  212645 < fakeBeige> Looks like somebody managed to finally get a hold of the real EFnet admins via Facebook
  212700 < Bisqwit2> Also looks like the joke is over
  212700 < fakeBeige> and mount a counter-coup

  212719 !!!!eris.Berkeley.EDU Server Terminating. Received   SIGTERM
  212719 !>>> Irssi: Connection lost to eris.berkeley.edu
The joke is over.
