Although he deserved it... [07:57] (and yeah, I would have voted for "Are we there yet?" :D ) [07:57] <[SEVMAN]Miguel> with 7 votes, people clearly prefer to read the SUBTITLES [07:57] symbolic vote for AREWETHEREYET :-) [07:57] haven't seen that one... [07:57] <[SEVMAN]Miguel> (Journey: 1, WORSE: 3) [07:57] <[SEVMAN]Miguel> Right, that's a wrap [07:57] mm yum [07:57] * [SEVMAN]Miguel is now known as Miguel [07:57] i'm kinda hungry for a wrap [07:57] * Miguel changes topic to 'Talking about contents of Ep3 results in a kick-ban! (PS: the Titanic sinks)' [07:57] oh look, miguel shed his clothes. [07:57] <*EofS*> Does it have chicken in it? [07:58] aaah! look away! [07:58] Oh, well. Now that I am officially back (Have been for a week) I will try and attend here more often. [07:58] <*EofS*> *Looks with interest* [07:58] before we close the transcript, anyone want to complain about sev to me? [07:58] Get an evasive response in real time [07:58] darn you for reminding me I haven't eaten since lunchtime! [07:58] yeah; nag, nag, nag. [07:58] i'm done. [07:58] ;) [07:58] nova: much the same as on the DB :-) [07:58] yes [07:58] ---------- THE LOG STOPS HERE --------- [07:58] :-) [07:58] <*EofS*> I didn't eat from yesterday lunchtime until this evening ;0) [07:58] well, I'm off to go sleep now [07:59] * Leander waves and clouds [07:59] Emma: ouch [07:59] <*EofS*> John - yeah, when you gonna change wherefore ;0) [07:59] goodnight, thingee 4 [07:59] night L [07:59] * Whitestar8472 surfs [07:59] JC: Complain? [07:59] G'night Leander [07:59] bye leander [07:59] <*EofS*> Well I slept through yesterday evening... [07:59] <*EofS*> Night Leander [07:59] bye leander [07:59] :O [07:59] johncook; i guess i lost the heart for constructive criticism [07:59] Glor: just reading the last few posts on the DB [07:59] I'll go too, I can't keep track of what's going on anyway [07:59] ta-ta! [07:59] * TheAmnesiacOne has quit IRC (Quit: ) [07:59] <*EofS*> *Dittos Johan* [07:59] * Leander has quit IRC (Quit: and since I'm leaving..."omg, episode 3...anakin turns evil! *shock and "surprise", waaaah!" ;-)) [07:59] does anyone have a sensibly-formatted log? I have a log, but chatzilla has somewhat made a mess of things [08:00] no, sorry [08:00] <*EofS*> Should Leander have a little banny surprise when he comes back? ;0) [08:00] sorry, I'm using Chatzilla too :\ [08:00] I'll send mine then [08:00] I have a log but missed the first few minutes [08:00] JC, you will have mail [08:00] I have mIRC log. [08:00] I think... [08:00] thanx miguel and thanx for running it - good wordplays :-) [08:00] you know that you can control the format of the chatzilla log? [08:00] <*EofS*> You weren't here from the start though... [08:00] Oh, right... I forgot. [08:01] well, I'm going as well... good night everyone! [08:01] Anyone wanna see a recent pic of me, BTW?

