@LessPop_MoreFizz forever sad
 
Have you all gone drunk with power yet?
 
@Brant Why yes. Yes I have.
 
So, the other day I took my daughter to the bagel store and she points to a sign that says 'We have "pastrami". ' And, she asks me what it says . . . So, I had to try to explain to my 4 year old daughter that the bagel store is pushing a pastrami like substance on an unsuspecting public . . .
All because of bad punctuation.
 
@DavidM You should take her to Katz's so that she knows the difference.
 
2:04 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz She wouldn't eat it anyway.
 
@DavidM Also, if you are ever on Long Island anytime, remind me and I will point you to the Best Bagel Store On The Face Of The Earth, And I Have Been To A Lot of Bagel Stores.
 
@DavidM hand rolled place without a proper name on the corner of Hillside Ave. and Lakeville Rd. in New Hyde Park.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Nice!
 
2:06 AM
My parents moved up to CT, so I don't make it down there much anymore.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I think I've been there! Is it near LIJ?
 
@DavidM Yeah, like 4 blocks up the road from LIJ
Giant fluffy hand rolled bagels
Sooooooo soft and crusty and delicious.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Assuming it's been in business for over 15 years, I've been there!
 
@DavidM Yeah, they've been in business for ~15-20 years I'd say.
 
That place is really good!
I went there for bagels with a coke-head med student with really big boobs . . .
 
They opened in... 1997 according to some googling
Which sounds about right.
 
user15026
2:09 AM
Man, Idina Menzel's voice gives me the chills, every time.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, that's about the right timing.
 
Oh yeah, this is also relevant:
 
@DavidM best fucking bagels.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz My recollection of all that time ago, yes, yes they were.
 
There's a good chance based on this that you were (a resident I assume?) at LIJ at the time that I was working in the hospital gift shop there.
 
2:11 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Volunteer in the ED during the time when I was in college.
Doing some research, etc.
 
I was working in the gift shop restocking the candy shelves.
Like a bored high school student who didn't want to be there.
 
Final Fantasy bosses include SIN and EVIL. What's next? HATE? LOVE? PIZZA?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz For how many years have you graced this Earth?
 
@DavidM 30
 
I graduated from college in 1997, which should be about the same year you entered HS, then?
 
2:14 AM
@DavidM Yup.
HS class of '01.
Entered high school in fall of '96.
 
I don't think the timing works then. I was probably a volunteer there around 1996 or so.
Summer of
Funny thing . . . that girl I went to the bagel store with . . . She and I went to see Trainspotting together. And, her take on it was "Wow, I really want to try heroin!" /missedthepoint.

@DavidM facedesk
 
@AshleyNunn In her defense, she did have REALLY big boobs.

Q: Transfer save game Shadowrun Returns between Android Devices

chubbsondubsI know there have been several similar questions about saved games, but unfortunately they didn't answer this. I have Shadowrun Returns on my phone (bad idea), and I'd like to get the saved game transferred to my tablet. Both are Android. I know this answer says it should be under: Android/d...

 
user15026
@DavidM I dunno, I've always found that there is a point where there is just too much, y'know?
 
2:22 AM
@AshleyNunn I do agree, but these were pleasantly large.
 
user15026
@DavidM Fair enough, I understand then. :P
 
... Yep, I should've actually gone sleeping when I said I would.
 
@FEichinger Ahhhhh . . . the number of times I've said that . . .
 
user15026
@DavidM And thus, proof for what I just said.
 
@AshleyNunn Yes. These were the complete opposite.
 
user15026
@DavidM Okay, I see why you did the thing.
 
@Braiam At least he has a plan . . .
 
user15026
@Braiam Did what I could
 
nice, thanks D:
 
2:29 AM
 
user15026
I can't do a lot, their chat parent site needs to handle most of it
 
is the chat user, tho...
 
user15026
@Braiam Short of bans, I can't do anything to nuke them. The parent site (Anime) needs to do the other stuff. (Chat modding is limited).
 
user15026
They don't have an account here, so my hands are a little tied.
 
