02:52:55 MidJag: I'm trying to summon the energy to work on a grant.
02:53:44 syv: Grants seem like something a mad scientist would have trouble with
02:54:13 syv: "Why must I *explain* my genius to these simpletons?! It is intuitively grand! Can't they see it?!"
02:54:22 MidJag: Yes, the ethics commmitiee does somewhat frown on cackling while lighitng strikes in the backgorund.
03:06:58 MidJag: I even no longer feel sick.
03:07:26 syv: I don't have anything against Trigun, but right this moment I am petting a purring kitty who has placed himself upon my lap
03:07:40 syv: It is a trying situation, you understand
03:12:12 syv: I push him off and the greedy little bastard hops right back on
03:16:57 syv: He consistently greets me every morning
03:17:02 MidJag: What's that one a refrence to?
03:17:32 syv: AoTTG. The most basic speed race in the game, that unlike all the others comes as a default map.
03:17:46 syv: It's entirely made from white blocks, and Akina is white
03:18:03 syv: Ironically it is just about my least favorite, but I like how the name sounds
03:19:12 Devastator: Don't you have like 18 cats?
03:19:20 syv: The 60$ billion dollar man
03:20:13 MidJag:
syv just has several cats clinging to him at any one time
03:20:21 Devastator:
syv is six cats in a trenchcoat.
03:20:26 syv: We recently gained a hinny though
03:20:47 Devastator: I know what those are, so don't say it.
03:20:57 Devastator: half horse half female donkey?
03:21:10 MidJag: Isn't that just a mule?
03:21:31 MidJag: Are hinnys also sterile>?
03:21:47 Devastator: Usually but not quite universally.
03:21:53 syv: Her name is Oreo and she is adorable
03:22:35 sy has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:24:05 MidJag: Florida is too damn flat
03:24:40 syv: One more, I just can't find it
03:27:01 MidJag: Alabama has ruined my ability to be comftroable with flatness.
03:27:18 syv: Something something girlfriend
03:27:29 sy has quit [Quit: Thanks, Musk. -.-]
03:27:49 MidJag: Does explain a lot I suppose
03:29:13 MidJag: Lemme get a beer first, I'll be right bac
03:30:26 syv: I could jump in the middle though
03:30:55 Devastator: I don't know, the first eps were really good.
03:30:58 Devastator: so lets just start over.
03:32:00 MidJag: This is such a good intro
03:32:34 MidJag: Oh I just realized since I'm moving to Ohoi I get my dads duster. Hel yes.
03:33:07 Devastator: As you can see, guns are heavily featured.
03:33:21 syv: Rhus is from the same era as Mellowlink, isn't it?
03:33:23 syv: Why is it called trigun if he has a six shooter
03:33:35 Devastator: I think Mellowlink was earlier.
03:34:59 Devastator: Arity Mellowlink, main character of an extremely 80's anime whose name escapes me at the moment.
03:35:04 Devastator: I think just
syv and I watched it.
03:35:20 MidJag: God this is such nice animations
03:35:41 MidJag: It's a Japenese western
03:36:03 MidJag: It's the mirror image of Samurai jack
03:38:22 syv: I suspect he would like this
03:38:46 MidJag: Yeah this does seem like an
ER show
03:41:04 Devastator: ..Yeah, I think
ER would like this.
03:41:15 MidJag: I love this mans responses
03:41:24 MidJag: Just at peace with who he is
03:41:48 syv: Quite hesitant with the murder
03:42:00 Devastator: Well, he's outta bullets.
03:42:13 Devastator: and I have a working theory that Vash the Stampede is immune to natural weapons.
03:42:44 Devastator: Not quite, but something like that.
03:43:01 Devastator: I do know this is in space.
03:43:14 MidJag: What do you mean by in space?
03:44:21 Devastator: I will forever not be amused by everyone always calling him "Vash the Stampede" instead of just Vash.
03:44:44 MidJag: The full name is pretty fun
03:44:55 MidJag: I would use it as much as possibe
03:46:34 syv: Well that's an interesting idea
03:46:51 MidJag: These weapons are a weird combinatoin of old timey western and like supemodern
03:47:17 Devastator: ..He does that repeatedly.
03:47:17 MidJag: I mean the mans keeping pace with horses
03:47:24 Devastator: ..I think he just is immune to ropes.
