We could go for a drink and put a picture of Tuomas on the table and say his name three times. Maybe he'd turn up then.

― caek, Tuesday, 16 July 2013 18:32 (ten years ago) link

― iatee, Tuesday, 16 July 2013 18:40 (ten years ago) link
I wouldn't do it. Not worth it if you draw the short straw.

I have pretty much lost my voice after four days in NYC. Probably a combination of pollution and a/c?
― wakaflockinihilipilification (seandalai), Tuesday, 16 July 2013 18:56 (ten years ago) link
A/C will do that.

i was in new york this past weekend, super fun. you guys ever eat those fried octopus balls? in that small place with like, maximum capacity 3 customers? so good

it's an ikea sofa and armchair, allegedly 1 year old (and i believe it from the photos)
hmm

wanted this one http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/fuo/3924788356.html but may have low-balled the offer. no reply.
the guy http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/fuo/3938477349.html seems reasonable from his texts (ha) and i've talked him down from the asking price
what if i get bed bugs and then i die?

just carry it home in the nyc sun, that should be hot enough to roast the bugs

if i pay my bill on the ConEd website by giving them my routing and account #, and they now say i don't owe them any money, when should the money actually disappear from my account?

like a day or two, i think?

I don't know what you delicate blossoms are complaining about, I smoke AND sleep in the AC, and apart from being so dehydrated that my eyelids stick to my eyeballs in the morning, I'm absolutely fine.

i have a headache, but i doubt it's from the a/c. it's more likely from the sweating all day everyday.

and not staying hydrated properly.
What do you mean, not staying hydrated. I watched you drink at least 36oz of beer last night, beer has water in it.
― Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Tuesday, 16 July 2013 23:56 (ten years ago) link
i was driving and walking around all day and had nothing to drink but coffee, it was sooooo not a good idea.
― i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Tuesday, 16 July 2013 23:58 (ten years ago) link
also, there are 16 ounces to the pint not 12.

Oh, whoops. I knew pint glasses were 16oz, I just did the math wrong.

we turned on the a/c and I immediately got sick, like I do every year when it gets turned on

Thanks for bill pay tips. Guess ill be phoning ppl tomorrow.

lololol
I don't, I left mine in the window from last summer. The freezing draft in January was a small price to pay to have my own personal Horn of Winter at my disposal as soon as I plugged it in.

get a fancy one with a reverse fan mode and you can use it as a smoking exhaust fan
― mh, Wednesday, 17 July 2013 01:12 (ten years ago) link
Afaict air conditions when they are on "fan" don't bring in any outside air, they just recirculate what's already inside. I've always wanted the outside air option, because then I could also use my a/c as a $200 WINDOW FAN, instead of having to go buy another fan-type machine.

lol i recall having to break out/situate my a/c unit last year upon arriving home from yr fateful birthday party, in orbit
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 17 July 2013 01:21 (ten years ago) link
that one I was installing when I first arrived was a lemon and I have upgraded to one with an external air option. The normal recirculate mode is cheaper to run right?

xxp oh lol yes that was the weirdest party ever, also the next day was legendary.
xp huh maybe I shouldn't have gotten the cheapest one PC Richards had 3 years ago.
― Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Wednesday, 17 July 2013 01:33 (ten years ago) link
They make a/c units with a fan, I think? Just not common.

since Tuomas went MIA, let's have a drinkup once the weather gets marginally normal in his absence.

yes to drinks always. max and i were thinking about next thursday?
if i am getting a man with a van, and there are two guys, and the bill is x, do i tip them each 0.2x, or do i tip 0.2x total and have them split it?
― caek, Wednesday, 17 July 2013 17:30 (ten years ago) link
kinda depends on x I think

x is 120
― caek, Wednesday, 17 July 2013 17:33 (ten years ago) link
maybe tip them each 15?

Meant to come to that thing a few Fridays ago, but had to work later than I thought and had a ticket to see Marisa Monte at the Beacon- it was the first time she's been here in seven years. And to think I thought this board had cured me of liking music.
