TO MAKE SENSE OF THIS, YOU MUST LOOK FOR THE FILE asciistack.jpg WHICH SHOULD
BE FOUND LOCALLY (on angstmonster)  ANYWAYS, TRILOBYTE INTERUPPTED READING TO
SHOW ME THIS...

PART I: THE MSGS

[tbyte] have you seen it?
[msg(tbyte)] yeah
[tbyte] it's essentially a statement about antidisestablishmentarianist 
        humanoid mongrels attempting to undermine national pugnificancy
[msg(tbyte)] word
[tbyte] in the face of mass hysteria
[msg(tbyte)] that's the answer i was looking for
[tbyte] i bet
[tbyte] hahaha
[tbyte] the thing is
[tbyte] and i didn't take a whole screen shot
[tbyte] for some reason
[tbyte] your text file
[tbyte]in my web browser
[tbyte] shows up with the text 'CHEESENCRACKERS' behind an URL
[msg(tbyte)] yeah
[msg(tbyte)] that's cause the url is for cheesencrackers
[msg(tbyte)] i was trying to figure out wtf that was about
[tbyte] yeah well see that url is for addendum right
[tbyte] somehow you broke it or the web browser broke it or something
[tbyte] but either way
[tbyte] your text file just completely bypassed all rules of ascii
[msg(tbyte)] hahahahahaha
[tbyte] while sticking COMPLETELY to ascii
[tbyte] you might not realize how monumental this is
[tbyte] but through your hahahaha i think you might
[tbyte] you realize
[tbyte] you cannot end now
[msg(tbyte)] do i get a cookie for this
[tbyte] you have just completely made a farce out of ISO standards
[tbyte] the UN is shaking in their mother-knitted booties
[tbyte] there are cookies to burn, now, gir
[tbyte] since ASCII has fallen
[tbyte] cookies are the least of your concern.
[tbyte] take mine!
[msg(tbyte)]  no way
[tbyte] take my mothers'!
[msg(tbyte)] it's cookies
[tbyte] take my grand mothers, for gods' sake
[tbyte] you can have all the cookies in the world.
[tbyte] you have made standard ascii text stand atop standard ascii text.
[tbyte] that is BOOFOO
[tbyte] it's, in fact, FARNIFULAR and PARSNIFFLERIFFIC

PART II: #ACROMP3 CONVERSATION

<tbyte> LOOK IT'S ASCII ON ASCII
<tbyte> how did they DO THAT?
<tbyte> it's ASCII TEST
<tbyte> TEXT
<tbyte> laid atop of ASCII TEXT
<tbyte> that's PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE
<zhixel> mnan
<zhixel> that's a sin
<zhixel> for ascii to lay with ascii
<tbyte> i know!
<tbyte> it's against ISO rules!
<tbyte> yet somehow, after all these years, ANGSTMONSTER has been able to
        break THROUGH these standards
<tbyte> and bridge into the new millennium.
<zhixel> more like a bridge to perversion

<tbyte> THIS IS MROE MONUMENTAL THAN I MAY LEAD ON
<tbyte> however do to my leadership position of competing zines
<tbyte> and my complete lack of energy
<tbyte> i cannot quite promote this as the event which it is

<girbles> i should just tail irclog > amspr9.txt, "the day we trascended ascii
          barriers"
<tbyte> hahahah elite

<girbles> tbyte
<girbles> give me a name
<girbles> for this special release
<tbyte> what is in it?
<tbyte> i am hideously bad at titles
<girbles> irc logs
<girbles> nm 
<girbles> i'll just use the day we trascended ascii barriers
<tbyte> i would call it something like fat people drive vans but what might be
        more appropriate is "do you encode"
<tbyte> yeah that's good
<tbyte> "VT-100 EAT DUST"
<tbyte> "CRTS EXPLODE"
<tbyte> "WORLD BANK CRUMBLES"
<tbyte> "TIME FOR TRILOBYTE"
<tbyte> "TO GO TO BED"
<tbyte> "IT'S BEEN SURREAL"
<tbyte> "PLEASE HAVE A FINE NIGHT"
<tbyte> "EMAIL TRILOBYTE@HOE.NU IF A SPECIAL ISSUE IS RELEASED SO HE CAN SHED
         A TEAR"
<zhixel> damn.
SignOff tbyte: #acromp3 (EOF of client)
<zhixel> for a bit you were starting on what could be another kmfdm song

PART III: MY THOUGHTS!?

Well, this has to be the coolest thing angstmonster has ever done.  I say 
second because the first coolest thing we ever did was dedicate an entire issue
to sock puppets.  Maybe our run wasn't so bad afterall...
