< shmookey> can anyone recommend me some kind of book holding device suitable for lying about on couches and beds and stuff?
< sjy> I would just feel like an idiot having some contraption hold a book in front of my face for me
< victor> maybe, but it sure would be handy
< shmookey> I guess someone just needs to come up with a novel idea for one
< shmookey> maybe I'm not reading deeply enough into it, but it seems like an easy problem to solve
< shmookey> there must be some kind of story behind the patents for them not being more popular
< shmookey> maybe everyone's already booked out for this evening
< victor> i tried to think of a pun that would somehow incorporate "stop posting" but my mind WAS A BLANK PAGE
< shmookey> there's a whole library of possibilities
< shmookey> and it's not like manual labour
< victor> im not good at coming up with references
< shmookey> that's because you're spineless
< shmookey> nah you're all write
< shmookey> apart from victor I can't get a single chapter contribute :(
< victor> theres a fine line between pun and malapropism
< victor> noone here respects your title
< victor> theres too much spacing between our replies
< shmookey> that's the word on the street, I hear
victor> this requires too much inking
< victor> i wonder how many we'll get through before it comes to a full stop
< shmookey> yeah, I think we're pretty much sentenced to stay here until we exhaust all the easy ones
< shmookey> on the author hand, maybe we already have
< victor> this excersise is really punctuating my inability to start my assignment
< victor> which is bad because im sure the law department wants my paper back
< shmookey> yeah, same. the sheer volume of work in front of me this study break is scary
< victor> Ive certainly got a lot to cover
< shmookey> don't let it make you lose the plot
< shmookey> you're not the first person to be swamped with work
< victor> I can handle the pressure, ive got a lot of character
< victor> this activity is really hard to put down
< victor> I think the time Ive spent doing it illustrates my point well
< shmookey> it's kind of comical that we're racking our brains on this instead of stuff we need to do
< victor> this has got to be a record for two-man punning
< shmookey> yeah, it's been pretty epic
< victor> by the time i get my work done the grass will be covered in dewey
< victor> that one was pretty bad, but when it comes to punning I cant roll with the prose
< victor> you, on the other hand, are in pretty good form
< shmookey> IRC is a pretty good setting for puns

< shmookey> the cold makes me too indexterous to type quickly
< shmookey> the contents of this window is now almost entirely puns
< victor> you just turned a new page in lateral thinking
< victor> coxy you ruined the streak when you could have been a valuable third person
< shmookey> still cold though :(. I hear peruse nice this time of year, maybe I should go there
< victor> some hot skim milk should warm you up
< shmookey> yeah, and stories of the grass being greener elsewhere are generally fiction
< victor> its hard to know if you've gone to far at tomes
< shmookey> as long as you don't mention your colon you'll be alright
< shmookey> the guy across the road is always making a bracket
< shmookey> maybe I should slash his tyres
< victor> or beat him into a comma
< shmookey> either way, it would involve putting my asterisk
< victor> i really need to get to work, but I dont want to parse up this opportunity
< victor> the pun truly is mightier than the sword
< shmookey> yeah, I need to dash off too. it's been fun.
