Featured Logs: omega
< Back to IRC2018 Foreword:
I can honestly say, with 19 years of retrospect, that this was the most fun I ever had as a participant of #Deep13. It's a shame, because I personally had no role in any of the truly hilarious parts of this log, though I did play my own part in antagonizing this poor 11 year-old kid who just happened to stumble upon a group of bored teenagers who weren't that much older. Parts of it still make me laugh - and adding the additional conversation with TGoodchild is the perfect counter-balance to the preceding idiocy, given that he was probably the smartest person in the room despite his lack of understanding of why that entire exchange was so delightful.
Regarding omega, I have learned that he has since become a successful developer/engineer/something-or-other who has worked with some prominent internet companies, and has even relocated to the United States from his native homeland of Romania. Obviously, I would like to withhold his identity for the purposes of protecting him from the truly vengeful mooks of this world. However, if he stumbles upon this log, I just want him to know that all of this was merely for bored fun, and I truly hold no ill feelings for him, and hope he can forgive us for our own behavior and the ridiculous characterization of his person.
2004 "Secret Files of #Deep13" Foreword:
It's difficult to pinpoint the exact turning point for when #Deep13 became the storied channel it is today. Well, then again, maybe not. In fact, simply go back to Thursday, July 29th, 1999, and you'll find the answer. This date is significant for many reasons. For one, it's the second in a duo of succesful PEZings by former #Deep13 regulars BobIshmael and DarkonZero. But second, and most important, it introduces us to an 11-year-old Romanian named omega. This moment in time effectively begins the dark days of the StarLink era that would lead to us migrating from the server and ultimately being banished from it for good. It began the infamous period of constant newbie-bashing and transformed #Deep13 from a simple MST 3K chatroom into a nomadic band of misfits. Sounds cool, huh? No wonder it's a hay-load of fun to be associated with us. Okay, we've actually toned down our attitudes since then... but here's a historical look at how we were when we didn't care much about people who weren't us, and when we had a lot of fun in doing so.
Special thanks go to DarkonZero for certain portions of the log.

<BobIshmael> Eh.
<BobIshmael> I thought it was alright.

<CallipyG> i'm not lording my programming mastery over anyone.

<Sentroid99> Yup. Mars knows best
<CallipyG> oh, he's gone
<TGoodchild> Wow, you just kind of exiled omega, eh?
<Sentroid99> Anyways, who's he to come into our room and complain about us?
<Sentroid99> There's a thing called leaving.
<TGoodchild> I think he was just confused about the whole PEZ deal. So am I, now that I mention it...
<BobIshmael> He was.
<Sentroid99> no, I just wanted him kicked so he wouldn't come back for awhile
<BobIshmael> But, he was stupid or he was a kid, so he deserved it.
<MSTManos> He's not gonna come back with that PEZ, is he?
<Sentroid99> note that I unbanned him right after that
<Sentroid99> I hope he does
<TGoodchild> So, anyway, two questions.
<MSTManos> Confused?
<Sentroid99> omega on @#omega @#A.F.L #BAM
<MSTManos> Hell, he was stupified!
<BobIshmael> That's why I didn't kick him (that often) and rambled on about PEZ.

<TGoodchild> 1. How do you get pez in IRC?
<omega> ok
<omega> nop i don't get pez in irc
<BobIshmael> omega, will you just check your computer?
<Sentroid99> well you should try. It's pretty easy.
<BobIshmael> That way you can see you took it (even if by accident).
<omega> how and what to search
<MSTManos> How? What?
<Sentroid99> for Bob's PEZ!
<BobIshmael> What sort of computer do you have?
<MSTManos> Shees!
<omega> pc
<MSTManos> +h
<Sentroid99> a Compac?
<omega> ?
<BobIshmael> IBM? What brand of computer?
<TGoodchild> 2. Is all this uncontrolled scrolling on my screen caused by being kicked, or what?
<Sentroid99> I bet he's got a Compaq Presario, or some other brand.
<MSTManos> IBM? Mac? Linux Red Hat? Unix?
<Sentroid99> Compaq?
<omega> i have linux

