@Vit: Oh my God, are you still alive?
Seems like you had a rough time.
 
Huh?
 
@Vit: I just read your previous conversation...
 
@Cerberus What about it?
 
Having had some experience on the subject I... assessed the situation, which may have been quite different...
I'm also very drunk. My apologies in advance.
 
Oh.
 
1:17 AM
@Vit: But there is a certain member of an unusual nature who seems to be behaving unexpectedly?
I base this partly on the starred lines.
 
Well, that was padded out over a couple days.
 
I see.
Glad that has all been rationally accounted for!
 
Should I watch Agora (the 2009 film)?
 
Eh, never heard of it?
Good title.
 
Thanks anyway.
It's about those religious guys murdering Hypatia of Alexandria.
But I haven't assessed its historical veracity.
 
1:22 AM
The plot sounds disheartening.
We mustn't have them damned irrationalists win!
 
Yes, that's why you should read LessWrong more often. Like, right now!
 
Hah!
 
With haste, doggy!
Time's running out!
 
Will I be able to understand in my drunken state?
 
Oh no.

1:23 AM
By the way, you sound just like @Robusto now!
I am glad it is catching on.
@Vit: Any article in particular that you'd like a drunkard's opinion on?
 
@Cerberus Yes, this one.
 
Hmm let's see...
@Vit: I am now half way through, past the first example, with the 3D chart. What am I supposed to be looking for? I can follow it so far, though it doesn't come easy...
 
@Cerberus I dunno man. Something.
 
@Vit: Last time I considered 4-dimensional systems, I though it best to just forget about visualising them, except perhaps as a moving 3-D object...
It is just freaking hawd!
 
@Cerberus I mean something to help save the world from deranged religious fanatics.
Don't worry, it's on-topic:
2 days ago, by RegDwight
room topic changed to English Language and Usage: General discussion about God
 
1:36 AM
Oh!
That is an interesting development.
Isn't the world saved already?
Religion is slowly dying out in America, and dying out fast in Europe...
In China and Japan it has never been that pervasive; and the Middle East, well, that's just the Middle East.
 
@Cerberus According to people on this list, no.
 
Aww...
The world is saving itself!
I am sort of a modernist in this regard.
(God I hope JSBangs isn't watching this.)
But those saviours are cute anyway!
 
@Cerberus What! Are you saying the mighty Eliezer Yudkowsky won't be the guy who saves this world? Heresy!
 
@Vit: My apologies! I know you don't appreciate my bashing your idol...
 
Haha.

A: Why did 'y' disappear as an internal vowel in English spelling?

Alain PannetierThe spelling change from 'y' in Middle English to 'i' in Modern English in such words as wife or time is actually a consequence of the phenomenon known as the Great Vowel Shift. In wikipedia's chart you can follow the path for the sound now in time in the leftmost column. And the corresponding I...

 
1:46 AM
I actually have no idea whether I am still speaking proper English... too drunk.
@Vitaly Oh, my, those answers are too long for me now. Will read them in the morning!
 
Speaking of the morning, it's 6 AM for me and I should go.
CU.
 
@Vit: Night!
 
 
9 hours later…
10:34 AM
@RegDwight: Did you see you've been totally pwned on Skeptics?
 
Um, no?
Oh God, how am I supposed to ever catch you again... <cries>
 
Well, you shouldn't have mocked me the other day.
Did you see the exchange I had with the mod?
 
Yes, I now realize my mistake. But it's too late!!!!
No, lemme see...
 
He also called me into chat, where we had a further unproductive discourse.
The chat exchange begins here:
in Hub of Reason, 20 hours ago, by Sklivvz
@@Robusto@skeptics.stackexchange.com
 
Geez... how should I put it... After reading just the first four comments, I'm kinda afraid to click and read on...
(Not that I won't do it nonetheless.)
 
10:42 AM
BTW, make sure you expand the comments or there are continuity gaps.
 
Train wrecks won't watch themselves.
 
He put in a link to a spurious Google search result, then went back and edited it later after I called him on it. There seems little to which he will not stoop with his Jack-in-office unpleasantness.
 
Oh my...
LOL @ "You can have a really nice site that includes just you and the other mods"
 
^)^
 
Sounds like a plan! Mods.SE.
 
10:46 AM
The Diamond Club
 
The Lozenge Site.
No, wait.
The Lozenge Lounge.
 
The Middle-Aged Men on the Flying Trapezoid
 
Nah, I'm more like aiming for coming closer to that thing they have on Celebrity Poker Showdown.
 
You'll have to pony up some reward money then.
 
I mean the Loser's Lounge.
 
10:50 AM
But getting back to Skeptics, have you ever seen such nonsense? What is with them?
 
I dunno, really.
I mean, I can basically repeat what I've said before.
Apr 27 at 13:56, by RegDwight
Meh. I don't want to get involved in that site's politics.
Apr 27 at 14:03, by RegDwight
I answered one question there, got downvoted by mods, and upvoted by everyone else.
Apr 27 at 14:04, by RegDwight
I surely appreciate the mods' efforts, but it appears they are fighting a losing battle against their own community.
I'm not sure there's anything I can add to that.
 
Yeah. Over there It's the mods vs. the clientele. So why is everyone rooting for the clientele?
I take some small comfort in the fact that my answer crushed his, with his "reputable" sources (and a graph!) ...
 
Oh wait, he posted an answer, too?
I only read yours.
Hm, I have no idea what ODG and SDG means.
 
Yeah.
Have those mods been elected, or were they appointed? I mean, the site is still in beta.
 