03:47:27 MidJag: He probably just decided to stop being untied
03:47:38 syv: Do ropes count as natural weapons?
03:48:15 MidJag: Vash has many skills, but his donut skills are somewhat legendary
03:48:34 Devastator: apparently the mounts are called Thomases.
03:50:47 Devastator: So what is up with the fliprifle thingy?
03:50:53 Devastator: I mean, it's imaginary, but..
03:51:09 MidJag: It's perfectly balanced, as all things should be
03:52:12 MidJag: I dunno why but I like settings with ambiguous tech levels, like that.
03:52:23 MidJag: Like this or batman the animated series
03:53:16 MidJag: They are the funnniest goddamn thing
03:53:30 Devastator: Yeah, I'm with
syv.
03:53:58 MidJag: I dunno why, vashes reaction to everything being inocherent screaming is to be me amazing
03:56:03 MidJag: Man this show is awesome
03:57:11 MidJag: Man I need to figure out how to resize this IRC client
03:57:47 MidJag: Like I want it to just squish the text verticaly but it won't
03:57:59 syv: He looks vastly more awesome in the opening
03:58:01 MidJag: So instead I can only see half of everything while watching show
03:58:15 MidJag: Isn't that all anime protags?
03:58:50 Devastator: I suspect they're holding back the awesomness.
03:59:04 Devastator: like he hasn't shot that revolver yet.
03:59:06 syv: Mellowlink's OP was quite honest too
03:59:23 syv: I fear it will be a meme and he never fires i5
03:59:34 Devastator: ..No, I dont' think so.
03:59:37 Devastator: I think he'll shoot it.
03:59:46 MidJag: Nah there's enough set up it'll get fired
04:00:03 MidJag: Man that kid is pysched about bad times
04:01:27 MidJag: Meryl is a very good baker apperntly
04:01:37 Devastator: I think they're commercial donuts.
04:01:45 syv: Bodyguard with the special power to make everyone around him get shot instead
04:02:08 Devastator: the special power to cause massive property damage.
04:04:16 Devastator: yes totally not going to end badly.
04:04:22 MidJag: That dude is quite short.
04:04:44 MidJag: Hey gorging on donughts like a starved hog is a preffectly normal thing to do
04:05:36 Devastator: Oh, she thinks Real Vash will show up.
04:06:01 MidJag: Soup in animation always looks quite good
04:09:18 syv: Man with the mind of a fifteen year old
04:09:18 syv has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
04:09:39 MidJag: I wonder if any charecter with that kind of mustache in the past 80 years has not been the bad guy
04:09:57 Devastator: clearly not wasteful.
04:11:04 MidJag: Vash is really quite oblivious
04:11:23 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:12:35 MidJag: If tall girl is anything like me then she definetly was not paying attention :P
04:13:31 syv: She is definitely like you
04:14:06 Devastator: you know what it means when the serious music starts.
04:14:39 MidJag: Red leather is a very popular color in the desert apperently
04:14:59 Devastator: although maybe the thomases produce red leather.
04:15:03 MidJag: I guess it pairs well with the blond
04:15:43 MidJag: ...I wonder if Vashes clothing is part of him. Like have we seen him take it off ever?
04:15:56 Devastator: That arm doesn't seem right.
04:16:26 MidJag: Maybe it's a daemon arm and that's how he blocks bullets
04:17:03 Devastator: "I'm Vash the stampede, duh."
04:18:13 Devastator: "Well, other than the ones that got washed out."
04:18:29 syv: Is this developing into a harem anime?
04:18:39 Devastator: No, I think it's just the two girls.
04:18:40 syv: I see one bishie hero, and three women
04:18:57 Devastator: It's just the two who stick around.
04:19:11 Devastator: Is it a harem if there's two?
04:19:12 MidJag: Nah, Vash is just tall, nigh immortal, and likes to flirt.
04:19:39 Devastator: And I think the next character who does stick around is a guy.
04:20:25 MidJag: I suppose that doesn't nessicarly rule out a harem
04:20:35 MidJag: Just makes it far less likely
04:20:52 syv: Nah plenty of harems have the one male friend
04:21:27 Devastator: No, don't think so.
04:23:23 MidJag: So apperenlty the glasses glowing thing is such an old trope Orwell did it
04:23:49 MidJag: and I guess it was more common in real life befoere they figured out how to make lenes better
04:24:09 Devastator: there are anti-glare coatings nowdays, yes.
