---- Recall start ---- Misericordius tries to imagine Victorian Spice ... the one with the bustle, long dress, high collar and parasol... zarf says, "My new boss says he keeps a small bottle of pure capsaicin around. For cooking purposes. Measures with an eyedropper." Ivan says (to zarf), "Doctors were trying to figure out how to use it to build up an immunity to burn pain for burn victims." You say, "Bustle Spice" Ivan exclaims, "Busty Spice!" You say, "very different from Busty Spice" You say, "tmng" Ivan laughs. Ivan says (to zarf), "Watch your coffee carefully." sherbert imagines Check Out spice, a lesbian advocate with three rings in her eyebrow who works at the local grocery store... Christopher asks (to sherb), "nothing personal, tho, right?" sherbert says (to Christ), "nope." Ivan says, "Snow White and the Seven Spices. Grumpy Spice, Sneezy Spice, etc." Christopher asks, "did you go on that date with her?" You ask (to sherbert), "that's Stand Up Spice, isn't it?" Ellison asks (to sherb), "you talk to her since she ditched you?" Misericordius wonders why the Victorian women were so anxious to give themselves oversized behinds. Caoif says, ".." sherbert says (to Ellison), "no, I go to a different store now, one that's far away" Ivan says (to Misericordius), "So they could carry their pet parakeets with them." You say (to Mis), "breast implants would have been much more sensible" Ivan says (to inky), "Eew. Iron framework breast implants." Misericordius likes Ivam Misericordius likes Ivan's parakeet idea sherbert says, "Boobs would be neat if you could open them up and store stuff inside... kinda like tupperware." Ivan laughs. (From Caoif) Jack the Ripper arrives, looking for Victorian women to slice up. zarf suffers imagination failure. Christopher says (to sherb), "well, i dunno" Ellison says (to sherbert), "I think you should go back to that store.... and tell her that God forgives her for her sins and NOW is her chance to step into the light, and 'ye shall be received'" Ivan says, "Instead, he settles for her pet parakeet." Caoif says (to sherbert), "Interesting." Christopher says, "I think that would be a little too similar to tupperware" (From inky) Jack is put off by the enormous variety of bustles. You say, "burping.." Ivan says, "Titterware." You say, "hee" Misericordius asks (to sherbert), "Didn't women use to hide handkerchiefs and money and stuff in between their, uh, mammaries?" Christopher says, "it is still possible, I am told" Ivan says (to Miser), "Yeah, back in the good old stone age." zarf says (to Misericordius), helpfully, "Boobs." Ivan laughs. Caoif nods. sherbert says (to Ivan), "and you can't just buy it, you have to go to an authorized Titterware dealer and have it installed." Ivan reads helpfully as hopefully. Misericordius says, "The phrase 'gold in them thar hills' takes on a whole new meaning...." Ellison exclaims (to sherbert), "I have yet to buy, but I have LOTS of catalogs!" Ivan says, "Argh." zarf says, "Wouldn't be a dealer; it would be multi-level marketing. With Titterware parties." Christopher ponders this. Ivan laughs at Ellison's joke. Christopher asks, "but, really, what would you store in them?" Ivan gives funnier joke prize to Ellison. Christopher asks, "leftovers or something?" You say, "erm" Spatch is wearing an Official Caoif Fanclub TM pin and miniskirt. He catches you looking at him funny and sneers.

