'm beginning to get the feeling that I'm a tiny bit unwelcome here
[22:06] <operaticTinner> <3
[22:06] <The_Boss> What is your real name you ever-handle shifting ass
[22:06] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Jeremiah Gottwald
[22:06] <operaticTinner> He's Llys
[22:06] <pigBurner> we all know you were welcomed from the start
[22:06] <The_Boss> I will call him L
[22:06] <pigBurner> in a special way of course
[22:07] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Only if L is short for Ljeremiah Gottwald
[22:07] <The_Boss> Or loser
[22:07] <The_Boss> you can pick
[22:07] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Or that
[22:07] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I pick that one you said
[22:07] <The_Boss> hehe
[22:07] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Rolls off the tongue
[22:07] <The_Boss> Very well
[22:07] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Thank you
[22:08] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I appreciate your willingness to humour me
[22:08] <The_Boss> I always do, sweetie.
[22:08] <pigBurner> omg
[22:08] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Um
[22:08] <pigBurner> I think boss just proposed to marry  you
[22:08] <pigBurner> you
[22:09] <The_Boss> That was meant to be condescending
[22:09] <operaticTinner> Are we just shiippiing the Boss wiith everyone now?
[22:09] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Girl, we've only known each other for like twelve minutes
[22:09] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Slow down a little
[22:09] <The_Boss> What did I even do
[22:09] <tetradecillionthIdiom> I know it can be hard
[22:09] <pigBurner> are you suuuuure tho?
[22:09] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Seeing as I *am* irresistible
[22:09] <pigBurner> amnesia is a pretty common problem
[22:09] <The_Boss> No, gah, no
[22:09] <tetradecillionthIdiom> Source: Fingerless gloves
[22:09] <operaticTinner> Pfffffffffffffffffffffthth
[22:09] <pigBurner> specially if you are getting hit a lot
[22:09] <pigBurner> wink wink
[22:10] <The_Boss> I need a moment, the thought of L in any way more than a maggot revolts me
[22:10] <The_Boss> Damn all of you
[22:10] <operaticTinner> Sorry Boss
[22:10] <pigBurner> I am pretty ok damming you
[22:11] == tetradecillionthIdiom has changed nick to anybodyElse
[22:11] <The_Boss> whew
[22:11] <anybodyElse> So hey, what's going on in this room?
[22:11] <The_Boss> okay
[22:12] <The_Boss> I feel a little better
[22:12] <anybodyElse> I wouldn't know, seeing as I'm someone else entirely
[22:12] <The_Boss> Just needed a drink
[22:12] <operaticTinner> Fuckiing smooth
[22:12] <pigBurner> who's this guy
[22:12] <operaticTinner> Ooh
[22:12] <anybodyElse> Definitely didn't just change my name and escape the country
[22:12] <pigBurner> never seen him
[22:12] <operaticTinner> You're driinking?

[22:12] <anybodyElse> I've never heard of him at all
[22:12] <The_Boss> Anything as long as it is alcohol
[22:12] <The_Boss> Or some water
[22:12] <pigBurner> I think it's Adam Sandler
[22:13] <anybodyElse> Sounds about right
[22:13] <anybodyElse> Though maybe offering to marry him would be a poor decision
[22:13] <The_Boss> Why did you change names again L
[22:13] <anybodyElse> He probably gets loads of proposals every day
[22:13] <anybodyElse> I don't know what you're talking about
[22:14] <The_Boss> I can see that you changed names
[22:14] <anybodyElse> I'm not L, I'm just AE
[22:14] <pigBurner> who are you talking to

[22:19] <pigBurner> stab him
[22:19] <pigBurner> please
[22:19] <The_Boss> More impressive

[22:19] <operaticTinner> *stabs a random pedestriian*
[22:19] <anybodyElse> Unfortunately, I no longer have my katana after it got beat up by a bunch of meat products
[22:19] <operaticTinner> II rolllled a 14, biitch

[22:21] <anybodyElse> How do you know it works?
[22:21] <anybodyElse> Better practice, just to be sure
[22:21] <The_Boss> I test it on targets every now and then
[22:21] <The_Boss> and always rebuy then from the same seller
[22:21] <The_Boss> keeps him honest
[22:22] <The_Boss> One time it was a sugar pill and i accused him of flirting with me hehe

[22:39] <anybodyElse> Where do aliens keep their blocks pre-smash?
[22:39] <anybodyElse> I mean, usually

[22:40] <pigBurner> they are knows for that
[22:40] <anybodyElse> Makes sense
[22:40] <anybodyElse> That's why they call it the Alien Block State
[22:40] <anybodyElse> And probably why all those offers are void...
[22:41] <anybodyElse> Can you technobabble up a way for my torpedos to get past their defences?

