if youve ever seen a movie. ever. you will recognize the people in the videos
just watch it, its hilarious
BGreeNZ will not watch it unless it is streamable at < 56Kbps, or it's really worth waiting for the download
im watching it twice
BGreeNZ curses the New Zealand government for allowing Telecom New Zealand to retain their monopoly on the local-loop telephone network, thus keeping the cost of ADSL broadband high and under the control of an evil monopoly...
BGreeNZ waits for the flash "website" to load
i thought it was funny at least
now i want to stay up and see if you think its funny >.<
BGreeNZ stares at the Quicktime logo in the otherwise blank tab and window, and continues to wait...
does that mean its broke or slow?

I hate the evil empire
BGreeNZ dusts the cobwebs off Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, throws it at http://www.donlafontaine.com/, adds it to the Trusted Sites to enable ActiveHex, and continues to wait...
SenRepus

SenRepus

Muz
Well, not after extreme levels of effort
BGreeNZ
About to click on Video #4. Wish me luck...
SenRepus
:/ man im sorry for making you do this
BGreeNZ waits while a QuickTime movie of undetermined size downloads
youre going to think its dumb and hate me for making you watch it
Muz
What isi t?
SenRepus
i cant say because it ruins it
its a video i thought was funny
BGreeNZ
SenRepus: You can probably understand why I hate Flash so-called-websites :)
Muz
Fair do;s
BGreeNZ
Wow! I can see the Quicktime progress bar beyond the position marker!
SenRepus
:/
Muz goes back to not being able to sleep and playing RO really half arsedly
i have to be up in 5 hours
i do that with WoW too
play with one hand because im too sleepy to put the other one to the keybard
Muz
I can't sleep and I'm really really tired
BGreeNZ eyeballs the Quicktime progress bar and guesstimates 20% complete
nikki_ blinks
Mornin'
SenRepus
morning nikki
BGreeNZ blinks back
Muz
So rather than lay in bed I'll sit here lvling up falling asleep every other minute then waking up thanks to stupid gut pains
SenRepus
too much choco?
Muz
Nah
SenRepus
id blame caffine or meat, i havent had a stomach ache since i stopped having those two things
Muz
My mouth hurts a hell of a lot and thus eating is a nightmare atm, and for some reason I have really bad pains throughout my gut
Heh, it sure ain't meat, nor caffeine
BGreeNZ eyeballs the Quicktime progress bar and guesstimates 25% complete
So it's basically inconvenience in my stomach, gut and mouth stopping me from sleeping :\
BGreeNZ eyeballs the Quicktime progress bar and guesstimates 33% complete
Awwww puppies on TV : D
SenRepus goes to look at the dread braid he thinks he just made
BGreeNZ continues to eat his icecream, while waiting
nikki_
tiiiired
Muz
BGreeNZ, how much ice cream have you got?!
BGreeNZ
Muz: Just a platefull. Most of it has melted because I have been chatting instead of eating
BGreeNZ eyeballs the Quicktime progress bar and guesstimates 45% complete
Muz
Ah I was going to say
either it's all liquidlike and you eat slowly, or you've got a hell of a lot
BGreeNZ
The hokey-pokey is still crunchy, though ;-)
Muz
Hmmm hokey-pokey is somewhat a national NZ thingy iirc
BGreeNZ
Oh, and I got handed a Luxury Flake, which didn't help either
nikki_ attempts ot stay awake
Muz wishes he could eat
BGreeNZ prefers chocolate ice-cream
Muz
Actually, I'd be happy being able to move my mouth and not suffer levels of pain :\
Jetpack
whats wrong with your mouth?
Muz
Ever since the anaesthesia from yesterday wore off it's been hurting a hell of a lot, which can't be good
I had dental work done yesterday
Jetpack
must have been quite serious if its still sore today
Muz
That or something's gone wrong :P
SenRepus
mouth pain is really irritating
Muz
Invariably
nikki_ knows how muz feels
nikki_
I spent friday in agony
Muz
What happened then?
nikki_
dentist
Muz
Eep
Being at the dentist was no walk in the park either
It wasn't the first time I'd had needles and stuff in my mouth, but for some reason nerves got the better of me and I trembling :\
SenRepus
i only had enough hair ties laying around to make 3 dread braids but they look badass
BGreeNZ eyeballs the Quicktime progress bar and guesstimates 80% complete
Muz can only find 3 hair ties, 1 on his wrist and two on his right speaker
i usually *like* needles but not in my mouth
(i usually like being poked, but not in my mouth, if you wanna make it sound dirty)
Muz
I don't mind them that much, and I don't know why I was so damned nervous
I've had it done before and I was more than comfortable with it heh
BGreeNZ can only find one hairtie, and it's holding his ponytale in
Muz dislikes tieing his hair back so rarely does it
BGreeNZ sees flashes of light and hears loud music as the movie unexpectedly starts playing
orogor has quit
SenRepus
theres no chance you will think its funny after all this work
Muz laughs at the firecracker on TV and the stupid kid moaning about the noise
Muz
You don't know noise until you have a fully automativ 7.62 firing next to your ear... with no ear protection
BGreeNZ finishes watching the video, and blinks as he sets his monitor to 640x480 so he doesn't have to squint so much to see it
SenRepus
you thought it was stupid didnt you?
BGreeNZ maximizes his IE and ChatZilla windows, to make them smaller
BGreeNZ adjusts the refresh rate to something less -atros- -atrotiu- annoying than the default 60Hz
Muz
Atrocious?
BGreeNZ starts playing the video again
BGreeNZ
Muz: Yes
What an atrocious word :)
Muz
Hah
I think my dad is going to kill me if I keep this up
