Day 52 - The "I Forgot" Defense, Mistur Brwne, Or Maybe It's A Giant Bow Tie - Bow Ties Are Cool, Blink And You'll Miss Half A Brain, Suspect Swimming Situations, And Suspicious Shopping

              (More talk of dashed girlfriend prospects – Mr. Silver)

Mr. Silver

Not posting all that BTW...

11:46 AM Mr. Blue

Heh, sorry

11:46 AM Mr. Silver

Eh

You need to move on though.

11:47 AM Mr. Blue

K

11:47 AM Mr. Silver

I mean in the romance dept, not the subject.

I can't stop you talking about your stalking habits.

(notes to post that)

11:48 AM Mr. Blue

heheh

"And when exactly did you forget you had them, Mr. Meoli?" "Man! Like, within 10 minutes of eating one, dude..."

8:04 AM Mr. Blue

I don't remember running that stop light either, or pushing that guy into oncoming traffic.

8:04 AM Mr. Silver
Yup. Lotta "I forgot" defenses coming.

8:04 AM Mr. Brown

“Every time I eat one of these I forget I have them.”

8:05 AM Mr. Silver
Might become as popular as the insanity plea way back in the day.

8:05 AM Mr. Blue

I’m sure most people arrested for DUI don't remember a damn thing

8:07 AM Mr. Silver

"Aw man...that...that was like, MONTHS ago in...uh...like July." "It is July, sir." "Huh?"

8:08 AM Mr. Brown

i saw somthing on TV this morning about the egyption drunken party '

8:09 AM Mr. Blue

Is that why they walked funny?

8:09 AM Mr. Brown

I guess they drank beer more than water some people say

8:09 AM Mr. Silver

Certainly safer, and that notion remains to this day in some places.

8:09 AM Mr. Blue

Beer beer? Or just fermented stuff?

8:11 AM Mr. Brown

I would drink beer everyday

8:11 AM Mr. Red

Sounds like a plan right now

8:11 AM Mr. Pink

You would get fat

8:11 AM Mr. Red

Too late for me

8:11 AM Mr. Pink

haha

8:11 AM Mr. Brown

Not if you are constatly working like the egyptions did

8:12 AM Mr. Silver
(Throttles Mr. Brown) Egyptians!!!

8:14 AM Mr. Red

Translation – Mr. Silver's tired of editing you!

8:13 AM Mr. Brown

tians

ok

not tions

8:13 AM Mr. Silver

“egyptions” would be...like...free electrons extracted from Nile river water.

Note the face of Astro Boy prominently featured in the middle.
It's right above the tremendous Galactic "Corn Pops" cereal nugget.

8:23 AM Mr. Blue

Buzz Lightyear is our god

8:25 AM Mr. Red

To infinity and beyond

For Mr. Brown that is inphinety

8:25 AM Mr. Silver

"To the left and right of the bow-shaped loops, if you look closely you can see the laces descending, showing that our galaxy has learned to properly tie its shoes."

8:26 AM Mr. Blue

Good thing Nazis aren't around today, because some galaxies look like crude swastikas

The pinwheel kind

"SEE! We made them, too!"

8:27 AM Mr. Silver

With help from aliens.

That discovery is merely proof that we live in galaxy #8.

8:28 AM Mr. Blue

Pretty good number, actually. A nice round number

8:28 AM Mr. Brown

Maybe the aliens gave them the symbol

I like 8, 7 is my favorite

8:29 AM Mr. Blue

I’d hate to be the moderately intelligent gastropods living in galaxy #2,803,519

9:17 AM Mr. Pink

What's the maximum FPS a human eye can see?

9:18 AM Mr. Brown

That I would have to look up

9:18 AM Mr. Pink

I think it's maybe 60

9:20 AM Mr. Brown

I guess they have not tested the FPS enough to find one that we cannot see a difference in.

9:21 AM Mr. Pink

Google cant answer the question

9:22 AM Mr. Brown

Some people can see up to the 120fps

9:22 AM Mr. Pink

It looks like it's actually not as clear at 120 from what people wrote here; it blurs

9:23 AM Mr. Silver
Tech versus biology
Remember your retina is made up of lots of little receptors all firing at random when they get enough energy, and then it's transported and assembled in a flow.
It's not flashing completed pictures

9:27 AM Mr. Pink

But I want a benchmark on how fast these receptors can handle images, lol

9:29 AM Mr. Silver
Might be a matter of ocular nervous system and brain health then.
I've read there's a small percentage of women that have a 4th color receptor and see colors in much richer array than everyone else.
You hand them "the same red" to everyone else and they can always tell the two apart; that sort of thing.
I can't imagine them handling the same frame rate as a regular person though...overload.
33.3% more color info to process

9:33 AM Mr. Brown

Color blind people have issues with that reception too

So they see less colors

9:35 AM Mr. Silver

Interpret as fewer colors, more like. The receptors that see green and red interpreting the wavelengths as the same color, for that type, for example.

9:36 AM Mr. Pink

So if a person only had 1 eye you think it would be able to handle more

Is it the avenue limiting it, or the brain?

9:36 AM Mr. Brown

The brain could adapt

There are people with half a brain that can still function the same as a whole brained person

9:38 AM Mr. Silver
Some of our co-workers, for instance.

9:41 AM Mr. Pink

haha

11:03 AM Mr. Brown

It is very hot outside today

I THINK IT’S THE HEAT

11:05 AM Mr. Red

Go swimming, people!

11:12 AM Mr. Pink

I wish I had a swimming pool

Mr. Blue, you got a pool at your Hollywood Hills house?

11:16 AM Mr. Blue

No. There's a couple ponds nearby.

11:18 AM Mr. Red

Mr. Pink, you need to buy the house with a poll then we can come party at your place ALL the time

11:20 AM Mr. Brown

Poll

Flubbed the second o like I would

11:25 AM Mr. Red

lol - I see that now oops - sorry Mr. Silver

11:47 AM Mr. Blue

Get a house with a pole

A stripper pole

11:47 AM Mr. Silver
It's OK Mr. Red, I didn't notice.  I was thinking about how picking up leeches swimming in Mr. Blue's ponds would be OK compared to some of my workload today.

12:28 PM Mr. Pink

Do you guys ever watch vbs.tv?

or the vices guide to everything?

12:30 PM Mr. Blue

Yeah

          (snip)

There was one where they went to some place in Africa.

A coastal city where there was just filth everywhere

Like people were BMing on the beach. You couldn't walk on the beach because there was so much human excrement

12:45 PM Mr. Silver
"BM-ing on the Beach" was the last and least successful of the Frankie and Annette beach party films.

12:45 PM Mr. Blue

...but has garnered a cult following

12:46 PM Mr. Silver

Yes.  A lot of midnight showings in small German and Japanese theaters.

12:47 PM Mr. Blue

Ah, Germans too?

12:48 PM Mr. Silver

That's the rumor I've heard.

1:15 PM Mr. Pink

I read yesterday that Casey Anthony only Googled chloroform 1 time, not 86 like originally said. But 1 is still pretty bad when your child disappears,

1:18 PM Mr. Silver

Which, of course, pops up the memory of the smartly-dressed woman coming through my checkout, right before Halloween, during my time as a clerk at the supermarket. She was purchasing a package of straight-razor blades, can of Draino, and a bag of apples.

She put them down on the belt, contemplated them a moment, and said "This looks really bad, doesn't it."

Me - "Yup"

1:25 PM Mr. Yellow

I once has a clerk say something about my purchases. Deck of cards, bottle of syrup, bottle of rum, candles, and a box of condoms. "Looks like a fun night planned!"
