User:Nemo/Finding

On Finding Nemo.

Well, my nickname is, as you should know by now, "Nemo". I've been using it online since early 1995. Possibly even late 1994.

So guess what sort of a reaction the release of a big publicity film like "Finding Nemo" had on the online communities in which I participate...

And so it begins...(all times given as UTC+1000)

10:35:26 -!- You're now known as nemo
10:35:54 < Katrina> nemo...the fish
10:36:04 < nemo> usually not, however. 
10:36:09 < Katrina> well...the fish was named after meno anyway
10:36:11 < nemo> g'morning Katrina 
10:36:23 < Katrina> nemo too...and good morning, though it be a little late
10:36:31 < nemo> not at all. it's always morning :)
10:37:49 < Katrina> if you say so ;)
10:39:25 < nemo> I insist
10:39:39 * nemo expects to be dragged along to `Finding Nemo` so many times later this year
10:39:54 < Katrina> very well then
10:41:24 < nemo> just wait for all the hybrid movie jokes that come out too. 
10:41:41 < Katrina> would a cookie make it better?
10:41:45 < nemo> "Finding Neo - the story of a hacker lost in the matrix" is probably not too far from someones mind
10:42:02 < Afbc0m> namely mine
10:42:06 < nemo> see. 
10:42:12 * Afbc0m lies through teeth
10:42:12 < mumkin> Katrina: I note that morning is just dawning in India, and across much of central asia right about now
10:42:21 < Afbc0m> i just like to be controversial
10:42:46 < nemo> how about "Bill and Neo's Excellent Matrix"
10:42:47 < Katrina> mumkin: is that so? I know it's 1 in england...but that's all
10:42:54 < nemo> Fri May 30 10:42:54 EST 2003
10:42:57 < nemo> ^^ Australia

10:01:01 <@drdink>      formula and completely unique all at once.
