	7:06pm minkwest: I think the biggest take away from the previous show is how do you fix this world of trouble were in? We seem to be in an impossible shituation and anger builds on all sides.
	7:07pm ARB: We can't fix it but we can opt out
	7:07pm StringOFperils: DADA is the only thing that comes to mind
	🧂 7:08pm solo mon: The only cure for misinformation is sarcasm.

	7:08pm ARB: Hi coel!
	7:09pm Ike: @minkwest, "shituation" is about right!
	7:09pm Niall: Ah, the Arbitrarium, my favorite new (to me) WFMU program.
	7:09pm Niall: My wallet's not so crazy about this program, though...
	7:09pm ARB: Hi Ike! Hi Niall, thank you!!
	7:09pm HyperDose: Opting-in to ARB 🤓🦠
	7:10pm ARB: Hi Hyper! yes opting in is just as crucial as opting out
	7:10pm Par Ubi 丰: Hey everyone, hi ARB!
	7:11pm StringOFperils: Opting with my third eye chakra
	7:11pm Webhamster Henry: Hi ARBitrarium fishes!
	🧂 7:11pm solo mon: Op-Arting in and out wildly.
	7:12pm coelacanth∅: not participating in opt-out culture
	7:13pm coelacanth∅: or is it opt-out couture
	7:13pm common: Ello!
	7:13pm coelacanth∅: hey common!
	7:14pm Little Danny: i just heard an excellent word
	7:14pm StringOFperils: Here in The Arbitrarium you can get your empathy roughed up while you get prostate massagers. You will feel like a new X
	7:14pm Scott67: G'day ARB & ARBssembly 🍺😎🤙🎶📻☀️🌏
	7:14pm Webhamster Henry: Rabbit, Rabbit, shmabbit, shmabbit ; it's Tiger Tiger day! OR year for that matter.
	7:14pm Niall: @ARB: There are times when I think you're just making uo these band names for a bit. #harshrealm
	🧂 7:14pm solo mon: I’m a banana head
	7:14pm Scott67: Already the 1st here🐇🐇
	7:15pm spodiodi: Claires Un Natural Twin's vocalist sounded like a person who's partially deaf (in my limited experience and humble opinion; was expecting to hear related info on mic break)
	7:15pm P-90: ok, but what did empaths do to deserve this? Did I miss something?
	7:15pm Niall: That said, a joyous and bountiful Imbolg to all of you.
	7:15pm ARB: Hi Par Ubi 丰! Hi Webhamster Henry! Hi common! Hi Scott67! Hi P-90!
	7:16pm ARB: "life's taking up all my time"
	7:16pm StringOFperils: That asteroid. That could have been any one of us.
	7:16pm Krys O.: I have a feeling that I will wake up tomorrow morning with this song in my head.
	🧂 7:16pm solo mon: Empaths: people with main character syndrome but no story to tell.
	7:17pm Andres: Hi, ARB! I begin the day with Nanu Nanu.
	7:17pm ARB: Hi Andres! Nanu Nanu to u!
	7:17pm Niall: Just when I thought Ken or whoever has plumbed the depths of deeply irritating music, I encounter Gary Allen on Arbitrarium. Holy shit. "I hate this," he laughed, listening intently.
	7:18pm Niall: @solo mon: Daaaaaaamn, right between the eyes, there.
	7:19pm StringOFperils: People have no sympathy for my empathy.
	7:19pm ARB: Spodi, interesting I hear it too but not sure the story. Her name is Claire Pannell and she also releases solo music under the name Furchick, I'll play some of her solo stuff soon!
	7:19pm Handy Haversack: Yo, spodi!
	7:20pm coelacanth∅: but most people are "empaths", just some empaths are not empathetic enough to realise this
	🧂 7:20pm solo mon: All in good fun @niall I’m only using my nerf launcher ;-)
	7:20pm spodiodi: thanks, ARB! will check into it later! looking forward to hearing more, whatever the story. aloha, Handy!
