[11:49
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Don
M used to sing to me
"Shine
bright like McGreeeeeeen"
[11:51
AM]
Hehe
[11:52
AM] Mr. McGreen:
My
friend recently worked with him
Same
story "great guy...not so reliable"
[11:53
AM] Mr. Blue:
Is
he still at Planet Fitness?
[11:54
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Not
anymore
[11:56
AM] Mr. Blue:
It
seems weird that someone so chronically lazy could get through the
army
[11:58
AM]
Moon
Flabness
"You
work here?"
Don
"Not when no one's lookin'."
If
I hit the lottery I'm going to open some Moon Flabness clubs right
next door to Planet Fitness places.
Party
food, big TVs, recliners, bar.
[10:48
AM]
[10:52
AM] Mr. Blue:
"We'd
have spent more time on the code if we had known that 30 years later
nerds and dweebs would be trying to decipher and source it."
[10:56
AM]
Heh
[10:57
AM] Mr. Brown:
This
code here brings up a jpeg of a sail boat
[11:06
AM]
(T-800)
"I am a human analog...metal endoskeleton covered with
organics. Originally programmed to find and terminate humans as
well as other coding for showing Powerpoint slides and checking data is
correct."
[11:07
AM] Mr. Blue:
I
suppose Skynet could've just appropriated harmless code to make it do
something useful but completely different
[11:08
AM]
(standing
at police counter) "Your duty roster times do not correlate with
the schedule on your desk...I'll be back."
[11:08
AM] Mr. Blue:
But
why would his vision need to see the code anyway?
[11:08
AM]
It
wouldn't.
Visual
depiction of a computer running code for the benefit of mere humans.
[11:08
AM] Mr. Blue:
Exactly
[11:08
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Maybe
for remoting in?
[11:09
AM] Mr. Blue:
The
code would be running in the background, like a computer
And
his vision is already so shitty without all the crap overlaid.
[11:09
AM] Mr. McGreen:
LOL
[11:09
AM] Mr. Blue:
They
can perfect organic tissue and human movement but everything is all
red?
[11:10
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Stop
ruining my childhood, MR. BLUE
[11:10
AM] Mr. Brown:
Predator
He
got to choose his vision spectrum
But
they ran out of budget to give him “regular”. lol
[11:10
AM]
(hostile
asks a question. Terminator freezes in place...sound of floppy
disk spinning and reader arm shifting sectors. Looks up) "FUCK
YOU ASSHOLE.”
[11:20
AM] Mr. Blue:
Predator's
grainy vision made more sense... His tech was pretty wonky
[11:15
AM]
(hostile
asks a question. Terminator stops moving...sound of floppy disk
spinning and reader shifting sectors. Looks up) "SYNTAX
ERROR. AY COLON FORWARD SLASH."
"Whatchu
call me, asshole???"
"STACK
OVERFLOW."
[11:19
AM] Mr. McGreen:
I'm
gonna start calling people I'm angry with a "stack overflow".
I'd
rather have a Terminator after me than a Predator.
[11:21
AM] Mr. Blue:
Maybe
the Predator visual equipment is just not suited for certain
environments. Maybe something in our atmosphere that's not present
in theirs screws up the tech.
Although
just because the Terminator vision looked shitty to us doesn't mean
it was shitty for it.
Maybe
his vision is *so* good that it simply cannot be conveyed in film and
what we see as pixellation and lack of color is actually high detail
[11:22
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Or
maybe that's all a killer robot needs to see
[11:23
AM] Mr. Blue:
Yep
[11:23
AM] Mr. McGreen:
They
don't need the visual definition we do
[11:23
AM] Mr. Blue:
Maybe
he was in a low power mode since he wasn't actually doing anything
particularly taxing.
In
T2 they show him as having superior night vision, driving at high
speeds with no headlights.
[11:24
AM] Mr. McGreen:
T2
was such a good action movie its almost ridiculous
[11:24
AM] Mr. Blue:
Yeah
[12:19
PM] Mr. McGreen:
My
chest really hurts. Mr. Brown, can I use some of your FMLA
[12:20
PM] Mr. Brown:
Sounds
like you need more than that.
Electric
shock?
[12:21
PM] Mr. McGreen:
No
no, just to go home and take a nap
Or
die. IDK
I
could just open a window I suppose.
[12:21
PM] Mr. Brown:
For
chest pains, you need me to give you a swift punch in the chest while
yelling “don't you die on me!”
