01:21 < aestetix> wow
01:22 < aestetix> I just got an email from Deutsch Bank that basically said "yeah, most places were caught offguard by the Brexit, but not us! ask us how to invest your money post-UK"
01:23 < _NSAKEY> aestetix: Isn't that one of the banks that's going to collapse?
01:23 < aestetix> I fucking hope not.
01:23 < aestetix> They are my bank :/
01:24 < aestetix> And thanks to Obama, it's hard enough for Americans to get bank accounts in Germany

07:59 < aestetix> guten morgen rattle
08:00 <@rattle> Shouldn't you be off doing something useful like playing Pokemon Go?  Why the hell are you talking to me?!
08:01 < aestetix> das war nicht gut sagen
08:02 < aestetix> aber ich weise deine mutter hat eine elderberry gewesen
08:03 <@rattle> Don't bring moms into this when I'm about to meet yours.
08:03 <@rattle> Some could call that . . . strategically unwise.
08:04 < aestetix> shit you understand german?
08:06 <@rattle> No, I'm a fucking security chief at an institution that does foreign policy.  If I don't have a way to get something translated ASAP, I'm probably not on my game.
08:06 <@rattle> Get worried when you see me talk back in german.
08:07 < aestetix> also the s on wise should be the sed-zed, aka ss
08:07 < aestetix> it doesn't translate correctly otherwise
08:07 < aestetix> I just ran that whole thing through google and it got it painfully worng
08:09 <@rattle> As an American who has lived overseas, I'm amused to see you taking up the inevitable hobby of learning how to best talk shit.
08:09 < aestetix> haha
08:09 < aestetix> well, I'm attempting to drop an english insult, in german, at an american
08:10 < aestetix> where/when did you live overseas?
08:11 <@rattle> Hong Kong.  I used to be able to belt out a bunch of great "fuck you's" in cantonese.
08:12 <@rattle> The one that basically translated to "jump out a window and die" was my favorite.  It sort of implied you wanted to watch them climb the building and do it.
08:13 < aestetix> Nice.
08:13 < aestetix> There is an entire subset of the german language that is basically insulting jews.
08:13 < aestetix> Naturally that was "retired" after 1945
08:15 < aestetix> Reminds me of when I first got here and I needed to go to the store and buy trash bags
08:15 < aestetix> I asked one of my german friends what the word for them was
08:16 < aestetix> his reply: "judenhaut"
08:21 <@rattle> Damn.
08:21 < aestetix> I am so fucking glad I looked that up before going to the store.
08:25 <@rattle> I don't have anything close to a working knowledge of any language other than English, but Spanish and German I occasionally feel like I can intrinsically understand somehow, in terms of being able to follow the flow of a discussion.  I'm half Hungarian, so it sorta makes sense.
08:26 <@rattle> I'm not a lingually talented person.  I tried very hard at one point to learn Mandarin and nothing clicked, ever.  Very frustrating.
08:27 < aestetix> Mandarin is really fucking hard.
08:27 < aestetix> I don't mean for me. I mean on the US government language difficulty level.
08:27 < aestetix> I think it's like level 3 or 4 where 5 is the hardest
08:27 < aestetix> (french/spanish are 1, german is 2)
08:28 <@rattle> Oh, when I started trying to learn, I was all ambitious and had the goal of being able to understand Shanghainese.  Total fail.
08:28 < aestetix> The slavic languages, including hungarian, polish, czech, and others... are all clusterfucks in their own ways
08:28 < aestetix> I have a friend who speaks fluent hungarian and cannot understand polish at all
08:29 < aestetix> I'm still blown away that I am two hours from train away from poland, that has its own language, based in a totally different language family from german, and in many cases its own alphabet
08:30 <@rattle> At some point this year, I'm actually going to take a real vacation..  Something I basically never do...  One of the things I'm thinking about is going to Budapest.  I think it would be interesting to visit the source of the majority of my genetic makeup.
08:30 <@rattle> I know _nothing_ about Hungary or Hungarian culture.  Zip.  Zero.  But, I'm half that..
08:31 < aestetix> Have you been to eastern europe or the russian countries before?
08:32 < aestetix> I don't know how China is, but once you get east of berlin, the culture is basically unrecognizable to an American

08:33 < aestetix> .... also to anyone who lived in those countries before 1939, but that's another story ;)
08:56 <@rattle> Nope.  I've never been anywhere in Europe beyond a layover.  It's a problem I need to rectify.
08:57 <@rattle> Almost all my overseas experience has been around Asia.

18:14 <@rattle> Once again, I find myself on what Americans call a train.
18:15 <@rattle> Which is still better than any other public mass transportation system in the country.  And still, so much worse than most other major countries in the world.
18:29 < xray1> I had jury duty today. Before the trial started we were sitting in the jury room and someone asked what Pokemon Go is. I explained it. With that one of the jurors installed the app on their phone only to discover a Pokemon sitting in the middle of the jury room table. I'm not kidding. I saw it on their phone with my own eyes. They managed to capture it with a Pokeball. That is so not right.
18:29 < xray1> I suspect the first time you install the app it puts a Pokemon at your location which happened to be the jury room.
18:31 <@opticron> yes
