The Bridge

Hmmm. Need to kill two hours before the day gets exciting.

What should I do for two hours.

@AshleyNunn Imperial stout

@Unionhawk I agree that you need something with body, but I think you'd also want to go a bit hoppier. Something like a strong DIPA with a heavy malt backbone.

I propose a hammer to the skull

That will knock you out

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm getting a haircut and a manicure and a pedicure like a fancy person.

5:11 PM

@AshleyNunn that sounds like a good way to prepare for excitement.

I am debating whether I want to make more coffee

On the one hand, it was delicious and more coffee would be more delicious and I like delicious beverages.

On the other hand I tend to make my coffee very strong and I am already on the edge of jittery and more coffee will make me into a total mess I suspect.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz if I had that much caffeine I would be bouncing all off the walls

@LessPop_MoreFizz maybe like a black ipa or a happy porter then

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz I thought so. Decided I needed some happy relaxation time.

It also depends on the seasoning

@LessPop_MoreFizz I just drank a Redbull and then my fiancee brought me a 32 ounce Coke from Wawa for some reason that I must now drink because I refuse to waste soda

This should be fun

user15026

5:16 PM

@TimStone I'd be dead I think.

I had some coffee this morning too but that was many hours ago

This is unfortunately a not-abnormal amount of caffeine for me but usually it's not quite so back-to-back

I drank a quart of coffee a few weeks back. That was a fun day.

@TimStone 32 oz is the best size

@Unionhawk yeah, a black IPA would work. Though I think a normal IPA with some darker malts is still the better choice.

@TimStone there is a Wawa across the highway from me. I am tempted to go there for a sammich.

om nom

5:20 PM

@LessPop_MoreFizz do you have today off?

This actually brings up the good question of why she even went to Wawa, hmm

user15026

What is a Wawa?

@AshleyNunn supermarket, iirc

@AshleyNunn Uhhhhhhh. Hrm

It's a gas station/minimart

But I'm trying to remember if there's a Canadian equivalent

oh nvm, thats even worse

user15026

5:21 PM

Like a 7-11?

Yeah, or a Macs, I guess?

@AshleyNunn yes but with actual good food/made to order sandwiches.

Right, that

user15026

Oh, okay that makes sense

Luckily we're in the sweet spot where Royal Farms and Wawa coexist

Royal Farms chicken will likely kill me one day

5:26 PM

Rofo is not good.

I am presently in the Sheetz/Wawa overlap zone. Which is truly dangerous.

I'm partial to terrible food, I'm sorry

3

I do actually feel disgusted with myself after eating Rofo chicken

But it still happens sometimes. I also like dipping the rolls into the jalapeno nacho cheese because I am shameless

@TimStone I'm like that too

5:36 PM

Cool now I'm getting harassed in Overwatch! I'm glad every game's community is cancer

@twobugs Just report the people and move on.

@twobugs This is why I have such a hard time dropping money on games where MP is the biggest factor. Just stressful to even have to deal with that. :/

@Wipqozn waait

@twobugs starred for the second sentence, not the first.

THERE IS REPORTING?

OOOH that makes sense

(y'know why I was banned in chat and stuff)

5:37 PM

@twobugs I think you can do a "avoid this player" thing too, where you can avoid specific players. It'll try to avoid putting you into games with them, if possible.

@ardaozkal No one really wants to listen to you complain about being banned from chat

@Wipqozn whoosh

No, there's no whoosh.

@Wipqozn is it bad that I presume everyone just does this?

May 7 at 15:46, by Evil ardaozkal

@twobugs we actually did a trolling session yesterday. acted like 10yo cod players (mom jokes + my uncle is gaben he ban u etc).

.... you are a prat.

3

:/

5:39 PM

@djsmiley2k I haven't done it yet. I've just reported the few toxic players I've come across.

lol thaks for the star XD

@Wipqozn i do it in every game I have problems with

I keep forgetting the avoid button exists, but I think you can also just mute people

I think the system may work better if everyone did, but no way of enforcing that :/

oh right voice comms

heh i'm always in a party chat

tbh I haven't had much problem with toxic players in overwatch so far

very rare to hear anyone on consoles these days, other than on the 'big' shooters

cod, etc

5:40 PM

TF2 could be bad, but I'd just mute the players.