<BobIshmael> Is there a small fan on the back of your computer?
<omega> let me check
<TGoodchild> Okay, well, I signed on to chat, not to watch lame-ass pranks. Adios.
*** TGoodchild has quit IRC (TGoodchild)
<Sentroid99> is there a plug coming out of the back?
<BobIshmael> What is TGood talking about? I think he's high.
<Sentroid99> Or is it flat, with two knobs? And do you have to shake it to make the picture more clear?
<BobIshmael> He needs to stop abusing drugs.
<CallipyG> TGoodchild is an asshole.
<omega> nop
<BobIshmael> No fan?
<omega> what fan
<BobIshmael> On the back of your computer.
<omega> yes
<omega> on the back of the comp'
<DarkonZero> Yes....
<BobIshmael> Behind that fan is your ASB PCP Bus...
<BobIshmael> If you did take our PEZ, there will be two plasma lines on it.

<TGoodchild> An entire war over a minor reference to PEZ..
<omega3> Hey Prom.
<Prometheus> Hi, everyone
<TGoodchild> Am I being ignored?
<omuga> hehe... Prom walked in at such a quirky time
<omuga> No, Goodchild... you're just being cynical
<TGoodchild> Actually I'm mainly being confused.
<omega2> Gotta go, folks. Lemme know what happens.
<omyga> k, c-ya
<omega3> Bye!
<Prometheus> See ya

