.... (15 minutes into a heated debate)
me: yeah, but the original scrabble game tested your own knowledge of words
12:23 AM 
you couldn't try CID, or SID, or TID in the same spot, because you know they aren't words
  
but in WWF you think one of them might be accepted
 
Ugly: but that's just the convenience and ease of an electronic game
 
me: because it might be in their weird dictionary
12:24 AM 
Ugly: ultimately, winning the game is about strategy and not about word knowledge
 
me: but it's infuriating when someone wins with stupid words that you know they didn't know were words
 
Ugly: it's more of a strategy game in its electonic incarnation
 
me: it's about strategy AND word knowledge
 
Ugly: but that's how you play this game
12:25 AM 
honestly often are you able to make words that are beyond standard vocabulary?
 
me: yes.
 
Ugly: *how often
 
me: it tests creativity, word knowledge, and strategy
12:26 AM 
Ugly: yes
 
me: some ppl aren't good at this game because they are able to imagine what words could come out of a bunch of letters
  
they aren't able i mean
 
Ugly: but winning requires more strategy than word knowledge
  
cuz i know a lot of words, but i don't often win over ppl who play using strategy
 
me: right, and those are the ppl who plug the must
12:27 AM 
and use words that aren't really words
 
Ugly: lol
  
so what?
 
me: they def. wouldn't win if you played a real scrabble game
  
cuz they wouldn't be able to put CID in there
 
Ugly: yes, i agree.
  
i guess i've just accepted it as a different game than scrabble
 
me: i'm just defending the integrity of the original scrabble game
 
Ugly: i realize.
 
me: lol
12:28 AM 
Ugly: it's very noble.
 
me: hahah
  
:P
  
you should challenge one of your competitors to a real game
12:29 AM 
Ugly: that would be difficult
  
but yea
  
good idea.
  
i've basically thought of one comopetitor whom i can physicaly challenge in the same room
 
me: okay who
 
Ugly: kat
  
i see her often
12:30 AM 
me: yeah, you should def. challenge her to a traditional game
  
and use the oxford english dictionary
 
Ugly: and when do u play wwf?
 
me: when i'm using your ipad
 
Ugly: i mean, you play wwf?
 
me: or your iphone
  
:D
 
Ugly: btw, do u have my ipad?
 
me: lol what??
  
lolol
  
uh, no

12:31 AM 
Ugly: well, i dont think so
  
but i havent seen it in a while
 
me: why would i have your ipad
  
lol!
 
Ugly: cuz ya stole it
  
to a foreign country
 
me: btw, did you steal my ipad and take it spain with you
  
just, by the way
 
Ugly: right
 
me: lol

Ugly: lol
12:32 AM 
me: lolol
  
"when do you play wwf?"
  
"when i'm using your ipad....which i stole"
 
Ugly: lol
 
me: how could you lose your ipad
 
Ugly: i didnt lose it
  
it's misplaced somewhere
  
i haven't even used it
 
me: lol, somewhere in the last 6 months that i was gone
12:33 AM 
Ugly: yes
 
me: hmm
  
weird
 
Ugly: very
 
me: lol
 
Ugly: i would be happy if you stole it at this point
12:34 AM 
me: haha aww

Ugly: a little
12:35 AM

Ugly: haha

-----------------------

Ugly: lol

Ugly: hahaha
 
me: heh, or what that be kinda weird...
 
Ugly: *looks around
 
me: would
 
Ugly: ok.
 
me: lol you looked around?
 
Ugly: yea a little
 
me: you mean, the sarcastic look?
  
or you looked around the room
12:54 AM 
Ugly: no it was the look with a shrug that says, sure whatever.
 
me: hahah
 
Ugly: comical because it's not the nonchalant reaction you should expect
 
me: not quite sure if i see it
 
Ugly: nevermind.
12:55 AM 
me: but isn't that look nonchalant
 
Ugly: i'm explaining my own joke.
  
it is nonchalant.
  
it shouldn't be.
 
me: is it the
  
look around, mouth turned down, kinda resigned look?
12:56 AM 
Ugly: lol
  
no
  
not resigned
 
me: like the rudy suggesting lunch kinda look
 
Ugly: it's the,
 
me: "well, uh, let's see, uhh...."
  
the heavy-lids, calm exasperated look
  
?
 