@AshleyNunn <Insert S&M joke here>
 
user15026
2:32 AM
@DavidM Not in a fun way. :P
 
@braiam best I can tell you is that our creepy friend has been escalated and is beyond our meager diamond shaped abilities to handle now.
 
I'll never understand the point of trolling sites like that . The effort of opening the accounts isn't worth it.
 
ok, told Shog...
and there's fun on MSO too! D:
 
@AshleyNunn I just came up with the worst knock-knock joke.
 
user15026
@Yuki Oh?
 
2:35 AM
> Knock knock
> "Go away, Anna."
> "Okay, bye."
 
user15026
......
 
user15026
Bad.
 
@AshleyNunn So bad.
 
My kids love the interrupting cow joke
 
@AshleyNunn HAVE YOU WATCHED IT YET?
 
user15026
2:36 AM
@Yuki I AM RIGHT NOW
 
@AshleyNunn YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
 
@AshleyNunn Anyways, back to dinner. Hopefully, you'll be done by the time I'm back and I can post all the Frozen stuff I've been saving.
 
user15026
I have a bout 40 min left :)
 
@AshleyNunn Delete please
 
user15026
2:40 AM
@Ullallulloo Which? The removed ones?
 
user15026
@yuki I don't really like Olaf, he is irritating
 
@AshleyNunn No, the one slightly too old for me to get to.
 
user15026
@Ullallulloo Done
 
Thank you. :)
 
Ugh, even though I know they're unhealthy, I think AriZona Tea is the best soft drink ever.
24 fl. oz. for just $1 is a ridiculous good price.
 
2:47 AM
Yup
 
@Yuki: most soft drinks are, and so, like booze and gunfire, can always be enjoyed in moderation.
 
I only have one every time I make a fuel stop.
Which, considering I wait until my tank is near empty to do so, isn't all that often.
 
 
@Yuki I don't know why the one in the top looks so sad...
 
2:54 AM
How on earth have I never heard of Sea Dracula before just now?
> WELCOME TO ANIMAL CITY! Sea Dracula is a FREE game about dancing animal lawyers created by award winning designers Nick Smith and Jake Richmond!

Q: Is there a way to run a PC Steam game on my Mac

AlexI just replaced my Macbook for an IMac. I saw that they released Splinter Cell Chaos Theory on Steam, complete with MP :-O . It is only for windows however. Is there a way I can run some sort of program or emulator to play this game? My over all computer knowledge is somewhat limited. You might h...

 
@AshleyNunn PRETTY MUCH.
 
user15026
I might have yelled at my TV
 
user15026
well, monitor
 
@AshleyNunn Might?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Also check out Murder Dog
 
3:01 AM
Morning
 
@AshleyNunn By the way, a game you may be interested in was just greenlit.
Kinda tycoonish, and you said you were looking for something in that style recently.
Also looks really nice.
 
@slomegnice this is not the same at all!
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz No, but it's equally nuts.
> This is basically the deepest, most nuance court drama art piece there ever was.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Yeah, I still am :) It looks nice, for sure.
 
user15026
Definitely intrigued.
 
3:04 AM
Also, catdammit got greenlit
happy
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oooh this is a board game.
Now I get what you mean by 'not the same thing at all'
awesome

Q: How Do I Access The Test Gamemode?

EthanBaconGamingI recently purchased The Next Car Game and messed around with a few races and demolition derby's, then I remembered that there is a test game mode that is supposed to come with the full game that has more than the demo. I searched the game but couldn't find it. How do I use the test game mode?

user15026
@Yuki I love that it was her sister that melted her!
 
3:12 AM
@AshleyNunn Yay, you should be done with the movie now!
Wasn't it great?
 
user15026
It was pretty awesome
 
user15026
I like that it was like...not about OMG TRUE WUV but about sisters!
 
