[12:33
PM] Mr. Brown.:
I
love how China still cannot predict where that space station is going
to hit
[12:37
PM]
I
loved the map from...yesterday?
"It's
going to come down anywhere from here to here."
(Entire
globe except the poles)
[12:38
PM] Mr. Brown.:
Yep
lol
[12:38
PM]
"People
in Antarctica will be safe."
[12:38
PM] Mr. Brown.:
The
latest is them saying if its going to hit your country, we will tell
ya.
See
it streaming across the sky towards you.
[12:39
PM]
Phone
rings...
[12:39
PM] Mr. Brown.:
“It's
in your country.”
[12:39
PM]
(Chinese
astrophysicist one phone) "We...uh...kept getting a voicemail
error."
[12:39
PM] Mr. Brown.:
lol
I
don't think all of it will burn up, it is rather large
We
don't normally get a lot of space junk and meteors landing around
here
[12:54
PM] Mr. Blue:
cuz
it burns up
Most
of it probably lands either in the oceans or the arctic/antarctic
since that comprises like 85% of the earth's surface
[12:55
PM] Mr. Brown.:
I
was just thinking of the places that see the most stuff coming down,
like Russia
[12:55
PM] Mr. Blue:
It's
the biggest place so it'll see the most
Apparently
there are zero impact craters in Pennsylvania
which
means we're due
[1:00
PM]
It's
spelled doomed, not due
[1:04
PM] Mr. Brown.:
lol
Maybe
the way the earth rotates, we just don't get hit
[1:05
PM] Mr. Blue:
Quebec
has a bunch, but it's pretty big
the
ones in Quebec are massive and obvious too
[1:24
PM]
"Nothing-to-See-Here
Circle Lake"
Wonder
what ancient people thought about these perfect circles.
Sort
of wonder...be fair, I know legends of them.
I
guess I'm maybe more interested in the middle people.
[1:41
PM] Mr. Brown.:
Ancient
man standing on top mountain seeing large round crater, thinks back
to when he was sitting on the beach and got up. hmm I leave crater
were my balls were. yep must be the Great Spirit's balls crater.
This
is a special place
[1:41
PM]
The
people who were not steeped in mythology...but not heavy science
believers
"Uh...God
did it?"
"Why?"
"It's...a
mystery?"
[1:42
PM] Mr. Blue:
this
one touches on it in the last paragraph
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serpent_Mound_crater
[1:58
PM]
Serpent
Mound...
2
nights ago, Mrs. Silver calls out from other room: "You know
what the Serpent Mound is?"
"Yes!"
...
...
...
"You
wanted me to tell you...didn't you?"
"YES!"
"Sorry.
Its - (etc)"
[2:00
PM] Mr. Brown.:
That's
where the natives killed a giant snake and buried it
lol
[2:00
PM]
heh
"It's
a big ol' mound of serpents."
[2:01
PM] Mr. Brown.:
That
anaconda did not want none
“And
so after the Serpent Mound was made, women throughout the tribe that
had buns were brought to the mound to see if they were worthy.”
[1:42
PM]
Oh,
before I forget
Magic
Mrs. Silver...
Camera,
day before yesterday – Took a picture of Silver Junior on the fully
charged battery.
Yesterday
AM, – wanted to take an Easter morning photo of Mrs. Silver
"You
will NOT take a picture of me."
"Oh
come on." (THUNK!)
Broom
has fallen right behind me.
"You
bumped into it."
"I
was nowhere near it. Look."
"Huh..."
I
leave...sneak around the corner when she isn't looking. Hold up
the camera. Put my finger on the button...
And
it turns off.
Go
to turn it on.
"Charge
Battery"
"This
was FULL!"
(looks)
"What?"
"You
DRAINED the bloody BATTERY to keep me from taking a picture!"
"Hmmm.
There's another battery. It's charged."
"No.
I want to take some pictures and I'm not having you kill the second
one too."
(the
end)
[1:47
PM] Mr. Brown.:
Shut
off your spiritual energy for a moment, I would like to take a
picture
[1:48
PM]
yup
[2:36
PM] Mr. Brown.:
I
bet if i thought back hard enough i can find times i have done
something
probably
all of us, actually
She
seems to be more in tune though
[2:38
PM]
She
can be downright creepy
She
had two people she gave tarot readings to call her last week.
In the one case it was a "that will never happen"
rejection, and the other the two of them tried to interpret the
results and couldn't explain the reading.
Both
calls were "OMG you were absolutely correct and it made no sense
at all at the time!"