I used to love chatting to randoms in GoW1/2

then party chat came along and spoilt everything

Not suire if overwatch has a match voice chat

avoid should probably be only used on people that feed

...

avoid should be used on anyone you want to avoid.

well yeah. But that is why I'd expect people to set people to avoid. trolling on chat should pmuch be used as mute

5:43 PM

I don't see how that can be misunderstood

and avoid...

I don't want to be playing with people who spend more time trying to smack talk instead of actually playing the game

yeah

obviously theres some exclusions to this, such as poker games

where smack is part of the game.

A Hanzo tried to shit talk me for not doing enough when I was practicing as Tracer

Of course, this is right after he COMPLETELY MISSED his ultimate

So I said "haha lol nice ult hanzo ;)"

He was upset

@twobugs I wonder if this will get worse or better in quickplay after ranked comes out. Folks complaining, that is

because logically, it should get a lot bettter. Quick play is where you go to practice. But people are dumb, and I'm sure they'll complain just as much.

Amplify your salt

5:47 PM

I don't talk shit to people in public games. If someone is going to be an asshat? I'll make fun of them. But even if someone is worthless I'm not going to talk shit

Last night we had a random Reinhardt who really wanted to be aggressive Reinhardt

I gave him advice to stick with the team. I don't think he listened but whatever

@twobugs i'll talk twice the amount of shit to make up for you

and people seem to be expecting way too much out of a game that's been out f aweek. Some people are just assholes. Folks were trash talking in beta too. Personally I'll sit back and bitch behind the scenes, but I don't start trashing the players.

Realise your talkativity

@GodEmperorDune I don't think you even accepted my bnet friend request

This is why group chat is a thing over team

5:50 PM

Also people who try to trash talk at the end of a public game are scum

Wow, you pubstomped! Great job! Nobody cares

@twobugs "umad?"

@twobugs crap let me rectify that

@GnomeSlice Am I mad that people intentionally try to make communities worse? Yes.

@twobugs are you rassium or retrosaur?

Rassium

I'm deeply insulted by the mere question

5:53 PM

@twobugs Yeah i hate it when thry say that

Oh I thought you were trolling me

Carry on

Also lol at when i beat someone in brawlhalla and they tell me how garbage i am

@twobugs i had two friend requests pending, i didn'tknow if you were being ironic

Like youre worse than garbage in that case

anyway i accepted friend request @twobugs

5:54 PM

There's a really funny correlation between talking shit and getting hit

5

once i get a comp that can run overwatch i will commence shit talking

On defense this one guy whose name was in alternating caps kept saying "LOL U KIDS CANT DEAL WITH THIS"

Then we were defending we stomped him

I don't remember exactly what I said to him but it was a deal related quip

@twobugs oh yes i shit talk the most when i am quite bad

I know for a fact it wasn't funny enough to be a "deal or no deal" reference

Since when is that a valid refrance

I cannot allow Deal or No Deal to be a refrance

5:56 PM

When is it not a valid reference?

Hrm, I wish things would warn me when they're about to use DHL for shipping and let me pay more for that to not happen

@twobugs for starters when it isn't Deal or No Deal

@TimStone don't hate, lol

We should make Press Your Luck references instead

that can't possibly be what the refrance

@TimStone I will accept this

especially when talking randomness

5:58 PM

@GodEmperorDune Having something delivered to USPS to bring it to me is the worst possible model and I will gladly pay to avoid it :P

@GnomeSlice it is like how it is in CSGO

All your team dies, only you live, and they call you noob.

@TimStone no it was an explanation of the acronym. i agree that DHL is terrible

Oh, lol

uuugh you died before me? If I'm noob then you didn't even start playing.

It seems that once you have built a colony ship, there seems to be no way to check which species it transports from clicking on the ship. This isn't a problem early in the game, when you have just your starting species, but later, you build lots of colony ships in lots of places, and it's be nice...

if you feel that being banned for youtube thumbnails is silly -- and I do think it is, to a point -- then maybe you want to make that argument, instead of seeking for vendetta :)

@GnomeSlice I get why you're frustrated, I really do, but people aren't just picking on you or singling you out when they ask you to put stuff behind NSFW warnings. There are times when some folks post stuff which should be labeled, isn't, and don't get a warning, and that's shitty. However i's not because folks are just trying to pick on you, it's just depends on who is on the room at the time stuff is posted.

@GnomeSlice I also get that there are times (like that lesspop post) where you think something should be labeled, and everyone disagrees, and you don't get why. It's tricky to know what' SFW and not, since it depends a lot on where you work. Generally, though, text really isn't a big deal unless it's huge and flashing. Visual NSFW is what people are mostly concerned about.

