00:51:18 <nslater> it's quite weird in york, the snow is really powdery
00:51:24 <nslater> it's like it's actually just lots of salt
00:51:33 <nslater> like, watery salt, i guess
00:51:35 <nslater> very strange
00:51:55 <danja_> never been to new york whats it like? and yeah alot of salt here aswell and half the shops have water everywhere lol
00:52:13 <nsh> WAHT IS SANOW?
00:52:20 <nsh> uh, hello, that is
00:52:39 <nsh> just had to look up the origins of the names "harry" and "hermione" in the harry potter books
00:52:48 <nslater> nope, not new york - just plain ol' york
00:52:55 <danja_> never read harry potter seen the films tho
00:52:56 <nsh> because finngirl suggested they might be a reference to Steppenwolf
00:53:12 <danja_> ah ol york
00:53:12 <nsh> which was a silly conjecture
00:53:19 <nslater> but what i mean is that the snow is "like" salk
00:53:20 <nsh> although hermione is apparently from shakespeare
00:53:21 <nslater> erm, salt
00:53:24 <nslater> it's really powdery
00:54:12 <danja_> Lol i wish it wasnt so cold here, snow does make it feel like christmas but its to cold lol
00:54:18 <danja_> what you doing for christmas?
00:54:21 <nslater> imagine someone pouring 2 inches of moist salt on the pavements, that's what it's like. very surreal

00:58:39 * nsh grabs the candlestick, for protection...
00:58:43 <nslater> or are you Becky Alison Broady's daughter?
00:59:12 <nslater> nsh, i used to know a guy who always carried some rope with him
00:59:26 <nslater> i asked him once, why he did this
00:59:32 * danja_ (real one) say's behave, the poor girls got an italian keyboard in front of her
00:59:45 <nslater> and he responded that rope can be useful in all sorts of situations
00:59:52 <nslater> tho, as far as i know, he only used it once
00:59:56 <nslater> and i happened to be with him]
01:00:01 <nslater> and it was a lifesaver
01:00:17 <nslater> we were stuck at a farmhouse in the middle of the countryside
01:00:22 <nslater> and we needed to get to the main village
01:00:33 <nslater> but the only transport was an old Ford Prefect sitting in the driver
01:00:34 <danja_> Talking about rope? lol
01:00:36 <nslater> erm, drive
01:00:56 <nslater> but, apart from being over 300 years old, the drivers door didn't actually have a latch to stay closed
01:00:57 <danja_> ah lol
01:01:09 <nslater> so he wound down the windows, and tied it closed with his rope
01:01:12 <nslater> and we drove into town
01:01:20 <danja_> what music do you like?
01:01:21 <nslater> scariest car journey of my life
01:01:45 <nslater> danja aka becky, anything which isn't totally shit
01:01:47 <nslater> how about you?
01:01:49 <nslater> i could list some stuff if you like

17:31:00 <[bjoern]> It happens with classics.
17:31:20 <clsn> There are versions on youtube in shakespearean English, in all kinds of different dialects... Years'n'years ago a friend and I did one in Klingon.
17:31:55 <clsn> People were literally (by which I mean "literally", not "figuratively") rolling in the aisles when they realized what we were doing.

17:32:40 <phenny> figurature: 33
17:34:11 <clsn> Figurature sounds like a sort of mass-noun for sculpture.\

17:42:18 <[bjoern]> Hey clsn you are the resident yaml expert, no?
17:42:49 <clsn> [bjoern]: I sure as hell hope not; I hardly know squat about yaml.  In fact, I may actually not even know squat.
17:42:58 <clsn> You must be thinking of a different clsn.
17:43:26 <[bjoern]> I just picked you because you seemed more alive than the rest.
17:43:55 <clsn> and because of my awesome good looks too, right? Right??
17:44:34 <[bjoern]> .gc "Those dollars are looking good on you"

17:46:04 <clsn> Too bad; I'd hoped they'd be good for SOMEthing.
17:46:23 <[bjoern]> I am often thinking the same thing.
17:48:46 <sbp> offs. probably on tomorrow
17:48:49 <sbp> Merry Christmas
17:49:40 <[bjoern]> Santa B. Palmer is getting busy. Expect presents. Or Ruten.

22:46:53 <phenny> [bjoern]: "Determined" (nl to en, translate.google.com)
22:47:08 <[bjoern]> The word here would be "certainly" I think
22:48:37 <charl> ah, yes
22:48:48 <charl> Wouldn't you usually say "bestimmt mit Schnee"?
22:49:24 <[bjoern]> It is an affirmation, "If by that time there is snow, then my answer is 'yes'"
22:50:07 <charl> ah!
22:53:26 <[bjoern]> phenny, de nl "Da frage ich mich: geht das auch mit anspruchsvolleren Texten, wie zum Beispiel diesem hier"?
22:53:27 <phenny> [bjoern]: "Dan vraag ik me af: Is dat ook met de meer veeleisende teksten, zoals deze" (de to nl, translate.google.com)
22:53:57 <charl> almost...
22:54:26 <charl> "Is dat ook" should be "Gaat dat ook" (geht das auch, should be a literal translation)
22:54:42 <charl> also it dropped the "hier"
22:55:15 <[bjoern]> I think that's quite okay, out of context the "hier" is redundant in the german text
22:55:42 <[bjoern]> with context, it could refer to a previous subject, or be a self-reference

23:16:27 <charl> haha, it doesn't recognize "I'm going into labor" as childbirth, it thinks it's arbeit.
23:16:50 <charl> This reminds me of that back-and-forth English-Chinese translator.
23:17:06 <[bjoern]> I think it is quite possible to collect testimony that it in fact is Arbeit.

23:18:10 <phenny> [bjoern]: Mutilation, and always seems to be a string using Google Translate multiple times with different languages.