	7:21pm coelacanth∅: hey spodiodi... i didn't think of it at the time, but yeah
	7:22pm ARB: How dare you accuse me of being irritating
	🧂 7:22pm solo mon: ARB I sense you are feeling some sort of way!
	7:22pm Krys O.: If a life coach, as described by Maria Bamford, can not have succeeded at anything, then is an empath someone who fails to sense what others are feeling? Narrator: The answer is yes.
	7:23pm ultradamno: Irritaining is the proper word, after all.
	7:23pm spodiodi: solo, thank you for that last one (OLO) aloha, coelacanthØ! thanks for another confirmation i've not completely lost it
	7:23pm Handy Haversack: Riker: <adjusts uniform>
	🧂 7:23pm solo mon: LOL krys O
	🧂 7:24pm solo mon: The best in irritaintment!
	7:24pm StringOFperils: Locked inside the Arb Groan Accumulator. Unhappiness happiness vitamins enough 'til Tuesday
	7:24pm HyperDose: I am the walnuts in Solo's bread
	🧂 7:24pm solo mon: Hi spodiodi!
	7:25pm ARB: Irritaintment I'll take!
	7:25pm spodiodi: aloha, solo mon! =)
	7:25pm lazy pierogi: wowee me likey
	7:25pm ARB: OLO Stringy
	7:25pm StringOFperils: It's infograting!
	7:25pm Niall: "How dare you accuse me of being irritatingHow dare you accuse me of being irritating" - @ARB, please, don't empathize with the music! Don't sympathize, either! ;)
	🧂 7:25pm solo mon: Hi hi HyperD we are walnut bread.
	7:26pm Niall: You gotta be Ki Di Me...
	7:26pm ARB: Same singer as Inflatable Boy Clams here
	🧂 7:26pm solo mon: Irritating = inspiring in the country of ARBistan
	7:26pm HyperDose: Walnuts and bananas. It's all about finding that perfect pair.
	7:27pm spodiodi: haha, Handy
	7:27pm Little Danny: from irritation come pearls
	🧂 7:27pm solo mon: Banana born and bred.
	7:27pm Niall: Miso and sweet potatoes.
	🧂 7:28pm Aitch: why empathise when you can synthesise
	7:28pm Perogimutter: Must chime in DJ The Arbitrarium with ARB as how much I hate enjoying the show.
	7:28pm StringOFperils: I make your empath eyes
	7:28pm Feldy: Solo you have banana bread?
	7:28pm Krys O.: I thought I heard Inflatable Boy Clams!
	7:28pm coelacanth∅: spodi i would never accuse you of having not completely lost it
	🧂 7:28pm solo mon: Love algebra suicide. Great band
	7:28pm ARB: lol thanks Perogimutter
	🧂 7:28pm Aitch: Do zombies head south for the summer?
	🧂 7:29pm solo mon: coelacanthø at least we can all lose it together
	7:29pm Krys O.: Need to warm up rice noodles. All this banana talk is giving me some idears.
	🧂 7:30pm Aitch: better than oh dears
	7:30pm Feldy: Krys O, banana-ramen maybe?
	7:30pm Niall: This set's giving me a panic attack; I don't understand why, but I'm going to white-knuckle it until I do, whiplashing between bewilderment to unselfconscious joy.
	7:30pm Handy Haversack: Definitely not the first time I have clicked over to see who was making such good sounds and found it to be Algebra Suicide.
	7:30pm Krys O.: @Aitch: Zombie heads fall off and roll south for the summer.
	🧂 7:31pm Aitch: Hold those feelings and write a Niall -list
	7:31pm StringOFperils: Headin' south.
	7:31pm flannery: when ive already missed algebra suicide :'-(
	🧂 7:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Empaths shop for groceries at Empathmark.
	7:31pm Niall: Krys O: So they head- damn it, @StringOFPerils got it.
