30Dec2011

I came up with an idea for JIRA integration with Skyrim. If you get an issue, an NPC runs up and says “Person X needs a VPN. I would do it myself, but I took an arrow to the knee.” Then you get conversation options with template responses.

furgin logic

furgin:

rhastie, please fix ABC streaming.

rhastie:

I think we found the problem. Some people are using work resources for non-work related things which is slowing down the network.

furgin:

Fire them so I can listen to the cricket.

28Dec2011

I married this chick from the college who now lives with me in Whiterun. I slept with her for the first time. It says “You wake up feeling your lover’s embrace” and I look in the corner… and Lydia is sitting on the chair watching me sleep with my wife.

rhastie. Talking about Skyrim. I hope.

BONE STORM!

13Dec2011

Big Plans…

clepetit:

For our next PR stunt we should construct a giant Minecraft-styled Charlie on top of the building.

Carlfish:

We should construct a 20-storey Mecha Charlie and let it loose on the city.

slappybag:

Then Gamera will come and save the day!

clepetit:

Then tell people to log all the destruction in JAC

clepetit:

“As a CBD resident, I would like my balcony returned to it's normal location - attached to the rest of my apartment”

Carlfish:

“As a resident of the North Shore, I would like the smoke from the burning ruins of the CBD to blow some other direction.”

Mary Sue

denni:

denni, I used “play precompile”.

denni:

Oops. Furgin, I used “play precompile”.

Jirra:

Jirra, nice shirt!

furgin:

furgin, you’re awesome.

06Dec2011

If you need string, gunpowder, bones, arrows or rotten flesh, head on down to the base of the skymasher and collect what you like.

Jirra, just another day in Minecraft.

Crossed Wires

Lolzcat:

I’ll never drink hot coffee again

Jedi:

I’m going to hold you to that Lolzcat

JirraOnDemand:

Jedi just wants to hold Lolzcat

Jedi:

how can you expect me to achieve my goals when you keep exposing them, JirraOnDemand?

* Lolzcat

hides.

Carlfish:

Stop exposing Jedi!

* Lolzcat

doesn’t want to be held by an exposed Jedi.

Jedi:

Woah woah, i think we’re getting our wires crossed.

Carlfish:

Exposed wiring?

Jedi:

Let me clear it up: I want to be naked and have sex with you, Lolzcat.

14Nov2011

What I want is for Apple to make shoes. Because then I’d just have to choose if I want them in black or white, and ultra portable or ultra powerful, and my decision is done

clepetit, fanboy extreme
14Nov2011

I was wandering around and someone asked me, “Are you going to cover your unmentionables?” Sure enough, I was naked.

Denni
10Nov2011

Fuck off

clepetit:

I’m disappointed Swoon, you should tell people to fuck off, not apologise

Swoon:

I’m not that kind of guy

Wobin:

Swoon: you should hire hinch to say fuck off for you

Swoon:

that doesn’t seem ethical

hinch:

I’ll do it, I don’t mind

07Nov2011

Solid Silver Bullet

Jirra:

It just took two hours to delete one level (of eight) of the images of one of the six Minecraft maps I have. This could take a while.

Carlfish:

Maybe you should ask rhastie for an SSD. I hear they solve everything.

Swoon:

P = NP = SSD

jedi:

WIth zombocom, everything is tractable.

04Nov2011

I just tried to offer Michael Seager and Swoon gifts of chocolate but Seager rejected it and Swoon thought I was trying to kill him. This is why I am a jerk; being nice is too hard.

clepetit
31Oct2011

What about a hybrid between a Paladin and a Warlock? A Padlock.

Jedi, ba-dum-tish.
21Oct2011

Too literal, too soon.

dennilan:

MTGers, I made a new deck last night! It will rock your balls!

Carlfish:

I do not want a Magic deck rocking my balls.

hinch:

Even if it's gentle, Carlfish?

Carlfish:

♫ Rock-a-bye scrotum in the jockstrap / When the wind blows, my mana will tap. ♫

20Oct2011

You need to wire me up in leather.

Jedi
06Oct2011

It worked! After 7 minutes of rubbing, the rhastie genie appears!

One of the section headers on the dev docs homepage reads “I’m writing a plugin and I’m stuck.” I thought it read “I’m writing a plugin and I suck.”

#confluence, again.

nali:

Wait, there is such a thing as a Confluence lab coat?

DonW:

They're from the first lab week.

ryan:

Do we even have lab week any more?

DonW:

No, we have spike week.

DonW:

You're all getting impaled on stakes.

05Sept2011

Just one wafer thin mint…

dennilan:

Swoon: grats on the Java developer job!

Swoon:

Thanks! The best part is I get to sick next to chrisdarroch!

