MetaChat is an informal place for MeFites to touch base and post, discuss and
chatter about topics that may not belong on MetaFilter. Questions? Check the FAQ. Please note: This is important.
IRC is the nearest think I've ever experienced to being in the movie Brazil. I suppose I should be grateful for that, but man it really bugs me that I can't keep up.
Man, nothing like coming home buzzed on margaritas and finding a MeCha post that confuses the shit out of me. I arrived just in time to find an empty IRC party room.
i usually only irc/chatroom chat when i can just chat. at least with a board or blog i can do other things at the same time without being as distracted.
