01:19 * nightwind pulls Schism close...like a pillow or a stuffie

01:30 <Schism> Swoooord.

01:30 * Schism also snuggles in, like a stuffie might. As stuffies are of course not inanimate.

01:32 <nightwind> depends on the stuffie Schism...

01:53 <Finwe> “Mind you, the stuff for the girls was just as depressing. It seemed to be nearly all horses. Most of them were grinning. Horses, Death felt, shouldn’t grin. Any horse that was grinning was planning something.”

05:53 <ConfusionRift> S Q U E A K !

05:56 <Finwe> On the second day of Hogswatch I…sent my true love back A nasty little letter, hah, yes indeed, and a partridge in a pear tree–

05:56 * Schism offers Finwe a snow globe.

05:59 <Finwe> “Though here’s a tip, though. Just ‘ho, ho, ho’ will do. Don’t say, ‘Cower, brief mortals’ unless you want them to grow up to be moneylenders or some such.”

06:00 * Finwe shakes the snow globe.

06:00 * Schism introduces Finwe to Mr. Marvolo Bent, chief accountant.

06:02 <Finwe> There's also Marvolo Gaunt, wizard.

06:06 <Finwe> Let's get there and sleigh them.

06:07 <Finwe> That was a pune or play on words, Albert. I don't know if you noticed.

06:08 <Schism> It is known that the Patrician's artistic sensibilities can be irritated by excessive or particularly egregious use of the Pune or play-on-words, which, if the Mail Order business is anything to go by, he places in the same category of offense as mime artistry or abstract modern art.

06:25 <Finwe> “And they are correct. The universe clearly operates for the benefit of humanity. This can be readily seen from the convenient way the sun comes up in the morning, when people are ready to start the day.”

06:26 <Finwe> o3o

06:36 <Finwe> “Amazin’,” said Ridcully. He knocked the ashes out of his pipe on Hex’s “Anthill Inside” sticker, causing Ponder to wince. “This thing’s a kind of big artificial brain, then?”

06:37 <Schism> Finwe: Ah yes, the introduction of Hex.

06:48 <Schism> “I’ve unlocked the exceptionally rare Thundere class.”

07:50 <PinkieShy> I mean i do that sorta now..

07:50 <PinkieShy> but there is times the game dips in FPS badly.

07:55 <Finwe> “Makes about as much sense as a lot of things, I suppose,” said Ridcully. “After all, there’s a Tooth Fairy, ain’ there? You might as well wonder why we have a God of Wine and not a God of Hangovers—”

07:55 <Finwe> He turned out to be Ohgod of Hangovers.

08:09 <ConfusionRift> PinkieShy: Yay, particles!

08:10 <Finwe> “Very occult bird, your basic raven,” he said. “Blind Io the Thunder God used to have these myffic ravens that flew everywhere and told him everything that was going on.”

08:11 <Finwe> “Weeelll…you know how he’s not got eyes in his face, just these, like, you know, free-floating eyeballs that go and zoom around…” The raven coughed in species embarrassment. “Bit of an accident waiting to happen, really.”

08:57 <PinkieShy> ConfusionRift, To give an idea my new pc will be. like 200%-250% better than my current in terms of speed..

08:58 * Shadowed paints PinkieShy's pc Red.

08:58 <PinkieShy> Which means.. my current PC is no better than a potato..

08:58 <Shadowed> Red ones go faster.

17:09 <Cepheid> Guy buys NFT for millions.  Expects to sell it for 48 million.  Gets offer of 3,600.

17:11 <Schism> This is why speculative investment in a big nothing is a scam.

17:11 <Schism> Someone's always, always going to be left holding the bag.

17:12 <Cepheid> Yep.

17:21 <Nightwind_> hi hi

17:26 * Schism snuggles the Nightwind_ and hugs the Cephy and finishes taking her many drugs, then goes to the pharmacy to pick up one more.

17:33 <Finwe> “But…little match girls dying in the snow is part of what the Hogswatch spirit is all about, master,” said Albert desperately. “I mean, people hear about it and say, ‘We may be poorer than a disabled banana and only have mud and old boots to eat, but at least we’re better off than the poor little match girl,’ master. It makes them feel happy and grateful for what they’ve got, see.”

17:34 <Finwe> Miss Schism, Mr Cepheid.

17:37 <Finwe> Mr AppleDash.

17:37 * Finwe doffs his hat.

17:37 <Finwe> “Shortly afterward there was some tinkling music and a very bright light and two rather affronted angels appeared at the other end of the alley, but Albert threw snowballs at them until they went away.”

17:40 <Finwe> “Credulous: having views about the world, the universe and humanity’s place in it that are shared only by very unsophisticated people and the most intelligent and advanced mathematicians and physicists.”

18:28 * Schism makes a concoction involving Mustrum Ridcully's "Wow-Wow Sauce".

18:36 <Schism> Of course, Wow-Wow Sauce might not be so troublesome were it not for the inclusion of such divers elements as sulfur and saltpetre.

18:36 <Finwe> o3o

18:43 <Schism> There is, additionally, grimchi, but the creation thereof has caused... incidents.

18:45 * Ali flops ovre Schism as unicorn slow plays X Dive

18:55 * Schism snugs the Ali. "Ah, Easter Bunny Roll."

18:55 <Ali> Yus, thats the current event

18:56 <Ali> I got Gaea Armor X by pure luck

18:56 * Nightwind_ waves

18:56 <Ali> His immunity to spikes is a massive boon

18:56 * Schism also puts her hair up.

18:56 <Ali> Sadly I need to wait for the dailies to reset

18:57 <Ali> Else there's no way in hell to progress the story

19:00 <Nightwind_> how are you all today

19:00 *** Nightwind_ is now known as Nightwind

20:49 <Schism> This weekend is going to be both more and less frustrating than some before.

20:49 <Schism> Good Friday, okay, great, I'm going to be paid $40/hour, I'll take it.

20:50 <Schism> However, OUR TOOLS ARE DOWN AGAIN.  The ones we use.  As tier 2s.  Those tools, the tools T2s use, the tools used by T2s to do T2 tasks.  Those tools.

20:50 <Schism> (got em right here)

20:50 <Nightwind> those tools seem to go down awful often

20:51 <Schism> Well, in the previous situation, it was simply a configuration issue with my box.  This time, it's for...

20:51 <Finwe> “Is it just me, or is that a rather greedy and selfish way to behave? In my family we just hung up very small socks,” said the Senior Wrangler. “A sugar pig, a toy soldier, a couple of oranges and that was it. Hah, turns out people with whole pillowcases were cornering the market, eh?”

20:51 * Schism throws her hands into the air, creating sparkly things. "Everybody!"

20:52 * Finwe noms on Schism's T2 tools.

20:53 <Schism> In Lancre, people slept with the cows and awoke with the chickens.

20:53 <Schism> (Poorly-worded sentences can cause misunderstandings.)

20:55 <Nightwind> lol

20:56 <Schism> Finwe: I still love how Carrot is an innocent seeming gentleman who'll then plunge an (entirely nonmagical, and therefore more real) sword into your chest if you're irredeemable.

20:58 <Schism> The reinforced marble pillar behind one might also suffer a modicum of damage.
