Français: Canal IRC/extraits choisis
This is a collection of quotes from the channels in the Wikimedia foundation's discussion channels and maybe a little from the recent changes channels if the RC-bot pulls something particularly funny. All entries here should be in fortune-compatible format, the goal here is to make a quality fortune-package. You can view these online on the toolserver.
Note: Please remove timestamps unless they're important to the humor value of the quote, but if you are going to use them please use the standard ISO 8601 date notion, also do not be afraid to edit the logs to leave out excess garbage such as another discussion which was going on at the same time or other irrelevant things, within fairness of course.
How to make a fortune cookie jar
- Execute the following program to create two files: wikimedia (the raw text of all the quotations on this page) and wikimedia.dat (a binary index into the text). Move them into your fortune cookie directory (/usr/share/fortunes or /usr/share/games/fortune).
perl -MLWP::UserAgent -e '$response = LWP::UserAgent->new->get("http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=IRC_channel_quotes&action=raw"); die $response->status_line unless $response->is_success; die "Could not find quotation block on this page.\n" unless ($text) = $response->content =~ m,<pre><nowiki>(.*)</nowiki></pre>,sx; die "open: $ARGV[0]: $!\n" unless open F, ">", $ARGV[0]; print F $text; system "strfile", $ARGV[0], "$ARGV[0].dat"' wikimedia
Quotes
Please read the bit at the top about the Fortune-compatible format to reduce time spent on maintenance of this page. The quote beginning with "<DavidGerard> yes, it's suddenly fixed" demonstrates the format. Don't wikify this, it should be directly copied from the IRC channels (there is already a <nowiki></nowiki> tag around the whole thing). Also, please wrap your lines at the 79th character (both to prevent widening of this page, and to make it usable for text-based consoles).

<[newbie]> Somebody has usurped my userrname
<bumm13> which is?...
<[newbie]> I am Cimon Avaro.
<Jeedo> lol. that sounds SOOO much like
the openining line of a porn movie
<Jeedo> 'i have gome to tingle your deepest desires'
%
<TimStarling> open source software represents a leap in
the efficiency of production of software
<TimStarling> like the transition from "cottage" textiles
to mass production
<TimStarling> the quality is worse, but it is much cheaper
<FennecFoxen> that's debatable
<TimStarling> nobody wants hand-made socks anymore
<FennecFoxen> it may have been worse at first...
<Submarine> TimStarling: open source software represents
a leap in theefficiency of production of
software --> ????
<TimStarling> for some reason when people hang around
on IRC long enough, they think coherent
arguments can be made entirely using the
question mark character
%
<AdamBishop> I also pronounce "lieutenant" the British way,
as we're supposed to, but most people don't...
<kingturtle2> is lieutenant pronounced al-OOOOOOO-MIN-eee-um?
%
<DavidGerard> yes, it's suddenly fixed
<DavidGerard> I still blame UFOs
<MykReeve> when all other explanations fall short, that's all we have left.
<FennecFoxen> unidentified floating-point objects?
<DavidGerard> FennecFoxen: IT'S THE ALIENS. THEY'RE IN IT WITH THE QUEERS.
<FennecFoxen> and with Intel math coprocessors, I'm sure...
<MykReeve> and the science people.