[08:01] G'night, Glorendil [08:01] yeah sure, thunderdragon [08:01] show us your fierceness [08:01] okies, sure [08:01] * Glorendil has left #sevtrek [08:01] <*EofS*> Rawr! [08:01] wear that majel dress and prance around for us [08:01] <*EofS*> Wherefore am I getting ill again! [08:01] bend over, this won't hurt a bit [08:01] *kick* ;) [08:02] trying to scare ppl TD ? :-) [08:02] eofs: lack of sleep. [08:02] ok, i'm leaving as well. bye all! [08:02] bye wizzard [08:02] <*EofS*> Good riddance! [08:02] <*EofS*> I mean, bye! [08:02] I too am off, to post the winning punchlines and add insignias [08:02] ...and contemplate the nagging? [08:02] say hi to the women :-) [08:02] log's away on a very fast pigeon [08:02] 'Night, Guido [08:02] <*EofS*> But I'm fine for sleep. I mean, I got two whole hours on Tuesday night! [08:02] bye Guido, thanks for helping [08:02] thomas: if they ever get up [08:02] If I can connect to the ftp... [08:02] <*EofS*> And change Wherefore? ;0) [08:02] * Wizzard has quit IRC (Quit: Chatzilla 0.9.68a [Firefox 1.0.4/20050511]) [08:03] nova; yes, will have to read your and E's posts again and reply [08:03] ThunderDragon: are you trying to access upload.sevspace.com? if so.. there's a big nono, for now [08:03] E: nah, I like it the way it is :-) [08:03] E: would it make you scream if I told you I changed the "thou" to "thy" when I sent the print version to my syndicate? [08:03] AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [08:03] oh sorry, not my turn to scream. [08:03] it's still not gramatically correct but it's one step closer [08:04] don't worry, i still have all my parts. [08:04] lol [08:04] I am acessing Telia. [08:04] I'llb e sure not to select finalists to do with castration ever again [08:04] <*EofS*> What would that make the punchline now? I can't check the strip for obvious reasons... [08:04] lol! [08:04] wherfore art thy warranty beta [08:05] that's right [08:05] I haven't updated the archives with that version [08:05] that was just for the syndicate who goes on to send it to newspapers [08:05] johncook: don't worry. the sex theme will stick with or without punchlines to aid us. [08:05] snip snip [08:05] johncook: ..all part of puberty. [08:06] johncook: *checks age* ...and.. um.. after-puberty. [08:06] <*EofS*> "Why are your warranty Beta?" Makes as little sense as before [08:06] I don't mind sex themes but when the discussion turns to chopping off male bits, I get decidedly uncomfortable [08:07] <*EofS*> Anyway, I thought you were all strict about wanting to preserve the original quotation... [08:07] EofS: I know it still is not correct but it's more in sync with the general public's perception of the meaning of 'wherefore' [08:07] *snip snip* :-) [08:07] (gnn, my glasses are trying to fall off my nose. STAY!) [08:07] JC: I just rememberd... My mirror of the Sev Desktop thingie has probably gotten its URL changed. [08:07] E: it was a compromise between grammar and quotation [08:08] <*EofS*> "Where are your warranty Beta" doesn't exactly make sense either [08:08] <*EofS*> Why wouldn't you accept our compromises between grammar and quotation a month ago? What's changed? [08:08] now that you mention it [08:08] that "thou" did annoy me a bit too [08:09] "where are you warranty" doesn't really ring [08:09] wow [08:09] The suggestions back then were too far away from the original [08:09] i would just write "Where is your warranty, Beta?" [08:09] I think it was something like 'wherefore art thou not under warranty" [08:09] http://web.telia.com/~u61111937/archive/DSC02232.JPG <- Warning. Huge pic. (Didn't bother rezising it) [08:09] Nova: but then the joke is completely lost [08:10] <*EofS*> Then maybe it's a BAD JOKE [08:10] ThunderDragon: you look very green. healthy for a plant. [08:10] maybe [08:10] BAD joke! Sit! Stay.... [08:10] sigh [08:10] here we go again [08:10] put the cartoon down! [08:10] round gazillion :-) [08:10] i can't believe we're still talking about this :-) [08:10] <*EofS*> I can't remember what we were suggesting. I'd check the log from that session, but obviously I can't [08:11] and they're off again, with a nice right hook from jc countered by a left from E... [08:11] <*EofS*> E's fighting tonight with the support of the English language behind her [08:11] and I'm fighting with the judges in my back pocket [08:11] well, they got your ass, then. [08:12] <*EofS*> She's also received notes of support from the Austrians, Dutch, Germans, Danish and Swedish [08:12] i bet they're kicking your ass ;) [08:12] but, just sit on them, and all is okay. [08:12] how about we make the next sev poll one where everyone can vote on the