[18:01] Rahul: where's the rain, jane
[18:02] Me: well, jim, it looks like we have a cold front moving eastward
[18:03] Me: it's going to drive the temperature down, so bundle up tonight, folks!
[18:03] Rahul: jane, do you even have a degree?
[18:03] Rahul: in something
[18:03] Rahul: anything
[18:03] Rahul: preferably, weathering
[18:03] Me: "weathering"
[18:04] Rahul: yes jane that's what i asked
[18:04] Me: jim, in the biz, we call that "meteorology", or "the study of meteors"
[18:04] Me: that comes from the latin word "metus" meaning "to swat lightly with a palm frond"
[18:05] Rahul: my dog craps better forecasts than this
[18:05] Rahul: jane
[18:05] Me: jim, you don't have a dog
[18:06] Me: that's your sweater
[18:06] Me: that you tied a leash to
[18:06] Rahul: that might explain why it never seems hungry
[18:06] Me: stop feeding it cookies
[18:06] Me: you know chocolate's not good for dogs
[18:06] Me: or sweaters
[18:06] Rahul: what about dogs who wear sweaters
[18:06] Me: they LOVE the chocolate
[18:07] Me: or, in french, "l'chocolaize"
[18:07] Me: which, of course, comes from the german word "scheffenbrachtneun"
[18:07] Me: which means "a little bigger than a breadbox"
[18:08] Rahul: jane
[18:08] Rahul: JANE
[18:08] Rahul: you majored in meteors
[18:08] Rahul: not linguistics
[18:08] Me: well, jim, as we all know, language was brough to earth via meteors
[18:09] Me: a fun fact:
[18:09] Me: the very same meteor that killed the dinosaurs also brought us Spanish
[18:11] Me: i see, jim, that i've stunned you into silence with my intellect
[18:11] Rahul: you totally out-retarded me in this conversation
[18:11] Rahul: it was impressive