%
<TimStarling> it was raining, I was riding along an internal road in
the university, with people walking along the footpath
<TimStarling> and idiot girl with hood decides to suddenly change
direction and step out onto the road without looking
<TimStarling> no peripheral vision, she didn't see me until I emerged
from behind the hood, a few cm from her face
<skimpIzu> so? any contact with girls is positive. treasure your
moment
<bumm13> lol
<camembert> heh, so speaks the desperate man
<CimonAvaro> Speak of what ye lack!
<camembert> "I run girls over on my bike so I can touch them"
%
<SethIlys> Hmm... I'm getting 500 errors.
<Cyrius> yay technical difficulties!
<FennecFoxen> SethIlys- that's a lot of errors.
%
<Raul654> Jeedo - the best way to end those is
with a uniltateral declaration
<Raul654> (Like I did for Thatcher)
<FennecFoxen> heh. And when it is contested?
<Raul654> I edit the manual of style accordingly
and then cite it :)
%
<FennecFoxen> Wikipedia is throwing 1205s everywhere.
<Raul654> it's as dead as elvis, here
<Cyrius> dead as elvis here too. By that I mean it's up
and running but I don't expect anyone to believe me
%
<fabiform> What is more constructive than wikipedia?
<Jamesday> On a bad day, hitting your head with a brick
%
<sannse> please imagine that pink
<Xirzon> I'd rather not
%
<Xirzon> & is an evil magical character
<Xirzon> if you use it in your article
titles a curse will lay upon them
<Xirzon> and no good shall ever become of them
<Xirzon> I recommend "+" or "and" as non-magical
substitutions
%
<CimonAvaro> I have seen the fnords!
<Xirzon> you mean fjords CimonAvaro
%
<BillyH> If we're having Klingon, we shoud have Caveman too. ;)
<BillyH> "'''Ug''', ug ug ugugugu ug ug, ug ug, ug, ug. {{ug}}"
%
<Burgundavia> Hey, a place in the Gaza strip, would that
fall under Places in the Gaza Strip Category?
%
<Raul654> how the hell did [[List of people on stamps of Gabon]]
get on my watchlist?
%
<Raul654> I mean, is it POV to say that (for example) George Bush's
enviromental policy is terrible? No, it's a fact.
<dannyisme> we cannot say that it is terrible
<dannyisme> we would be killed for that
<dannyisme> ed poor would have a heart attack
%
<Raul654> Fennec - obviously. You aren't going to be using highways
to transport stuff between California and Hawaii
<OldakQuill> We could nail a carriage onto the back of a blue whale...
<FennecFoxen> OldakQuill, but I don't think the whale acheives optimal
speed at near-surface depths.
%
<SethIlys> lol. SpaceShipOne only passed the 100km mark by 400 feet. :)
<OldakQuill> Ah dear - what a terrible sentence that is Seth
<OldakQuill> You should gouge your eyes out for mixing Imperial and
Metric measurement systms
%
<Misirlou> SI OR DIE
<Kingturtle> You also are using english instead of esperanto
%
<Raul654> So anyway, could one of you please
put together a coherent arguement?
%
<Raul654> come on, isn't anyone here an admin on meta?
<BillyH> I think Raul654 is.
%
<VascoDaGama> Good day, friends
<Misirlou> NO IT'S NOT A GOOD DAY VASCODAGAMA
<Misirlou> THE RAIN FOREST IS DYING
<kim_> Misirlou, it is?
<Misirlou> kim_: I DON'T KNOW LET ME CHECK THE EKG
%
<Raul654> Just ignore me. My [[human brain|brain]] is misfiring
<larne> Raul654: you need some [[Coffee|wikimedicine]]
* Grunt` smirks.
<Grunt`> wikimedicine could mean: * [[Coffee]] * [[Tea]] * [[Fruit juice]]
* Other [[beverage]]s * [[Nothing]] {{disambig}}
<larne> Grunt`: {{npov}}
<larne> coffee is the *only* wikimedicine
<Raul654> Ironically, as I said earlier, I have a picture from the US
Botanic Garden with a tea bush growing next to a coffee tree
... the two staple wikipedian beverages
* Grunt` smirks.
<Grunt`> Reverted changes by larne to last version by Grunt
<larne> Reverted vandalism by Grunt
<Grunt`> rv