He catches you looking at him funny and sneers. Caoif says (to Christopher), "Money, keys, other items..." Misericordius says (to Christopher), "Cheese, of course." Christopher says, "ah." sherbert says (to Christopher), "anything you wanted... Purses? screw that, stick everything in your boobs." DorianX has disconnected. [DorianX] I was with you on that palace, steaming, spinning round in circles, dreaming. DorianX has connected. [DorianX] And starring the lord God almighty, as himself Caoif smiles. DorianX says, "fuck I am screwed" Christopher says, "I think it would be a bit inconvenient to retrieve stuff in public" Ivan exclaims (to DorianX), "Greetings to you too!" Misericordius says (to Caoif), "I thought the mark of a Real Woman (besides not pumping gas) was that she carried EVERYTHING in her purse ... except cash." Caoif says (to christopher), "I suppose you have a point there." DorianX says, "I tried increasing the max_indiv_prop_table_size, and that bought my one more object, but after that, kaputz" Christopher says, "uh" sherbert asks (to Christ), "perhaps... but still, walking down a crowded street, thugs can run off with your purse, they can't exactly grab your boobs and run, now can they?" Christopher asks, "how many objects do you have?" zarf tries to think of the equivalent, but can't get larger than a coin purse. Caoif says (to miser), "Well, sherbert's suggested an interesting alternative..." Misericordius says (to Christopher), "Not at all ... the lid is up at the top, nearer to the collar bone ... the exposed portion." Christopher says (to sherb), "uh, they could if they tried hard enough" You say (to sherbert), "they can tweak and run, I suppose." Christopher gives better joke prize to inky. Ellison says (to sherbert), "I don't know what kind of sheltered life you've led, but..." Ivan says (to Sherbert), "One word: nipguns." (From inky) Ellison says "I went home with a beautiful woman and woke up in a bed of ice and my BREASTS were stolen" Caoif smiles. Ivan laughs. You say (to Ivan), "that rocks." Ellison gives better joke prize to inky. You are carrying left a small golden bell slim wand test object locator beacon elegant top hat mike's address placeholder other test kit remind adam to look up that horse thing Misericordius says, "I think the other advantage is, the thugs can be charged with robbery AND sexual assault." Caoif nods. Christopher says, "yeah, but if most people had them" sherbert laughs Christopher says, "but not all" Ivan says (to Miser), "But in cord, exhibit A will have to be placed on the table. THAT'll be embarrassing." Christopher says, "then it would get messy if someone tried to rob a titterware non-user" Ivan says, "cord = court" Christopher says, "but anyway." (From Ellison) Defense Attorney argues, "But yes, how can we not be certain that Miss Smith didn't WANT her breasts to be fondled and stolen?" zarf says, "Or vice versa." Ivan exclaims, "She was wearing provocative designer lids! She wanted it!" (From sherbert) Thug exclaims, "GIVE ALL YOUR WALLETS, JEWELRY AND BOOBS!" Caoif laughs out loud. Misericordius laughs inky's connect field is someone's soon to learn a very important message about me having waffles and pie (From Ivan) Mr. T says, "AND GIMME DEM TASTY BALLS, WHILE YOU'RE AT IT!" Field set. Ellison imagines the new media slogan- "'No, don't steal my breasts!' means 'No, don't steal my breasts!'" You say, "ok" You say, "The Club" Ivan says, "Sorry. Off-topic, I know, but that Mr. T balls site cracked me up." You say, "for breasts." Christopher exclaims (to inky), "hee hee!" Ivan exclaims (to inky), "Now, in designer colors!" Misericordius says, "'The chief advantage of being a man ... is in having pockets' - Lewis Carroll" Ellison says (to Ivan), "hehe, Mr. T is so funny" sherbert says, "The new wave would show a down trend in date rape, and a rise in date ransacking."

Would this end up in giving the girl a complex if all she an carry is her credit card?" Ellison says, "but it very well could be a thread! I'm going to pose it as a simple question to Mr. BVE..." ---- Recall end ---- Ivan asks, "The real question is: how can we work Titterware into a game?" Ellison asks (to Caoif), "how would YOU feel?" (From inky) BVE says "look, I think that you're constraining breasts too much. you have to keep the reader interested, or they'll just DESTROY THE BREASTS" Ivan laughs. DorianX asks, "Okay. what causes the pointer error?" Ellison asks (to Ivan), "create a game company: Titterwarefire Inc.?" Ivan asks (to DorianX), "Lack of breasts?" Misericordius says, "Just imagine the jocks' locker room talk ... 