	7:31pm kev: agree with Handy
	7:31pm Andres: Why bananas as pizza topping controversial? Banana flat bread.
	7:31pm Krys O.: @Feldy: Perhaps, but I'm leaning toward adding sunflower seed butter and sesame oil with banana chips.
	7:31pm ARB: I'm not going to ease up on you all at all this hour btw
	🧂 7:32pm solo mon: Niall-list @aitch you are killing me OLOL
	7:32pm Niall: So, this is Amps for Christ.
	7:32pm StringOFperils: The safe word is Arb, but see where that gets you.
	7:32pm spodiodi: BANANA CHIPS 👀
	7:32pm Krys O.: Break off the brakes, ARB.
	7:33pm Perogimutter: OK DJ ARB now I resolutely refuse to stop listening.
	🧂 7:33pm solo mon: Irritainting and ARBrasive.
	7:33pm ARB: Hiya kev! Hi Flannery!
	7:34pm shiloh in spirit: i love being irritating
	🧂 7:34pm solo mon: I guess I’ll have another slice of me and HyperD loaf then.
	7:34pm Andres: There is an ointment for irritaints.
	7:34pm ARB: What was Flannery's quote about annoying women? that was the best.
	🧂 7:35pm solo mon: Normalize being irritating.
	7:35pm HyperDose: My cat sitting in her cardboard house with a smug look on her face is my mood for this show
	7:35pm Niall: ARBitrage: profiting off changes in relative vexation between this show and the callers and commenters from the previous one. I'm pretty sure this only works on a large scale!
	7:35pm merz.medallion: Yahoo!
	7:36pm Niall: Vexation and good will, rather.
	7:36pm StringOFperils: Normative acceptable limits of nervous vexation
	7:36pm Niall: People Like ARB.
	7:36pm Feldy: Normalize making art that is challenging yet accessible
	🧂 7:36pm solo mon: This is just (wal) nuts
	🧂 7:37pm Aitch: I like her
	7:37pm coelacanth∅: THIS IS GREAT!
	7:37pm shiloh in spirit: feeling a little silly from this one
	7:37pm merz.medallion: Nuts and stufff, nut stuff…
	7:37pm Niall: Man, Stapleton still lives in Ireland, IIRC, and I still ain't met the dude. I'll have to try harder when I go back home. Like a real weirdo.
	7:37pm flannery: im always threatening to do to the nurse with wound list what they did with the joy division waveforms n put it on some keds
	7:38pm flannery: maybe a onesie???
	7:38pm Niall: Do it, @Flannery!
	7:38pm coelacanth∅: i have a non-smoking habit, but i do deviate occasionally
	7:38pm merz.medallion: I scream, you scream, we all scream for nuts!
	7:38pm flannery: ok nurse with wound onesie premiums
	7:38pm HyperDose: If a onesie doesn't have a butt flap, is it even a onesie?
	7:38pm Little Danny: love this!!!
	7:39pm ARB: merz.medallion!
	🧂 7:39pm solo mon: ARB at least 2 people just said they liked you. Is this damaging your brand?
	🧂 7:39pm chresti: Adult size onsie?
	7:39pm Niall: I would wear my first romper for that...
	7:39pm merz.medallion: butt flaps rule
	7:39pm ARB: When You've Got Foetus On Your Breath gives us the most relaxing song of the set
	7:39pm Perogimutter: Sorry, I was reading. I heard "vagina" and "nuts" and maybe something about pockets. I really do promise to pay more attention.
	🧂 7:40pm Aitch: Foetus to treat us, this is almost sweet
	7:40pm coelacanth∅: "DRY vagina"... not as inviting.
	7:41pm merz.medallion: Bogus one armed coat-us
	🧂 7:41pm solo mon: You’ve got Foetus on my calliope
	7:41pm Niall: Love the arc Thirlwell's career has taken.
