Blaze:
hi | |
Fri. 11/16/18 11:27pm
Blaze:
Started hearing WFMU on the radio today and wondered what it was | |
![]() |
![]() i practically never send email, except via craigslist. (and occasional love letters to senders of solicitations, amazon surveys, etc, that go something like " kindly take a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut" or " maybe you'll get eaten alive by hyenas, from the ass,up") but i never get "auto filled-in". |
![]() |
![]() Welcome, Blaze! it's a good day then. |
![]() |
![]() Flying F at a Rolling D was a curse in a Vonnegut book? Must re-read. |
![]() |
![]() Aitch i wondered who'd recognise that! i forget which book it was. |
![]() |
![]() Welcome, Blaze! |
![]() |
![]() Slapstick |
![]() |
![]() Hoping you'd know without me searching coela. They're (mostly) all good in a mad-genius kind of way. Much like WFMU itself. |
![]() |
![]() @coel: wait, I can flying fuck into a donut?!!! I need to study this out more! The logistical physics seem challenging. |
![]() |
![]() fleep Thanks. That was my first guess; and one of my favorites. |
![]() |
![]() Ta Fleep. That was a good one. |
![]() |
![]() ngh, don't hurt yourself! |
![]() |
![]() Goodnight everyone. |
![]() |
![]() @coel: accidentally hurting myself is my specialty (I think we scared Melinda to sleep) |
![]() |
![]() 'night melinda |
![]() |
![]() ngh i've heard! what's this about going through, what was it a "sound light"? |
![]() |
![]() this piece cornfuses me |
![]() |
![]() thx daniel, be seeing you... |
![]() |
![]() Hey Daniel! How are you? I feel a bit meh, but okay. Regarding Google auto replies, they almost make sense when you understand that in the western world if you ask someone “How are you?” they will most likely say, “Fine!” even when miserable. So all Google is doing is making it easier for people who are not fine to just say “Fine!” But it still stinks. Waiting for some email about death or something horrible and Google to suggest, “Wow!” or something. |
![]() |
![]() PS: My co-worker spent 8 hours getting home from work last night, got 3 hours of sleep and when I asked how he was this morning he almost said, “Fine!” but caught himself and said, “3 hours sleep. Going home at noon.” |

rw:
One day soon the auto response will respond to the auto response and we won't have to worry about it. | |

![]() If you have a Siri device and an Alexa device you can tell Siri to tell Alexa to do things. So funny! |
