@PrivatePansy Netflix says subtitles, so that's good enough for me

Followed by the image of him selecting "English (CC)" and me asking him what he thinks the CC stands for

technically correct worst correct

oh, didn't see that part

it's still early, my brain isn't at 80& yet

80%

also forgetting that I can edit my posts. definitely not fully awake yet

Sterno

2:08 PM

@KevinvanderVelden and it's under the subtitles section.

Awakeness is overrated

pedantry--

@Kaizerwolf Too much blood in the caffeine stream

@Sterno and it's closed captioning, which is a type of subtitles

@twobugs supply additional sugar

my blood is actually pure liquid drum and bass, but i agree

Sterno

2:09 PM

@KevinvanderVelden so I've been right the whole time! Excellent!

I mean it's more like you both were wrong

Okay, my javascript button binding seems to work for the most part, now I need to make the actual dialogs and code-behind that combine to form the dialog in question

Let's just take a moment to appreciate how incredible it is that Undertale is a game that doesn't have a fanbase at all, just a few cool remixes on youtube

2:21 PM

Yeah, it's pretty amazing that game has no tumblr community or anything

Apparently, I had a tab of images of Trump Toilet Paper open in case I wanted to link one

Okay, I expected someone to take "Yuuki" as a name, but what kind of complete monster would pick up "Yawus"?

@Yuuki a REALLY fervent admirer of Yaweh?

on my end, Nzall was taken, but realNzall wasn't

YUSSSS It worked

i always feel some kind of unbridled rage whenever Kaizerwolf is taken on things

PoGo was out for a day before I got it, and my handle was already taken

2:27 PM

People take fredley on things, e.g. PoGo.

What kind of monster names themselves fredley?

@Kaizerwolf Sounds normal. KaizerWolf is one of those really bland and uninspired names, like PrinceOfEvil

@Nzall Don't be a dick to people.

The hotel I'm staying at is apparently big enough to be a Pokestop.

@Yuuki My office is a Pokéstap, but it's so big I'm actually out of range of it from my desk

@fredley It was not an attack on himself. I'm not sure how making an observation on a name is being a dick.

2:30 PM

there was rare monster from Final Fantasy 12 called the KaiserWolf, and I liked the name so much, but I wanted to be different so I made it a Z instead of an S

ah, like that

and thus my bland name was born

No offense meant, btw @Kaizerwolf

none taken

@fredley Pokéstahp

2:31 PM

can't please everyone ;)

I just pinged myself, how odd

@Yuuki hey

Servers are buggy

Try few times

but seriously, Kaiser is German for Emperor. I'm sure you can see how it might sound edgy to those that don't know the story behind it

for example, those that don't play FF12

I've had a few people in the past think I'm german because of my name, mostly just trolls in multiplayer games

@Kaizerwolf wait, there are non trolls in multiplayer games?

2:35 PM

@arda yeah, there are also tauren, and elves, and dwarves, and German goth kids

sometimes you come across a xXx_420-NOSCoPE$-420_xXx who is pretty chill

but it's very rare

Derpy

@Nzall don't forget the ponies.

@Kaizerwolf In WoW, you have a bunch of Légölàsx

basically, every 3rd night elf hunter has a name that's a variation on it

oh special characters are allowed? that's neat, but it does lead to a stupid amount of variation

there's only so many xXx_420-NOSCoPE$-420_xXx names you can do

It's funny because people with those names are a pain when you're trying to set up like groupwide weakauras

@Kaizerwolf Those are basically 100% of the names on PSN and XBL though, and it's great

It's extremely satisfying to kill someone with a name like that

2:39 PM

oh absolutely

@twobugs you know what's even better? When the hunter decides to name his pet after the maintank and all your DPS end up assisting the pet

it's also funny to see them in games besides CoD and Battlefield. "did you get lost, little fella?"

oh hey a growlithe

@Nzall That's actually amazing

And the healers start healing the pet while the maintank dies in 6 seconds

2:41 PM

Well, I luckily reserved the name Gokunaruto on my server so my Demon hunter will be set

@Kaizerwolf ohhh that's why your name was reminding me something

There also used to be a kinda-exploit in PvP where hunters gave their pets the same name as themselves, which broke many targeting macros and addons

@twobugs I reserved my demon hunter on another realm: Toosoon on Executus

I have a friend with multiple characters of the same class who just have slightly different altcodes in their name

@arda I am beyond excited for the FF12 remaster on ps4...

which then appears in chat as Toosoon-Executus, which is what Ragnaros says when you first see him in Molten Core

2:42 PM

I just blew my nose and it came out of my eye. That was unpleasant.

@fredley you may want to get that checked out, somehow I don't think that's supposed to happen

@Nzall Okay, that's pretty clever

@Kaizerwolf It can happen, sinuses are all connected up

@Kaizerwolf ff12 is good enough with non remastered graphics imo

@fredley will the karma never end?

2:44 PM

@arda absolutely, I've emulated it on my pc and it's damn fine

definitely stands up to modern games in a lot of areas

@KevinvanderVelden karma will continue until morale improves

Meh, FF12 isn't really my thing. I appreciate what they tried to do but it's basically an offline FF11 and I'd just rather play FF11 because that's an amazing game

One of my coworkers is eating lunch already and I'm going to end his life