[12:21
PM] Mr. McGreen:
I'd
be wide awake and you'd be trying to give me mouth to mouth
[12:22
PM] Mr. Brown:
You
need a very spicy pepper
That
will wake you up and cure all pains
[12:23
PM] Mr. McGreen:
Suppository
pepper
[12:24
PM] Mr. Brown:
You
could eat one
Or
you can crush it up and rub it on the sore muscle
[12:51
PM]
Suppository
always cracks me up.
"Doctor,
he can't take the pill."
"Well
he needs to get it in his system."
"Well
where do you suppose I can just deposit the thing?"
"Hmmm...
Weeeell... I suppoooose we could...(points)."
"(nurse
comprehends) No! ... Wait, really?"
"It
should work... There..."
“I
suppose it could.”
[1:00
PM] Mr. Brown:
Sometimes
you just gotta get that medicine in somehow.
Hehe

#1.
Yesterday on Facebook in response to monuments to Confederate stuff
being torn down. New contact posts a picture of the pyramids.
"Well,
THESE were build by slaves. Are we going to tear THESE down?"
(me,
reply) "They weren't built by slaves. Debunked
decades ago."
"Can
you document that?"
"Well...a
simple google search will give you a dozen...but I'll pick one."
(post)
(5
minutes)
"Thanks...took
it down."
"YW"
#2.
I watched a full video from an ex-marine history teacher laying out
how GWB is criticized for Iraq and Obama lauded, but that GWB won one
of the greatest military victories in modern times and Obama screwed
it all up and gave it away.
There
were some obvious and deliberate omissions of what really happened
with Obama...but it wasn't just now before I remembered why the
teacher was a moron and a total tool.
Specifically:
"You forgot to mention that Saddam was an anchor of stability in
the region and was crushing terrorists before GWB and crew fabricated
a reason to attack in the first place, thereby destabilizing the
entire world and damaging the global economy."
[3:29
PM] Mr. McGreen:
Mr.
Silver!
[3:32
PM]
"So
boo hoo about Obama doing what the Iraqis told him to - according to
the agreements made before he was elected (which you forgot to
mention, professor) - and ISIS coming in. They'd never have
been there if it wasn't for the idiot you're defending."
(next
day)
Had
a fun time after work tearing apart the “GWB was great, Obama was a
villain in Iraq” video.
Didn't
get mobbed either.
Just
an apology from the original poster - "Yeah, I actually went and
looked at a few more videos on that site...I hadn't realized how
alt-right it was."
It's
unusual enough I said anything...must have been in a mood though.
Right
after that I saw the old chestnut: "Well the Democrats
were the ones who put up all those racists statues...what do you have
to say to that?"
[9:05
AM] Mr. Blue:
The
parties pretty much completely swapped platforms post Civil Rights
movement
The
southern Democrats - Dixiecrats or whatever - were the KKK and
segregationists
[9:06
AM]
Yes.
"Yep,
it's true the Democrats were at fault... until about 80 years ago
when the Democrats stopped being the conservatives. Do you know
anyone who was voting age 100 years ago when this argument stopped
being relevant?"
I
got approvals and laughs on that.
[9:10
AM] Mr. Blue:
D'nish
D'souza - or whatever - likes to bring up that Lincoln was a Republican
and the KKK were Democrats because he knows idiots eat it up
[9:10
AM]
Might
as well be blaming the Federalist Party
"They
ripped off native Americans in 1795!"
"Talk
about Racists!"
"And
we have a FEDERAL government! It's the SAME WORD!"
:|
...anyway...
People
are generally stupid about propaganda and few have any sense of history
I
had a slobbering Republican try to school me in the Nazis being "left
wing" based solely on the name of the political party.
"It
was a name chosen on purpose to make you think that. Everything they did came from
classic 'right wing' principles."
"You're
WRONG!"
"Yet
I know what I'm talking about, while you're falling for a scam from
the 1920s that doesn't hold up to even a cursory examination."

Client
- Ragozine, Sal
"We
made our fortune in Italian tabloids before immigrating to the US."
[9:20
AM] Mr. Blue:
Eyyy!
Sally Ragu! Hiyadoin'?
You
ever see the Italian
fascist party HQ?
"We
aren't even going to hide our interest in frightening
totalitarianism."
[9:24
AM]
"We
were going to call it 'Big Face', but marketing says 'Big Brother'
sounds friendlier...even with the evil scowl. What do you think, Benito?"
"Still
unnerving. Write 'yes' behind it a couple hundred times."
