Fluffernutter is Karen Ingraffea of IBM; she documented the work done to make the "Watson" AI machine. Ironholds is Oliver Keyes, who was a British university student at the time. This 18 minute fragment has been floating around the Internet for years, and it is possible this was typed at the Wikimania 2011 conference in Haifa, Israel (Keyes mentions a "dull presentation.") What is known is that Fluffernutter later married Courcelles (allegedly "Bradford James Brown" or "Bradley Marshall Brown") in 2013. Mr. Brown appears here as "tyw7."
19:57:22 < tyw7> Ironholds: I think Fluffernutter_ is currently afk
19:57:27 < tyw7> see Fluff|laptop instead
19:57:49 < Ironholds> tyw7: she's sitting next to me and I just slapped her arse

20:00:16 < Fluff|laptop> Ironholds, see, no one believes you when you say that
20:00:17 < Ironholds> but as a general principle, we fuck

20:00:29 < Ironholds> and we kissed in front of him and everythign
20:00:30 < Fluff|laptop> jeremyb practically rolled his eyes

20:01:50 * Fluff|laptop grins
20:01:52 * Courcelles never knows what is erious in this channel. Ever.
20:01:58 < Logan_> erious?
20:02:00 * Fluff|laptop is far too old to be sleeping with Ironholds, let's just say
20:02:39 < Ironholds> Courcelles: we are actually being serious
20:02:47 < Ironholds> oh dear GOD THIS PRESENTATION IS DULL

20:02:59 < ^3^> Oh, nvm
20:03:06 < Fluff|laptop> Ironholds: do you think it will move them along if i make a show of falling asleep on your shoulder?
20:03:10 < Logan_> Ironholds: I thought you quit
20:03:16 < Ironholds> Logan_: quit what?
20:03:19 < Logan_> smoking
20:03:25 < Ironholds> Fluff|laptop: try going BOOOO! GET OFF THE STAGE!
20:03:29 < Peter-C> OMG Ironholds and Fluff|laptop need to get an apartment >:(
20:03:34 * Fluff|laptop looks shifty, suddenly decides she's a smoker if it means i can get out of here for ten minutes
20:03:36 < ^3^> Or a motel.
20:03:36 < Ironholds> Logan_: then I applied for a WMF job and tripled my stress levels
20:03:40 < Logan_> heh.
20:03:41 < Ironholds> Peter-C: we've GOT one. It's hers.
20:03:44 < Fluff|laptop> ^
20:03:49 < Peter-C> :O
20:03:50 < Fluff|laptop> brb
20:03:59 < Peter-C> Fluff|laptop has the dominant role in this relationship
20:04:09 < Logan_> you could have the marriage at the WMF headquarters
20:04:30 < tyw7> Ironholds: are you typing while in the meeting?
20:04:34 < tyw7> Say hi to Jimbo for me

20:10:37 < Fluff|laptop> Ironholds: we should photograph my bruises
20:10:41 < tyw7> Ironholds: who else is there at the meeting?

20:11:29 < NA_0> Bruises? What did I miss?
20:11:40 < tyw7> NA_0: Ironholds pinching and slapping Fluff|laptop
20:11:41 < Fluff|laptop> <_<
20:11:49 < Fluff|laptop> there's been very little pinching
20:12:11 < Fluff|laptop> or slapping, for that matter
20:12:29 < tyw7> and romping... :D
20:13:05 < Ironholds> romping, lots of that
20:13:08 < Fluff|laptop> hee
20:13:10 < Ironholds> Fluffernutter looks like she has hypothermia
20:13:16 < Fluff|laptop> ...?
20:13:37 < Ironholds> all blue
20:13:46 < Fluff|laptop> most of them are yellow and purple at this point
20:13:50 < Fluff|laptop> you've fallen behind
20:13:58 < tyw7> how can you romp in a Wikipedian meeting?
20:14:17 < Fluff|laptop> tyw7: you don't want to know what he just suggested to me in pm
20:14:36 * tyw7 fluffs Fluff|laptop

20:15:27 < p858snake|l_> ironholds has alot of experience in that dept >.>
20:15:43 < Fluff|laptop> the stairwell is very creaky
20:15:56 < Peter-C> p858snake|l_ - giving or reciving?
20:16:08 < Fluff|laptop> also i kissed him on our way up the stairs and he was all "omg why are you touching me ew"
20:16:48 < p858snake|l_> Peter-C: I don't think it matters when you are talking about Ironholds <.<
20:16:53 < Fluff|laptop> lol
20:16:55 < Fluff|laptop> so true
The Internet is indeed run by middle-school kids.
ReplyDeleteIn America; elsewhere it is run by all sorts of authoritarians, or not at all.
DeleteGod, but that is alternately mind-numbingly boring and (since I quite like Ironholds) rather sweet. I'm just wondering why you saw fit to repost this. I mean, people get bored at conferences and they engage in small talk on IRC. And...?
ReplyDeleteWhy repost it? Because we can, before it's deleted (or accidentally lost) like so much of Wikipedia's history from 2001 to 2006.
DeleteWow, she has an *incredibly* boring Flickr account, see ingraffea (user name Karen)
ReplyDeleteI was reading r/WikiInAction which somehow led me to this poor soul's user talk page, where your blog was cited favorably for documenting appalling Admin abuse of non-Admin editors.
Yes, Wikipedia does suck, often quite badly.
I came up with the blog title because nobody critical was being strident about Wikipedia, and as an outsider who was never a part of this world it seemed fitting. I was a lot angrier with Wikipediocracy in 2014 which is why the title includes "(and so do its critics)" - I could drop that bit, but I think it should be a warning to all the Wiki-critics who secretly want to rejoin "The Project" (most critics are ex-Wikipedians) that they aren't as cool as they think they are.