Swoon:

I can annoy him even more effectively

Swoon:

Oh… whoops. I wonder why Carlfish just laughed out loud

Carlfish:

I just had this mental image of you turning left and hurling.

Swoon:

“Hey daz, do you mind if I just…. <Blaeeeeegh>”

Furries make the Internet go

* dennilan

has been hit on by a girl in a fursuit before.

dennilan:

It was strange.

* dennilan

left that party quickly

dennilan:

*without* the girl

dennilan:

I went home with the fursuit and left the girl there.

29Aug2011

Shouting “FIRE!” in a crowded office.

dennilan:

Does anyone know where the Level 16 fire extinguishers are?

Carlfish:

If something’s on fire, maybe you shouldn't be asking on IRC.

dennilan:

I should send an email?

Carlfish:

Maybe. Or update your status on extranet.

Jirra:

You need to ring 0118 899 88199 9119 725.....3

Carlfish:

A build is only useful if there is somebody who cares when it breaks.

Eugmak:

Haha. I thought that was Starcraft-related.

Carlfish:

Build a Cybernetics Core. It will allow you to upgrade your one-track mind.

Eugmak:

Not enough minerals :(

I was thinking maybe arrow dispensers for manual squid clearage.

Rise of the Machines

Jirra:

"FireFox prevented this site from asking you to install software on your computer" - gee thanks FireFox, it didn't even get a chance to ask?

jedi:

"Firefox prevented you from having fun."

jedi:

"Firefox told that boy you like that you're not interested."

Carlfish:

"Firefox won't open that web page until you have eaten all your vegetables."

Jirra:

"FireFox prevented this site from inviting you to a party"

denni:

"Firefox branded you a horrible person"

Swoon:

"Firefox thinks you look fat in that dress"

User Stories

dennilan:

As a plugin, I want to be able to block mail from going to a user based on whether or not my permission scheme (which the host app knows nothing about) reckons they can use the host app.

Jirra:

As a Paladin tank attempting to off-tank Shannox, I would like a mail filter to not send mail to certain users as defined by a predicate supplied by a plugin.

Carlfish:

As a Paladin healer attempting to keep the main tank alive on Shannox, I would like the Confluence mail subsyMY FACE! GET THIS DOG OFF MY FACE!

Paladin + dress = priest

But only when they're green

Furgin:

There is a building outside, and I SWEAR TO GOD that it’s changing colours every time I look at it.

Furgin:

It’s now yellow but I’m sure it was red a minute ago

Hinch:

Is it a traffic light?

lolzcat: how can I convince you to take off your pants for raids?

Jedi
28Jul2011

A matter of degree.

Furgin:

Josh hates maven more than Carl does.

Carlfish:

That's because maven is made from small bits of satan glued together with the spit of demons.

Furgin:

OK, maybe he doesn't hate it more than you.

26Jul2011

QA-ing the Human Race.

Carlfish:

I was about to say it's weird I can find the LD50 [Lethal dose for 50% of the population] for salt in rats, but only find the "lowest known lethal dose" for humans. Then I realised what experiments one would have to perform to get the LD50 in humans.

Penny:

I'm sure I could automate it.

Tell your boss there’s a scary box for him at reception. It looks like the one from the movie Seven.

Donna:

WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!!?!

Charles:

You'll be so embarrassed if it really does turn out to be someone’s head.

Moonburn:

Just bear in mind that maintenance usually happens at lunch. :(

* Jirra

reminds everyone there's ice-cream today.

Swoon:

When does the ice-cream thing start?

Jirra:

3pm

* lolzcat

wanted Moonburn's email to read '[Maintenance] MANY SERVICES! HANDLE THEM!'

Jirra:

I want to replace the term 'outage' with 'outrage'

Moonburn:

ice-cream?

Carlfish:

I want to replace the term 'outage' with 'ice-cream'

Carlfish:

"Your server suffered an unscheduled ice-cream" sounds so much nicer.

lolzcat:

I like unscheduled ice-creams

Jirra:

"There will be a scheduled ice-cream from 6pm to 12am on Tuesday.

Moonburn:

Going backwards in time?

Carlfish:

It's the ice-cream Flux Capacitor.

Moonburn:

Where we're going, we don't need ice-cream.

Lost in Translation

denni:

I hear Furgin has experience with that.

Carlfish:

I hear that's where ChrisLePetit spends all his days.

ChrisLePetit:

Not all my days. Just the time that's between the start and end of the sprint, and this doesn't include and time logged against child sprints that were released before the start of this sprint, unless it's still got open subtasks marked against this current sprint or it's children.

So how come rhastie is in here? Do you play WoW rhastie?
