@DennisKaarsemaker I somehow managed to have never seen or heard that before

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@Magellan could have been more of a european thing

it was the age before internet, not as much eu/us cross-pollination.

Matthew Ife

Really scraping the barrel there with whigfield.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker Ah. And I was in university when her big hit came out.

Matthew Ife

In the UK, he floats around middle-barrel.

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker That makes me want to go listen to my local public radio's reggae show.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@voretaq7 a-ha is not creepy!

Magellan

@voretaq7 Hey now. Don't you be dissing A-Ha. Lady come over there and kick your ass.

voretaq7

@DennisKaarsemaker no, but that video is.

@Magellan You're no lady!

Magellan

@voretaq7 I'm not, She is. She'd still kick your ass for dissing A-Ha.

Seriously though, that video was seriously avant-garde for the era.

Seriously. Avant-Garde.

voretaq7

@Magellan Creepy.

Magellan

If you cant sound good. Look good.

voretaq7

@DennisKaarsemaker We maid merciless fun of my friend in high school who had the video to "Best Friend" on his desktop. Mostly because his sound card was broken when we played the video so the rest of us just made up stories to go with what was on screen.

(I'm not sure if our version is better or worse than the actual story behind the lyrics)

Magellan

@voretaq7 And besides, who doesn't want to own a red Stratocaster?

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@MatthewIfe no nsfw stuff please..

BigHomie

Who could forget this one

►

@MatthewIfe thanks, it's only 5 mins to 5 here lol

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@BigHomie how bad is it that I recognize a rickroll form that screenshot?

BigHomie

May 23, 2014 20:56

@DennisKaarsemaker very bad!

Dennis Kaarsemaker

BigHomie

@DennisKaarsemaker Don't know for sure What it is either, except for highly racist?

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@Magellan I don't know, I think it's bloody hilarious :)

BigHomie

@voretaq7 Yes, I feel like Hip Hop has been violated

voretaq7

@BigHomie Meh. Mine's better. Because Dranei Dance.

BigHomie

@voretaq7 Nah, you didn't watch the vid

Dranei got nothin on that one, that's from way back

voretaq7

May 23, 2014 20:59

@BigHomie Seen it before. This is why that droid got dismantled.

Magellan

@BigHomie That's not bad. Better than most of what I hear on the World Pop show on Tuesday nights.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

BigHomie

@voretaq7 Nah, it's a remix

Dennis Kaarsemaker

what were we all smoking in the 90's?

freiheit

Magellan

May 23, 2014 21:01

@DennisKaarsemaker Dunno mate. The only place it was legal was where you live. =)

voretaq7

@DennisKaarsemaker I wasn't smoking anything - but I was on a lot of OTHER drugs :)

Iain

Does anyone here use facebook to organise group events ?

voretaq7

@voretaq7 the tweak to our css went well

Magellan

May 23, 2014 21:02

@MatthewIfe Just got back to that C'est la Vie video you posted. THAT needs to die in a fire.

voretaq7

@Iain ...3....2....1....<serverfault.com? NXDOMAIN!>

Matthew Ife

Big guns..

And it'll be stuck in your head. FOR WEEKS.

Muahahahahah!

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@voretaq7 neh, they'll keep the AAAA record :)

Magellan

@MatthewIfe Meh. I've had Swing Low Sweet Chariot stuck in my head for days. It might be a welcome diversion at this point.

Iain

@Magellan I hate you !

Matthew Ife

May 23, 2014 21:04

Well, as they say: Cest La Vie.

@kaiser Howdy. If you're looking for live support, this is the wrong place.

Kevin Soviero

@MatthewIfe Hey, that's mine!

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker I have a 9 year old daughter. You think THAT is gonna scare me?

kaiser

@Magellan wat?

Matthew Ife

May 23, 2014 21:05

You can have it back. I'm done with it.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@Magellan depends on the support you need.

voretaq7

@DennisKaarsemaker they'll keep everything except the NS delegation at the root :)

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker bad earworms and a reason to drink? We're good for that.

Journeyman Geek

@Magellan: does that include cake and grief counseling? cause with these videos, I think I need that.

kaiser

@Magellan is this a reply to something that I never asked or sayed?

Dennis Kaarsemaker

May 23, 2014 21:05

@Magellan I think the worms in here are nastier...

voretaq7

"We made a CSS change and ALL OF .COM WENT AWAY!"

