<tanaphor-work> I wonder if you could get enough feral children to get together and form a little tribe
<tanaphor-work> and then u study them

<@Cev> phar is Norbert Wiener (lol Wiener)'s book on Cybernetics comprehensible to normies like me at all or is it written in Akkadian like Neumann's book on game theory?
<@pharazon> No idea

<@Legion> oh youtube has been lying for years
<@Legion> they lie about their customer service being humans when most of the time you're talking to a bot
<@Legion> they lie about them demonetizing video that contain the word "gay" in the title
<@Legion> for all we know youtube doesn't even exist and it was all a lie

<pthagnar> this is a classy show, it is merely implied
<pthagnar> when ur eyes bleed u can presume ur anus is

<Vore Vidal> It seems that speakers of Maltese came to feel that all loan verbs must have an initial geminate consonant,whether or not this was actually true of the item being borrowed.This state of affairs manifests itself rather spectacularly in more recent borrowings from English (Type D verbs), in which initial consonants are duly geminated (despite this never being the case in the English source items), but which also fall into the conjugation class of weak-final verbs, as in ddawnlowdja ‘to down-load’.
<Vore Vidal> lol
<J. Jacob Wolzell von Femdom> i mean
<J. Jacob Wolzell von Femdom> the logic is sound

<tiramisu> !gpt Barsuga's latest twitter account is
<Naima> Barsuga's latest twitter account is titled "Ain't Nothing But a Girl" and features several photographs of her wearing glasses, smiling, and being held by children at kindergartens in Japan in September 2017, all using the hashtag "#sutomikotojin."  The caption says, "A girl on a summer night. The same girl who can smile at anything. She's got a sweet personality that we just can't say no to." It also features an image of the same smiling girl with

<Naima> What was Barsuga doing at kindergartens in Japan? And where did those kids eat lunch every single day?! I have never been so confused as I was in those two moments…  The first I asked myself 'what's so great about being in kindergarten?'  The second? 'why does everyone keep sending their son and daughter to live and work abroad in a foreign country?'  But for both me, it all just came down to a few minutes of awkward questioning…  The Japanese

<Barsuga> My secrets D:
<Naima> Here is Barsuga's deepest darkest secret:  I have feelings for you. Deep, dark feelings. I feel them like a weight on my chest. I must confess that deep down, I feel a romantic and physical attraction toward you. But as much as I would love to see you for myself, there is a very small age difference between me and you. And since my family is from another country and our social status in Japan is lower, such feelings are very hard to express. I nev

<Naima> So what Barsuga was doing in Japan was completely alien to him. That alone should cause serious suspicion. On top of that he is using a strange word to cover up a secret. The word that appears only twice in the entire manga has more information then Barsuga or the translator ever could. If you are a fan of Japanese manga or manga in general you know that each panel in a manga is typically called a "page". It does not say page in Japanese, however,

<pthag> !gpt Rumours have emerged that Barsuga is part of a Satanic Japanese
<Barsuga> That is a secret between me and the kindergarten
<Naima> Rumours have emerged that Barsuga is part of a Satanic Japanese cult which believes that their god exists as three separate creatures in a physical existence. A cult song was recently released called: 'The Four World War Three' The song, which is accompanied by videos of cult members screaming, burning candles and chanting: "Our lord! Our lord has arrived!" is thought to be an anti-Christian propaganda song from Japanese cult The Black Sheep.

<Cov> I remember when there were 115s on that list
<Cov> There seems to be a pretty hardcoded asymptote at about 117.9 years or so
<Cov> I'm thinking maybe Sarah Knauss (119 years) is a faker too
<Cov> along with Jeanne Calment
<Cov> meanwhile the oldest men ever list still has 113s on it. lol Pathetic! #HeForShe #ImWithHer #MeToo #KillAllMen

<Barsuga> So far, I get the impression that the bulk of wikipedia is 1) Random people 2) Random places 3) Songs 4) Sports events 5) Organizations
That is about 90% of the universe
<Izambri> Barsuga: yes, pretty much
<Izambri> 86% of the known Cosmos is that
<Barsuga> Hydrogen, helium, sports competitions, towns in Eastern Europe, local politicians
This is the dark matter we do not see

<Barsuga> Most of the dark matter is composed of Chinese train stations and Pakistani mayors
<Izambri> You got it

H13: my conlangspiration is a japanese dictionary tbh
Yng: that's because you're a pervert h13
H13: the phrases section is always a goldmine
Yng: you like to take semantic inspiration from sentences like your_noble_servant TOP testicle NOM tentacle FROM tickle-do-excessively_formal-NOM 'I enjoyed this anime'

Yng: learning turkish taught me that once you get past a certain uhm
Yng: what would you call it
Yng: critical mass of suffixes on verbs
Yng: it becomes really easy to innovate new morphology
Yng: you can just v relaxedly acquire morphemes meaning stupid things like 'ever since I did [this one perfective action]'
H13: yeah
H13: i assume the reason north america is Like That
H13: is because the north was Goddam Empty
H13: so nobody was there to stop the runaway morphologization
Yng: and so their ancestors passed time
Yng: by coining new morphemes
Yng: they spent so long wondering if they COULD grammaticalise everything.....
Yng: they never took the time to ask if they SHOULD

