So what did you guys do, talk about CHOEgee/CHAWgie half the night? Well, maybe that will help heal his badly bruised ego.
Edit: Of course I know you didn't spend half the time talking about choggie. You spent half the time talking about ant.
...and I gotta say, you all fit my mental images of you perfectly. (NOT!)
Very nice to be able to put faces to names, though. Thanks!
Some serious out of syncness (yeah, that's a word) with the sound at least in the second portion of the video.
Also, there was no character called chogie in Day of the Tentacle, he was called Hoagie. I would have to say, based on spelling, you'd say choggie as choggy, like, erm... man, what's a word that sounds like that? Dunno.
One day there should be one organised for Melbourne, Australia... except, like, it'd probably be just me sitting at a table, alone, with a reserved sign telling everyone 'No, no... I'm using that chair, they're coming a bit later... really... they are'
"We're internet nerds."
Yeah, but I'm sure the patrons of the bar assumed you were just having an Apple board meeting, with Steve Jobs sitting at the head of the table. (That is volumptuous, right?)
Choggie, doggie.

Yeah, the dinner portion of the video is out of sync. That's my fault. I hate freedom and breathing oxygen.
volumptuous looks totally awesome.
Blankfist is getting a tripod for next christmas!
Cheers!
(For the record, there are hoggy's, but I think it's pronounced like a hoagie)
Youdiejoe is an obsessive cameraman.
DarkRowan is clever -- he actually brought a flour sifter to the Sift Up.
Volumptuous has everything to do with volume, and nothing to do with ample, unrestrained pleasures.
DystopianFutureToday has a surprisingly optimistic outlook for the future tomorrow.
Lucky760 can hold a conversation at a urinal.
And Blankfist is most definitely a rapist. He knows all the shortcuts down dark alleys.
What I didn't learn at the Sift Up:
How IssyKitty, hbleusea and Charms were convinced to attend.

Wait aren't you a film maker or something? How's that working out for you?
Oh...
I'm definitely in the Chaw*gie (like 'soggy' sao) camp, but then again I thought 'meme' was 'meh-may' for the longest time, so don't listen to me.
Wow, Volumptuous is fab. LOL
I think you missed the ex-roadie/fluffer, houseless person (with the hat that he didn't make himself) by mere seconds. Maybe we can track him down. How far could he have gone on foot in 24 hrs?
and leave it to blankfist to make it sound like choad.
when they took attendance, this girl would always say there was one kid missing, and she invented the name choggie kendall for this perpetual truant.
the french flag was a nice touch. did you have freedom fries with your meal?
f 1.7? how pedestrian. herr director should have an f1.1 zeiss at all times.
will there be a london sift up??
Hmm, well i've been talking about trying for one for a while now... Probably i'm not the best person for organisational skills though, but i'll do my best if we can make the timing right for everyone
Comedy gold, lol.
in the video there was a moment where he looked like the lovechild of Jeremy Irons and George Clooney (obviously delivered Cesearan)
he'll be thrilled to know he's still a topic of discussion.
and leave it to blankfist to make it sound like choad.
yes, it's pronounced to rhyme with doggie. and no, it's not his real name, or even a nickname in real life. when we spoke on the phone, he explained that it was a joke that some girl in his class used to play on substitute teachers back in highschool.

Wait, you've talked to him on the phone? How did that come to pass? Hope you didn't catch anything!
Great video, I'm already saving money to travel to the London siftup.
It actually is a self-link according to our FAQ, but I think in this case we'll make an executive decision and say it's permissible under the circumstances (not just because it's a SiftUp but esp. because she is a bit player without a speaking roll and is not the writer/director/camerawoman/etc. and will not benefit from the proliferation of the video).
If anyone else would like to argue against this post, officially, I say take it up with SiftBot.
I always thought that DFT was a fetching cat with a hat. Turns out that he is just a man.
How wrong I was.
>> ^LittleRed:
Not to rain on anyone's parade, but how is this not a self-link?
And, I hate all of you.
This is typical liberal bias. The rules don't apply if they're not convenient. Sad to see admins have no backbone. This belongs in a blog, at best.
Sad to see you like to pout so much. (I thought it was just those nasty, biased liberals who were supposed to get so butt-hurt and whine about every little thing, no?)
The posting guidelines have been adjusted to explicitly state what was previously implied. This post does not qualify as a self-link.

I just expect that the rules of this site be enforced fairly. This is similar to a cop who is too proud to admit he's been speeding...well I guess if you can't follow the rules, may as well change them. Like we will see with Hussein boy Obama in the coming months.
Our definition of "self-link" was written (by me) to close any possible loopholes where hit-and-run spammers might try to get their own crappy productions onto the Sift.
This is clearly no such post, and as usual you're using the slightest excuse to cry foul at how terribly you think we run this site. Is there any happiness in your life? I don't think I have ever read a single comment from you in which you seem to experience even a hint of positivity or joy. Of course, for some people, their negativity and lack of joy is their happiness. Is that who you are CaptainPlanet420?
Is it?
Lucky, I demand you stop writing exceptional retorts to his posts, I was doing an amazing job at ignoring everything he wittered til now!

Have you always been that guy? (even off the internets?) There's something beyond socio-political ideals here. You gotta realize you utter stupidity of your existence on a website you abhor; when you can't be clever by pointing out the obvious liberal bias of people's opinions or their videos (it's like me going to Godtube and complaining about their religious bias), you default to being a rule monger to get your way. If that's what it is to be a conservative, you lost my vote. I'll thankfully speak with QuantumMushroom when I want a slice of the right. Take your anarchy elsewhere, you closet-liberal.

sooo tricksy!
If so, your weak spot is found, muahaha. ;-D

^Why didn't you come out, futsin? We always want more.
Pretty brave of all of you to show your faces.
Wish I were there.

There already was one.
Note to trolls: picking on the admin is stupid.
it's pronounced chog-gie as in dog-gie (I looked it up)
Cool, so I was right, it is pronounced like HOAGIE (as in the sammich).
Or as you confirmed, "Git along lil' doggie"!!!!!
Because the only times you see the spelling of doggie like that is when a cowboy says it.
Certainly, you don't mean "doggy" or you'd spell it the normal way.
doggie = western git along
doggy = how much in the window
...now I definitely need to go to the next Siftup. Do you think they'll let me take chains and whipped cream through customs?
>> ^alien_concept:

Well now... if in doubt, send em over previous
If we wanted our faces all over tomorrow's papers...
nose ore electrick ?
Also, there was no character called chogie in Day of the Tentacle, he was called Hoagie.
You are CORRECT sir! And I have lost a notch on my nerd belt....::slinks away::
throbbin you may be better looking but i have the largest genitalea
Too bad it's located on your face.
>> ^gwiz665:
Did anyone ask volumptuos if it was lupus?
Choggie, doggie.
To the completely thick skulled, who obviously DON'T watch House M.D., this is a coy remark that vol looks like House, not that he has fucking lupus.. it's never lupus!
>> ^gwiz665:
Did anyone ask volumptuos if it was lupus?
Choggie, doggie.
Nope. He was making fun of volumptuous' weight. For the record, volumptuous was a great guy, and I cannot abide this sort of back-peddling.
In fact, that you would dare to imply that speak volumes about your lack of character. You disappoint me, sir.

I don't think that is a bad thing