Dennis Kaarsemaker

And I'm not talking casu marzu either...

Magellan

@kaiser Is a reply to what 3/4 of all people who wander in here are looking for.

@DennisKaarsemaker especially the ringworms.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@Magellan @kaiser's been here before, no?

Journeyman Geek

oh god

►

I remember this

Magellan

May 23, 2014 21:07

@DennisKaarsemaker Dunno. Figured I'd cover the bases just in case. It's not like I was mean about it.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@JourneymanGeek but do you remember this:

►

kaiser

@Magellan and where did I ask for any help from anyone (especially you)? I'm in here since weeks, mostly saying nothing or just helping one or the other with WordPress questions... mate... you are kinda off, aren't you?

@DennisKaarsemaker jup

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker @MatthewIfe Already covered that one.

Journeyman Geek

@DennisKaarsemaker: I obviously found it too traumatic and forgot it.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

dang, missed it

Magellan

May 23, 2014 21:08

@kaiser of course I'm off. But I doubt that phrase means the same thing here as it does there. It does make it funnier though.

Journeyman Geek

►

oh and this. I think we had it on cassette. For some odd reason

Matthew Ife

►

Dennis Kaarsemaker

ooh, TMF logo. Must be good

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker Just to spite you, I listened to the entire Hansen video.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

ah, blue dabadeedabadeedabadee

@Magellan me too! Now listening to bewitched :)

Kevin Soviero

May 23, 2014 21:09

Is it just me or is @Magellan just nasty to everyone?

kaiser

@Magellan yes, I'm no native speaker. Anyway, why are you assuming anything about me out of the blue?

Magellan

Oh, you BETTER not be dissing C+C.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@KevinSoviero just people whos name start with a K it looks like

Magellan

@kaiser Dunno, mate. You self-reported that you're in Vienna.

Matthew Ife

And this, this actually happened.

Journeyman Geek

May 23, 2014 21:10

@DennisKaarsemaker I'd normally find the accent adorable but... thats scary.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

kaiser

@Magellan in my profile... yes. what's your problem with that? are you stalking me somehow?

Magellan

I forgot just how many crotch-shots there were in C+C music videos.

kaiser

or got a problem with Vienna?

Magellan

@kaiser dude, chill. I Check the profile of everybody who wanders in here.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

May 23, 2014 21:10

Vienna is awesome

I went there for my honeymoon

really should go back

kaiser

@DennisKaarsemaker hope you enjoyed it.

@Magellan well, as I said before: I'm sitting in a corner in here since weeks.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@kaiser quite. One of the nicest cities I've been in

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker I want to visit Vienna and Budapest some day. Microsoft held a conference in Buda a few years and my friend's were teasing me about how cool it is.

Kevin Soviero

@Magellan There's a Buda, TX down I-35... But I doubt that hick town of 3,000 people is the one you meant. ;)

Magellan

@MatthewIfe See, now I want to go ride my motorcycles. And instead I have to start my shift in 45 minutes.

Kevin Soviero

May 23, 2014 21:14

Er, 7,295 people actually. Sorry Buda, TX hicks.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

►

@KevinSoviero hey, not all texans are hicks

Kevin Soviero

@DennisKaarsemaker I'm in Austin, TX, just making fun of our neighbors!

Magellan

@DennisKaarsemaker Oy. I'd successfully wiped all recollection of BSB. Now I'm gonna have to drink that away too.

@Magellan Die Antwoord is.... strange...

Journeyman Geek

@Magellan I don't drink, and I'm seriously considering it.

@freiheit: they are. Also too recent ;p

oh god.

Magellan

@freiheit That makes Bjork sound flat fucking NORMAL.

Dennis Kaarsemaker

@JourneymanGeek damn, I haven't heard that in ages!

excellent contribution, sir :)

Magellan

@JourneymanGeek At least it had a link to Garbage's Stupid Girl, which is awesome.

Journeyman Geek

May 23, 2014 21:21

@Magellan: I thought the whole point is to inflict the worst we can on each other? ;p

Magellan

@JourneymanGeek Yes. It's not awful per se, it's just Bad.

Journeyman Geek

and of course. I had to find the POWER RANGERS version of it

Magellan

@JourneymanGeek ok, you did win points with the power rangers intro

Dennis Kaarsemaker

GO GO POWER RANGERS

freiheit

@Magellan That's one of their less strange videos, too...