@AshleyNunn I know, right?
You can see why the fandom pairing up Elsa and Anna pisses me off now.
 
user15026
It's just a little odd.
 
It's like they completely ignored the entire point of the movie.
Apparently, Sochi will cost more than all the previous Winter Olympics combined. They really didn't get their money's worth...
 
3:16 AM
@Yuki fandoms are weird and do things like that
Blanket statement.
 
user20683
@Yuki Efficiency with money is not known for being a Russian strength.
 
@WorldEngineer There's inefficiency and there's whatever the hell's happening with Sochi.
More than all the previous Winter Olympics combined.
 
The phrase Potemkin villages (an alternative spelling is Potyomkin villages, derived from the , Potyomkinskiye derevni) was originally used to describe a fake village, built only to impress. According to the story, Grigory Potemkin erected fake settlements along the banks of the Dnieper River in order to fool Empress Catherine II during her visit to Crimea in 1787. The phrase is now used, typically in politics and economics, to describe any construction (literal or figurative) built solely to deceive others into thinking that some situation is better than it really is. Some modern histori...
 
Like holy friggin' ****.
 
user20683
@Yuki Is that adjusted for inflation?
 
3:18 AM
@WorldEngineer Not sure. Got it from Tumblr, so probably not.
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer I wouldn't suspect so.
 
Sochi Cultural Center:
 
@AshleyNunn So... Frozen = <3?
 
user15026
Minus Hans, yes
 
user15026
SO MAD.
 
3:24 AM
 
Oh hey, I found something interesting, @AshleyNunn, too bad I can't show it to you because you haven't seen Frozen yet.
Oh wait...
 
user15026
@Yuki Not true!
 
Literal fucking Potemkin Village.
 
3:25 AM
@WorldEngineer Nagano at 14 billion?
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yikes.
 
@Yuki WE CAN MAKE HIM TALL. OR WE CAN MAKE HIM NOT SO TALL.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz and what?
 
3:34 AM
I'm probably going to hate Frozen when I get around to seeing it. <_< Thanks @Yuki. :P
 
@Fluttershy Fine... I'll go over here...
<sits in a corner>
 
@Yuki Don't worry. I was joking. I'll likely forget everything that's ever been said about it by the time it comes out. My memory is awful.
 
@Fluttershy I really like the movie and would hate it if my fanboying prevented anyone from enjoying it.
So by all means, tell me if I'm getting annoying about it, I'll stop.
 
@Yuki You aren't! Not for me, anyway.
 
I've already stopped posting stuff on Facebook and Skype.
You know it's bad when I have to stop posting on Facebook since I never post there.
 
user15026
3:38 AM
I am just surprised I missed the BIG THING while still not tumblr saviouring it
 
@AshleyNunn I am too...
That thing was at Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince-levels of pre-spoiling on Tumblr.
 
user15026
Then again, I've been pretty lax on tumblr for a while now. Got yelled at by too many people, got bored.
 
@AshleyNunn Why'd you get yelled at?
 
user15026
Oh, I liked an author that was too problematic or something.
 
@Yuki Because tumblr.
 
user15026
3:41 AM
@Fluttershy That too.
 
@AshleyNunn ...
Some people...
 
Tumblr is prt awful in its special way.
 
user15026
Lost followers, the whole bit. I was mainly amused.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Amen to that.
 
There is a reason I don't bother.
 
3:45 AM
I only visit Tumblr through links. Don't actually go trawling through that place myself.
Say what you will, there is some pretty good art on Tumblr.
 
G'night, Bridge.
 
@Fluttershy Good night.
 
user15026
@Yuki A lot of it unsourced :(
 
user15026
@Fluttershy Good night
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah, that's the disappointing part. Most of the links I've visited have pointed to the original source though, which is good.
 
3:50 AM
'Original'
 
I had a question about backing up one my digital games. Would that fall under off-topic here (gaming se)?
 
user15026
Original art source, or original person who took the art from somewhere and posted it to tumblr?
 
