8:00 PM
Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton
 
he might not have enough white hair on him
and he DOES have the social skills of a thermonuclear device
 
Neither did Obama but he made that up pretty quick all things considered
 
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
 
Local Goomba Union #317. Always march left.
 
And how do we know he doesn't use Just For Men or some shit
 
8:01 PM
I really dislike the fact that she isn't doing much nowadays
Obamas are doing some stuff already
 
the Clintons do have a foundation I think
 
@avery she's probably doing stuff for CGI
 
she's probably back there
 
HEY @YUUKI, YOU'RE A MORON, STOP EATING THESE ALMONDS IF YOU KEEP GETTING A BITTER ONE EVERY FIVE OR SIX.
 
she's not much for self promotion
 
8:03 PM
@Yuuki flagged for being meab to @Yuuki :(
 
@Unionhawk Not being meab, being "alternate nice".
 
@Yuuki what if these were actually skittles
 
The thought of bitter skittles horrifies me
 
exit stage right
 
I mean, actually, trump isn't all that bad. (compared to erdogan)
 
8:04 PM
give him a chance
 
@badp #hehadhischance
 
@avery Erdogan isn't all that bad. (compared to... well f--k, I don't want to Godwin myself so I guess you got me there)
 
give him a chance
 
@Yuuki We're in dire times since Nazis are rebranding themselves
 
@Unionhawk They're not Nazis, they're the "alternate Allies".
Oh wait no, they're the "alternate-zis".
 
8:06 PM
they're "alt-right"s
 
... Alternazis. Yuuki, you horrible genius.
 
Or the rather transparent, though dreaded, "Trump supporter"
 
@avery not to be confused with the "new right", which doesn't want to be associated with white supremacy
 
@MadMAxJr I was actually going for "Nazi" -> "Not zi" -> "alternate zi".
 
oh my god
 
8:08 PM
Since I'm on this whole "alternate <thing>" craze.
 
RE7 is getting good reviews
 
@Yuuki isn't Y the alternate x?
 
in a couple of messages' time we'll be ready for an Arda Xi, Alta Xi meme
 
so brexit is the alternate breturn?
 
Will we be ready?
 
8:08 PM
@badp And then it's just a couple of steps to "Alta-Vista". Good lord.
 
@Unionhawk by saying this at a time when we weren't ready, I'm hoping we can prevent this
 
@Yuuki a nazi on a boat is a yacht-zi
I'm sorry
 
enough is enough
 
I deserved that
 
8:09 PM
@Yuuki You could go with Leopold II in Congo, that was almost Hitler levels of bad. Although killing of 50% of the population might actually be worse in some way.
 
why did I come back to someone else being removed from the room owners?
 
"I want a parade with tanks." "Mr.Trump that will destroy the roads." "But then I'll be making jobs!"
 
@BlueBarren you can fix that by not leaving.
 
@BlueBarren YOU'RE THE PUPPET
 
@BlueBarren alternative fact: He wasn't removed
 
8:10 PM
Room ownership is a meme as old as cats.
 
and as powerful as cats
you try ignoring a cat
 
@MadMAxJr Oh, did you find that? I was debating on whether to link "Trump advisors wanted a Russia/NK-style military march for inauguration day".
 
are our room owners secretly cats?
are they overtly cats?
 
I saw a few articles on the topic, yeah.
 
@badp I am overtly not a cat
 
8:11 PM
He wanted military parade convoys with tanks and MISSILE CARRIERS. The military refused.
 
I don't know about anyone else here
 
@Unionhawk but you're not an RO
 
Now I imagine y'all as anime catgirls
 
@avery Nope
 
@Unionhawk I'm a cool cat.
 
8:12 PM
@avery a beautiful mindcanon, I must protect this
 
While I can admit I tried on robotic cat ears at a con for amusement value, I do not make cat noises.
 
@MadMAxJr Well, I don't know about him in particular, but they did mention an unnamed someone in his planning group.
 
That was everyday slang when I was growing up
 
@badp pin protection best protection
 
Well the reviews of re7 are all overwhelming positive
 
8:12 PM
 
@MadMAxJr wait where are the articles for this
 
@Wipqozn Unlike the reviews of your socks
 
@Sterno Did they even have cats when you were growing up? I thought they hadn't yet domesticated wolves.
 
4 mins ago, by Sterno
RE7 is getting good reviews
 
actual image of @Sterno
 
8:13 PM
@Sterno :(
 
@avery have 2/3rds of a pin
 
Also maybe not a good idea to parade the military through states that voted against you while you have less than 40% approval unless you want to discover americans can make IEDs too.
 
