Botjinxing the Interwebs - Fortune [possible satire]

Su-Sheeok this is the 10th time numpy times out while downloading its stupid module - why does that NEVER happen to me with CPAN? not in a DECADE?
Botjesnakes on the network cables.
Su-Sheegreat thanks, now you jinxed it and it timed out again.
Botjehappy to oblige.
BotjeTuesdays make computers mopy.
Su-Sheesomeone beat Botje, please.
BotjeI'll take all of you on at quake 3!
rindolfSu-Shee: what are your computer's SPECs?
BinGOsMAXIMUM ARMOUR
Su-Sheerindolf: what?
Su-Sheerindolf: what kind of question is that?
rindolfSu-Shee: like P4-2.4GHZ, Core i3, Pentium 3, etc.
Su-Sheerindolf: are you kidding me? what does that have to do with timeouts while downloading a file?
rindolfSu-Shee: no idea.
rindolfSu-Shee: it shouldn't.
Su-Sheerindolf: then why are you asking such a question?
rindolfSu-Shee: maybe use a proxy.
rindolfSu-Shee: I mean a proxy on localhost or something.
Su-Sheerindolf: and what is a proxy on localhost going to proxy before I even have the file it should proxy later on? :)
Su-SheeBotje: DON'T MOVE. IT'S /(%
Su-Shee78%
rindolfSu-Shee: I mean let python use the proxy and the proxy will download it in a better way.
BotjeSu-Shee: IT'S OKAY, THE FILE WILL BE CORRUPT ANYWAY.
rindolfSu-Shee: and cache it too.
rindolfBotje: heh.
rindolfBotje: you're Evil.
rindolfBotje: will you join my Evil Reindeer Evil Conspiracy?
BotjeI managed to blow up the same CD burn process three times by touching my friend's screen.
Botjeburn burn burn *touch screen* buffer underrun.
rindolfOooh... CDs - such low tech.
rindolfCDs are so 90s.
Su-Sheerindolf: says the man who suggests installing a proxy for a single file..
BotjeIN OUR TIME WE EXCHANGED DATA BY PUTTING PITS IN CIRCULAR PLASTIC DISKS AND WE WERE HAPPY ABOUT IT!
Su-Sheerindolf: and asks how fast my computer is in 2013...
Su-SheeBotje: YOU LOST I HAVE MY FUCKING NUMPY
rindolfSu-Shee: NASA still has some VAXes.
BotjeSu-Shee: UNPACK IT FIRST. THERE IS A SURPRISE IN THERE.
rindolfBotje: heh.
rindolfBotje++
Botje(does it show that I'm really frustrated with this paper I'm reviewing?)
rindolfNo NUMPY FOR YOU. MUAHAHAH
Su-SheeBotje: on my numpy download: indeed.
Su-SheeBotje: now I'm going for scipy.. hold still and don't move.
BotjeSu-Shee: I'm spinning around in my chair. try and stop me.
Botjealanjf: too much effort to keep track of.
Su-SheeBotje: now that is easily done with a little violence.. ;)
* rindolfkills Botje so he won't move.
Botjebut but but
Botjenewton's first law!
rindolfBotje: maybe your ghost can move.
BotjeI keep spinning for a while!
Su-SheeBotje: "you can't kill Botje" isn't newton's first law.
Su-Sheeit's not even the 5th.
Su-SheeBotje: GO AWAY FROM MY WLAN.
BotjeSu-Shee: YOU MIS-SPELLED LAWN.
BotjeSu-Shee: MAYBE IF YOU STOP SHAKING YOUR CANE
Su-SheeBotje: IF I ASK MST I'M SURE HE WILL HELP ME WITH SOME CLASSIC BRITISH BOARDING SCHOOL NAVY STYLE CANE-ING..
Su-Sheedammit this python shit requires work.
tm604oh wait my irc was stuck, Su-Shee's clearly broken the internet again
Su-Sheetm604: it's python's fault. and botje's. not mine.
tm604python is correct by definition, everyone else is wrong
Su-Sheelol.. that is amazing... pip install scipy requires some library called blas - but that's not available in pip.. reading up on how to install it, I seriously find Fortran compile lines to call by hand.. WHAT THE HELL?
