I mean...I can see the resemblance. This fellow's in the Void dungeon. Which also fits.



[21:47] Mxxxxx Yxxx: can anyone point me in the direction of a good monocle i feel like i saw one recently but damned if i can find it nowMeet Mistah J. Darn you, autocoffee!
[21:47] Sxxxxx Dxxxxxxx: Engine Room has one
[21:47] Sxxxxx Dxxxxxxx: I believe
[21:48] dxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: There's one in the contraception shop too, on the right as you come in amongst the eyewear.
[21:48] Sxxxxx Dxxxxxxx: it was either that or We Love RoleplayMany of us do.
[21:48] Mxxxxx Mxxxxxxx: lol
[21:48] Hunter (drunkenmonkeystyle): Rip it off of old pennybags
[21:48] Mxxxxx Mxxxxxxx: contraception haha
[21:48] Sxxxxx Dxxx: Contraption
[21:48] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr) knows what [Jxxx] meant, but now she's amused by the concept of the contraception shop also carrying monacles
[21:48] Vxxxxxxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: The Kosmii one at NeoJapan I assume?
[21:48] dxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: oh jfc im so sorry
[21:48] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Because....reasons
[21:48] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): No, truly, it's fine
[21:48] dxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: I need to use the sleep. x_x
[21:50] sxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: (wonders if monocles can be used as contraception)Can't leave puns alone, they tend to breed, after all...
[21:51] pxxxxxxxxxxx Sxxxx: only condomonocles
[21:51] sxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: hehehehe good one
[21:51] dxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: What have I done
[21:52] axxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Doesn't that comic Saturday Morning cereal or what ever have single use monocoles
[21:52] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): If it wasn't you, it would surely be someone else. Unusual conversations are nearly as common here as in Caledon.
[21:52] sxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: hmm looks like the jokes are
[21:52] sxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: reproducing
[21:53] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr) giggles
[21:53] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): That was terrible.
[21:53] sxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: well, [Jxxx]'s comment was pretty
[21:53] sxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: seminal
[21:54] dxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: Really I think this is just getting Blown out of proportion.
[21:54] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr) facepalms
[10:20] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: By happy coincidence, the Mad Scientists' Ball on March 14 is on Albert Einstein's birthday......That is so bad. Amusing, but so bad.
[10:21] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Because of course.
[10:21] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: It's Caledon, so it makes perfect sense for Caledon......
[10:21] Uxxxxxx Sxxxxxxxx: Newton is dead, Einstein died, and I already feel sick myself.
[10:22] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Standing on the shoulders of giants gives you a much better view when the giants themselves are standing.....Boo...hiss... :D
[10:22] Pxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: What was Einstein mad about, anyway?
[10:23] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Action at a distance, I think. And the Copenhagen interpretation......Well, he was at least born in Denmark, if not precisely Copenhagen.
[10:23] Uxxxxxx Sxxxxxxxx: about his wife
[10:24] Pxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: By a strange coincidence, I'm working on Andersen's fairy tales at the moment
[10:26] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: What an interesting conversation this is.
[10:27] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Was he interpreted in Copenhagen? Probably.....
[10:27] Uxxxxxx Sxxxxxxxx: when?
[10:28] Hxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: Caledon is prone to interesting conversations. :)It's starting to feel a bit by one of his, yes.
[10:28] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: Oh yes.
[10:28] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): it's a tendency. Or a side effect.
[10:28] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: I usually just lurk but find myself entertained often. Especially when it's about cats.
[10:28] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): One of those.
[10:29] Pxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: It could be a script by Tom Stoppard
[10:30] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: We might or might not mention Schrödinger's cat. No way to know for sure.....
[10:30] Hxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx stifles a giggle
[10:31] Pxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxxx: I don't believe that Schrödinger knew whether it was actually his cat

[10:31] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: He couldn't have until he opened the box......I am not at all surprised that Mr. Hax made his way into this conversation.
[10:32] exxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Cat probably has strong opinions about that but quantum physicists disregard it
[10:34] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I wonder if the cat could, by having an opinion, collapse the wave function before someone opens the box....
[10:35] Mxxx Mxxxxxxx: I have a Denver Hax made Schrödinger cat
[10:36] Hxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: oooh
[10:36] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: He might not have been sure that he made it......"Sweet".
[10:36] Mxxx Mxxxxxxx: oh its a bunny
[10:36] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Sweet....