@MadMAxJr are you telling me you don't purr when someone pets you? Because I do
 
@Unionhawk Cat not fat enough
I mean, it's fat. Just not fat enough
 
@avery actually pins + protection = less protection
 
8:14 PM
@GodEmperorDune My bad, unverified but has been discussed. snopes.com/trump-military-inaugural-parade
The comment that the president wanted a 'Soviet' style parade bothers me.
 
inb4 pictures of Trump riding a tiger
 
@MadMAxJr inb4 topless trump rides a white horse bareback, just like his bff
 
@GodEmperorDune based on what has been in RT and others lately, I don't think they're friends anymore
 
> sometimes we can disagree with the facts, but our intention is never to lie.
 
Actually there's edits of him in the shirtless Putin horseriding, right behind him on the horse.
 
8:15 PM
... wat
 
@Fluttershy wat
 
Putin is just knocking on Trumps door, "Do you wanna build a nation?... It doesn't have to be a nation...."
 
@Fluttershy IT'S NOT A LIE WE JUST DISAGREE ON THE FACTS
 
@Arperum Actual words spoken by our press secretary.
 
@Fluttershy this is riding on Facebook's idea that when you scroll past a post you engage with it

Q: How do you enter into Windowed mode form Full Screen mode on Urban Empire?

rs232How do you enter into Windowed mode form Full Screen mode on Urban Empire? There is no option in the Settings menu to do this.

 
Disagreeing on whether or not something is a fact is legit
 
@Fluttershy #ShitSeanSpicerSays
 
@Fluttershy You should fire your government.
 
Unless you're obviously full of bullshit
 
@Sterno In this case the fact in question is "this was the biggest inauguration ever period"
 
8:17 PM
so since they ran an ad on Twitter for the inauguration livestream and I happened to stumble on it before I could block the advertiser and report the ad
 
Which turns out to be obviously bullshit
 
obviously this means I watched the inauguration
 
Maybe we should ask Elon Musk if we can crash on Mars with him for four years. I know he's already got a condo there.
 
@Sterno i mean facts can be cherry picked and otherwise missing context but that does not make them wrong, it makes the interpretation wrong
 
@Fluttershy The intention is never to lie. The intention is to tell alternate facts.
 
8:18 PM
@GodEmperorDune I mean, if I say "I'm cooler than @Wipqozn. FACT." and he says "No, I'm cooler. FACT." one of us is right (me), but I can't prove it.
We all just know.
 
@Sterno I mean, your wife's a doctor so I assume you have access to a rectal thermometer.
 
And additionally is backed up by false supporting claims like "this is the first time ground coverings were used" (they were used in 2013), and "we beat metro ridership of all inaugurations" (they didn't even beat average normal day ridership let alone inauguration 2009)
 
@Yuuki DO I EVER
 
@Sterno OR you're both right and you're using different meanings of the word "cooler"
which happens all the time with Trump and pals
 
@Sterno i mean we all know objectively that @Wipqozn is an uncool hipster, so....
 
8:19 PM
@Unionhawk Oh wow, that last one is particularly bad.
 
in fact, @Wipqozn is cooler than you because he's in an environment that isn't quite as hot as you
 
@badp All politicians, really, but Trump needs to invoke it way more because he says so much stupid shit.
Quick, define "sexual relations"
 
@Sterno it depends on what the definition of is is
 
@Fluttershy While I don't think Spicer or Trump deserve the benefit of the doubt, they've shown that they don't care about facts or reality, I could interpret this sentence in a reasonable way. Not everything that is claimed to be a fact is one, especially with statistics you can arrive at different numbers using different assumptions
 
The fact we all enjoy the hit Rebecca Black song, Friday, is an alternate fact.
 
8:20 PM
@Unionhawk I mean, they could've just said "we beat metro ridership compared to George Washington's inauguration".
 
while you are obviously hippier than @Wipqozn
 
@Yuuki To be fair, he was comparing the wrong numbers, I think. Ridership all day on 1/20/17 was like 575k. Ridership until 11:00am 1/20/2009 was like 375k
 
@MadMAxJr define "enjoy" as "accidentally hover on a link to it"
this is enough to play back the entire song in your head
so by all means you enjoyed the song.
 
Ridership until 11:00am this year was like 170k or so I think
 
to the bussss stop
 
8:21 PM
oohhhhh
 
@Sterno I SEE MY FRIEEEEEEEEEEEENDS
 
@Sterno you just said that in a "burn their house down" potato glados voice
 
And like, yeah most of DC didn't vote for him, but that wasn't their argument. Their argument was "it was the biggest ever"
 
who is fooling around with the starlist
 
It's not me
I would know
 
8:22 PM
How is there not a website yet that makes GladOS sing specific songs?
 
