The infovore googles some lyrics

I have a metaphor for a certain kind of infovore vs. non-infovore interaction that involves Mr. The Deathless and a lot of shouting. This is one way I didn't have that interaction tonight.

So tonight's entertainment was a spot of Googling. Doranwen in #yuletide was trying to puzzle out the lyrics to a song: Dies Ire, Elf.

[23:10] <@Doranwen> anyone here good at making out difficult to hear lyrics?
[23:11] <@Doranwen> I've been stumped by this one song for years
[23:12] <@Doranwen> you can't google the words for love or money
[23:12] <@Doranwen> unfortunately the Youtube video that has the song has a version of it with a little more audio clutter, the version I have on my computer is very simple and you can hear the voice clearly--you just can't figure out what on earth he's singing!
[23:12] <@Azz> I am not great at it, but I could give a whack?
( A whack was more than given. )

Times when my lack of comics knowledge has shortened a pun war: today.

"Sometimes I think I've lost my marbles."
"Didn't you used to keep a marble in the pocket of your suit jacket?"
"Yeah, but I can't find it anymore. I've lost my marbles."
[Something involving a b/v blur occurs.]
"Well, at least it's not DC."
"I dunno, living in DC would be ... Super, man."
"You'd have to be bats. No, wait, that's Gotham."
[something something Robin something]
"That was a ... Dick move."
"Sometimes I ... wonder, woman."

BEST.
