A conversation today with yang:

[08:36:35PM] sorta lame: i thought you had a paper fool

[11:10:46PM] TheGrape30: 0 pages

[11:10:56PM] sorta lame: hahaaha
[11:10:59PM] sorta lame: yeah right
[11:11:01PM] sorta lame: you liar
[11:11:06PM] sorta lame: why do you lie so much
[11:11:08PM] sorta lame: straight to my face

[11:11:10PM] TheGrape30: it's true!
[11:11:12PM] * TheGrape30 sobs
[11:11:15PM] TheGrape30: I have nothing to show
[11:11:17PM] TheGrape30: NOTHING

[11:11:17PM] sorta lame: stfu

[11:11:27PM] TheGrape30: I'm so sad

[11:11:27PM] sorta lame: this is how it usually goes:
[11:17:18PM] sorta lame:
you: i have nothing!! oh, cruel life!!!
me: really??
you: it's true! ... well, actually, i managed to write 10 pages more than their suggested length, so i guess it's not that bad.
me: ugh...
you: but they're such crappy pages!
me: really? why are they crappy?
you: cuz they're crappy!
me: oh... [some more pity]
you: mm...well i guess my writing is actually not crappy at all. in fact, it's probably pretty brilliant.
me: UGH
you: but i chose such an ugly font! they'll definitely fail me now!
me: [cocks a gun]

[11:17:53PM] sorta lame: i know your pattern, you sumvabitch
[11:18:08PM] sorta lame: i'm not falling in your trap this time!!!

I decided to forward this to Mike. His response:

[11:34:37PM] mikeyu120: THAT IS SO TRUE!!!
[11:34:46PM] mikeyu120: *SO* true
[11:35:11PM] mikeyu120: haha

[11:36:05PM] TheGrape30: no it's not!!

[11:37:54PM] mikeyu120: yes it is!

[11:38:09PM] TheGrape30: it's much truer of you

[11:38:12PM] mikeyu120: but yang didn't quite finish

[11:38:19PM] TheGrape30: I am completely honest about my incompetence

[11:39:07PM] mikeyu120: you: but i chose such an ugly font! they'll definitely fail me now!
me: [cocks a gun]

you: I got a 900%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and my professor invited me to her house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[11:39:47PM] TheGrape30: hahaha
[11:39:51PM] TheGrape30: completely untrue!

[11:44:00PM] mikeyu120: did i tell you that the teacher played my piano "song" for the class on friday?
[11:44:04PM] mikeyu120: he played like 3-4 others too
[11:44:09PM] mikeyu120: mine was so embarassing

[11:44:31PM] TheGrape30: please
[11:44:36PM] TheGrape30: yours embarrassed everyone else
[11:44:44PM] TheGrape30: I played your song this weekend to cheer me up
[11:44:49PM] TheGrape30: reminds me of amadeus

[11:44:54PM] mikeyu120: lol

[11:45:20PM] TheGrape30: but then it really just depressed me for my complete lack of talent

[11:45:39PM] mikeyu120: you: i'm so depressed.... i got only an 800% last test. and my research isn't going so well... i might have lost my chance for a turing award this year... better play this song to remind me how dumb others are

[11:45:56PM] TheGrape30: hahaha
[11:46:08PM] TheGrape30: dude you guys have such a skewed view of how I think!

[11:46:14PM] mikeyu120: you: hahahahah... man that composer sucks... must've been on drugs... and the best part, he wasn't on drugs! he just sucks!

[11:46:22PM] TheGrape30: haha

[11:46:40PM] mikeyu120: well if all your friends think this way...
[11:47:03PM] mikeyu120: maybe it's not your friends who are skewed...

[11:47:13PM] TheGrape30: it's my enemies!