	7:41pm HyperDose: Designers, make it work! 🥩✂️
	7:41pm ARB: Are you relaxed?
	7:41pm coelacanth∅: almost sounds like "pound" by human sexual response in the background
	7:42pm yeast witch: I’m into it
	7:42pm ARB: yeast witch!!! Hi!!!
	7:42pm flannery: im so relaxed im... regressing
	🧂 7:42pm solo mon: Do they sell nuts at this circus??
	7:42pm Krys O.: My head is exploding and I like it.
	7:42pm Andres: Piece of gum?
	🧂 7:43pm solo mon: Flannery is going Benjamin Buttons on us.
	7:43pm HyperDose: Is the nursery that's next to the roadside circus engulfed in flames again?
	🧂 7:43pm Aitch: Wild fan made clip for a Foetus track I enjo, for after the show. www.youtube.com...
	7:43pm Handy Haversack: Get some for-profit-style synergy going with Jim the Poet and put the NWW list on his rabbit outfit.
	7:43pm flannery: im benjamin buttoning REALLY hard
	🧂 7:43pm solo mon: Andres - fruit or mint?
	7:43pm Krys O.: Hey, this rice noodle concoction is purty good. I added coconut and cayenne pepper for good measure.
	🧂 7:43pm chresti: A pleasant relaxed head explosion
	7:44pm ultradamno: It's interesting that somewhere in the 00s Foetus became his least interesting incarnation while Thirlwell, Steroid Maximus, Manorexia and now Xordox shined
	7:44pm HyperDose: Irri-taint-ment
	7:44pm PaulRobeson1920: Intense Hi Hi Hi all
	7:44pm Niall: I like that Xordox a lot, @ultradamno, aye
	7:44pm Andres: solo mon - Thrills

	7:46pm HyperDose: I swear she's making half of these names up
	7:46pm alan the painter: WoW, Algebra Sucide! felt it , miss Lydia!
	7:46pm P-90: forward back-announcing. I approve.
	🧂 7:46pm chresti: What is benjamin buttoning?
	7:47pm Perogimutter: hmmm, nap time, I LIKE nap time...and cold milk time too.
	7:47pm Niall: @HyperDose: Yeah! It's like watching Brass Eye or something.
	7:47pm HyperDose: @chresti It's a reference to a movie where "a man starts aging backwards with consequences"
	7:48pm StringOFperils: When Arb wakes up in the morning, these song titles are written all over the walls in ketchup
	7:48pm flannery: oh chresti, i am just regressing, just in time for nap time
	7:48pm Niall: @chresti: www.youtube.com...
	🧂 7:48pm solo mon: ARBitrarium: Story and Nap time for self diagnosed empaths.
	7:49pm Perogimutter: benjamin buttoning https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Benjamin%20Buttoning

	7:06pm minkwest: I think the biggest take away from the previous show is how do you fix this world of trouble were in? We seem to be in an impossible shituation and anger builds on all sides.
	7:07pm ARB: We can't fix it but we can opt out
	7:07pm StringOFperils: DADA is the only thing that comes to mind
	🧂 7:08pm solo mon: The only cure for misinformation is sarcasm.
	7:08pm coelacanth∅: hi ARB and ARBhorists
	7:08pm ARB: Hi coel!
	7:09pm Ike: @minkwest, "shituation" is about right!
	7:09pm Niall: Ah, the Arbitrarium, my favorite new (to me) WFMU program.
	7:09pm Niall: My wallet's not so crazy about this program, though...
	7:09pm ARB: Hi Ike! Hi Niall, thank you!!
	7:09pm HyperDose: Opting-in to ARB 🤓🦠
	7:10pm ARB: Hi Hyper! yes opting in is just as crucial as opting out
	7:10pm Par Ubi 丰: Hey everyone, hi ARB!
	7:11pm StringOFperils: Opting with my third eye chakra
	7:11pm Webhamster Henry: Hi ARBitrarium fishes!
