<Nitya> At least you haven't had your mom ask you to read her Harry Potter fanfic.
<Nitya> that was the moment at which I truly realized I was living in the future

<Fiora> So like, if you mix us, you get a tasty lemonade?
<Fiora> So like, does this mean me/Illflower is called "lemonade" now
<IllFlower> Fanfiction has taught me to regard anything related to lemons with some skepticism!
<Fiora> ... good point :<
<Fiora> Um... limeade!
<ponicalica> Isn't lime also a pornographic fanfic genre?
<Fiora> ... I... wouldn't know ._.
<Nova> i think it's softcore, if i remember correctly
<kingCrackers> Lemons, limes, oranges.
<Nova> I don't think oranges are a term.
<Nitya> they are delicious, however.
<kingCrackers> If it's a citrus, it's got fucking.
<divert_time> what about tangerines, in that case?
<divert_time> or clementines?
<Nitya> Also delicious.
<ponicalica> those are the kinky stuff
<divert_time> grapefruit
<Fiora> Stop associating tasty fruits with porn >_<
<divert_time> I don't want to know what kind of fanfic grapefruits stand for
<Nova> hey, we haven't even gotten into apples yet
<Fiora> ahhhhhhhh ._.
<kingCrackers> Clearly there is a fanfic genre called beef.

<Yayoi> Buttercupistiny: They are, but on the flip side making Fiora flustered enough to turn bright red is like filling up a shot glass with a fire hose.
<Nitya> Exactly!  It takes strength and finesse.
<Barcode> That's hard too, you'll just knock the glass off the table. Then it will empty (and break)
<ponicalica> With Buttercup it's slightly harder.  Like filling up a pint glass with a fire hose.
<Buttercupistiny> you would think he'd be on his best behavior considering I'm making him food when we go on our date, but here we are.
<Nitya> Presumably he's already resigned to your poisoning it.
<ponicalica> Buttercupistiny: I already know you plan on poisoning me, so I'm just en---DAMN YOU NITYA

<JBridge> I worked from 6:00 to 9:30 today.
<JBridge> Specifically, 6:00 AM to 9:30 PM.
<JBridge> But hey, I'm getting $95 out of the deal.
<RocketDude> Wow. Are you feeling okay?
<JBridge> I'm feeling a bit exhausted.
<RocketDude> A /bit?/
<Haruspex> I'm going to assume you were working as a gigolo.
<RocketDude> If he was, then I'd salute his stamina.
<JBridge> Well, I was serving a lot of people.

<BarcrimsonSkies> "We've lost government centre!" who cares
<BarcrimsonSkies> you don't understand, game. I don't give a shit if City Hall gets destroyed.
<BarcrimsonSkies> who eve n/needs/ the columbia towers? we can just build new ones
<Nitya> barcode, are you maybe not a good pilot

<PorrimMaryam> DO YOU PET THEM NITYA
<PorrimMaryam> do you
<PorrimMaryam> chickens are cute <3
<Puffin> don't go petting folks' chickens, Aon :|
<RocketDude> "Choking the chicken," am-ee-ree-tee
<Cosman246> what's this about?
<RocketDude> Nitya's chickens have gotten loose and Aon likes to pet their wattles.
<jseblan> is that a double-entendre
<PorrimMaryam> No it's not!
<RocketDude> Maybe. *Sniff* Maybe.
<PorrimMaryam> I'm not always a slut
<PorrimMaryam> Just
<PorrimMaryam> most of the time
<RocketDude> Plus, that would imply that Nitya has multiple penii, but given how he is about penii to blamspam...
<jseblan> that conversation is going the wrong way
<Nitya> PorrimMaryam: They run away from me.

<Nitya> I mean, you still don't want to turn bolts with your fingers if you have a wrench. But just keep in mind that your fingers do other things, like write, regenerate, maybe cause the occasional orgasm.
<Nitya> I guess you could do the last with a wrench?
<Nitya> Probably wouldn't recommend that.

<Rig> I go back to work tomorrow. Actually excited about that. Should be getting new projects and junk.
<Nitya> at the school thing?
<Nitya> school... uh... whatever you did.
<Rig> Emerging Media and Technology Department or whatever the fuck we call it to make it sound more impressive.
<Barcode[spriting]> software engineering engineering solutions engineering dynamic.
<Rig> + Design
<Rig> That last bit is in Helvetica Neue.

<bogo_lode> unless your books are all super obscure and you attempt to use them to make epeen points about how smrt you are
<Nitya> well some are kind of obscure but i'm not the peen type. let alone epeen, which would be a weird thing to show off in the real world
<Barcode> "I'm not the peen type" nitya's dating profile

<Saladofstones> "Ca2+ binding to troponin activates a thin filament distance spanning 9 to 11 actins" well I just learned how to make a new super virus nitya
<Nitya> oh sh-
* Barcode guards his troponins jealously
<Saladofstones> too bad barcode
<Saladofstones> since now I can double the amount of actins that I can span to it from