[23:14] <anybodyElse> Honestly, PB, I have trouble keeping proletariat and bourgeoisie straight
[23:14] <anybodyElse> Was proletariat the working class or the rich people?
[23:14] <pigBurner> the hard working class that has been opressed by generations
[23:15] <anybodyElse> Ah
[23:15] <anybodyElse> Thank you
[23:15] <anybodyElse> You may need to remind me of that again in the future, though
[23:15] <anybodyElse> Sorry to impose
[23:15] <pigBurner> you might need to brush up
[23:15] <The_Boss> Did I miss anything?
[23:15] <pigBurner> give the manifesto a read k?
[23:15] <The_Boss> Sorry I heard a noise outside
[23:15] <anybodyElse> I do what I can to help the proletariat, then, but money's tight
[23:15] <anybodyElse> Link me this manifesto
[23:16] <anybodyElse> My big difficulty is just keeping the two words distinct
[23:16] <pigBurner> https://www.marxists.org/subject/anarchism/index.htm
[23:16] <anybodyElse> Haven't been able to work out a mnemonic device yet
[23:16] <anybodyElse> Fantastic, thank you
[23:17] <anybodyElse> As I was saying - I do what I can, but we really do need money
[23:18] <anybodyElse> I'm... not exactly the sort of person capable of living off the land
[23:18] <pigBurner> that's the best part
[23:18] <anybodyElse> Which I know sounds lazy, but there's a bit more to it than that
[23:18] <pigBurner> you don't have to
[23:18] <anybodyElse> Alright...
[23:18] <pigBurner> you see anyone can help the proletarian
[23:18] <pigBurner> we only need to tumble over the upper class
[23:19] <anybodyElse> How?
[23:19] <pigBurner> join the resistance movement!
[23:19] <pigBurner> sabotange them
[23:19] <pigBurner> bring the power back to the people!
[23:19] <anybodyElse> That does sound impressive
[23:20] <anybodyElse> Truly it does
[23:20] <anybodyElse> But... how?
[23:20] <anybodyElse> What do I physically have to do?
[23:20] <pigBurner> if you cannot think of how then find the local movement
[23:20] <anybodyElse> Step by step instructions, I'll follow them, but this sounds more like a list of goals
[23:20] <pigBurner> and ask them what you can do to help
[23:20] <pigBurner> you can instruct people of our doctrine
[23:20] <pigBurner> break others from the illusion
[23:20] <pigBurner> or outright attack the system!
[23:21] <anybodyElse> I believe that's called terrorism
[23:21] <pigBurner> no
[23:21] <pigBurner> it's called revolution
[23:21] <anybodyElse> ... I see
[23:21] <anybodyElse> Well, tell you what
[23:22] <anybodyElse> I'll do what I can to convert more people
[23:22] <pigBurner> Perfect!
[23:22] <anybodyElse> But PB, *you*'re my local movement.  You're the person I'll have to ask for ways to help
[23:22] <pigBurner> the more people you enlighten the faster the system will be destroyed and a new one shall arise from the ashes
[23:23] <pigBurner> hm
[23:23] <pigBurner> I never saw it in that way
[23:23] <pigBurner> ok
[23:23] <pigBurner> so tell me
[23:23] <pigBurner> where are you
[23:23] <anybodyElse> Right now?
[23:23] <pigBurner> yes
[23:24] <anybodyElse> I believe it's the Atlantic Ocean
[23:24] <pigBurner> ok
[23:24] <pigBurner> so where are you heading
[23:24] <pigBurner> got any clue?
[23:24] <anybodyElse> East
[23:24] <pigBurner> in the world
[23:24] <pigBurner> like what is your destination
[23:25] <anybodyElse> I can ask, if you'd like
[23:25] <pigBurner> yes
[23:25] <anybodyElse> But I don't know myself
[23:25] <pigBurner> in order to help the cause you must become assertive!
[23:25] <anybodyElse> Alright...
[23:26] <anybodyElse> ... Apparently, Belarus
[23:26] <pigBurner> belarus
[23:26] <pigBurner> good old white ruthenia
[23:26] <anybodyElse> Which I guess is a place
[23:26] <pigBurner> I got some comrades there
[23:27] <pigBurner> I'll send them a message asking about their needs
[23:27] <anybodyElse> Very well
[23:27] <pigBurner> the resistance is verys trong over tehre
[23:28] <pigBurner> you should have no trouble finding a good positojn there
[23:28] <pigBurner> having an operative moving around might be useful to them
[23:28] <anybodyElse> That's... good
[23:28] <anybodyElse> Um, PB?
[23:28] <anybodyElse> Quick question, if I may
[23:28] <pigBurner> ask away
[23:29] <anybodyElse> What makes this new system of yours better than the old?
[23:29] <anybodyElse> You say the current one is so awful, how it needs to be destroyed
[23:29] <pigBurner> living off based on merit
[23:29] <anybodyElse> But revolution for its own sake is pointless
[23:29] <pigBurner> no such bullshit as being lucking getting the inheritance
[23:29] <pigBurner> everyone will be on the same starting ground
[23:29] <pigBurner> and you'll go as high as you can