04:24:17 Devastator: and yeah, I had to live with the full on coke bottles.
04:25:58 Devastator: Those were their drink orders from the first episode.
04:26:06 syv: Why do they call them double dollars?
04:26:36 MidJag: Yeah tall girl seems to have it figured out
04:26:55 MidJag: Also getting something right by blind luck is pretty on brand
04:27:17 Devastator: Nah, not that dumb luck. One of the three people in the first episodes was Vash, and it isn't the other two.
04:27:28 Devastator: and calling him Vash and seeing how he responds is as good a method as any.
04:28:52 Devastator: and he's got bullets!
04:29:33 Devastator: he was looking at his fingernails there.
04:29:34 MidJag: Wild turkey is an actual brand
04:29:45 Devastator: Yeah, I know. Just looking at the bottles.
04:30:06 MidJag: Ah, wasn't sure if it had any market presence in Canada
04:30:18 Devastator: I don't drink much, but I've heard the name.
04:30:59 MidJag: I've only had it once or twice.
04:31:27 MidJag: It's like mid range hard liqour
04:31:43 MidJag: ...one the other hand my defentiion of mid range liqour is most peoples cheap lioqurs :P
04:32:00 Devastator: ..what is cheap liquor in the alabama student market?
04:32:20 Devastator: also that's an odd metal thing.
04:32:54 MidJag: Smirnoff rum, and when you say I didn't know smirnoff made rum there is a raeasson for that
04:33:19 Devastator: god, russian sugar liquor. Yeah, I can imagine.
04:33:48 Devastator: It's not even his tie!
04:33:52 Devastator: does it just materialize when he drinks?
04:34:01 MidJag: Perhaps his body manifests it
04:34:10 Devastator: Clearly, Vash is a magical girl, then.
04:35:06 syv: He brought his crazy straw
04:37:08 Devastator: Always the full name, gah.
04:38:55 Devastator: also "Nah, just made it up" is something you should hear more often.
04:39:10 Devastator: "Could be true, and you know that."
04:39:17 MidJag: I'm trying to think off what's the worst liqour I've ever had
04:39:54 Devastator: Hey,
syv, can you really do that?
04:39:57 Devastator: stop a revolver that way?
04:40:18 MidJag: Oh probaly that plastic bottle gin, that didn't have a label.
04:40:40 Devastator: pretty good to win a gunfight with no gun.
04:41:47 syv: Uhh, the hammer wasn't already cocked
04:42:10 syv: So actually yes I think so, because the cylinder would have to rotate as he pulled back.
04:42:29 syv: But not if it were already cocked
04:42:57 syv: Would be hard though, big mechanical disadvantage
04:43:49 MidJag: So wait since the dude had to fix his gun, and before it was 3 inecehs off from 10 yards how did vash hit anything before?
04:44:05 Devastator: Maybe he threw it at someone or somethjing.
04:44:09 syv: Have you noticed how he hasn't shot it?
04:44:26 Devastator: and yeah, maybe he doesn't shoot it because it might miss.
04:44:29 MidJag: Should have said, I wasn't sure what the hell he did to it :P
04:45:04 MidJag: Also no one finds it weird that vash can keep up with the setting eqilvalent of horses
04:45:19 MidJag: I think your right
dev, I think he is shaving.
04:46:14 syv: I googled it, and yeah, it's actually easy to stop a revolver like that
04:46:58 syv: Supposedly isn't actually even that hard either
04:47:32 Devastator: 4? I think that's the last one we saw,
MJ.
04:48:41 MidJag: This is a very efficent intro
04:48:57 MidJag: You've got a decent idea of the personalities in evne if you know nothing about the show
04:49:27 MidJag: Oh huh, mad house made this?
04:49:41 MidJag: I think they made that gun head anime that we watched
dev
04:50:03 syv: And the tsundere/derp girl don't really come off that way
04:50:19 MidJag: I dunno, tsundere is serious and overworked and derp gri lsi derp
04:51:22 MidJag: Man, its like when I go to bar with my brothers.
04:52:25 MidJag: Typically it involves random people approaching and and getting stuck in weird conversations or situations while I enjoy myself until one of my brotehrs drags me away.
04:52:40 Devastator: been held at gunpoint before?