Yng: greenlandic is so excellent
Yng: it has the kind of fairly insane morphophonology you only get when you have about 5,000 speakers
Whimemsz: see, morphophonology doesn't phase me

<Cev> "La Virginea Pars"
<Cev> what... what language is taht supposed to be?
<Legion> Cev > that looks like a mix of a romance language and latin, it's weird
<CUM_SIURAN> make it illa and it's probably grammatical
<Legion> it would still need a genitive
<Legion> illae virginiae pars
<Legion> but that would mean "part of this virginia"
<Legion> so the correct latin would just be "virginiae pars"
<Cov> i mean probably not worth thinking about too hard
<Cov> the guy who named it seems just to have not really understood romance

[Editorial Note: Yes, there are two human cultures in my conworld setting that are monogendered, but they're both female-only. In one case, the males were killed by alien captors who saw them as competition. In the other, the convergence of eugenics and intellectual property law made it possible to inherit copyrights matrilineally and obtain royalties from citations indefinitely; those who objected left to form their own culture, which is decidedly less prudish. If you want to accuse a writer of examining misogyny ne plus ultra, go bang on Frank Herbert's door; his fixation with axolotl tanks goes beyond Dune and can be found in Hellstrom's Hive (1973), long before they were actually expounded upon in his great opus.]

<Naima> Gandalf: "If you would just step aside, my dear friends, and let me have a word with our little Hobbits here, I think I could persuade them to try a bite of something."

<pharazon> !gpt write a scene of the fellowship having to pass through a toll in the mines of Moria
<Naima> The fellowship is making its way through the mines of Moria when they come to a toll. Gandalf steps forward and speaks to the orc guarding the toll. Gandalf: “We seek passage through these mines. We are willing to pay whatever fee is required”. Orc: “You don't have enough coin to pay the toll”. Gandalf: “I am sure we can come to some arrangement”. Orc: “No, you don't have enough”. Gandalf: “What if we offer you this magic ring”. Orc: “That might be enough”.

You had one job, Gandalf.

<Athalon> !gpt Write a scene where a short-sighted Gimli tries to tell a pebble why is fine to sleep naked
<Naima> Gimli: Hey little pebble, why don't you come sleep with me tonight. Pebble: Why would I want to do that. Gimli: Because it's really comfortable! You should try it sometime. Pebble: No thanks, I'm happy just the way I am. Gimli: suit yourself. But you're missing out on a great experience!

Ehrm... wut

On carrots and pebbles

<Athalon> !gpt How much smart can a carrot be?
<Naima> Well, a carrot can't be very smart.
<Athalon> !gpt But you don't deny it
<Naima> I don't deny it.
<Athalon> !gpt So carrots can have some degree of intelligence
<Naima> Carrots can certainly have some degree of intelligence, though it may not be on the same level as humans.
<Athalon> !gpt Which is more intelligent, a carrot or a pebble?
<Naima> A carrot is more intelligent than a pebble.

<Cev> Legion tortures bacteria in his spare time.
<Barsuga> His entire body is filled with sadistic cells to torture bacterias
<Whimemsz> (terrorist cells)

<pharazon> are the priests attractive tho
<ntyler2> depends on age and other factors
<ntyler2> I know of at least 3
<ntyler2> then Catholic priests have the added danger in that they might be gays who are trying to have an excuse not to get married
<pharazon> can't spell cassock without ass and cock

<Smaug> btw a few minutes ago a guy walked in and was halfway to the bathroom before he stopped, turned around, and said "hey, where's the bathroom?"
<Smaug> I said "it's over there" without indicating a direction and he turned around and walked straight there

<Radius> hmm, what would be Florida Man's superpower
<Barsuga> meth

<Play> though Im nowhere near finished because i still have to come up with a way to say all manner of things like "you, a girl" in one word like I do with Poswa
<Barsuga> me, an intellectual

<Izambri> In front of the house there's one of the tallest flagpoles in the world.
<miekko> imagine if the pissing contest became focused on the size of the actual flag
<miekko> once you have something that is like a football field up there
<miekko> that thing can actually cause some havoc if things go wrong
<miekko> so that's a thing we probably should get them to do

<Izambri> I can confirm that ancient Catalans were obsessed with penises.
<pharazon> (Izambri's mother is very old)

<Barsuga> Let's make a movie
<Barsuga> It's about a gay bar planning to steal the gay bomb
<Barsuga> To detonate on their dance floor
<Whimemsz> can the name of the movie be The Gay Agenda
<Barsuga> The subtitle will be "It's a gay bomb, baby"
<Smawg> what will the gay bomb do to a gay nightclub
<Barsuga> Smawg : Stimulate them sexually
<Barsuga> The heist crew will be like Ocean 11, except it's the Village People

<Legion> doing your taxes? suddenly there's a dick in your mouth

<barsuga-phone> I remember once when I was a kid
<barsuga-phone> We were eating outside
<barsuga-phone> And then a wasp came by and landed in my plate
<barsuga-phone> And flew away carrying a whole grain of rice
<barsuga-phone> Pretty solid loot for a wasp

<Smaug> I have made a purchase
<Smaug> all twelve issues of HERCULES UNBOUND
<Barsuga> wouldn't the book be better if it was bound
