Hopefully! Your meeting was much more Tolkien related than ours was, Lindil [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Here's the edited chat transcript of something that happened to us while we were still in Chico:

I am MartyrofHejis, Belin is Ibaimendi, and Phrim is just Phrim [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Ibaimendi: I'm always happy to share Jory, Marty [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
MartyrofHejis: ooh, we saw him in the cafe on Saturday, guys
TheXPhial: cool
Ibaimendi: yeah, we did
* Phrim shudders at this story...
Ibaimendi: he wrote something in there!
MartyrofHejis: ya, he was writing
Ibaimendi: I don't know if he noticed we were looking at him
Ibaimendi: or that I was saying "hey, it's Jory John" in my pseudowhisper
Ibaimendi: hehe
* Phrim guesses he did, since random annoying dude made such a ruckus
MartyrofHejis: lol
MartyrofHejis: he has now been dubbed "Random Annoying Dude"! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Ibaimendi: no, no, no
MartyrofHejis: not jory
Ibaimendi: we need something with a different acronym
MartyrofHejis: other guy
MartyrofHejis: ooh
MartyrofHejis: rad, no!
Ibaimendi: Jory=rad. Random Annoying Dude=not rad.
MartyrofHejis: While we were sitting, talking quietly, a guy came up to the couch and aked if he could sit down
MartyrofHejis: he seemed quite normal at first
* Phrim laughs at the term "rad"
Phrim: well
* Ibaimendi occasionally uses the term "rad"....
MartyrofHejis: he started talking
Phrim: he never seemed quite normal, to me at least
MartyrofHejis: well....
MartyrofHejis: anyway
MartyrofHejis: he started talking
MartyrofHejis: To Me
MartyrofHejis: he would not shut up
Ibaimendi: nothing he said made any sense
MartyrofHejis: he wanted very strange information
Lush: talking about what?
MartyrofHejis: he kept trying to get us to rent a hostel in San Francisco
Lush: maybe he was on drugs
MartyrofHejis: and he was very interested in Phrim's flight back home
Ibaimendi: we considered that, Lush
Ibaimendi: but we think maybe he was just insane
MartyrofHejis: yes
Lush: i try to rent out hostels to people when i'm on drugs, myself
Ibaimendi: lol
Lush: i also see Vingilot in the sky
MartyrofHejis: then, we escaped the cafe, thanks to Pheim
MartyrofHejis: Phrim
Ibaimendi: but I'm sure you're much more interesting when you do
Ibaimendi: yeah, Pheim was no help at all
Phrim: Martyr took out a deck of cards so he looked up 20 kajillion card games on his computer and suggested we play them
MartyrofHejis: yes [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Ibaimendi: and he told some joke about a street somewhere
MartyrofHejis: ya, i never uunderstood that
Lush: damn, i thought the people i met were strange
Ibaimendi: it wasn't funny, and it also made no sense
Ibaimendi: I thought it was a very funny experience
MartyrofHejis: after we escaped and went somewhere else for a couple hours, we came back and he was STILL THERE
MartyrofHejis: we decided not to go back in
Ibaimendi: quietly tapping away on his laptop
MartyrofHejis: yes
* Phrim was seriously freaked out
Ibaimendi: as we were leaving, he'd asked if he'd driven us off
Ibaimendi: I don't remember if we lied or not
* Phrim did :-)
MartyrofHejis: i said nothing, just kept moving
Lush: did he smell funny?
MartyrofHejis: he was addressing me the whole time
MartyrofHejis: not really
Ibaimendi: did he, Marty?
* Phrim did not sniff him, sorry
MartyrofHejis: yes, i was closest to him
Lush: insane people tend to smell funny
MartyrofHejis: you guys were across the table
Ibaimendi: he also wanted to know if we'd met on the internet, because people that go on the internet are _wierd_, he said
Ibaimendi: completely unlike him
MartyrofHejis: he only talked AT you, not TO you
Ibaimendi: he not being wierd at all...
MartyrofHejis: lol
Phrim: you should've taken his offer to let Jory sit with us :-)
MartyrofHejis: yes, come to think of it...
Phrim: then we could've assumed the role of weirdo freaky people :-)
MartyrofHejis: hehehe
Ibaimendi: oooh, we should have
Ibaimendi: now that would have been a much more interesting conversation
MartyrofHejis: possibly
MartyrofHejis: certainly less frightning
* Ibaimendi wasn't frightened, what was the guy going to do to us, seriously?
Lush: man
Phrim: he wasn't going to do anything
MartyrofHejis: he wouldn't shut up, and he was, just...igh
* MartyrofHejis wasn't really afraid
* Phrim thinks it'd be hilarious if Jory was eavesdropping on us and wrote an article :-)
* Ibaimendi thinks so too.....
MartyrofHejis: that'd be cool
