[07:09:33] <chromas> god what a retard
[07:19:53] <halibut> God: Chromas' comment is not representative of the members of this site. Please do not rain fire and brimstone on the entire site.
[07:22:37] <chromas> That's just what ari would want though
[07:22:39] <chromas> and zumi
[07:24:36] <halibut> I do try to avoid fire and brimstone. It's unhealthy for most animal species, but fish are particularly vulnerable.
[07:25:34] -!- Runaway1956 [Runaway1956!~some@the.abyss.stares.back] has joined #soylent
[07:27:42] <halibut> Hmm ... There's Runaway1956__ @IP_HASH, and Runaway1956 @ the.abyss.stares.back. Which one stared into the abyss too long, and which is the result of that?

[07:29:09] <halibut> Oh no! The abyss swallowed that one!

[07:50:19] <chromas> halibut: so when people tell stories about you, do you get longer each time?
[07:51:39] <chromas> like when your mom talks about you being a baby does she go "and he was thiiiiiis big" with arms astretch
[07:51:52] <requerdanos> And isn't the water an effective protection against fire and brimstone?
[07:53:04] <chromas> Good point
[07:53:11] <chromas> Maybe the water boils. Do people like boiled fish?
[07:53:18] <halibut> The fish story comparison is highly amusing. However, given the particular wording used, I think I will refrain from answering the question.
[07:53:41] <requerdanos> it takes a lot of heat to boil a body of water.
[07:53:53] <halibut> Water is good protection against small amounts of fire and brimstone, but enough fire and brimstone can make the water quite uninhabitable, even without boiling the water.
[07:54:07] <chromas> Do we know the limits of the fire and/or brimstone though?
[07:54:20] <requerdanos> I see, from the pollution angle. Makes sense there I suppose.
[07:54:22] <halibut> Fish tend to be a little touchy to poisonous gases and/or even fairly moderate temperature changes.
[07:55:23] <chromas> I need to know how many inches
[07:55:28] <chromas> or are fish metric too?
[07:55:40] <halibut> Deities credited with creating the world are not always known for being subtle with their fire and brimstone. I doubt people pass down tales and legends about the deity who tossed a hot pebble in a glass of water and made lukewarm tea.
[07:55:41] <requerdanos> yah I was going to say centimeters
[07:56:38] <chromas> still sounds american
[07:56:48] <chromas> how about centimetres?
[07:57:22] <requerdanos> sounds suitably unamericanised.
[07:58:07] <halibut> I do not get to hear many fish stories (after all, they are only told when I am not there). Can you get somebody telling a fish story to give both length and weight/mass? Does the latter increase as the cube of the former, or, as the tale progresses, does the density of the fish become ludicrous?
[07:58:17] <chromas> those dang'ol britz and their hatred of the lettre sed
[07:58:55] <requerdanos> whereas the spanish call it -- and pronounce it -- theta
[07:59:47] <chromas> tall tails are thin so they don't add much weight
[08:00:07] <requerdanos> length, however, is another story
[08:00:37] <requerdanos> usually one doesn't see bragging about a fish's, say, girth, for example.
[08:00:41] <chromas> true but it depends how you angle it
[08:00:47] <halibut> E.g. At first telling, the fish was 10 handspans long, and weighed as much as somebody's pet dog. Later on, the fish is 100 handspans, and weighed as much as 10 dogs. With a few more tellings, the fish could be the size of a skyscraper, and weigh as much as a single large truck.
[08:01:06] <chromas> in portrait mode, the tale gets ever taller
[08:01:38] <halibut> How do you feel about people who record horizontal fish with their phone in the portrait orientation?
[08:01:40] <chromas> no it should weigh as much as a single skyscraper
[08:02:07] <chromas> vertical is how you make it look sinomatic
[08:02:17] <requerdanos> once caught, fish are frequently displayed vertically anyway
[08:02:40] <halibut> I prefer to have my picture taken while uncaught, thanks anyways.
[08:03:02] <requerdanos> well, you would, for obvious reasons, which I respect.

[16:20:28] <fab23> FatPhil: so all fine then, and probably 10kg more weight :)

[17:34:04] <FatPhil> well, we ate brilliantly, certainly, but there was more an emphasis on quality than quantity.
[17:34:19] <FatPhil> it was one of my worries before I went!
[17:34:51] <FatPhil> I think we were well over 20000 steps some days, though, including a fair bit of altitude change, so maybe it balanced out.
[17:37:13] <janrinok> did you actually lose weight?
[17:50:22] <fab23> /o\ s/FatPhil/Phil/ :)
[18:38:33] <FatPhil> I don't permit a set of weighing scales in the flat, so I have no idea ;-p
[18:44:48] <janrinok> lol
[18:53:14] <janrinok> That's me done for the day - see you all tomorrow
[19:26:05] <fab23> FatPhil: wise move, helps probably for a more relaxed life too.
[19:27:35] <AzumaHazuki> i keep one around...have been keeping to just-under-130lb because of it. am sure there will be some spikes due to the holiday season but i'm generally good about weight and food
[19:38:07] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Google Kills Stadia - https://sylnt.us
[19:50:44] <FatPhil> I like to think I can eyeball weights quite well. Bought a flat iron steak today, saw one with some lovely delicate marbelling, did the obligatory hand weighing gesticulation, and confidently told the g/f it was 800-900g, but nearer the former, eight-thirty-something. Was 835g. I won. She paid. :)
[20:30:31] <chromas> What was her estimate?
[21:12:42] <FatPhil> "no idea". I did\t say it was a difficult victory.
