#34107 (193/343) ↑Funny ↓Awful ⚐Flag [reeedobs] brb...got to go poop
[Snow] I think it's written into the original IRC RFC that IRC would be a convenient way for people in different geographic regions
to communicate and keep up to date on each others' bowel movements.
[Snow] Indeed!
[Snow] RFC1459:
[Snow] Abstract
[Snow] The IRC protocol was developed over the last 4 years since it was
[Snow] first implemented as a means for users on a BBS to chat amongst
[Snow] themselves and to keep each other informed on intestinal
[Snow] minutae. Now it supports a world-wide network of servers and
[Snow] clients, and is stringing to cope with growth. Over the past 2 years,
[Snow] the average number of users connected to the main IRC network has
[Snow] grown by a factor of 10.

[Snow] I shit you not.
[Snow] No pun intended. |