<larne> {{vfd}}
<Grunt`> {{delete}}
<larne> #redirect [[wikicabal]]
* Grunt` thinks this channel is starting to go wikiwacko. :P
<Grunt`> The neutrality and factual accuracy of this channel are disputed.
<larne> The sanity of this channel is disputed.
<larne> actually, it's not. I think everyone agrees it hasn't any :)
<Grunt`> This channel has been listed on Channels for Deletion. Please
see its entry there for details.
<Raul654> Oh god, what have I started?
<larne> *Delete. Pointless rambling. ~~~~
*Raul654 commits [[Wikipedia:Missing wikipeidans|Wikisuicide]]
<SethIlys> Haven't we been through this before?
<Grunt`> *Delete. Unsavable POV nonsense. -- ~~~~
<Grunt`> Yes, SethIlys. :P
<AdamBishop> Delete, vanity. ~~~~
%
<Timwi> == Should the next major version of mIRC
support parsing wiki markup? ==
<Timwi> === Votes for ===
<Timwi> # ~~~~
<Grunt`> # -- ~~~~
* larne opposes
* larne is an irc traditionalist
<TimStarling> mIRC already supports free links
<TimStarling> simple ones, anyway
<Timwi> TimStarling: Only in the sense of making them
clickable, not in the formatting sense
<larne> == Should the next version of mIRC support
subst: templates with variables? ==
%
<kim_> heh, immediately when I try to lookup tinc,
wikipedia reports a database problem ;-)
%
<AdamBishop> Reason for deletion: content was:
'I have haxored wikipedia!!! i am leet linux haxor!!! :P'
<AdamBishop> I bet that guy thought he really hacked Wikipedia
%
* Grunt` prods.. I'm getting blank page syndrome again..
<nadav> Me too
<Vikingstad> yeah... it's all over I think
<Grunt`> We're dooooooooooomed!
<Vikingstad> hehe.
<Vikingstad> wikipedia will NEVER get back.. muhahaha
<Grunt`> HEATHEN! INFIDEL!
<Vikingstad> ok, that's it for doomsday.. back up :)
<Grunt`> YaY. :P
<VascoDaGama> Don't you just love the ability to turn
doomsday on and off at will? ;)
<Grunt`> VascoDaGama: 99% of action movies will do
that to some degree. :P
<Grunt`> VascoDaGama: big scary doomsday device all ready
to go, and pushing one button or flipping one
switch turns it off. :P
<VascoDaGama> WIKIPEDIA II: THIS TIME, IT'S PERSONAL
<VascoDaGama> Time to next Wik attack: [insert ridiculously
huge digital countdown here]
%
<SethIlys> lol. Enterprise is getting the death slot. :)
<Raul654> which one?
<SethIlys> Raul: Friday at 9pm.
<Raul654> Pfft
<Raul654> let's take the set of potential star trek enterprise viewers
<Raul654> and subtract out all the people who have something better to
do on friday night
<Raul654> ...have we significantly reduced the set?
%
<larne> Today's task: find an image for [[OpenVMS filesystem]]
<Grunt`> larne: Find a hard drive that uses OpenVMS, rip it apart,
and take a pic of the platters. ;)
<DavidGerard> larne: the gates over hell, with "ABANDON HOPE ALL
YE WHO ENTER HERE" over them
<DavidGerard> if you can find a GFDL image
<Grunt`> LOL
<larne> I imagine most images of the gates of hell are
copyright by satan- he doesn't seem like the gfdl type
<Grunt`> larne: I suspect someone could do an artistic rendition
<emRick`> Satan invented copyright ... is the modern form of Babel
<Grunt`> larne: Don't know who 'someone' might be, but there must
be at least one person out there ;)
<DavidGerard> artistic renditions aren't encyclopaedic!
<Grunt`> DavidGerard: if they're unartistic enough, sure they are.
<AdamBishop> like the artistic rendition of bigfoot?
<Grunt`> DavidGerard: I'm thinking of pictures in the style
of prephotographic portraits. :P
<larne> what about an artistic rendition of a photograph?
<Grunt`> Or a photograph of an artistic rendition.
<JamesF> What about a computer 'artistic' effect
applied to a photograph?
<JamesF> Or a photograph of a photograph.
<Grunt`> Or a rendition of a rendition.
<larne> what about a sepia effect applied to an artistic rendition?