[10:36] Hxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I have a cat named Schrödinger on my lap at the momentThat would be the vorpal bunny, yes. They used to run rampant on St. Kitt's. (See historical documentation, part one, and part two.)
[10:37] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Oh no. One of the exploding bunnies is still on the grid?
[10:37] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): RUN
[10:37] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Nice. My RL avi sometimes needs to negotiate with her cat over access to the keyboard....
[10:38] Hxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Schrödinger does not believe in negotiations
[10:38] Mxxx Mxxxxxxx: Schrödinger's Bunny Experiment: You Killed the Wabbit!
[10:48] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: there's a piranha rabbit behind [Cxxxxxxx]'s house that will attack you until you leave the parcel.
[10:48] Hxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: aka vorpal bunny?
[10:49] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: I believe it is called "perfectly innocent rabbit" or something to that effect.
[10:49] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: O frabjous day! Kalloo-KALLAY!But I could be wrong, to be fair. Maybe Mr. Hax was always the source of dangerous toys.
[10:49] Hxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: :D
[10:49] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): That also sounds like a Hax invention, to be fair.
[10:49] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: it is.
[10:50] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: There is no such thing as perfect innocence, especially in Caledon
[10:50] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: he also left a my little pony on the mountain. same thing.
[10:50] Hxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: There's probably some of the exploding turkeys (?) I think it was running round Stormhold and a few other places.
[10:50] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Well, he didn't invent those, those came first, I believe.[[Late insert from the Editrix: I am doubly wrong, Mr. Hax DID invent the exploding turkeys.]]
[10:50] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: there's an exploding turkey in tanglewood stillI don't know, how often does Mr. J explode?
[10:51] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: No sim should be entiely without an exploding something or other.....
[10:52] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: stormhold has [Sxxx], does that count?
[10:52] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): For anyone who may not know, who arrived after the departure of Mr. Hax...he was less a mad scientist, and...more a minor deity. And he dearly loved things that blew up.I won't say Mr. Hax and I were fast friends, or that I knew him intimately. We argued terribly from time to time. But I did know him enough, having had several talks on the value of things that attack avatars, things that explode avatars, and varieties of tea, that I believe I'm comfortable making that statement.
[10:52] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr) laughs
[10:52] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Adding enough kale and andouille sausage might do it.....
[10:53] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: I am sad I never got to meet him. sounded like a fun guy.
[10:53] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): I think you'd have liked each other. :D
[10:54] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: me too......I'm always a little wistful about the Old Days for having missed them.....There are things I miss, but overall, in spite of the insane pace of upgrades, the glitching, the inherent problems in the system, now...I think Second Life is more balanced these days. Of course, this is someone speaking who knew said Old Days, having lived through them. ("SOOOO old", Edward said. That is still making me laugh. Yes, ancient of days, disintegrating as we speak into vaguely unnerving dust and bits of strange fur.)
[10:55] txxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I sometimes wonder if he's still about in a different guiseCase in point:
[10:57] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Well. Always possible.
[10:57] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): If it helps, Miss [Txxxx], the avatars are a LOT better now. :D
[10:58] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: I probably would have. but then again I'm not sure that much chaos and destruction in one place would have ended well.
[10:58] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): I look back at old pictures and just shake my head at the graphics. (Though...that could also be who I was dating at the time. :D )
[10:58] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): It may not!
[10:58] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): He blew up St. Kitt's all on his own, after all. No one helped! :D
[10:58] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: oh, yeah, SL used to be ugly as sin.
[10:58] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr) grins
[10:59] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I don't have old pictures of my self--came on around 8 yrs ago. That was a wise judgment, I've been told.....
[10:59] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: very wise.

[10:59] txxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: And now it's a horrid mishmash of incompatible body parts and clothing. I'm not sure we've gained that much.Oh, I don't know. Yes, it's harder now to make exactly what one wants--I mean, I've been trying to learn enough of mesh to capture a certain avatar look for over a decade now, and still haven't managed it--but there are more options, I suppose, is the main point.
[11:00] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: I spent years as a female avatar because I couldn't get the male avs to look like what I wanted.All in all, fun conversation. And some food for thought. Schröderanged as it was.
[11:00] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I don't see a reason to get a mesh head--the ones I've seen all look as if they're around 1 5 years old.....
[11:01] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr) grins. Or pouty runway models, yes.
[11:01] txxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: And I'm neither of the above, not hardly......
[11:02] Gxxxxxxx Hxxxx: I like my head. in fact I look quite horrifying without it. and I don't mean in the decapitation way.
[11:02] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Though that is a disturbing enough image
[11:19] rxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx:
[11:20] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Wow.
[11:21] rxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Every day is Halloween in [Lxxx] world
[11:23] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): As it should be.
[11:23] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): I, also, try to keep the spirit of the season year 'round.
[11:23] rxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx:
a friend said " You look like you're about to draw me into some really creepy circus tent"
[11:24] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): Not inaccurate, as an impression.
[11:25] rxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: It does have that feel yes, a pure accident really but those are the best
[11:25] txxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Am I the only person thinking of this song...?
[11:26] mxxxxxx Lxxxxx: It is quite incredible look, I do love the colors
[11:26] rxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx laughs

[11:28] rxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: TY [Fxxxx] it's as usual a Frankenstein get up
[11:28] Emilly Shatner-Orr (emilly.orr): That works too.

[14:18] Violet Scrivener (violetscrivener): oh?

[14:22] Violet Scrivener (violetscrivener): I believe it.