Any mr.robot fans here? Check out imdb.com/title/tt3042408 -- released a year earlier, and has a very similar plot. It's interesting tbh.
 
actual arguments I saw were more like "Obama voters do nothing all day, of course they went in person" (try and say that isn't racist)
 
@badp Well yeah, clearly Obama improved employment numbers.
 
that's always a fun flag to see
 
@Unionhawk oh we were supposed ot validate that?
 
8:24 PM
@Unionhawk yup, heh
 
I invalidated that because I've done that
 
I also invalidated it
 
several times lol
 
@Unionhawk grats
 
3 hours old message, pls
 
8:24 PM
I also invalidated it
 
@Unionhawk in a row?!
 
@avery STARRING SUPERMAN
Oh, wait, that's Tom Welling, not Tom Schilling
 
It's also not aimed at anyone either.
 
@badp Didn't even notice the time
 
@Sterno It has tons of superman quotes though.
 
8:25 PM
We have the worst catgirl banter on the internet.
 
That's nyat true.
 
room topic changed to The Bridge: General Arqade chat, wherein we have the worst catgirl banter on the internet. Period. [jin-fanclub] [lazers] [murder] [-politics] [success] [wrong]
 
@MadMAxJr not always, just right meow
@badp did you really bro?!
 
I often really.
 
He did
 
8:26 PM
@GodEmperorDune Purrhaps you would like to try again later?
 
H1Z1 looks so boring
 
What makes you think I didn't really
because I reallied all right.
 
@Yuuki yeah, when i'm feline better
 
If the question is "did @badp just do that or is he trolling", the answer is always "both"
 
@badp should I get a matching topic for maid cafe?
 
8:27 PM
@avery I can't stop you. I mean, I can, but :effort:
 
@Unionhawk Unless you're asking @badp in which case the answer is "yes".
 
ugh, why does this starlist trolling bother me so much?
 
I was pmuch lazy, so I only got in.
in Maid Café (メイド喫茶), 29 secs ago, by avery

What starlist trolling?

Q: What started the popularity in Minecraft?

DinosaurusA bit of a retarded question, but how? Youtubers? Propaganda? I would really like to know, but I'm not sure haha.

 
8:29 PM
@Sterno someone is going through history and one starring meh things
 
hooray for :effort:
 
@Lazers2.0 Closed as off-topic haha
 
@GodEmperorDune They're good posts Dont
 
@avery the "Welcome back, my Master!" gives it such a creepy vibe
@badp hue
@Lazers2.0 we're supposed to flag slurs, right? rather than edit and remove?
 
@Yuuki that is getting downvoted really fast
 
8:31 PM
@GodEmperorDune is your aim deleting the entire post?
I mean it's a pretty bad post.
 
@badp yeah i figured that's acceptable
 
but I'm giving this guy the benefit of the doubt
 
Ugh that custom off-topic is really bad
 
because I feel charitable
I do believe we don't do historical gaming trivia yes? ...no
 
@Unionhawk yeah
 
8:33 PM
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GAMING"
 
I'm not sure how I feel about "retarded". It seemed like it was right on the edge of falling into "general insult language no longer specific to a medical and/or psychological condition" like "dumb" or "insane" or "stupid", but then it seemed it got pulled back into this weird limbo area.
 
@Yuuki me too tbh
honestly if I knew someone with this mental disease I'd definitely describe it as something else
 
"OCD" is a similar case, I think.
 
but this might be my latin influence speaking
 
Though less further along the track that "retarded" was.
 
8:35 PM
that said
it still bothers people
 
@Yuuki 2 kids, a wife, a turtle, a cat, 2 kittens
 
so.
 
For once, Arqade does not have a weird HNQ. I present Mathematica.SE:

Q: My Girlfriend is going to prison...Save her with Math

Prisoners DilemaSalacious title, but true story. dmethyl1 = { {0, 0}, {.25, 1}, {.5, 7}, {1, 26}, {1.5, 40}, {2, 45}, {2.5, 45}, {3, 44}, {3.5, 44}, {4, 43}, {4.5, 41}, {5, 39}, {6, 38}, {7, 37}, {8, 35}, {9, 33}, ...

 
@GodEmperorDune I've got to agree.
 