@GnomeSlice A lot of it is just a case of "if someone walked by your desk, and saw what was on your screen out of the corner of their eye, would it cause a problem?".

Also I need to go home. Later all.

@GnomeSlice if people are moaning about nsfw, that means they are at least clicking your links

Hey @badp Are you ready for today to get more interesting?

I'm shitposting a lot more in twitter lately. My daily follower rate increased x4.

Twitter is a good place to shitpost.

6:47 PM

@ardaozkal yey spambots

@djsmiley2k probably, yeah. I think that they just use the realtime api and follow people from there.

yup

or if they're really naughty/clever, they have access to the firehose

@LessPop_MoreFizz UHF <3

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm ready.

6:57 PM

:/

did someone ping me then remove it? :/

No, it's still there

like 8 messages up

@AshleyNunn I wonder if I have time to go get some adult beverages before the afternoons entertainments begin.

I mean, worst case scenario I can always grab a sixpack from the 7-11 downstairs in under five minutes.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm right beside the LCBO, I just might.

@LessPop_MoreFizz not really

What are we getting ready for?

7:03 PM

Well I was going to go home

but then it started to rain very hard

Oh

and the Dutch say lol umbrellas

Never mind, I already know now

so I don't have one

and my trousers after completely soaked now

and I only made it fifteen metres out of the office

Unacceptable, @KevinvanderVelden

I have an umbrella

user15026

7:06 PM

That was me the other day but on the way to work.

@KevinvanderVelden lies

Umbrellas are basically a mark of shame among the Dutch

Nope, I have like 2 or 3

@badp 50 minutes is probably enough time for them to dry, just stand in a really warm place

@TimStone I'm still standing in them

Are you near a kruidvat or something? They have them

7:10 PM

@badp If your trousers are both wet and warm you may have a different problem

Right now I have a beer

It seems to have helped

@TimStone I'm not going trousersless

But then they'll get wet!

I still think it's funny that if you go to report a page on Facebook, one of the options is simply "Gamer." https://t.co/7YRq5XonqP

I find that setting up a turret near a wall and mostly repairing it while hiding from enemies is a viable (while extremely cheesy) tactic. However, should I try to support my turret with my rivet gun to get more damage or is it most efficient to keep my turret up at all times to maximize it's sin...

7:15 PM

@TimStone Nope

But how many people like me will check, or how many will just blindly retweet?

7:32 PM

@TimStone Mondays aren't so bad after all, eh?

►

Mondays are still the worst

but not as the worst as mornings

mornings are the worstest

@badp This Monday is a special Monday though. We 'murricans don't have to work on this monday!

Instead we are merely expected to apply fire to meat, and imbibe heavily.

right so you had an extra Friday again and tomorrow's going to be Monday

and you might skip a Thursday because honestly who cares about Thursdays

@badp Thursdays are cool and good.

Tuesday can get fucked though

It is just Monday Part 2.

then we have reached a reasonable compromise

aren't things great when you're mods and you can just settle an argument in one minute flat

7:43 PM

It really is nice that all of us mods get along and agree with each other all the time.

And the Mets are about to win a baseball game!

They might even do it in the next few minutes! That would also be cool and good.

like imagine the same discussion with @twobugs. We'd be arguing about Dimanches right now probably

@Sterno would have posted Friday seventeen times

@Wipqozn would be extremely unreasonable and generally the terriworstest and he'd me make me deowner him

and then @Frank would flip the fuck out and @Unionhawk would probably say something completely unrelated in the hopes that badpai notices him

@Fluttershy would try to work in a meime in and @GnomeSlice would be rolling his eyes at seven hundred rpms

WOOOOOO. METS WIN.

@badp ... You have thought this scenario through in great detail.

@Brant would peek in, look around, turn over, pick up his cloak back and leave

@KevinvanderVelden would be waiting for the next HL3 joke while @Arperum radios in from his Belgian Resistance Bunker

@GodEmperorDune in the meanwhile would probably pick his nose or something to be honest I still don't know why his avatar is a huge nose. Also he'd borrow some of my memes I guess. I have memes I have the best memes

Those that I've left out would probably be no less ridiculous about it for it, and also slightly annoyed

but I'm sorry @Yuuki I am afraid you're the weakest kek. (Insert food picture here)

Like if you think about who the kek overlords are I would probably be pretty content with that

SIETE!

we don't speak of the kek overlords

you know who you are and we know too