'not only can you score, you can get stuff as well....'" Christopher says (to dx), "this is sort of an imponderable question." zarf says, "Titfire." Caoif says (to Ellison), "Hmm...about what? Well, I think this is a pretty offbeat idea..." Ivan says, "What zarf said." Christopher says, "pointer errors occur for many reasons." zarf says, "'I got to third base and $17.50." Ivan laughs. Ellison says (to zarf), "hehe" sherbert says, "Dude, I heard cynthia once lost her cat, and they found him dead a week later in the back of her titterware." Ivan says, "Eeewww." Christopher tries to think of a funny reason why pointer errors occur but can't think of one. Ivan asks, "You could put food in titterware. But what if you forgot to take it out?" DorianX says, "what I can tell thus far is this: if the properties start anywhere after 2fbe, it crashes" Ivan imagines the whole gamut of mouldy refridgerator jokes translated to Titterware. Christopher says, "well, speaking as someone who has only coded < 100k pron in Inform, I have no clue." You say, "you'd be wacky to try and keep food in your breasts" You say, "it would be too warm and stuff" zarf asks (to dx), "Have you tried MaxZip/JZip opcode-error checking?" (From Ivan) Slovenly girl says, "Eeew! I haven't cleaned my Titterware out in a month, and there's something green and growing in there!" You say, "you could keep your coffee hot though" DorianX asks, "jzip has it?" Christopher says, "that would be a bad idea" sherbert says, "And you would also have to market Titterware cleaning kits. You can't exaclty remove them and stick the in the washing machine." Misericordius says, "Son ... before you get married, make sure she's the kind of girl who cleans out her titterware regularly...." Caoif says (to sherbert), "Well, I say only non-perishable items should be stored in Titterware..." Ivan says, "Ok. I've just gone too far. I apologize." Christopher says, "starbucks coffee is damn hot" zarf says (to inky), "You could keep food cold. If you were a witch." Ivan exclaims (to Miser), "Yes!" You say (to zarf), "hee" Ivan says, "Heh." You say, "on hot days you could put ice in there" sherbert says (to Caoif), "right, but you can't expect the general public to be that smart" You say, "that would feel weird" You ask, "in fact, wouldn't breast implants feel weird?" Ivan says, "You could smuggle drugs in them." Ellison asks, "and someone already made the titterware burping jokes, right?" Christopher says, "I guess that would be roughly equivalent to putting ice in your buttock region." Ivan says, "Or store snowballs for sneaking into Latin class." zarf says (to ell), "No, and I wish you hadn't..." Caoif says (to ivan), "SDadly, Titterware, like all other technologies, can be abused..." Ellison exclaims (to Caoif), "internet porn can't be abused!" Ivan says (to Caoif), "Then call the Titterware Abuse Hotline." Caoif smiles. zarf says, "One of my friends tried hard to come up with the female equivalent of "brass balls". After much thought, she settled on "tits of iron"." Christopher asks, "brass balls?" Christopher tries to think of the version he's heard. Ivan says (to zarf), "Titanium ovaries." Ellison asks (to Chrisopher), "'testes of titanium-steel alloy'?" zarf says, "Ovaries are too reclusive." Christopher can't remember. ohwell. Ivan says (to zarf), "Hmm. True." zarf says, "With tits of iron, you know that nobody will ever get your tits in a wringer." sherbert says, "Nipples of plexi-glass" Ivan says, "Heh." sherbert says (to zarf), "only one problem... rust." Ivan exclaims (to sherbert), "That's right! Transparent Titterware!" zarf exclaims, "Aiiggh!" Caoif says, "Well, what sherbert's suggesting is special breasts that look like ordinary boobs, but actually open for storing stuff in..." Misericordius has disconnected. [Misericordius] Misericordius has disconnected from ifMUD. Misericordius has connected. [Misericordius] Misericordius has connected to ifMUD. Ivan says (to shebert), "It'd be like the Visible Woman model." Ivan says, "Miser had enough." zarf says, "Well, I'm all breathless now... admittedly from the concentrated ginger. Goodnight." Ivan waves! You say, "mmhmm" You say, "night Z" Christopher waves. sherbert waves Caoif waves! Misericordius never has enough. Ivan exclaims, "Enough tit jokes for Miser and zarf!" Ellison says, "and to think that we'd NEVER had thought of titterware if it weren't for sherbert..." zarf says, "That too." Misericordius is greedy Ellison exclaims (to zarf), "bye!" zarf walks off through the wall; pale green light flares briefly around him. [zarf] Zarf has disconnected from ifMUD. Caoif smiles. sherbert says (to Ellison), "I need to save all this titterware stuff." Ivan drags the collective mind of ifMUD through the gutter. Misericordius curses EMM386 ... had to reboot.... You say, "i have it all logged" You say, "i think." Ivan asks, "Anybody care to talk about games?"