I would think they were pro-tem.
I think with your mighty reps you're now eligible to vote in the upcoming elections.
 
11:01 AM
haha
 
You capitalist revolutionist.
 
Capitalizationist.
 
You knew I knew you would say that.
 
And you knew I knew you knew.
 
Semantic satiation.
 
11:03 AM
We're all full of it.
 
No knews to anyone.
 
It's plain as the knows on your face.
 
Hm... I would love to catch up with you on Skeptics, but I don't want to mess with my tags. I would need to answer more questions about Internet Nazi Hitlers. The problem is, in that category they only have questions that suck.

Q: Was Hitler Jewish?

apoorv020What evidence is there to show conclusively that Hitler was or was not Jewish or had Jewish ancestry even if he was not a practicing Jew?

Look at the top answer.
Somehow nobody's objecting to that one.
 
Pun exchange reported on NPR yesterday:
"Tomorrow I will B-52. I will never C-47 again."
"I will B-29. Time really flies."
"Aww, come on. You're just winging it."
"U-2."
@RegDwight — I think you could post authoritative answers on Internet Nazi Hitlers, but I understand your reluctance. Perhaps Internet Totalitarian Stalinists would be more your cup of tea?
 
Nah. I will start by getting a mighty +2 for fixing "Hitlers fathers mother". I'm hard on your heels.
Meanwhile, Xblast time. TTYL.
 
11:10 AM
Laterz.
 
12:09 PM
hello all
 
Moin-moin.
 
12:35 PM
moin^2
i'm appalled by this answer:
1
A: Which is the object, 'one' or 'another' ? I just don't know how this sentence constructed.

Neil"one another" can be substituted with "each other" or "themselves." It's a reflexive reference, so the object of this sentence is "people."

mostly i'm just appalled that it was accepted and upvoted twice
 
Moshi-moshi
 
F'x
1:38 PM
@JSBangs It's not accepted anymore, is it?
 
@Fx no, fortunately that was fixed
 
Hello everyone
 
hi all ..:)
whats mean by this word "susceptive" ?
 
@Miss i don't think that's a word in standard english
looks like a mistake for "suspicious", maybe?
or "susceptible"
 
I tend for the second @JSBangs
 
1:42 PM
(probably susceptible, on second thought)
 
Was just going to say that.
 
hmm its wriitten in my lectures
 
Ehm
I just found it
 
on my NOAD :D
 
1:43 PM
susceptible mean second tthought ,..right
 
But it says it's archaic... then it says (see susceptible) so yeah...
 
i did not understand you people .. any one will please clearly tell me that what is the word and its meaning
 
1 min ago, by RegDwight
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/susceptive
This is the Internet. You can click on links.
Susceptive = either "receptive" or "susceptible".
 
@Miss to sum up what we discussed above: susceptive is a rare or archaic english word. the normal word is susceptible.
 
Capable of or qualified for receiving
 
1:46 PM
here's the definition of susceptible: thefreedictionary.com/susceptible
 
Hey!
Stop plagiarizing stuff I have posted twice already.
 
ahh yes now thanks you all of people
 
@RegDwight you posted a link to susceptive. i posted to susceptible
 
@JSBangs Yes, but my link to susceptive included a link to susceptible and a link to receptive.
 
@regdwight : right
 
1:49 PM
But anyway, my question would be, who on Earth uses any of those words in a lecture?
 
my professor,..
but why, whats wrong with that word?
 
It's old
 
ahh i see,really
 
I only use words everybody understands.
 
yes i agree
 
1:51 PM
@Reg: Lies, lies, lies!
 
@RegDwight you're not a professor xD
 
Don't discount me.
 
hehe
 
For example, I use the word "Авпваойцехрварждоы" quite often.
That's because it's so easy to understand.
 
See?
And that is one of the easier ones.
 
1:52 PM
Even if you're a native speaker of Japanese.
 
ahh what does it mean/?
 
It means Regstoopid.
In Cantonese.
 
Oh, I see, so you are not native speakers of Japanese.
 
@regdwight: no its difficult to understand
 
Well, too bad. I will have to kick you both then.
 
1:53 PM
Kick?
 
heheh
 
Only people who understand such basic words are allowed here.
/kick dog
 
Ouch.
 
You understand now?
 
/eat owl
Yum.
 
1:54 PM
heheh
funny
 
That's a Communist owl. You will die.
 
o ok now i guess i should leave from here
 
A bit old and sinewy; but lethal? It isn't like the Revolution managed to roll over the world as Lenin expected...
 
@Miss Well, you can stay as long as you can promise to a) understand "Авпваойцехрварждоы" and b) not eat poisoned owls.
 
/spitout owl
 
1:56 PM
Good dog.
 
May I stay now?
 
We'll see about that.
 
heheh
/spitout owl
 
By the way, what's with that female body part?
 
Linky plz.
 
1:57 PM
what?
 
Not you.
 
Not you!
 
lol
 
That other one.
Jinx.
 
Jinx in many ways!
 
1:57 PM
ahh
 
Now that is timing.
 
Exactly.
 
Not me?
 
I dunno, are you the left or the right one?
 
Hi!
 
1:58 PM
@RegDwight lol
 
Yeah it is confusing.
 
but what do you mean by that "By the way, what's with that female body part?
"
 
I'm the middle one, and Hej
 
Miss. Pay some attention please.
Like, to Boobs.
 
@Boob middle one?
 
1:59 PM
Yes, Total Recall and all.
 
Perhaps Miss was brought up so well as to exclude any and all vulgarity...
 
We'll fix that in no time.
 
Aww.
 
@Alenanno hmmm, Should i change ?