<JamesF> Or a POVRay re-rendering of the scene? :-)
<Grunt`> Whatever works and is GFDL is okay by me. :P
<DavidGerard> I HAVE CRAYONS
<Grunt`> DavidGerard: you know what to do, then! :D
<larne> I think an image of the gates of hell could be considered POV
<larne> for one, how do we know hell has gates?
<DavidGerard> larne: you are of course right. it should be
illustrating [[NTFS]]
<emRick`> larne: hell won't get get gates for a few more decades ...
bill is still pretty healthy
%
<JamesF> Some American twit on /. is saying that the people
who went to the US went to avoid "taxation without
representation". *sighs*
<DavidGerard> JamesF: YOU MUST BE SOME SORT OF TERRORIST
LOVING LIBERAL TO SAY THAT
<JamesF> David> To say that he's a twit? ;-)
<DavidGerard> YOU SOCIALIST
<DavidGerard> THE INTERNET IS AMERICAN YOU COMMIE
<DavidGerard> SEE!!!!
<JamesF> Actually, pro-Communist, but never mind :-)
<AdamBishop> well that is what Americans are taught in history classes
<emRick`> DavidGerard: THE WIKIPEDIA IS COMMIE YOU AMERICAN
<AdamBishop> he's probably some 15 year old kid who hasn't
taken a real history class yet
<DavidGerard> OMFG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
<Olathe> YOU'RE GONNA DIE, CLOWNS !
<DavidGerard> WIKIPEDIA IS LIBERTARIAN CAPITALISM
<DavidGerard> I THINK
<DavidGerard> *dies*
%
<emRick`> DavidGerard: Wikipedia is granola crunchin'
hippie-lovin' Woodstock ... no Randriods please
<Olathe> Wikipedia is a distributed computer program...
no puny humans, please.
<emRick`> Wikipedia: please don't hurt us when you become
sapient ... remember, we on #wikipedia adore you
and worship you
<JamesF> I am myself merely a small and short-term cog-part
of the great machine that is Wikipedia.
<JamesF> So, who are the spanners? ;-)
<larne> I *am* Wikipedia.
<emRick`> larne: I worship you
<DavidGerard> larne: stop crashing so much. just because you
want more computers.
<larne> DavidGerard: FEEEED MEEEEEEEEEE
<emRick`> larne to DavidGerard: I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that
%
* Grunt` grunts.
* Slizor hunts
* Grunt` wonders if Slizor is hunting Grunt
* Slizor hunts tastier things then Grunt`
* Grunt` takes offense at the fact that he isn't tasty!
<Grunt`> Have you ever tried roast Grunt? It's dee-licious.
<Grunt`> Trust me. It is. ;P
* Slizor would only hunt Grunt` if he was making sausages
<Grunt`> But..but..there's so much more potential in me!
<Raul654> Mmm... tasty
<larne> What if you were making gruntcakes?
<Slizor> (larne) : You need really fresh Grunt`
%
<Raul654> Mark - just to be an asshole, I should
mention that F-9/11 broke a record
<Raul654> It had the highest opening weekend
for a documentary, ever
<Lysine> Raul654: asshole.
%
<yath> Mark_Ryan: this movie seems to have the
potential to influence political events.
It's more important than spider man.
<FennecFoxen> yath- that's POV! :)
<yath> Oh damn! *kicks self*
%
<yath> Mark_Ryan: this movie seems to have the
potential to influence political events.
It's more important than spider man.
<FennecFoxen> yath- that's POV! :)
<yath> Oh damn! *kicks self*
<Mark_Ryan> yath: it's just a movie. I'd rather report
on its political effects when they happen,
not speculate on them beforehand
<AdamBishop> are you suggesting Spider Man will not
influence world politics?
<AdamBishop> I am appalled, sir!
%
(regarding Orkut)
<Jeedo> i recently checked back to find 150 messages
in my inbox among them 30 'give me gmail' and
105 'join x and y group'
<Grunt`> Jeedo: What were the last 15?
<Lysine> Grunt`: 'enlarge your penis'?
<Grunt`> Lysine: probably :P
%
<frazzydee> just to check if it's an issue with my skin,
could somebody try switching their skin
<Jeedo> frazzydee: just at the beginning of your sentance,