@AshleyNunn Of the ones I've been linked to, most are actually the original art source.
 
@KernelPanic Like, what to back up or where to back it up?
 
A couple have been taken from Pixiv, but that's usually mentioned in the comments.
 
3:54 AM
@Ullallulloo More specifically, how would I backup a game I purchased, and downloaded from GameStop. If it's possible.
 
@KernelPanic It sounds okay.
 
I made the mistake of buying a game from their digital store, but as it turns out the key (the CD key thing) won't work with Steam. I don't trust GameStop, unless I have a physical copy.
@Ullallulloo Ok, thanks.
What should I put as a tag for game backup though? "technical-issues" maybe?
 
@AshleyNunn Oh, I have a new wallpaper for my phone.
 
hi guys
 
user15026
@spugsley heya :)
 
3:57 AM
hi @spugsley
hmm... going back to my @spugsley cult, if you had a cthulhu-ian title, what would it be?
 
@KernelPanic Maybe ?
I'm not sure.
 
@Ullallulloo I didn't even know there was a tag for that. Cool
 
@KernelPanic There isn't yet. :P
 
Actually there isn't one.
 
user15026
4:00 AM
@Yuki nice :)
 
Ya I noticed just now lol
 
@Yuki I'm open to suggestions :p
 
@Ullallulloo Can you make one please?
 
@KernelPanic Can only create tags on questions.
 
@spugsley In light of your current stomach and intestinal troubles, @SheWhoWaitsBeforeTheToilet
 
4:01 AM
@Ullallulloo Well I get the 300 rep error if I try.
 
General policy for times like that is just tag it with something random and someone will make it after you post.
 
If you say so, sure.
 
@Yuki how about @SheWhoHasOneThousandMouths
because that could also be sexy in a weird way
 
@spugsley @SheOfTheThousandMouths:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
 
4:03 AM
@kernel if the tag you need isn't there, tag it with the game name or platform and somebody will fix it.
 
user15026
@spugsley A very weird way.
 
@AshleyNunn I mean, one thousand mouths could be a good thing
@Yuki :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
 
user15026
@spugsley Possibly, yes
 
@spugsley I mean, what if you won a voucher for a thousand ice cream cones in a raffle or something?
Granted, you might need one thousand hands too...
 
@Yuki oh my ;)
 
4:09 AM
@spugsley @SheOfTheThousandMouths just conjures up images of those doll sculptures I linked this morning

Q: How do I backup my copy of Morrowind GOTY if I bought it via GameStop App?

KernelPanicI bought Morrowind GOTY via GameStop, and then downloaded it via the GameStop App (more information). However I would like to backup my game just in case something happens to GameStop, or if I am unable to access it in the future for whatever reason. If I can, how would I do this?

 
@LessPop_MoreFizz omg I had forgotten.
 
@spugsley Never forget.
 
@spugsley @SheOfTheEndlessDolls
 
4:16 AM
@Yuki @SheWhoPunchesBabies
 
@spugsley Is your baby-punching simply an expression of your dislike for children or have you actually punched a baby before?
 
4:39 AM
@Yuki I just really dislike children
always have
 
@spugsley Ah, it's just that we joke about "baby-punching" so much, I thought it might have been inspired by an actual incident.
 
@Yuki nope :)
I really don't even remember how it got started
 
I am home!
 
user15026
@spugsley And with one of my most favourites!
 
4:43 AM
@spugsley @SheWhoIsInternetFamous
 
user15026

user20683
@spugsley you are also absurdly pretty. is envious of Ian
 
@WorldEngineer :3 omg you are too kind.
 
user15026
@spugsley My boyfriend has a point, though. Totally a thing.
 
My Internet is being poopy, it won't load.
 
