<Rig> How do I convince someone to stop doing terrible things?
<Juan> I normally recommend murder
<Rig> Well, they're my boss.
<Rig> And I don't think promotion works that way here.
<IllFlower> Find a way to connect the consequences of said terrible thing to the literal end of the world.
<Rig> Reinventing HTTP error codes?
<IllFlower> "If it takes too much effort to use our API, nobody will use it and we'll all die starving and alone in the streets."
<Rig> "Yeah, well, that's why you're all required to use it for our in-house projects."
<IllFlower> "We'll lose tons of productivity, your manager will find out, and you'll die starving and alone in the streets."
<Rig> He is the manager. ;-; There is only one person above him.
<IllFlower> I'd keep hammering in the part where he inevitably dies starving and alone in the streets.

<Rig> Just a development company to make this app for a guy.
<Rig> He wants something huge and said price is no option.
<Rig> It's dumb, but I like money.
<Rig> And have no ethics.
<Juan> hey rig how do you feel about making a white supremacy movie
<Rig> Okay, I do have ethics.

<Rig> «Purrloin used Quick Claw to move first. Purrloin is asleep.» Well, shit.
<jseblan> more like Purrloin is fast asleep
<Rig> ¬.¬
<Rig> That is the worst fucking pun.

<Yukihime> "Nitya looked down at his shoes, his voice occasionally cracking through tears. 'you don't understand, ivoryRum. I'm not like the rest of you. I'm an exception.'
<Yukihime> "ivoryRum took Nitya's hand in his, running his fingers over the folds of his palm. 'I know,' he said. 'that's why I knew I had to catch you.' "
<ivoryRum> Oh god.
<Nitya> are you high

<JBridge>  I'm gonna have to slap a bitch.
* ColorPrinter summons bitch to slap
* ivoryRum bestows the title of Bitch Summoner on ColorPrinter.

<IllFlower> Iverum, I note that you haven't refuted my assertions, which means that they're true. Or that you're ignoring me...
<Iverum> I don't hold conversations with glorified chat bots.
-!- Iverum was kicked by IllFlower (What if they kick you?)
-!- IllFlower was kicked by ChanServ ((Iverum (ivoryRum)) No reason given)
-!- Iverum joined #yackfest
<FAMAS> WHAT THE FUCK WAS THIS?
-!- IllFlower joined #yackfest
<FAMAS> how did you give, take your own auth
<FAMAS> and then um
<FAMAS> kicked by one who is not on channel
<FAMAS> errr
<Iverum> ChanServ is nice.
<IllFlower> It's the IRC equivalent of a slapfight, really.
<Iverum> It's funny. I started typing the command to kick as soon as you went op, but you kicked me before I could finish typing the channel name.
<IllFlower> I should remember to arbitrarily change my nickname so that doesn't work!
<n> That hardly seems arbitrary.

<IllFlower> Proposition: Instant channel bans for anybody shown to be an active TV Tropes user
<Iverum> Proposition: IllFlower needs sleep badly.
<IllFlower> Point of order: What are you doing in my bed?
<Iverum> Who's the chair?
<IllFlower> Nobody's the chair! Get out of my bed!
* Iverum goes back to the corner.
<Iverum> Anyway, I'm all for bans.
<Iverum> For almost any reason.
<IllFlower> Proposition: Instant channel bans for anybody shown to be Iverum
* Iverum seconds the motion.
<IllFlower> Stay in your corner!

<Iverum> I dislike the UI for Steel Battalion, Barcode.
<Barcode> No, I mean, like, wht about it?
<Iverum> Oh, I mean the whole "peer out of this tiny window" bit.
<Barcode> man, that's the /best part/ of tankshit! the horrid visibility
* Nitya imagines Iverum standing in a submarine, critiquing the viewport UI

<Rig> I'm aware of all relationships in this channel. It's the op power that IllFlower granted me.
<Rig> His cruel wisdom enlightens me.
<stiva> so you know about Nitya and me?
<Rig> The question is "Does Zia?"
* Zia looks at stiva
* Nitya looks at stiva 
* Zia looks *really hard* at stiva
* stiva whistles casually while backing out of the room.

<Solstace> Argh.
<Solstace> Wanting to do something again.
<Solstace> Don't know what I want to do.
<Iverum> Jackerel is free, as always.
<Solstace> I'm insulted that you'd suggest that.
<Iverum> I was going to suggest Nitya.
<Solstace> That's only slightly better.