%
<Raul654> am I the only one who gets a perverse please from
seeing [[Yo Mama's Last Supper]] listed on the

<Pladask> I hope so
<Raul654> I mean, I feel required to request weird ones, or
else we'd just be left with stuff like [[poetry]]
and [[List of bondage positions]]

<Lysine> She was killed by the evil repilian peope-eating aliens
<Lysine> Didn't you hear?
<TheCustomOfLife> I said the same thing, minus the reptiles, about
Ronald Reagan about a week before he actually died.
%
<juxho> here are the basic assumptions i'm relying on: there
will be [[opinion wiki]] where strict syntax will be
required to get aggregate information to [[publish wiki]],
non-neutral-pov is the rule. there will be research
wiki where all non-neutral-pov stuff will get axed
immediatelly with a kind notice to go mess around in the
[[opinion wiki]]. [[publish wiki]] will import from
[[research wiki]] pending that someone will bet their own
credibility in declaring some information so certain that
it needs to be published. also aggregated (via SQL scripts
written in a not-yet-decided language) will be used to
automatically update the articles in [[publish wiki]] with
the aggregate information from [[opinion wiki]] with
highlights and links to the whole mess of opinions
* juxho gone to drink more beer

<VascoDaGama> Wow. Sgt Nigel Leaky had a hell of a lot of guts.
<Comrade_Nick> who's that?
<VascoDaGama> Some guy who was awarded the VC.
<Comrade_Nick> what did he do
<Raul654> with both legs blown off, he crawled into a german
machine gun nest and killed the lot of them with a
sharpened thimble
<Raul654> he then grabbed the machine gun, and turned it on
an approaching panzer column, and wiped the lot of
them out, despite losing 3 hands in the process
<yath> and his liver, and his favorite thimble

<bumm13> iron isn't that good for males, even in safer forms

<bumm13> men don't need as much iron as women

%
<TimStarling> I was just hassling someone for writing criticism
on a brainstorming page
<TimStarling> I was thinking... maybe we'd get better, more creative
brainstorming if we actively deleted all criticism
<TimStarling> in a group discussion that's not usually possible,
so perhaps a wiki is better for brainstorming
than a group discussion
<Raul654> why not just delete the critics?
<TimStarling> you can't delete people
<Raul654> you're not being creative enough
%
<Lysine> wikisloooooooooooow.
<Raul654> Lysine - blame me :)
<Lysine> Raul654: I did, see above.
%
<Raul654> for a pre-opt transexual, calling them by their preferred
gender is both POV and factually debatable.
<Lysine> Raul654: So is *not* Doing that.
<Raul654> Lysine - agreed
<Raul654> ...so, since we're boned both ways, we might as well make
a policy
%
<Lysine> Grunt`: yes; blame raul
<Lysine> he is a vindicious roll trying to destroy wiki
<Raul654> I like being a delicious roll :)

<Gachet> Hi everyone. I am not sure to understand the topic
of the channel: is WP horribly slow because it is
on display in the UN Foyer?
<yath> Gachet: No, it's just nifty that it's on display there.
It's slow because it's always slow.
<Gachet> Who is in the UN Foyer? Three billions users surfing WP? :-)
<Slizor> It's slow because of single mothers and asylum seekers
<FennecFoxen> it's slow because we are insufficiently rich to keep it fast
with as many users as use it.
<Slizor> (FennecFoxen) : And we are insufficiently rich because of
single mothers and asylum seekers!
<OldakQuill> Yes, "ASYLUM SEAKERS CAUSE HOUSE PRICES TO PLUMET AND WIKIPEDIA

We have gone through every line of code in every program in every

backups and historic archives, and modified all data to reflect the
change. We are proud to report that we have completed the "Y-to-K"
date change mission, and have now implemented all changes to all
programs and all data to reflect your new standards: Januark,
Februark, March, April, Mak, June, Julk, August, September, October,

to be honest, none of this Y to K problem has made any sense to me.

in any way possible. And what does the year 2000 have to do with it?

separates the words. the space is unnecessary and wasteful, so don't
