And the mosaic is another double helix.

KitFox

Yeah. Just imagine the same view with scuzzy stained dark brown floors, varnished trim with big dents in it, and my favorite, fake stucco painted over crumbling white plaster.

RegDwighт

It's turtles all the way down.

Mahnax

@KitFox I like the colour of the walls.

RegDwighт

tries to imagine... only sees there's no countries

KitFox

Thanks. It took me an unusually long time to decide on brown.

RegDwighт

23:01

Brown is the best thing since a different shade of brown.

Cerberus

@KitFox Ohh great!

KitFox

Cerberus

Awww.

KitFox

You can kind of see it there, but obviously not well.

Mahnax

A cat!

Cerberus

23:03

Awwww!

KitFox

There. That's the opposite angle of the above picture.

RegDwighт

I have to ask though. What's with all the outlets along the perimeter. Is this a backup solution for Iron Man's Hall of Armor?

Cerberus

The only thing I'd change in the first picture is a different light. It's too bright, too harsh. Just get a nice lamp.

The only thing I'd change in the second picture is more cats.

KitFox

@Cerberus They are three sets of dimmable cans.

@Cerberus That one died and the other ran away.

@RegDwighт Yes.

Cerberus

Okay, dimmable is better.

RegDwighт

23:05

I saw you hiding in the background. Children won't fool me into not paying attention.

Cerberus

What are cans?

KitFox

@Cerberus Recessed lights.

Cerberus

Oh.

KitFox

@RegDwighт No, stop!

RegDwighт

starts stopping

KitFox

23:06

It just looks like a lot of receptacles. We have two 2-gangs, and code requires one receptacle per six feet of wall space.

Which we don't actually have on the opposite side.

RegDwighт

Are those Cribs or Bloods?

KitFox

Crips.

RegDwighт

Right. An upside-down B. For extra coolness. I forgot.

KitFox

Right.

We originally had the computer and the TV in there, and what with all of our accessories, we needed lots of juice.

RegDwighт

Ah.

KitFox

23:08

We had three filled power strips. Not that we have a problem with electronics or anything.

Just a Cube and the PS2, and the wireless, and then a PS3.

RegDwighт

Yes yes I understand, Hall of Armor. The gantry alone. I understand. No explanation necessary.

KitFox

Yes.

Cerberus

(Both of my bitcoins have gained 20 % in value already. Both!)

KitFox

I'm glad you know what a gantry is.

RegDwighт

There are twenty on CUUSOO right now.

And no, I do not.

I only know the word.

And have been knowing it for exactly three days now.

KitFox

23:09

Oh. Well, you faked it well.

RegDwighт

I excel.

KitFox

I didn't even notice the lack of muscle spasms.

RegDwighт

BRB

Cerberus

I put gantry in my "words to memorise" list 10 years ago.

So of course I half-forgot.

I knew only that had something to do with a structure.

KitFox

I'm particularly happy about the rug.

I really like that rug and it's been in the laundry room under stuff.

Want to see something disturbing?

Now ima put the other one to bed. bbl

RegDwighт

23:20

That's not half as disturbing as Baby Mario. Try harder.

I await the results tomorrow. This day is getting called a day.

Au revoir tout le monde.

Mahnax

23:36

@KitFox I have, unfortunately, seen small children decked out in far stranger things than this.
