2010.04.01 13:00 - A foolish anniversary

The Guardian for this meeting was Liza Deischer. The comments are by Liza Deischer.

It can only be on foolsday that PaB has been founded. Today we celebrate that with a lot of drinks and…….. foolishness. And maybe it is Eliza that came up with the real title for today: 'Oh, we're definitely disciplined in our nonsense.' So, read for yourself :-). As poster, I've got nothing to add.

Note from another poster: It's worth having a look at the 9 snapshots of the party at the bottom of this page, as not all of them are included alongside the text. :)

Zen Arado: looking for unicode support

Agatha Macbeth: Silly buddhas

Storm Nordwind: Perhaps your visitor should try looking at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_checklist

Vertigo Ethaniel: look for asian language packs for windows

Eden Haiku: With no other rules than stopping every 15 minutes for 90 seconds or 9 seconds in RL and we forget about it...

Eliza Madrigal checks the list...

Yakuzza Lethecus: do you remember his name?

Agatha Macbeth: Whose name?

Pema Pera also checking the lists, not many handles there for PaB it seems . . . .

Vertigo Ethaniel: no, dont recall.. but he was either a very angry person or just a troll

Eliza Madrigal: hm... weapons acquisition... we do have lemming shooters

Qt Core: are we going to hunt him all in the black pab shirt ?

Pema Pera: hehehe, Eliza!

Agatha Macbeth shrugs

Pema Pera: separating from society, geographically or socially -- does cyberially count?

Eliza Madrigal: infiltrating institutions....

Agatha Macbeth: Dunno, ask Cyerially

Agatha Macbeth: =b

Agatha Macbeth: +b

Zen Arado: cyberspatially?

Agatha Macbeth: (drunk)

Agatha Macbeth: (hic)

Vertigo Ethaniel: lol agatha

Storm Nordwind: cereally?

Agatha Macbeth: How are the sheep Vert?

Pema Pera: "slave labor" -- "deceptive recruitment" -- does goc recruitment count?

Eden Haiku: Ah, thamks to Wol, I know see all your titles. The strangest one being Rubyist. Is that a kind of kingly thing Pema?

Zen Arado: it's hard when you lose your unicode

Pema Pera: hahaha, Eden

Wol Euler: well, "deceptive recruitment" applies to every job I've ever had.

Pema Pera: it's about a computer language I like to code in, called Ruby

Pema Pera: aha, code -- must be a cult!

Agatha Macbeth: :)

Eliza Madrigal: Wol ;-)

Vertigo Ethaniel: i havent seen a sheep in months

Wol Euler: "of course you can take the weekends off!"

Agatha Macbeth: You can?

Pema Pera: :0

Wol Euler: :)

Eden Haiku: Ah I see...a kind of Rubik cube cult ?

Agatha Macbeth: 'Saturday's child works hard for a living'

Pema Pera: :)

Storm Nordwind: Ten of us are wearing uniform. Does that count?

Liza Deischer: take the weekends off ?

Pema Pera still reading cult definitions: "Provide them with instant acceptance from a seemingly loving group"

Eliza Madrigal: hmmm

Agatha Macbeth: Seemingly?

Pema Pera: :-)

Eden Haiku: ;)))

Agatha Macbeth: Substitute 'very'

Pema Pera: :)

Eliza Madrigal: "see and seem"

Pema Pera still reading Storm's list; I like the Canadian Security Intelligence Service -- the first cult characteristic is "dualism" , certainly not something we can be accused of :-)

Eliza Madrigal: :)

Bleu Oleander: ha!

Storm Nordwind chuckles

Eden Haiku: We and them...

Zen Arado: neither of us

Eden Haiku: Cowboys and Indians.

Pema Pera: but then comes "lack of restraint" . . . .

Eden Haiku: We have a cowboy at last ;)

Agatha Macbeth: Paleface speak with forked tongue
