No way - I tried. Spent a month dry and had the worst incident of my life. Ended up in a car crash with a drunk driver in through my side door. If I was drinking, I would not have been in that car. See, teetotalism is bad mmmkay

David Freitag

Hahaha

Mark Hulkalo

...in through your side door?

Like his body, or body parts?

David Freitag

@MarkHulkalo It was a poo attempt at a "you people" joke.

TildalWave

@RoryAlsop you OK? (didn't read up much, can't find what this is about)

Mark Hulkalo

@Tid

TildalWave

23:02

I just watched Everest. I thought it was shit LOL

Mark Hulkalo

@TildalWave Rory had a Roofie Coolada at the bar, and got taken home by another dude.

David Freitag

OH FFS THEY PUT CHRISTMAS MUSIC ON GMUSIC ALREADY

Mark Hulkalo

Colada*

TildalWave

@MarkHulkalo dude you're making me google too much

David Freitag

@MarkHulkalo Yeah and his ear got all messed up

TildalWave

23:03

had a what?

Mark Hulkalo

Roofie Colada

TildalWave

benzodiazepine?

David Freitag

@MarkHulkalo Is that a new flavor? It sounds delicious

Mark Hulkalo

Close. Flunitrazepam

TildalWave

why the fuck would he take that?

Mark Hulkalo

23:04

Oh, he didn't. @Ohnana slipped it into his drink.

David Freitag

@TildalWave He's kidding. @Rory had some sort of inner ear problem while he was driving at 50mph, he lost all coordination and balance essentially.

TildalWave

@DavidFreitag yeah I'm not sure which is worse LOL

David Freitag

@TildalWave I dunno that new Colada sounds mighty tasty...

TildalWave

wait what caused it?

besides old age :)

Mark Hulkalo

@TildalWave The roofie colada

David Freitag

23:06

in The Pitstop, yesterday, by Rory Alsop

@DavidFreitag Labyrinthitis - sudden strike of an illness with a silly name. At 50mph. Just managed to stop, get out of the car and throw up. Then couldn't get back in the car due to the extreme loss of coordination it gives you. So an hour an a half later an ambulance picks me up also suffering from mild hypothermia

That ^

TildalWave

@DavidFreitag hmmm yeah that doesn't say much really

David Freitag

@TildalWave Rories are known to be enigmatic. I just count it as a win since everyone is - for the most part - ok.

TildalWave

google for "illness with a silly name" returns like 549,593,988,394.23 results

David Freitag

LOL

No, I think the illness with the silly name is Labyrinthitis and it stuck suddenly

Mark Hulkalo

wibw.com/home/headlines/…

Texas man accused of assaulting girlfriend after she wouldn't smell his armpit

David Freitag

23:09

@MarkHulkalo Where the hell do you find this shit? LOL

TildalWave

@DavidFreitag even that doesn't really say much of its cause :P

so some sort of infection

or virus

or head injury

David Freitag

@TildalWave I dunno man, do I look like the inner ear of a rock god named rory?

TildalWave

or ...

Mark Hulkalo

@DavidFreitag The internet :p

TildalWave

@DavidFreitag well no but you might have just identified a potential source ... too loud music

it can happen, I've seen it

Mark Hulkalo

23:11

Could be a hole in his brain/sinus connection thingy.

TildalWave

and I was nearly there too

Mark Hulkalo

Sneezing too hard could cause a massive dizzy attack

TildalWave

@MarkHulkalo eustachean tube?

Mark Hulkalo

If you've got a CSF leak

Rory Alsop

Hello @TildalWave

Mark Hulkalo

23:11

Anywhere

David Freitag

@MarkHulkalo And it can also cause a leak in the rear of your trousers if you've just had Taco Bell

TildalWave

@RoryAlsop hey Roro :) how's it hanging? :))

Rory Alsop

No definite cause, no definite cure, just loads of anti-emetics and waiting till you can walk again

Mark Hulkalo

TildalWave

@RoryAlsop did they scan you for viruses with Norton?

David Freitag

23:13

I bet it was a transdimensional rift that opened inside your head when you wielded your mighty axe.

Rory Alsop

Best euphemism yet, @DavidFreitag

David Freitag

It's -2°C and it's pouring out. It's going to be a fun ride home.

Mark Hulkalo

TildalWave

@RoryAlsop you know that trick of sleeping with one foot on the ground, right?

Mark Hulkalo

$1.53 for gas at some places. Can't complain.

That's per GALLON

TildalWave

23:28

TX?

Gilles

my rule of thumb: price of gas in $/gal in the US = price of gas in €/L in France

TildalWave

it's a bit cheaper than that here, but not by much... I think it's 1.21 €/l (unleaded)

and $1.53 is 1.43 €

Gilles

@TildalWave and 1 gallon = 3.79 liter

TildalWave

yeah I know so 3.2x cheaper there than here

AviD

@Gilles == 1/4 price of gas in Israel

David Freitag

23:45

@AviD How much does a gallon of gas cost in Israel?

AviD

@DavidFreitag how much is a gallon

David Freitag

8 mins ago, by Gilles

@TildalWave and 1 gallon = 3.79 liter

@MarkHulkalo What version of VS do you use?

AviD

last time I checked, I think it was about 7.5 ILS per liter, which is just under 2$. so that makes it about 7-7.5 $ per gallon?

David Freitag

@AviD :O

AviD

@DavidFreitag Like I said, around 4x

no wait, I'm wrong - I thiunk the price is lower, around 6 ILS / liter.

so thats less than 6$ per gallon. whooo!

David Freitag

23:49

@AviD Hmm it costs me ~$45 to fill my 14 gallon tank once a month, so that's about $3.20/gallon, so not 4x

AviD

bascially, the price you pay per gallon, I get a liter.

$1.53 for gas at some places. Can't complain.

TildalWave

yeah that's probably TX

David Freitag

@AviD He's on drugs or something

Ohnana

@MarkHulkalo hey now

AviD

thats also the prices I remember last time I was there

TildalWave

23:50

not everywhere in US the price of gas is less than the price of water :P

David Freitag

@AviD Depends on where you went, I live on northeast coast

AviD

I remember people complaining that it was getting close to 2$.

@DavidFreitag NJ? lower tax, though

David Freitag

@AviD Yeah CT has massive tax

TildalWave

... Simon: You know what else is massive? My ween ...

David Freitag

@TildalWave Yeah, maybe if it were opposite day.

Rory Alsop

23:55

@TildalWave erm...wut?

@DavidFreitag costs me £55 to fill my tank once a week, only not for the next couple of weeks as no driving... yay, I guess...

David Freitag

@RoryAlsop $84 A WEEK?!?!?!

Rory Alsop

@DavidFreitag Yup - fuel here is 'spensive

Gilles

I pay 35€/month for my transport pass

Rory Alsop

oh, driving is still much cheaper than getting the train in to work

Train would cost me over £100 a week

Gilles

granted, that's after the 50% employer subvention, the price of the pass is 70€

still, driving sounds bloody expensive

TildalWave

23:59

@RoryAlsop if your head is spinning when you go to bed, you could try sleeping with one foot off the bed and on the floor like if you wanted to get up ... it helps
