(Old stuff: January 14, Friday) Roomba shenanigans, and the Book of Wholesome Hobbies

Came back from shopping, and R. Daneel was charged again. Set him to Roombulating. Had to run away from IRC for a few moments because he'd started chewing on someone else's charger cable, and was attempting to run away with it.

[00:19] azurelunatic OH GOD R DANEEL
[00:19] azurelunatic BRB
[00:19] cme ?
[00:21] azurelunatic it's like toddlers, in a way.
[00:21] azurelunatic you think you have made the area sufficiently safe, and then you set them loose, and you're keeping half an eye on them and chatting with your friends
[00:22] azurelunatic and suddenly it's R. DANEEL, STOP EATING THAT ELECTRICAL CORD THIS INSTANT
[00:22] azurelunatic YOU NAUGHTY ROOMBA
[00:23] cme oooooooooooooooh
[00:23] cme yes! I have had this roomba experience as well!

[00:24] azurelunatic: (and R. Daneel started eating electrical cords. :D )
[00:24] niqaeli: a cannibal, huh?
[00:24] niqaeli: *g*
[00:25] azurelunatic: I won't start fearing that until he noms a bluetooth headset or something
[00:26] niqaeli: heh
[00:26] niqaeli: that's fair
[00:27] azurelunatic: (because, I mean, it's not like he doesn't try to eat his OWN power cord.)
[00:27] niqaeli: heh.
[00:42] * azurelunatic has pinned him in my closet-hallway
[00:46] niqaeli: aw, no more freedom for roomba?
[00:47] azurelunatic: Less freedom, more deep vacuuming of the closet.
[00:47] niqaeli: ahhh
[00:48] azurelunatic: (I got a bathrobe. the bathrobe is black microplush. my apartment is carpeted in industrial beige.)
[01:11] azurelunatic: aww, he's herded all my shoes into a pile.

An excerpt from The Book of Wholesome Hobbies That Denise Has Forbidden Her Volunteers From Taking Part In:

• Deleting every single comment that an ex-friend has left in your journal and marking it as spam. (It's the marking it as spam part that's forbidden. Delete to your heart's content.)
• Feeding the trolls.
• Hanging out with that guy who points AK-47s at you.
• Making a large number of completely outlandish suggestions in dw_suggestions for the sole purpose of making the person handling the moderation queue crack up.
• http://qdb.dreamwidth.net/dw/258

On Julian Assange ending sentences with two spaces after the period, me: "Of all the things one could judge him for, that sounds amazingly nitpicking/petty. I'm not above a good spelling flame, but that's sort of like telling George W. Bush his ears are big."

5:47 PM
suggestion: allow moderator to report-as-spam in a comm as well, given that they can do it from the moderation queue?

I learned about spontaneous pistachio combustion.