version of the punchline we use [08:12] <*EofS*> I'm certainly not kissing it anymore... [08:12] ooh, a fat ass joke ;-) [08:12] <*EofS*> ;0) [08:12] ...thats below the belt ladies and gents [08:12] <*EofS*> Would the poll include whatever came second in the JS? [08:12] ...the ref should get in and take action... [08:13] Thomas... that's atrocious! [08:13] no, I mean different versions of the wherefore punchline [08:13] varying degrees of gramatical correctness [08:13] ...jc now redeploys the "old english" defense to counter the "grammar" attack... [08:14] ...will E be able to get out of this one ?... [08:14] ... next week, same time, same channel ... [08:14] <*EofS*> But my point, and other's point, is that if you cannot make it grammatically correct and possible to recognise the quotation, then it *shouldn't be there at all* [08:15] it's called "artistic license" i think; artists can do and get away with anything [08:15] <*EofS*> And whilst you're changing it, since the quotation being correct is soooooooo important, how about you actually get the rest of it right. "Oh Beta, Beta" NOT "Beta, Oh Beta" [08:15] *ding *ding* ...and that ends round 1 [08:15] yes'm [08:16] <*EofS*> A simple test for everyone.... [08:16] <*EofS*> What does the word "therefore" mean [08:16] how DO these commentators yabber incessantly about things that are happening for everyone to see anyway ? [08:17] hence [08:17] "as a consequence of" [08:17] <*EofS*> (Bonus question for extra credit: Which play does "Oh Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?" come from. And which play does the skull in hand thing come from?" ;0) [08:17] (okay, granted, that was my interpretation...) [08:17] JC: compromise ? put a poll up asking about the meaning of "wherefore" ? [08:17] <*EofS*> What, you mean, therefore *doesn't mean* there? [08:17] <*EofS*> I'm shocked and amazed! [08:18] apples and oranges [08:18] (Romeo and Juliet. And Hamlet? I'm crap at Shakespeare...) [08:18] None is my answer. [08:18] that's like saying because i can drive an automatic i can drive a stick [08:18] <*EofS*> (Michelle - you get both bonus points, you're top of the class) [08:18] (yay! :D Do I get cookies - or at least tea? ;) ) [08:19] <*EofS*> But if people *know* therefore doesn't mean there, then why should they make the assumption wherefore means where? [08:19] you can have some coffee [08:19] <*EofS*> You get a gold star *sticks it on your head* [08:19] yeah, a stick is nothing like an auto... you gotta make sure you get the leaves all nice and comfy else it's hell on your backside [08:19] * Whitestar8472 is now known as Goldstar8472 [08:19] because ppl make the EASY connection when they don't know something [08:19] wherefore => where [08:19] (lol Ben!) [08:20] not the HARD connection: therefore =/= there => wherefore =/= where [08:20] Well, wendy just got up so it's breakfast time at the cook household [08:20] <*EofS*> I forgot how good the comments were to this cartoon [08:20] its called pattern recognition [08:20] <*EofS*> "Reading the transcript it seems that the argument for keeping the nonsense version of the punchline is that the readers are all ignorant about Old English and won't care. As a reader, I'd like to say that personally, I feel mildly insulted by that." [08:20] ppl read by finding patterns in words [08:20] Hear hear [08:20] should we be encouraging laziness and illiteracy in the readers by giving them the popular though grammatically incorrect answers then? [08:20] <*EofS*> That's from someone who doesn't even speak English as her first language [08:20] (to Emma and the commenter) [08:20] they don't know a word but see the part "where" => pattern found [08:20] will chat with you guys at the next JS and in the meantime, see you on the DB [08:20] <*EofS*> (Love hte new name Michelle) [08:21] im saying: [08:21] this is a cartoon [08:21] not an english class [08:21] <*EofS*> Wherefore=where is a pattern they can make but therefore=/=there, so wherefore=/=where isn't a pattern they can make? [08:21] (heh ;) Goldstar with purple-semi-rimmed glasses *nods* Which keep trying to fall off my nose. STAY!!) [08:21] the joke is everything herree [08:21] here* [08:21] nope [08:21] <*EofS*> And the joke ISN'T FUNNY and DOESN'T MAKE SENSE [08:22] because 1) they know the word therefore [08:22] and [08:22] cptthomas: sorry to leave you in the lurch on this one [08:22] <*EofS*> "Ooh look, it's a Shakespeare line, that means it must fit" [08:22] I'm sneaking out while everyone's arguing [08:22] 2) it's not present next to wherefore => out of sight out of mind [08:22] * Disconnected Session Close: Sat May 21 08:22:24 2005