4:45 AM
@AshleyNunn :D
@AshleyNunn omg it's not at all creepy!
I know I use myself as a model but I swear it does not creep me out for people to own it. It's my art and it's always been about the art not about me :o
 
user15026
@spugsley Wicked. Then when I get a job (omg someone plz hire meeeee) I want it :D
 
@AshleyNunn YAY!
 
Finally loaded. So pretty. And adorable.
 
I'm ordering prints for my show. It's so hard!
@Yuki thank you :) It's one of my favorites
 
You're so cute there, lying on the ground asleep with your little dreamcatcher.
D'awww...
 
4:48 AM
@Yuki I love that little dream catcher :3
 
Lightning Returns is getting a Tomb Raider costume. Huh.
 
user15026
@spugsley I am still like super jazzed that it is a thing and super sad I cant be there
 
@AshleyNunn I so wish you could. I am going to take lots of pictures and apparently I'm getting interviewed so I can even show you a video!!!
 
@spugsley is becoming Real Life Famous.
 
@Yuki :o
now if only I can make some money while being internet/real world famous
 
user15026
4:51 AM
@spugsley aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
 
@spugsley Well, I heard that if you become Real Life Famous, all sorts of crazy stuff happens. Like people pay you to show up at their parties and stuff.
So, I guess you don't really make money so much as you stop having to pay money to do stuff. Granted, this is all hearsay. Nobody I know is Real Life Famous.
 
@Yuki I would be ok with this
PRINTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
ARGHHHHH
 
@spugsley You should yell at the people and be all, "I'm gonna be Real Life Famous, and then you'll be in trouble!"
Note: Don't actually yell at those people.
 
Developers publishing through Strategy First are apparently getting published by a black hole, since they can't get anything out of it once they get an agreement going with them.
 
@Yuki :p
 
4:57 AM
@Frank That sounds sketchy as ****.
 
@Yuki Yup. And apparently, they have a track record of doing so.
 
Could that company possibly be hoarding those designs and releasing them as their own IPs?
 
@Yuki No, they're publishing them, but good luck contacting them for little things like sales figures and cash they're owed.
 
user15026
@Ktash I just watched that a while ago :)

@Ktash Is it Emperor's New Groove (haven't clicked through yet b/c of slow Internet)?
 
Of course
what else
 
That movie was hilarious.

Q: Adding "all capitals" to the quality filter

FlykSo, the guys over in Charcoal HQ have been working on a Smoke Detector that detects potential spam so it can be flagged quicker. One thing that has been noticed is the number of posts that get raised with an all-caps title. Here are some examples of things that have come through so far today - ...

@thatgirldm sure, what do you need?
 
I've been poking around the FAQs 'n such and I wanted to check here before I posted a game-identification question
since they seem to be quite the source of debate
 
they are indeed
the requirements for them are explained in the game-identification tag wiki
 
8:24 AM
Yep, and if I understand correctly, they require a solid piece of data from the game in question, such as a screenshot, sound clip, etc
 
you stand the best chance of them not being downvoted into oblivion by posting them along with some kind of picture, video, sound, etc
basically, write the perfect question - include absolutely everything you can remember about what you're asking about and make sure there's enough information to work with
 
So my big question is, I have no screenshot, but I have a mock I drew of the game in order to show people (I've been trying to identify this thing for a while). The game is very old, with very basic pixel art, so the mock isn't that complex
but it's still a mock
Is that enough to satisfy the screenshot requirement?
 
no - without something solid from the game it's probably just better to ask in chat
 
Fair enough.
That's why I asked here first :)
 
:)
 
8:26 AM
Is there a good time/chat primetime where I stand the best chance of reaching the most people?
(It's really late in my timezone which means it's either stupid-late or stupid-early for most other timezones)
 
we have a large American userbase, it's probably best asking ~6 hours from now
 
Cool, I will come back then. :) Thanks for the help!
 
well, anywhere between 6 and 12 hours from now since they arrive in groups
 
Heh, I probably won't be awake until at least eight hours from now :)
 
@kalina o/

i want to have updates to my subscribed tags via the app
instead of mail