	🧂 7:11pm solo mon: Op-Arting in and out wildly.
	7:12pm coelacanth∅: not participating in opt-out culture
	7:13pm coelacanth∅: or is it opt-out couture
	7:13pm common: Ello!
	7:13pm coelacanth∅: hey common!
	7:14pm Little Danny: i just heard an excellent word
	7:14pm StringOFperils: Here in The Arbitrarium you can get your empathy roughed up while you get prostate massagers. You will feel like a new X
	7:14pm Scott67: G'day ARB & ARBssembly 🍺😎🤙🎶📻☀️🌏
	7:14pm Webhamster Henry: Rabbit, Rabbit, shmabbit, shmabbit ; it's Tiger Tiger day! OR year for that matter.
	7:14pm Niall: @ARB: There are times when I think you're just making uo these band names for a bit. #harshrealm
	🧂 7:14pm solo mon: I’m a banana head
	7:14pm Scott67: Already the 1st here🐇🐇
	7:15pm spodiodi: Claires Un Natural Twin's vocalist sounded like a person who's partially deaf (in my limited experience and humble opinion; was expecting to hear related info on mic break)
	7:15pm P-90: ok, but what did empaths do to deserve this? Did I miss something?
	7:15pm Niall: That said, a joyous and bountiful Imbolg to all of you.
	7:15pm ARB: Hi Par Ubi 丰! Hi Webhamster Henry! Hi common! Hi Scott67! Hi P-90!
	7:16pm ARB: "life's taking up all my time"
	7:16pm StringOFperils: That asteroid. That could have been any one of us.
	7:16pm Krys O.: I have a feeling that I will wake up tomorrow morning with this song in my head.
	🧂 7:16pm solo mon: Empaths: people with main character syndrome but no story to tell.
	7:17pm Andres: Hi, ARB! I begin the day with Nanu Nanu.
	7:17pm ARB: Hi Andres! Nanu Nanu to u!
	7:17pm Niall: Just when I thought Ken or whoever has plumbed the depths of deeply irritating music, I encounter Gary Allen on Arbitrarium. Holy shit. "I hate this," he laughed, listening intently.
	7:18pm Niall: @solo mon: Daaaaaaamn, right between the eyes, there.
	7:19pm StringOFperils: People have no sympathy for my empathy.
	7:19pm ARB: Spodi, interesting I hear it too but not sure the story. Her name is Claire Pannell and she also releases solo music under the name Furchick, I'll play some of her solo stuff soon!
	7:19pm Handy Haversack: Yo, spodi!
	7:20pm coelacanth∅: but most people are "empaths", just some empaths are not empathetic enough to realise this
	🧂 7:20pm solo mon: All in good fun @niall I’m only using my nerf launcher ;-)
	7:20pm spodiodi: thanks, ARB! will check into it later! looking forward to hearing more, whatever the story. aloha, Handy!
	7:21pm coelacanth∅: hey spodiodi... i didn't think of it at the time, but yeah
	7:22pm ARB: How dare you accuse me of being irritating
	🧂 7:22pm solo mon: ARB I sense you are feeling some sort of way!
	7:22pm Krys O.: If a life coach, as described by Maria Bamford, can not have succeeded at anything, then is an empath someone who fails to sense what others are feeling? Narrator: The answer is yes.
	7:23pm ultradamno: Irritaining is the proper word, after all.
	7:23pm spodiodi: solo, thank you for that last one (OLO) aloha, coelacanthØ! thanks for another confirmation i've not completely lost it
	7:23pm Handy Haversack: Riker: <adjusts uniform>

	7:25pm StringOFperils: It's infograting!
	7:25pm Niall: "How dare you accuse me of being irritatingHow dare you accuse me of being irritating" - @ARB, please, don't empathize with the music! Don't sympathize, either! ;)
	🧂 7:25pm solo mon: Hi hi HyperD we are walnut bread.