04:53:08 MidJag: Nope, though there was a dive bar that was lets just go with very tense.
04:53:29 MidJag: To the point that even I noticed it :P
04:53:49 Devastator: "What a brainless moron."
04:54:29 MidJag: You can tell it's an anime because the main charecter has a wlaknman :P
04:56:43 MidJag: Heh, oh yeah, I guess I forgot is a line I once saw applied when one of the guys was hanging out with some of girls who're always around and said man it's nice to hnot have any girls around.
04:57:10 MidJag: Yes, it was funny though.
04:57:39 MidJag: I think your immunity argument has merit
dev
04:57:39 Devastator: ..'wait, you mean it wouldn't have fired anyway?'
04:57:56 MidJag: I feel like we'll see the mercs again at some point
04:58:12 Devastator: the animators might want to draw a new batch of freaks when needed.
04:59:51 MidJag: Clint eastwood has a pretty good VA
05:00:02 Devastator: The dub VAs in general are really good.
05:00:25 MidJag: Is inconsecitve actually the right word?
05:00:36 Devastator: non-consecutive would be more normal.
05:00:44 MidJag: That's what I was thinking
05:00:53 MidJag: I knew there was a better word but I couldn't think of it
05:01:23 Devastator: also is that a steam wagon?
05:01:57 MidJag: I feel like it makes a certain amount of sense to have pretty much every item of furinture in this world be largelly bulletproof
05:02:33 MidJag: Why is that man always smokeing?
05:03:04 MidJag: Also huh,
syv am I crazy or is vash's gun built like a Rhino revolver
05:03:08 syv: There we go, we see him escape
05:04:03 MidJag: That revolve where the barrel comes from the bottom rather then the top
05:04:15 MidJag: It's some large caliber
05:04:18 syv: I was thinking of a mateba, but yes.
05:04:31 MidJag: I think rhino is just some other brand
05:05:29 Devastator: Grim Reaper Bostock is a good nickname too.
05:06:01 syv: Rhino is apparently a later development by the same designer
05:06:43 Devastator: "No, I think the huge graveyard was him burying his past." ;-p
05:06:44 MidJag: I feeel like Vash might just play dumb.
05:07:01 Devastator: yeah, I mean he's too philosophical to really be that dumb.
05:08:27 syv: A very dumb person can be moral and against violence.
05:08:49 Devastator: Yes, but can they make broad philosophical statements in the midst of it?
05:09:02 MidJag: I'm with
dev in this one
05:09:34 syv: Mmm, yeah. Quotes are easy.
05:09:57 MidJag: Heh, picking up all the derringers is pretty funnny
05:10:52 MidJag: Alright what's the bet that Vash shoots his revolver in 2 epss?
05:11:48 Devastator: in a moment, need some water.
05:12:08 MidJag: I feel like if it's not next two eps it won't be until season finale
05:12:18 syv: I want him to get that cat
05:18:19 Devastator: Apparently there's a fat surfer named Jimbo Pellegrine.
05:19:17 MidJag: I didn't know there was anyone actually named jimbo
05:19:31 Devastator: You've never met one?
05:20:20 Devastator: More of the giant lightbulbs.
05:20:32 syv: A neat little bit of trivia about the Rhino revolver is that its hammer is actually a cocking lever, and it has an internal hammer--because it fires from the bottom cylinder.
05:20:34 MidJag: Wait, the kids name is the same as the horse/ thing?
05:20:47 syv: So it can be cocked and look like an uncocked revolver
05:20:47 Devastator: that's gotta give you cred on this planet.
05:21:20 MidJag: My dads nickname in college was horse actually
05:22:19 Devastator: Maybe he -is- immune.
05:22:45 MidJag: huh, I guess vash is a good shot
05:23:06 Devastator: okay, the reputation is absolutely not for show.
05:23:37 MidJag: Vash seems like a joke charecter who becomes indescribably dangerous if he's pissed off.
05:23:52 Devastator: don't piss off Vash.
05:24:11 syv: It's his show and he's guarantee to win
05:24:24 Devastator: don't fight anyone with a show named after him.
05:24:27 syv: So if he gets upset he'll be effective.
05:24:59 MidJag: ....Aren't you an insurance agent?
05:25:21 Devastator: yeah, and it seems to be their job to reduce the rate of vash-related incidents.
