+1 meme.

I’m thoroughly amused – thought I’d share.

A little aside

Last Friday at the Beyond Motion office a bunch of ex-coworkers joined our prototyping crew of 4 for a festive beer o’clock.

Late in the afternoon/evening (after most everyone else had left) Nick and Ellen ventured onto Omegle, a site which pairs you with a random person for anonymous chat.

It sounded like they were having fun so I thought I’d give it a try (again). While Nick was having a ~real conversation~ I thought I’d just have a laugh. Anonymity is great.

Here’s my conversation. I imagine this “girl” was just like all the other predators on there. Ahh, it’s fun to mix it up. Ellen threw in a few lines (like “to rhyme with haggle”, “my mum says that” and “she’s 56″).

Jack posted about Omegle yesterday, where “you are put into a 1 to 1 instant messaging conversation with a stranger, anonymously.”

I thought I’d try it out, and my first real conversation (after being put with someone that just quit straight away) went as follows:

You’re now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!

Stranger: hi

You: hello

Stranger: from?

You: Antarctica

You: well… close to… on the outskirts of it

You: you?

Stranger: finland

You: oh nice, I imagine it’s equally cold there

You: do you sometimes wake up with frozen feet?

Stranger: sometimes

You: like, frozen solid…

You: in a big block of ice?

You: i usually have to get the acetylene torch to free my feet from sleepfreeze

Your conversational partner has disconnected.

Aaaaand, I thought I’d edit in a few more convos:

You’re now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
Stranger: here is a man who want to cam sex
You: here is a man who does not want
Your conversational partner has disconnected.

Then:

You’re now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
Stranger: hello
You: hello
You: you’re not ‘a man who want to cam sex’, are you? :/
You: there seems to be quite a few of them around
*long pause*
You: … i hope you didn’t break your fingers typing that first ‘hello’
Your conversational partner has disconnected.

I seem to have a knack for this whole Omegle thing.