	7:26pm Niall: You gotta be Ki Di Me...
	7:26pm ARB: Same singer as Inflatable Boy Clams here
	🧂 7:26pm solo mon: Irritating = inspiring in the country of ARBistan
	7:26pm HyperDose: Walnuts and bananas. It's all about finding that perfect pair.
	7:27pm spodiodi: haha, Handy
	7:27pm Little Danny: from irritation come pearls
	🧂 7:27pm solo mon: Banana born and bred.
	7:27pm Niall: Miso and sweet potatoes.
	🧂 7:28pm Aitch: why empathise when you can synthesise
	7:28pm Perogimutter: Must chime in DJ The Arbitrarium with ARB as how much I hate enjoying the show.
	7:28pm StringOFperils: I make your empath eyes
	7:28pm Feldy: Solo you have banana bread?
	7:28pm Krys O.: I thought I heard Inflatable Boy Clams!
	7:28pm coelacanth∅: spodi i would never accuse you of having not completely lost it
	🧂 7:28pm solo mon: Love algebra suicide. Great band
	7:28pm ARB: lol thanks Perogimutter
	🧂 7:28pm Aitch: Do zombies head south for the summer?
	🧂 7:29pm solo mon: coelacanthø at least we can all lose it together
	7:29pm Krys O.: Need to warm up rice noodles. All this banana talk is giving me some idears.
	🧂 7:30pm Aitch: better than oh dears
	7:30pm Feldy: Krys O, banana-ramen maybe?
	7:30pm Niall: This set's giving me a panic attack; I don't understand why, but I'm going to white-knuckle it until I do, whiplashing between bewilderment to unselfconscious joy.
	7:30pm Handy Haversack: Definitely not the first time I have clicked over to see who was making such good sounds and found it to be Algebra Suicide.
	7:30pm Krys O.: @Aitch: Zombie heads fall off and roll south for the summer.
	🧂 7:31pm Aitch: Hold those feelings and write a Niall -list
	7:31pm StringOFperils: Headin' south.
	7:31pm flannery: when ive already missed algebra suicide :'-(
	🧂 7:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Empaths shop for groceries at Empathmark.
	7:31pm Niall: Krys O: So they head- damn it, @StringOFPerils got it.
	7:31pm kev: agree with Handy
	7:31pm Andres: Why bananas as pizza topping controversial? Banana flat bread.
	7:31pm Krys O.: @Feldy: Perhaps, but I'm leaning toward adding sunflower seed butter and sesame oil with banana chips.
	7:31pm ARB: I'm not going to ease up on you all at all this hour btw
	🧂 7:32pm solo mon: Niall-list @aitch you are killing me OLOL
	7:32pm Niall: So, this is Amps for Christ.
	7:32pm StringOFperils: The safe word is Arb, but see where that gets you.
	7:32pm spodiodi: BANANA CHIPS 👀
	7:32pm Krys O.: Break off the brakes, ARB.
	7:33pm Perogimutter: OK DJ ARB now I resolutely refuse to stop listening.
	🧂 7:33pm solo mon: Irritainting and ARBrasive.
	7:33pm ARB: Hiya kev! Hi Flannery!
	7:34pm shiloh in spirit: i love being irritating
	🧂 7:34pm solo mon: I guess I’ll have another slice of me and HyperD loaf then.
	7:34pm Andres: There is an ointment for irritaints.
	7:34pm ARB: What was Flannery's quote about annoying women? that was the best.
	🧂 7:35pm solo mon: Normalize being irritating.
	7:35pm HyperDose: My cat sitting in her cardboard house with a smug look on her face is my mood for this show
	7:35pm Niall: ARBitrage: profiting off changes in relative vexation between this show and the callers and commenters from the previous one. I'm pretty sure this only works on a large scale!
	7:35pm merz.medallion: Yahoo!
	7:36pm Niall: Vexation and good will, rather.