[2:40
PM] Mr. Brown.:
I
have moments of clairvoyance. I think everybody does
[2:40
PM]
Yes
(because
this is a sim)
That
came up yesterday
[2:40
PM] Mr. Brown.:
i
get a lot of Deja Vu
[2:42
PM]
Two
of us had this story:
"One
day I picked up the phone and there was someone on the other end
already. When I said hello, it was the person I intended to
call. They had also intended to call me. Neither of us
had dialed any numbers yet."
Absurdly
impossible.
Proof
this isn't real.
[2:43
PM] Mr. Brown.:
“Oops”
says the people in control, “we connected that a little too quick.”
[2:43
PM]
It
is beyond far-fetched to even make contact with another person even
if the phone services somehow managed to screw up and leave open
lines between two people.
On
top of that, have it be two people who know each other.
On
top of that, those two people intended to call each other and at the
same time.
POG
[2:44
PM] Mr. Brown.:
Personal
Ocular Guidance?
[2:49
PM]
"Proof
Of God", Mr. Brown
I'd
use "POS" (Proof of Sim) but POS means something else more
useful in daily life
POSOS?
“Proof Of Sim Or Something”?
POP
"Proof Of Puppeteers"?
Eh.
POG appeals to the more heavily religious. I'm a spiritual
fellow but not very religious
Tell
a Catholic a "Proof of God" and they'll hug you.
"Proof
its all an illusion in a simulator" and they'll hang you.
[2:11
PM] Mr. Blue:
i
didn't know Jason Clarke was Australian
he
only does American accents
[2:31
PM] Mr. Brown.:
Well
Christopher Lambert is French
just
learned English for the Highlander stuff
lol
[2:31
PM]
Sort
of
[2:49
PM] Mr. Blue:
You
ever see the sequel?
[3:11
PM] Mr. Brown.:
I
have seen all the highlanders
[3:12
PM] Mr. Blue:
Is
2 bad?
[3:12
PM]
2
is bad
Bad
enough i stopped there
[3:13
PM] Mr. Brown.:
They
go down hill after 1
Same
thing basically, just new foe
[3:13
PM]
(Sean
Connery voiceover) “We fought for thousands of years for a sucky
prize”
Much
like Midichloreans...
They
took a perfectly good mystical setting with little to no explanation
of the meaning and impetus of the Immortals and their drive to finish
the Quickening...
And
said "We'll make them aliens and they won't remember."
non-spoiler...they
pretty much tell you right away
[3:18
PM] Mr. Brown.:
SCIENTOLOGY
Win
the prize – “You're an alien”
hmm
But
is the last one really the winner?
[3:22
PM]
"I
won mortality. And...um...some sort of awareness thing? It
wasn't worth it.”
(Sean
Connery voiceover) "And so...armed with the power of The
Quickening as 'The One', McLeod settled into his antiques business
until he died, absolutely terrified of being hurt the first time he
cut himself in the kitchen making dinner."
(Scottish
with French accent) "It's ne healin'! It's ne
healin'!"
(Roxanne)
"JEsus...it's a little nick. I'll get a Bandaid."
[two
weeks later]
"Know
what? I'm out. You've been hiding under a blanket since
you bumped your toe and I've had enough."
"But
it HURT lass! It HURT! Ye canna ken!"
“Yes
I can. Welcome to everyone else's experience.”
[3:41
PM] Mr. Blue:
An
Egyptian with Spanish name and Scottish accent
[3:42
PM]
Yes...who
spent years in Japan and got a sword made in a technique that didn't
exist for centuries.
[3:43
PM] Mr. Blue:
“Highlander:
The Anachronism”
I
guess we are to assume they spent time elsewhere and lost their
accents/names
But
he spent enough time in Scotland to pick up a Scottish accent but not
a Scottish name?
[3:43
PM]
McRamirez
Sama
Maybe
that's what ancient Egyptian sounds like
[3:45
PM] Mr. Blue:
"The
Kurgan" works. Make them so ancient we don't know wtf they were
supposed to look or sound like
[3:46
PM]
So
basically McLeod should have started as a Pict or something?
Fought
the Romans
[3:46
PM] Mr. Blue:
Make
them like Huns and Scythians, yes
[3:47
PM]
I
would have liked that
[3:47
PM] Mr. Blue:
Nobody
knows what they looked or sounded like so the F'd up accents and
appearances won't matter
[3:47
PM]
Gives
a better sense of the extreme time period we're talking about.
They
should all have shown up together anyway and been all dead centuries
earlier.
