<alexteabaggordon>
it was glorious if you watch it
<elliottcable>
wat
<alexteabaggordon>
:D
<elliottcable>
who the hell is this wanker
<elliottcable>
micahjohnston_ ⑊ hi.
<elliottcable>
I'm not here for long. I have every intention of getting drunk tonight.
<elliottcable>
in other news, *god* I love tmux.
<alexteabaggordon>
elliottcable: comedian
<micahjohnston_>
elliottcable: how is relationship shash
<micahjohnston_>
I remember that was uncertain
<elliottcable>
what?
<elliottcable>
micahjohnston_ ⑊ confus™
<micahjohnston_>
you were talking about it a couple months ago
<micahjohnston_>
just wondering what the outcome was
<elliottcable>
talking about what ...
<elliottcable>
“relationship hash?”
<micahjohnston_>
relationship shit
<elliottcable>
oh. Um. I don't remember what was going on months ago.
<micahjohnston_>
ok
<elliottcable>
but I'm with Chelsea, now; have been for quite a while
<elliottcable>
shit's always edxtremely difficult with her, but I also thoroughly love her.
<elliottcable>
her best friend hates my guts now, which sucks, because *we* were friends for quite a while.
<elliottcable>
Um,,,,,
<elliottcable>
ideekay. She's hot. I get laid a lot. She's smart. She talks to me about interesting things. But she's extremely difficult to deal with; I suspect she's Asperger's case or something. She's less socially capable than most of the nerds I know.
<elliottcable>
She completely misses subtle social clues from me; and she doesn't understand how things she does or says comes off to myself (and sometimes others).
<elliottcable>
I nearly dumped her once, because I got really tired of her hurting me all of the time. We had a big discussion about it at the time, and she's certainly gotten *better* about it, but ...
<elliottcable>
anyway.
<micahjohnston_>
hmmm ok
<elliottcable>
Last weekend, I took her to Vail, Colorado for Valentine's Day.
<micahjohnston_>
cool
<elliottcable>
She's a hardcore snowboarder chick. Not my kind of thing at all ... I used to ski when I was little, so I tried to pick it back up for this trip, but I fucking suck.
<micahjohnston_>
heh
<elliottcable>
It ended up being extremely miserable for me. She dragged me over to the back of the mountain or something, and I got stuck on a bunch of double-black-dimond tracks.
<micahjohnston_>
I was gonna go snowboarding with my girlfriend last saturday but then things came up
<elliottcable>
I fell off a cliff. My boots hurt a lot the whole time. It sucked, in general.
<micahjohnston_>
aw
<elliottcable>
on the bright side, I had completely forgotten I was an excellent skiier when I was little.
<elliottcable>
so it was amazing how much “just came back” after eleven fucking years, as soon as I clipped my boots in.
<alexteabaggordon>
this is coming together!
<elliottcable>
anyway.
<elliottcable>
Bought liquor tonight. Going to be partyin' hard tomorrow night.
<alexteabaggordon>
:( I've never been skiing
<elliottcable>
Mixing my drinks for the first time in months ... actually, first time since Canada.
<elliottcable>
alexteabaggordon ⑊ don't go with someone hardcore.
<elliottcable>
alexteabaggordon ⑊ they'll drag you off of cliffs.
<elliottcable>
alexteabaggordon ⑊ it will suck.
<elliottcable>
>,>
<alexteabaggordon>
lol
<purr>
lol
<elliottcable>
<,<
<micahjohnston_>
haha
<alexteabaggordon>
ok so
<elliottcable>
buuuuuuut, *other than* the snowsports we went there to do, it was an excellent weekend.
<alexteabaggordon>
here's what I'm doing
<elliottcable>
expensive as all ungodly fuck.
<elliottcable>
but worth it.
<alexteabaggordon>
I'm generating abstract RPN machines represented by binary numbers
<alexteabaggordon>
so a number in the machine is a 1, and an operator is a 0
<alexteabaggordon>
elliottcable: wow that looks cool
<prophile>
how do you say
<prophile>
trains
<audy>
elliottcable i used to live at a ski resort but my parents never took my skiing
<audy>
I suspect because they are fat
<alexteabaggordon>
lol
<audy>
There was this slide that went down the mountain that you'd ride down in this kart
<audy>
occasionally someone would get stuck in the half pipe and 'cause a clog
<audy>
cause
<alexteabaggordon>
anyway then I'm taking my abstract machines and applying registers to each number, and instructions to each operator, with the stipulation that each register is used only once
<elliottcable>
audy ⑊ where was this?
<alexteabaggordon>
then I'm going to write all of that to a file
<elliottcable>
alexteabaggordon ⑊ yep, it's the largest ski resort in the U.S. ... it was UNGODLY BIG
<audy>
elliottcable Jiminy Peak, mass
<elliottcable>
It took us three gondolas to get to the top of the first mountain; then we skiied down the *back* of that,
<alexteabaggordon>
then mmap it with PROT_EXEC and run the fucking thing!
<alexteabaggordon>
what could possibly go wrong
<elliottcable>
then up another two lifts to get to the top of the second mountain in the BACK.
<elliottcable>
and when I got sick of it and angry and hurting and sad, it took me a solid hour and a half to ski/lift/ski/lift my way all the way back to the resort.
<elliottcable>
th'fuck of value is in Massateuchetsts.
<elliottcable>
other than unspellable names.
<micahjohnston_>
we have good skiing/snowboarding here in utah
<micahjohnston_>
but i've never actually been :(
<elliottcable>
so I hear
<elliottcable>
Skiing is cool, if you rent gear
<alexteabaggordon>
this one time, right, we got like an inch of snow. It was really cool
<micahjohnston_>
haha
<elliottcable>
I bought brand-new gear, high-end stuff (100% Intense™)
<elliottcable>
but that meant I have a breaking-in period to get through, I guess
<micahjohnston_>
mm
<alexteabaggordon>
100% Rich Motherfucker™
<micahjohnston_>
if I get into the honors dorms at college
<micahjohnston_>
there is a ski wax room
<elliottcable>
which translates to “Your boots will repetitively rape your feet in their feet-y-assholes, over and over, for eleven full days of skiing.”
<elliottcable>
and alternatively to “You will hate life, god, your girlfriend, and your own body, for eleven days.”