Ugly: i look up from reading an engrossing book because you asked me trivial question and now i'm going back to my book look
12:57 AM 
me: lol, well depends on the question
 
Ugly: o_o
 
me: hahahaha

Ugly: yes

me: but it's really sarcastic exasperation?
 
Ugly: LOL

me: hahaahha
 
Ugly: i hate this conversation.
 
me: but that's how i see it

Ugly: lol

me: hahaha

1:06 AM 
me: pwahahaha
 
Ugly: you should video it and play it slow mo
 
me: well yours is the bored "i don't give a fuck" look
 
Ugly: lol
1:07 AM 
well, that's the face i had
  
when you asked me to be "other mother"
 
me: lol you should've said then ::bored look::
  
instead of ::look around::
1:08 AM 
Ugly: those were stage directions
  
lol
  
that's just what happened
 
me: lol, so it's like bored look in combination with look up and then down again
  
or is it look back and forth
 
Ugly: and the
  
looking around to see if anyone else noticed the mundanity that i just experienced.
1:09 AM 
look
 
me: lolol you mean with your own look?
  
or with my comment
 
Ugly: with your comment
 
me: haha why is that mundane!
  
that's not mundane at all.
 
Ugly: of your comment
  
i know!!!
  
it's irony!
  
or, just a comedic tactic
1:10 AM 
me: okay, well you'll just have to show me this on video
------------------------------------ 
me: le bye!
  
btw, i'm gonna copy part of this convo on cl
 
Ugly: hahaha
 
me: pwahah!
 
Ugly: ok
 
me: def. cl material.
2:17 AM 
Ugly: lol
 
me: another existential convo
 
Ugly: the absurdity of our convo
  
absurdism
  
"adventures in absurdism"
 
me: so absurd it's profound
  
there should be a section in cl called that
 
Ugly: "tumor twin adventures in absurdism
  
"
 
me: bahahha
  
profound adventures in absurdism
  
brought to you by the tumor twins
 
Ugly: lol
  
that's too long.
2:18 AM 
me: that's gonna be the title
  
hahah
 
Ugly: but it's absurd
 
me: lolol
  
well, first, we talked about the rules of WWF for like 80% of this convo
  
and then about the "look around" stage directions
  
for like the other 20%
2:19 AM 
or, more like 60 and 40
 
Ugly: no first you ambushed me and ranted about how you think 70% of the world is insane for being in relationships.
 
me: lol no not 70%
 
Ugly: you dont know that.
2:20 AM 
me: okay fine
  
but that was after the WWF convo
  
which ended with an equally absurd "do you have my ipad" comment
 
Ugly: no it wasnt
  
LOL
  
lmao
2:21 AM 
me: made even absurder with the btw preceding it
 
Ugly: hahahahahah
 
me: lolol
  
oh man
  
this is turning into like, the meta-absurd
 
Ugly: yes
2:22 AM 
me: lolol
 
Ugly: wonderful
  
having an absurd conversation about our absurdity
2:23 AM 
me: pahahahah
  
omg, dude, spanish ppl would never understand this.
  
or, any non-spanish ppl.
  
also
----------------------------------------
me: lmao! "70% of the world is insane for being in a relationship"
  
"no, not 70%"
  
"you don't know that"
  
lololol
  
that is absurd in itself
 
Ugly: lol
  
yes
 
me: disagreeing over an arbitrary number
 
Ugly: lol
2:25 AM 
an arbitrary number used to assert a bitter claim about relationships
2:26 AM 
as if it were truth
 
me: hahah
  
i didn't say 70%!
 
Ugly: ok fine
 
me: i said everyone
  
you invented the arbitrary number
 
Ugly: i was making an abitrary paraphrasing of your bitter claim
2:27 AM 
me: lolol
  
yes
2:28 AM 
okay, bed time
 
Ugly: ho boy
 
me: you should re-read this convo
 
Ugly: lol
  
oh i will
  
genius
 
me: for a further study of the absurd
2:29 AM 
Ugly: lol
 
me: bye!
13 minutes
2:42 AM 
me: i am le back
 
Ugly: lol!!!!
2:43 AM 
me: lol

Ugly: i'm cl to see if you'd already excerpted our convo
 
me: hahaha
  
no not yet
 
Ugly: yes this IS absurd!!
 
me: i'll do it tomorrow
 
Ugly: because you are back.
  
for more.

Ugly: and i'm on cl trying to get more.
Ugly: to keep laughing about our laughing about ourselves
