Conversational Highlights, 6/19/08
[20:30] <Ali> There’s a word for the act of throwing someone or something out of a window. Is there a word for lighting someone on fire?
[19:35] <Rawn> the lady working the desk behind mine says “So what’s the poop?” a lot.
[19:36] <Rawn> It really makes me want to light her cube on fire.
[14:14] <Sindri> I was talking to Ali on the phone earlier, because sometimes I just randomly call her when I’m lonely, and she said you had this thing she read about on CNN
[14:15] <Sindri> http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/personal/06/18/o.empathy/
[14:15] <Sindri> She might have seen it on Oprah
[14:16] <Sindri> She was like, “That’s totally what Cal has. That’s why we can’t ever have a good cry together after the TV gets repaired.”
[14:16] <Sindri> and I was like, “Go on…”
[14:16] <Sindri> And then I realized I’d unzipped myself on the freeway
[14:16] <Sindri> Actually, I didn’t realize it until the trucker did the horn thing.
[14:16] <Sindri> actually, it wasn’t until the third trucker.
[14:16] <Sindri> …
[14:17] <Cal> I’m not sure that link can live up to the intro you just gave it.
(for the record, I said no such thing as Cal is awesome, and also the TV thing is an inside joke)
And from a separate conversation…
[14:12] <Sindri> The difference being that Cal actually wants to hit her.
[14:12] <Sindri> like, with a pipe.
He was on a roll today:
[10:44] <Sindri> You know, what they say about getting desensitized is true.
[10:44] <Sindri> 15 years ago, this shit would have freaked me out
[10:45] <Sindri> Now, I’m like, “Whatever, trannies at work don’t even make me blink”
In an entirely different conversational realm:
Clark: What is that white shit?! WHAT IS THAT WHITE SHIT ON FUCKING MARS????!

Ajax: Awww shit, they found my stash. Great, now how am I gonna kill stupid rich people?
Frank: I think it’s a chewy nougat center.
Steve: Did you have to look the spelling up for “nougat”? Don’t lie…
Frank: no. but I totally googled it right after that because I realized that other than it being a chewy candy center I had no idea what nougat really was. Turns out the answer is: it’s a chewy candy center
I have great friends.
