a 20 oz coke costs less delivered from dominos.com than from UD.
WOw.
Okay
 
@Unionhawk UrbanDictionary does cokes?
 
UD as in University of Dayton
it's $1.59+tax from dominos, 1.85 from a dining hall, AND IT'S NOT EVEN REAL COKE
IT'S ALL FREAKIN PEPSI
 
I just finished the fishing incremental
It didn't take very long
 
@Batophobia I appreciate that you sped up the game, but it like "gallops". Tick 1 is really short, tick 2 is longer, tick 3 is short, tick 4 is longer, etc.
Oh actually it's not that consistent.
 
I know I posted this earlier, but...
I can't stop watching and listening to it
 
11:12 PM
@MBraedley This looks doctored :| I hope it's not, since I really like their 1-take videos, but it just looks that way.
 
@murgatroid99 Yeah that was why I said making it a full game would be kewl, its a neat little concept demo :)
 
So apparently "stay free scrub" is harassment
guess this is harassment too

Q: How did the term 'noob' originate?

Gordon GustafsonThe terms 'n00b', 'nub', and 'newby' are all over gamer culture, but where did they come from? Did someone just decide we need a general word for someone who is unskilled? Is it a corruption of 'new' or some other word?

 
user15026
@memescientist Drop it, please.
 
@StrixVaria As far as I know, it was only recorded at half speed (or more accurately, played back at double speed), and maybe uses some stabilization (unsure of it's optical or digital).
 
user15026
I think we have carried this particular discussion as far as it can go in a civil environment
 
11:13 PM
@MBraedley Ok that might explain the weird stuff I was seeing.
 
@StrixVaria The stop motion effect near the beginning? It's a little odd, but I like it.
 
@MBraedley Yeah it was neat looking, but it just felt off; if it was recorded at half speed though that probably explains why it felt unnatural.
 
And it's home time
 
@StrixVaria Watch the behind the scenes video. They explain why they play it back at double speed.
 
11:31 PM
@Unionhawk are you in one of those weird places that calls all forms of soda "coke?"
 
No
Coke as in actually coca-cola
 
Oh, okay. Just making sure!
 
No, but I am surprised he isn't saying "pop"
 
It is pop
 
Soda is the only correct term.
 
11:31 PM
That is a thing
Nope
 
You silly northerners
 
@Fluttershy This.
 
Pop is the worst thing. Soda is love. Soda is life.
 
@OrigamiRobot What do you call it? Sweet tea? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ahem
 
It's always not dumb when we argue about whose regional dialect is objectively better
 
11:33 PM
@murgatroid99 Of course it is. Because mine is objectively better, so anyone who says otherwise is wrong. It's a wasted argument, really.
 
It's actually always dumb, but at least it's a healthy level of dumb
 
I actually never said "sweet tea" until I moved to the city. Before, I just said "tea"
 
@OrigamiRobot Did you not know the abomination known as 'unsweetened tea' existed?
 
Unsweetened tea is just leaf water.
I don't want to drink autumn.
 
heh. leaf water
 
11:34 PM
I knew, but tea is sweet by default where I am from.
 
@murgatroid99 I misread your sentence. And I can't edit my reply into an appropriate one. Please disregard.
 
If you want unsweet tea, then you can specify.
 
@Fluttershy No, I think you read it correctly. Because it was sarcastic
 
Arguing about regional dialects is more fun than arguing about whether or not to reformat Minecraft crash logs into a more human readable format.
 
Realistically, I never say "soda" either.
 
11:36 PM
Exactly! Healthy levels of dumb.
 
I just say whatever type of soda I'm talking about.
 
I just don't drink soda
 
I do occasionally have to use a generic term to refer to soda.
"What kind of soda do you want?" for example.
 
I can't think of a situation where that is the best way to have that conversation.
 
@StrixVaria the flat one. Plain water will do!
 
11:38 PM
@StrixVaria "What would you like to drink?" probably makes more sense
 
@badp I go through phases where I don't understand why people would need anything more and other phases where I don't like to drink plain water.
 
@StrixVaria thirst?
 
@murgatroid99 I specifically asked the question I just quoted the other day, when determining what kinds of sodas to buy at the store to mix with the various kinds of alcohol we had on hand.
You can go out of your way to avoid words if you want; I don't avoid the word "soda".
 