@KazWolfe this question bothers me in a lot of different ways
 
8:38 PM
@badp Welcome to Puzzling Arqade Mathematica
 
mathematica.stackexchange.com/a/135989 is an important explanation why the question is bad
 
@avery Otaku culture (and anime culture to a lesser extent) has a lot of things that just feel really cringey looking from the outside in. Being on the periphery for awhile makes me feels somewhat numb to it, but it still feels really weird every now and then.
 
Yes, that's pretty much me.
I'm a RO on Maid cafe and don't mind most stuff when in it, but some stuff does feel weird when outside.
 
> (I have CW'd this in the meantime.)
i don't see what the CW has to do with anything
is that just a mathematica site norm?
 
@avery It's like "I don't think they [otaku in general, not people in Maid Cafe] mean it that way, but some otaku are like really crazy people".
 
8:43 PM
@GodEmperorDune clearly it's to prevent reputation earning
 
And some of their language is kinda wtf, but hey compsci guys talk about "killing orphans" so I don't think we have much ground to stand on.
 
@Yuuki well, to be fair, there are crazy people in every fandom/culture.
 
And yeah, no Bethesda game is complete without a "kill children" mod so...
:|
 
tbf there are probably 23-27 "revealing armor" mods
 
@Unionhawk only 27?
 
8:45 PM
I mean, I dunno
I haven't counted

Q: Retag request: boi-antibirth -> boir-antibirth

VemonusI was reviewing the tag wiki submissions for what I thought was boir-antibirth, but upon closer inspection, was actually boi-antibirth. This is an issue, because the Antibirth mod is specifically for the Binding of Isaac: Rebirth (BoIR), and not for the original Binding of Isaac (BoI). The way ...

 
i'd guess about 1/4 of Nexus.
 
@SepiaLazers :/
 
Yeeeeah
ehhhhhhhhhhhhh
 
tldr is still every fandom/culture/community has those weird ones in it. it's just they tend to surface pretty often in non-mainstream settings.

Q: request: bragging & boasting but all made up of lies

user3306356This is a single word, idiom, phrase, expression request - so basically I'll take anything that fits the bill. Basically I'm trying to translate the Chinese word 吹牛 - which dictionaries will tell you mean to brag & to boast - but it actually also refers to things that are usually all untruths an...

 
@GodEmperorDune bull****
lol
 
11
A: request: bragging & boasting but all made up of lies

giantskinA possible idiom is "trumping [it] up". From Merriam-Webster: Definition of trump up transitive verb 1: to concoct especially with intent to deceive : fabricate, invent 2 archaic: to cite as support for an action or claim

 
@Unionhawk sauce of the hue
 
This particular phrase carries a heavy implied meaning of a fabricated accusation (ie: ...the defendant denied the allegations and dismissed the trumped-up charges as wild exaggerations). — J... 10 hours ago
 
General Arqade chat, wherein we make fun of Donald Trump whenever possible.
 
8:50 PM
@djsmiley2k I mean, 吹牛 is actually surprisingly close to "bulls--t".
 
Which is true. I don't think you would usually say that someone "trumped up" boasts
 
牛 means "cow" or "cattle".
 
That's fair
 
Yeah
 
8:51 PM
And 吹 typically means "to blow" or "to exhale".
 
1+ for me solving stuff
cow excremement then?
 
Though I'm sure we'll have ample opportunity to use the more common meaning of "trumped up" in the coming years
 
@Yuuki so cow farts?
 
This is still terrible catgirl banter. Avery is going to take away our cat privileges.
 
God I love classic simpsons
> President Bush is driving on our lawn. He must be lost.
 
8:52 PM
@GodEmperorDune I mean, I guess that's a fairly good approximation.
 
@Wipqozn Classic simpsons as in W or HW?
 
@MadMAxJr Catgirls are a fundamental human right!
 
.. I have no witty response for that.
I am defeated.
 
@Unionhawk I'm not sure what those words mean, but pre-season 10ish
 
WHICH PRESIDENT BUSH
 
8:53 PM
@Yuuki i ask because "the farting cow" is an armenian idiom
 
Sounds like the worst pub name.
 
Or the best
 
@MadMAxJr the drunken pug is best pub name
 
@GodEmperorDune I imagine cattle (and other livestock) tend to stink no matter they are geographically.
 
@Yuuki pretty much
 
8:56 PM
I guess the only time the idiom might vary is whether livestock is cattle-dominated or other livestock-dominated.
 
@Unionhawk all four
 
counts
 
 
Hmm... if I do a divide-and-conquer method, I'd still have to check for collisions in the center.
 
Nobody told me Jeb won and is the 4th President Bush
somehow
 
8:59 PM
@Yuuki just divide in 3 parts! ezy pzy
 
@Unionhawk The father of jeb
 
ez dev ez lyf