<O-mega> Uh huh.
<omega_> yeah, you do that, omega
<omuga> WE WON'T, OMEGA
After the madness of the PEZing had ended, the channel's remaining regulars, after what would ultimately be considered the most important night in the history of the channel—though it wasn't evident at the time—explained their actions to a newcoming visitor named TGoodchild while expounding on the meaning of life. Or something.
<TGoodchild> *sigh*
<TGoodchild> See, I just sign on to IRC to *talk* - am I missing the point?
<DarkonZero> T.....IRC is not just for talk.
<TGoodchild> I see that - but stuff like what just happened just irritates me.
<CallipyG> DZ couldnt have said it better
<CallipyG> Don't be one-dimensional
<CallipyG> Have fun!
<TGoodchild> Well, see, when stuff like that happens... I don't know what's going on..
<TGoodchild> I get lost.
<CallipyG> T, we were lost too
<CallipyG> do you think we all knew who each other were?
<CallipyG> [that sentence coulda been better phrased, undoubtedly]
<TGoodchild> No, no, I mean spending a half an hour playing tricks on omega...
<TGoodchild> I lose sight of the point.
*** Lunanick has joined #Deep13
<CallipyG> Some stuff in life doesn't have a point... you do it just for the hell of it
<Sentroid99> hello there, Lunanick
<Lunanick> Life has no point.
<DarkonZero> And neither do we.
<Lunanick> You just do it for the hell of it.
<CallipyG> thats something i wish my dad would learn
<Sentroid99> Locdog?
<TGoodchild> Let me rephrase... I don't particularly enjoy it - I get bored and frustrated.
<CallipyG> Yeah, Lunanick, but some things in life have a point
<Lunanick> Like what.
<CallipyG> others don't
<Sentroid99> Everything happens for a reason. Like I'm getting fired from Drug Fair so I can get that vacation I wanted.
<TGoodchild> I'd rather talk than mock strangers, see.
<DarkonZero> We talk......just we do it differently.
<CallipyG> i go to work every day, Lunanick, so i can make money
<CallipyG> going to work has a point
<CallipyG> it may suck, but it has a point
<DarkonZero> Yes....going to work has a point.
<TGoodchild> Maybe I'm just jealous because the focus of the conversation got snatched away from me...
<CallipyG> uh, T, i dont think there WAS a focus
<DarkonZero> Jealous....what is there to be jealous of?
<Lunanick> Hello?
<DarkonZero> We neever focus...unless we want to.
<CallipyG> Hello.
<TGoodchild> Well, see, before, people were actually responding when I talked... I like that... keeps me interested.
<DarkonZero> We are interested in only weirdness....
<DarkonZero> Some of the time.
<CallipyG> Chaos.
<DarkonZero> And fun....
<CallipyG> Chaos is fun.
<CallipyG> Order is not fun.
<DarkonZero> Chaos...and fun....go hand in hand.
*** CallipyG changes topic to '<DarkonZero> Chaos...and fun....go hand in hand.'
<TGoodchild> Well, I'm an architect... I have a perverse fascination with order (and Lauren Bacall)
<DarkonZero> Architecture it has too muh order.
<DarkonZero> muh to much
*** Lunanick has quit IRC (Read error to Lunanick[sdn-ar-001idboisP066.dialsprint.net]: Connection reset by peer)
<TGoodchild> hey, hey... I don't bad-mouth your life's work, do I?
<CallipyG> its not bad-mouthing, T, its his opinion
<DarkonZero> No......but there is order, and ther is chaos.....you gotta face both.
<DarkonZero> ther to there
<DarkonZero> See....this is chaos.....
<TGoodchild> Well, duh. Architecture is about shaping the environment to human needs - and humans are the most chaotic force in the universe...
<DarkonZero> And this is talk.....and you said there was no talk.
<CallipyG> that's why it has so much order
<TGoodchild> No, I said I prefered talk.
<CallipyG> i hope you realize that, being an architect and all
<DarkonZero> We are fans of a funny (and chaotic) show.
<DarkonZero> That's why we are the way we are.
<CallipyG> T, are you a Republican?
<TGoodchild> Tough question.
<TGoodchild> I'm a registered Democrat, a knee-jerk Libertarian, an optimistic anarchist, and a fan of Ayn Rand.
<TGoodchild> Got that?
<DarkonZero> That we do.....
<CallipyG> knee-jerk Libertarian?
*** Sentroid99 has quit IRC (Ping timeout for Sentroid99[cc434209-a.avnl1.nj.home.com])
<TGoodchild> Yeah, my first impulse is "Why do we need a government to do *whatever*"
<CallipyG> that's a good first impulse. A good second and third impulse too, i might add.
<DarkonZero> Mine is.....why as there ever a government.
<DarkonZero> as to was
<DarkonZero> I lose a bunch of letters, hehe.
<TGoodchild> Anyway, all I was trying to say was that I don't see the humor in screwing with omega.
<TGoodchild> Didn't need to bring chaos and order and whatnot into it.
<DarkonZero> Well....we always mess with someone.
<CallipyG> No, I didn't, but what the hell?
<DarkonZero> not all the time......just who we think deserves it.
<DarkonZero> Well.....me and Bob.....that pretty much sums it up.
<CallipyG> did you happen to grasp omega's probable mental capabilities, T?
<TGoodchild> So he was slow... at least he seemed slow in IRC.
<TGoodchild> I was slow when I started doing this... hell, I still am.
<CallipyG> yeah, well that's where the "probable" comes into play.
<TGoodchild> See, I identified with omega a bit.
<CallipyG> Yes, but you don't have an ego about you
<DarkonZero> Actually omega has knowledge of IRC.......
<TGoodchild> Oh, you'd be surprised, Callipy...
<DarkonZero> Though he was poor at it.
<CallipyG> It hasn't shown, T, or else you'd be "exiled" along with him
<TGoodchild> Well, besides, omega's problem wasn't ego, it was simple manners.
<TGoodchild> Ego is a good thing (most of the time)
<CallipyG> No, if you go deeper, it was his ego that was the problem.
<CallipyG> To a certain extent, it is.
<TGoodchild> Anyway... debating psychology through a computer is dangerous...
<TGoodchild> It's getting on towards 2 AM in Roswell... think I may call it a night.
<CallipyG> all righty then
<DarkonZero> Have a good night.
<CallipyG> it's been fun... we don't get many truly intelligent people passing through here much.
<TGoodchild> adios, all!