I feel like I'd have to go out of my way to use it in normal conversation.
 
user15026
Now I want Coke. But only have water in my house unless i use the ice tea mix I have but that is work
 
11:41 PM
You could do what I just did and order a pizza+2 liter of coke
best decision I made all day
 
I should buy stock in drink companies with the amount of beverages I consume.
WHY I AM SO THIRSTY?
 
I am never not thirsty.
 
@Unionhawk I've done this before, where I knew I had food but my lack of soda made ordering a thing.
In college I'd order extra sodas just to make sure I had enough to get me through the rest of the night.
 
@StrixVaria You could have just said "What do you want to mix with?" because some people like things other than sodas.
 
@TimStone I actually was going to order pizza, and got caught by the "Hey, add Coke to your order!"
 
11:43 PM
@OrigamiRobot We had already finished discussing juices.
 
I just don't see the need to separate them when you can cover it all with one question.
 
There was no need. That was just how the conversation unfolded.
 
Though, it's not a topic I ever need to discuss.
 
RIP spleen
 
11:45 PM
To make a point from 10 minutes ago: soda is something you bake with, pop is a sugary, carbonated beverage.
 
@TimStone ...
 
Unless it's diet
 
Not sure if serious
 
user15026
@MBraedley Yes this
 
WOW WHAT AN ASSHOLE
 
11:46 PM
weeeeee i've got to stay up late as night shifts tomorrow for 3 nights
then a day off, then 3 more
(WHY!?!)
 
user15026
I am SO happy I dont have to do that anymore
 
I'm gonna get SO much done that day. Thanks planners. D:
 
@OrigamiRobot Errr
 
@AshleyNunn I really don't mind them, it's just the random day off which makes me laugh.
 
user15026
I hated late nights
 
11:47 PM
They tried to call me in for overtime tonight too but I have no idea how I'm gonna hold up, normally max is 3 nights in ~10 days
 
I can't remember if you're in on that joke!
 
I secretly hope he did that without realizing it and now feels like an asshole
 
It's my job to be in on everything!
 
Why would he feel like an asshole?
It's funny either way, I just don't know whether I'm laughing with him or at him.
 
Fair enough
 
11:49 PM
I thought we were alluding to not needing to have a conversation about alcohol and I was lamenting :P
 
wait
SO is a joke?
 
no u
 
@Frank around?
I'm smashing this tower now... slowly but surely
 
@djsmiley2k For a little bit, yes.
 
@TimStone I was, but spleens have nothing to do with that. Everyone thinks that for some reason.
 
11:50 PM
I don't even know if you know what I'm on about, but now I've got a level 14 DK on F16
 
@djsmiley2k The X-2 tower minigame?
 
Nod
 
And my stupid computer decided to switch to French, for some odd reason.
 
@OrigamiRobot Wait, as in they have nothing to do with that, or nothing to do with you having nothing to do with that?
 
Both?
 
user15026
11:51 PM
@Frank ctrl+shift?
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh.
 
@AshleyNunn Okay, that turns it on, alright.
 
Well now maybe I do feel like an asshole. @Unionhawk is right. I hope we're all happy!
 
As a matter of fact I am happy
 
user15026
@Frank That combo swaps through whatever keyboards you have
 
11:52 PM
@frank was hoping to complete it to night, not sure too though :/
 
@AshleyNunn Huh. I had no idea.
 
I think it's funny.
 
@Unionhawk being right is no laughing matter!
 
I think it's funny that you think it's funny and that @TimStone feels bad.
That's like the ultimate win-win
 
user15026
@Frank I learned because I kept doing it and being SO confused
 
11:53 PM
That does make it extra funny.
Is this a positive feedback loop for you?
 
He's becoming more powerful by the second
 
In other totally-unrelated news, @OrigamiRobot

Q: How long do the bonuses from Focus Spirit last?

YamikuronueI notice that when I kill a lot of guys while powered up from Focus Spirit, a bunch of bonuses are listed on screen, like more rupees or rarer weapon drops. Do those go away when I revert to normal? That doesn't give me long to use it. Or do they stay longer?

 
nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
 
Also, I am currently gaming in the dark because I don't want to hand out candy for the little bit of time I'm still home.
 
11:57 PM
Aww, @TimStone tricked me :(
 
@Frank hahah seems now the kids here only visit houses with decorations outside
 
@OrigamiRobot Actually it was Gearbox, I have no idea why I was offline
 
we were out most of the evening, but i've seen a few go past, all went to next door who weren't answering the door (although they had some pumpkins out) and ignored us, even tho we actually had some sweets rdy
yum.
 
@TimStone Yea, I was set to offline too...