[23:30] <anybodyElse> Another question
[23:30] <pigBurner> yes
[23:30] <anybodyElse> Is that "same starting ground" supposed to be fair, or equal?
[23:30] <pigBurner> starting ground is education
[23:30] <pigBurner> everyone will get the absolute best education
[23:31] <pigBurner> and from there you'll go as far as you can
[23:31] <anybodyElse> That's not what I'm asking
[23:31] <pigBurner> no fake limitations imposed by being born in the wrong palce
[23:31] <pigBurner> it is absolute equality cutting up
[23:31] <anybodyElse> But what about real limitations imposed by being born the wrong way?
[23:31] <anybodyElse> What happens to people who never got the chance to be equal?
[23:31] <anybodyElse> Not because of society, but because of biology?
[23:32] <pigBurner> you got no money, thus you cannot go to a decent school thus you cannot get into a university thus you are stuck in a limitation
[23:32] <pigBurner> society
[23:32] <anybodyElse> You're born blind
[23:32] <pigBurner> society created this limits ecuase of an imperfection in the system
[23:32] <anybodyElse> You are limited
[23:32] <anybodyElse> Is society to blame for that as well?
[23:32] <anybodyElse> Are you given fairness, allowed to thrive?
[23:32] <pigBurner> everyone has their own limitations, but we won't let society block geniuses who were born in africa
[23:33] <anybodyElse> Or does "equality" force you to lead a worthless life?
[23:33] <pigBurner> no
[23:33] <pigBurner> why would it be worthless when youa re allowed to pursue your dreams and goals
[23:33] <anybodyElse> Because that's not fair
[23:33] <anybodyElse> It's equal, but it's not fair
[23:34] <pigBurner> how so
[23:34] <pigBurner> how is being able to do what you want unfair
[23:34] <pigBurner> and how is being forced to be a garbage collector when you should have been an architect fair
[23:34] <anybodyElse> Example
[23:35] <anybodyElse> A baby is born blind
[23:35] <anybodyElse> But they're given the same education as anyone else
[23:35] <pigBurner> you are missing the point
[23:35] <anybodyElse> They're equal, just... less
[23:35] <anybodyElse> No, I don't think I am
[23:35] <pigBurner> I want everyone to get the best they could get
[23:35] <pigBurner> this means that the ones who REALLY need the best will get it
[23:35] <anybodyElse> So you'd give that blind child help?
[23:36] <pigBurner> this doesn't mean that blind people will not get the special eductaion they need
[23:36] <anybodyElse> Even though it means they get more than those born with perfect eyes get?
[23:36] <pigBurner> no
[23:36] <pigBurner> they get differente stuff
[23:36] <pigBurner> doesn't mean better
[23:36] <pigBurner> go to a special school
[23:36] <pigBurner> do it
[23:36] <pigBurner> look at what they do
[23:36] <pigBurner> it's not better
[23:36] <pigBurner> it's different
[23:36] <pigBurner> for what they need
[23:37] <anybodyElse> Is that now, or in your ideal society?
[23:37] <pigBurner> a kid without eyes doesn't get more years of study, he gets a different from of study
[23:37] <pigBurner> in the ideal society everyone that needs that will get it
[23:37] <pigBurner> yes
[23:37] <anybodyElse> Alright
[23:37] <pigBurner> now they don't, many cannot get what they need
[23:37] <anybodyElse> Then I'm in.
[23:37] <pigBurner> just go look at the slums of your city
[23:37] <pigBurner> perfect
[23:37] <anybodyElse> I don't have a city, PB
[23:38] <anybodyElse> I'm over the middle of the Atlantic Ocean
[23:38] <pigBurner> you are a citizen of the world then
[23:38] <pigBurner> you'll do what you can,
[23:38] <anybodyElse> Good way to put it
[23:39] <anybodyElse> I may need to remember that phrase
[23:39] <pigBurner> you are in a different position
[23:39] <pigBurner> you'll be able to do things the rest can, not better, different
[23:39] <anybodyElse> Good
[23:40] <anybodyElse> That's something everybody should be able to do
[23:40] <anybodyElse> The same *fair* starting point, ignoring both societal limitations and biological ones
[23:41] <pigBurner> equality doesn't mean everyone absolutly the same, that's the bolshevik sort of thought
[23:41] <pigBurner> everyone ahs their own tallents that will benefit everyone in some way
[23:42] <anybodyElse> Okay
[23:42] <anybodyElse> When I touch down, can you send me some handles to contact?
[23:44] <pigBurner> of course
[23:44] <pigBurner> give me a ring
[23:44] <anybodyElse> I will
[23:45] <anybodyElse> Thanks, PB
[23:45] <pigBurner> no problemo
[23:45] <pigBurner> may you find glory on your trail
[23:46] <anybodyElse> And you on yours, good sir
[23:46]  * anybodyElse has ceased pestering pigBurner