	7:36pm StringOFperils: Normative acceptable limits of nervous vexation
	7:36pm Niall: People Like ARB.
	7:36pm Feldy: Normalize making art that is challenging yet accessible
	🧂 7:36pm solo mon: This is just (wal) nuts
	🧂 7:37pm Aitch: I like her
	7:37pm coelacanth∅: THIS IS GREAT!
	7:37pm shiloh in spirit: feeling a little silly from this one
	7:37pm merz.medallion: Nuts and stufff, nut stuff…
	7:37pm Niall: Man, Stapleton still lives in Ireland, IIRC, and I still ain't met the dude. I'll have to try harder when I go back home. Like a real weirdo.
	7:37pm flannery: im always threatening to do to the nurse with wound list what they did with the joy division waveforms n put it on some keds
	7:38pm flannery: maybe a onesie???
	7:38pm Niall: Do it, @Flannery!
	7:38pm coelacanth∅: i have a non-smoking habit, but i do deviate occasionally
	7:38pm merz.medallion: I scream, you scream, we all scream for nuts!
	7:38pm flannery: ok nurse with wound onesie premiums
	7:38pm HyperDose: If a onesie doesn't have a butt flap, is it even a onesie?
	7:38pm Little Danny: love this!!!
	7:39pm ARB: merz.medallion!
	🧂 7:39pm solo mon: ARB at least 2 people just said they liked you. Is this damaging your brand?

	7:39pm merz.medallion: butt flaps rule
	7:39pm ARB: When You've Got Foetus On Your Breath gives us the most relaxing song of the set
	7:39pm Perogimutter: Sorry, I was reading. I heard "vagina" and "nuts" and maybe something about pockets. I really do promise to pay more attention.
	🧂 7:40pm Aitch: Foetus to treat us, this is almost sweet
	7:40pm coelacanth∅: "DRY vagina"... not as inviting.
	7:41pm merz.medallion: Bogus one armed coat-us
	🧂 7:41pm solo mon: You’ve got Foetus on my calliope
	7:41pm Niall: Love the arc Thirlwell's career has taken.
	7:41pm HyperDose: Designers, make it work! 🥩✂️
	7:41pm ARB: Are you relaxed?

	7:42pm flannery: im so relaxed im... regressing
	🧂 7:42pm solo mon: Do they sell nuts at this circus??
	7:42pm Krys O.: My head is exploding and I like it.
	7:42pm Andres: Piece of gum?
	🧂 7:43pm solo mon: Flannery is going Benjamin Buttons on us.
	7:43pm HyperDose: Is the nursery that's next to the roadside circus engulfed in flames again?
	🧂 7:43pm Aitch: Wild fan made clip for a Foetus track I enjo, for after the show. www.youtube.com...
	7:43pm Handy Haversack: Get some for-profit-style synergy going with Jim the Poet and put the NWW list on his rabbit outfit.
	7:43pm flannery: im benjamin buttoning REALLY hard
	🧂 7:43pm solo mon: Andres - fruit or mint?

	🧂 7:43pm chresti: A pleasant relaxed head explosion
	7:44pm ultradamno: It's interesting that somewhere in the 00s Foetus became his least interesting incarnation while Thirlwell, Steroid Maximus, Manorexia and now Xordox shined
	7:44pm HyperDose: Irri-taint-ment
	7:44pm PaulRobeson1920: Intense Hi Hi Hi all

	7:47pm Perogimutter: hmmm, nap time, I LIKE nap time...and cold milk time too.
	7:47pm Niall: @HyperDose: Yeah! It's like watching Brass Eye or something.
	7:47pm HyperDose: @chresti It's a reference to a movie where "a man starts aging backwards with consequences"
	7:48pm StringOFperils: When Arb wakes up in the morning, these song titles are written all over the walls in ketchup
	7:48pm flannery: oh chresti, i am just regressing, just in time for nap time
