.... (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
did you lose it?
12:31 AM
Ugly: well, i dont think so
but i havent seen it in a while
me: why would i have your ipad

Ugly: cuz ya stole it

me: btw, did you steal my ipad and take it spain with you

Ugly: very

Ugly: i would be happy if you stole it at this point
12:34 AM
me: haha aww

Ugly: a little

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

o_O
12:58 AM
Ugly: _
me: that?
Ugly: no
less expression
me: lol
Ugly: o_o
me: but that's the sleeping look
is it a bored look?
Ugly: yes
bored
me: but it's really sarcastic exasperation?
Ugly: LOL
no.
omg
me: hahaahha
Ugly: i hate this conversation.
me: but that's how i see it
lolol
12:59 AM
when you have your bored look
it's really sarcastic exasperation
Ugly: lol

1:03 AM
LOL "i don't have a face after i burp"
Ugly: lol
me: well how does mine look

1:04 AM
Ugly: it's just.....

me: fat
1:05 AM
Ugly: it's grossness followed by slightly sheepish don't-give-a-fuck-eat-my-burp-ness
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

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!

2:17 AM
Ugly: lol
me: another existential convo
Ugly: the absurdity of our convo
absurdism
"adventures in absurdism"

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

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