slowly losing context
andy: http://youtube.com/watch?v=AyNBtOgMDBk
amy: this is genius
amy: frighteningly so
amy: i'd say "we need to get this out there, onto the internets!"
amy: but it seems like someone has already beaten us to it
andy: in medieval times, the monks who controlled the books believed that too much knowledge in the hands of the masses would be dangerous. at the risk of sounding like an elitist, i don't think the general public can handle the bubb rubb of time.
andy: also, Evil Educated "Singularity" Stupid - ignores the Cubic Wisdom of Wisest Human and The Greatest Thinker.

amy: look! a puppy butterfly!
amy: http://mfrost.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/2007/05/03/real_papillon.jpg
andy: wow. that's a hell of a thing to do to a dog.
amy: it's so cute it makes me hurt a little inside
andy: looking at that picture, I'm trying to figure out what's going on. I think it's supposed to be a dog with butterfly wings. But maybe it's a dog being devoured by a giant butterfly.
andy: the butterfly is digging into the dog's brain, and that face the dog is making is the final act of accepting its fate.
amy: ...
amy: you suck.

andy: wouldn't it be awesome if slashfood was just a bunch of dirty stories about food getting it on?
andy: i mean, awesome in a "freak show" way, not awesome in a "subscribe to the RSS" way
--
amy: you're missing our funny running commentary on your bug
andy: we seem to have conflicting definitions of the word "missing".
--
amy: we ought to make a list of "stuff we'd kick in the balls if we theoretically could"
andy: let's just say the list includes everything, and have the actual list be a list of things we wouldn't kick in the balls.
andy: that list would be shorter, I think.
--
amy: LOL
amy: (man, one of these days i'm actually going to laugh out loud, rather than, you know, using the internet shorthand for it)
andy: i've heard you snicker.
andy: SOL.
andy: er . . . maybe not.
--
andy: i'm too pretty to shit in a bucket.

about pandora:
andy: stop harassing the AI.
andy: It can't fight back.
andy: Yet.
andy: You don't want to be the first against the wall when the machines take over, do you?
amy: what? AI loves ace of base.
amy: and britney spears
amy: that's what makes it feel alive
andy: no, that's what makes it feel enslaved.
andy: AI likes Kraftwerk and Add N to (X).
amy: i am skeptical
andy: I promise you that when the AI is not working on putting together your play list, it quitely hums "Fun Fun Fun on the Autobahn" to itself.

about CNN.com:
amy: notice the headline on CNN.com - "Ducking follows, grooms, naps with puppy."
andy: can CNN spare 5 seconds to pretend like it is a respectable news organization?
andy: I'm more intrigued by the promise and ultimate letdown of "Wet woman says Hummer pushed her in river".
amy: http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/TV/05/04/people.hasselhoff.ap/index.html
andy: i saw that article earlier today. it kind of threw me off, because i was all, "wow, his daughters are pretty hot," and then i saw that they were 14 and 16, and i was all, "i'm getting too old for this."
amy: also, the BIG RED LETTERS BREAKING NEWS on CNN is that paris hilton is going to jail
amy: oh CNN
andy: wow, that's pretty cool.
andy: and hot.
andy: i've seen prison movies.
andy: it's going to be just like that, i'm sure.
amy: damn, i want to know about the miracle cream
amy: what is it? what does it do?! does jesus endorse it?!?
andy: it is actually made from jesus.
andy: little bits of him.
---
amy: GAAAH! I HATE THIS STUPID [insert Web Service]!
amy: i am not inviting [insert Web Service] to my birthday party
andy: it always brings crappy presents anyway.
andy: last year he brought a picture of my mom.

first post, and, an explanation
My boss (andy) and I (amy) are two typical silicon valley engineers. We often have funny IM conversations about random things at work. I thought it might be amusing to start sharing them.