05:25:46 MidJag: MAn this whole thing is just Vash avoids an entire otown
05:26:54 Devastator: do you carry anything inside that longcoat?
05:28:00 Devastator: ..they have a tactical map?
05:28:03 MidJag: honestly Vashs ability to isnpire a riot literally everywhere he goes explains a lot
05:28:16 Devastator: the bounty might be counterproductive.
05:28:25 syv: He hasn't done it in any of the previous towns
05:28:39 syv: He was just being hunted by regular bounty hunters, if even that
05:28:40 Devastator: well a town got destroyed in the first two episodes.
05:28:47 Devastator: but yeah, this one is a riot.
05:30:03 Devastator: ...so the literal godzilla threshold?
05:30:16 MidJag: Heh, well it seemed like a good idea at the time is an awesome line
05:30:30 MidJag: Applicable to so many situations over the yeas
05:30:49 MidJag: Yes, but it's so appropriate.
05:31:16 Devastator: ..actually, them needing the money to rebuild the archaeotech is a good twist.
05:33:49 MidJag: Well I guess we figured out what caused the bounty
05:34:03 Devastator: yeah, destroyed a city of a million people.
05:34:05 MidJag: Wait was I right when I said 3 eps?
05:34:16 Devastator: 2 eps if he fires it next episode.
05:34:23 Devastator: 1 if he fires it in this one.
05:34:25 MidJag: I mean about figuring him out.
05:34:55 Devastator: Wasn't much more to do on the plot front with the confusion, so time for it to end.
05:35:16 Devastator: also we have silliness and seriousness right next to each other.
05:35:49 Devastator: "Hi, let me rescue these injured people from this destroyed building while you light a giant cigar with a blowtorch."
05:37:02 MidJag: Oh hey, glasses are going on, so I guess things are getting serious :P
05:38:15 MidJag: Aww, I'm gonna be wronng about the gun
05:38:51 MidJag: That had less destructive effects then I expected
05:39:31 MidJag: I was reallly expecting like earth shattering kaboom.
05:39:50 MidJag: This show is like a less serious hellsing
05:39:53 Devastator: Sometimes the gun isn't a shonen fist.
05:40:55 MidJag: Hellsing abridged is fun. Never seen the actual show thogh
05:41:36 Devastator: ..now what are they gonna do about the archaeotech?
05:42:05 syv: You guys can continue watching, but I'm not interestes
05:42:09 MidJag: Perpahs it's addresed in next ep
05:45:50 Devastator: lets do 6, unless you feel up for Vagante?
05:47:04 MidJag: But we can do vagante if
syv's more intrested in that
05:48:39 MidJag: huh, that does explain that big glass thing in the intro
05:48:57 Devastator: the giant incandescent lightbulbs, yes.
05:50:21 Devastator: well, that's a way out.
05:51:29 Devastator: Hah, gotta be stuck following him around.
05:51:43 Devastator: Drifter has a herald.
05:51:47 MidJag: So incredibly unimpressed now
05:52:06 Devastator: "The rest of your life"
05:52:08 MidJag: Shes' more like a doomsayer
05:52:13 MidJag: She's there to keep people away
05:52:30 Devastator: nah, I think she's literally a herald. She's there to announce his presence and go in front of him.
05:52:47 Devastator: okay, now that's funny.
05:54:25 MidJag: huh, so there are cars.
05:54:38 Devastator: yeah, umbrella man had one.
05:54:54 Devastator: although the tech level is hard to place.
05:55:20 Devastator: someone mentioned being famous galaxy-wide.
05:55:34 MidJag: Hmm, that's a good point
05:55:42 Devastator: but I haven't seen any spaceships yet.
05:56:36 MidJag: God everything in this world has such long names
05:57:33 Devastator: hey, he did hide in a trash can once.
05:59:41 MidJag: ...Vash might be immune
05:59:55 MidJag: also quite possibly some form of test
06:00:45 Devastator: "Look, the building was damaged, that means Vash the Stampede was here."
06:01:36 MidJag: Heh, I feel like tall girl sometimes plays up just how dumb she is.
06:02:07 MidJag: Probably to annoy her partner~
06:02:58 Devastator: and slashy McClawhands.
06:03:16 MidJag: Huh, I'll be honest I really expected her to know slashy mcwlahhand
06:03:53 Devastator: You really do that a lot.
06:04:05 MidJag: I wish I knew how I did it.
