3:00 PM
@David Oh, you missed a lot
 
Too bad they didn't make enough money...
 
@Adnan Oh?
And holly crap, who's been recruiting, the chat list has the most people i've ever seen..
 
@DavidFreitag Flags brought us here.
 
@DavidFreitag Somebody flagged @Simon, then people from other rooms started to come here
 
this channel doesn't appear to be a pony free zone, so I am here
 
3:02 PM
Mainly the people from The Bridge
 
@kalina I think you fall under
 
why is "people" in italics?
 
@Adnan Somebody flagged him like four times in a row, you mean.
 
mmmm ponies... appropriate in just about no situation... ever...?
 
@DavidFreitag Now now.
 
3:03 PM
@MichaelDunfield Really? I only flagged him once, apparently others joined the fun
 
@Adnan "somebody abusively flagged one of your users enough time to gain interest from the rest of the network"
 
@Adnan Yeah, we saw like four separate flags in a row.
 
@DavidFreitag Whoooa! Dude!
 
@DavidFreitag ponies are awesome
 
@Adnan It was a joke, calm down.
 
3:04 PM
this channel has become 20% more awesome since I entered
 
@kalina I concur.
 
18%, I think you'll find
 
@RoryAlsop I make it 19.7%, which as anybody will tell you, rounds up neatly to 20
 
@RoryAlsop 16%. We worship power of twos in here.
 
the 2 goes to the Big Bear as an offering
I think Bears might eat Ponies... just saying....
 
3:05 PM
@RoryAlsop That's.. weird.
 
I can fly, ground dwellers don't bother me
 
3 mins ago, by Terry Chia
@kalina I think you fall under
 
hahahahaha
 
Wait, they can fly?
ಠ_ಠ
 
Flying bears??
 
3:06 PM
@kalina Bears can fly, too
 
er... no
 
Also, why isn't in our topic list?
 
@TerryChia ?
 
why isn't in your topic list?
 
@kalina Counterpoint, how is is more ridiculous than a horse with wings and a rainbow coloured mane?
 
3:07 PM
@kalina and shoot lasers at the same time
 
@MichaelDunfield pony
@Adnan I'm immune to lasers
 
@kalina whatever
 
@Powerlord I think fall under
 
@Adnan Amazing
 
@kalina With the power of friendship and rainbows?
 
3:08 PM
@Adnan just friendship, rainbows is another thing entirely
 
That reminds me - weren't we to get the Lion changed to a Bear with our new logo?
 
Oct 4 at 9:01, by Adnan
With the power of friendship and sunshine nothing is impossible.
 
@RoryAlsop I like the lion.
 
@TerryChia Likewise, falls under . So does .
 
(me too, but shhhhh)
 
3:08 PM
I don't like your logo at all
 
you'll wake the bear
 
don't tell Jin though, I like Jin
 
@Powerlord Indeed.
 
@kalina I don't like your face!!!
Don't speak ill of our logo!
 
@Adnan my face doesn't care if you like it or not
 
3:09 PM
@Adnan Oh snap.
 
@kalina Oh yeah? Well, na na na boo boo boo
 
@kalina It's better than the gaming one, if I'm honest.
 
The logo made me think "Glory to Arstozka!"
 
@MichaelDunfield Skeptics one is the worst.
 
Just too damn yellow
 
3:12 PM
:11574603 Neither. I just know that almost every single chat flag I see comes from that chat room. I make no judgement calls, hell I don't even read them anymore. I just reflexively invalidate them these days to clear the queueueueue.
 
@ScottPack That reply didn't seem to work... I just assume it's to something about the Christianity and/or Islam chat.
 
@Powerlord Nah, it was a reply to a deleted message. At first it pulled in @MichaelDunfield's name, then it seems to have refreshed again to not. Lame.
 
@RoryAlsop The Bear is too busy being appalled at the display of turbulent youth to be awakened.
 
@MichaelDunfield you're a traitor!
@TerryChia I think one of the nicest designs is actually Christianity.
I would never sign up to that though
 
@kalina Yeah, that one is pretty cool.
 
3:15 PM
me around religious people always ends badly
 
@kalina Too Monty Python.
 
I like the travel design the best, I think.
 
@MichaelDunfield Now I want a donut.
 
I take my atheism from Douglas Adams so I don't want to offend religious types - hence I avoid those sites.
 
@MichaelDunfield TRIPLE CHICKEN
 
3:16 PM
Travel is good, and the Physics sombrero pleases me
 
@TerryChia RE: HealthCare.gov and Backbone - This is an interesting article on how they botched it. wekeroad.com/2013/10/07/…
 
@GraceNote Thanks, you've ruined it for me forever.
 
@RoryAlsop Same here. I try not to convert people to non-belief so I expect turnaround in kind.
 
The Arqade just reminds me of Arcadia for the Zx Spectrum - and the sound effects are in my head
 
@MichaelDunfield I aim to please. ♪
 
3:17 PM
@RoryAlsop I find the whole idea of millions of people following fiction like it's spiritual as hilarious
 
@kalina Twilight.
 
Jul 11 at 13:54, by Rory Alsop
@paste - I aim to pleasure
 
@RoryAlsop and I have no inhibitions in pointing it out to them
hence, completely incompatible
 
It would be more hilarious if they were following my fiction and making me rich! @kalina
 
Jehovah's witnesses are hilarious
I invite them in, lock the doors, and then ask them awkward questions
 
3:18 PM
@Adnan @RoryA needs his own idiom.
 
@Grace - I always read your signature note as 'toot' - not sure why, but it amuses me
 
@kalina Not when they knock on your door at 09:00
 
@Xander Interesting...
 
@kalina Door locks on houses/apartments in England stop people from getting out?
 
My piano teacher had her doorbell wired up to a light switch. She would flip it off when she saw people coming to the door that she didn't want to talk to.
 
3:18 PM
@Powerlord Probably a specially made door.
 
@kalina - my dad used to let them stand on the doorstep in the rain, while he encouraged them to talk - from the comfort of the warm hall, with a cup of tea, just to see how long they would last
 
I usually tell them I'm Jewish, they don't talk much after I say that.
 
@Adnan if they knock on my door at 9am, that means they've woken me up, I still answer the door but I immediately set fire to them
 
@Powerlord Double keyed deadbolts.
 
@Powerlord depends on the type of lock, if I lock my doors, the only way out is breaking glass
 
3:19 PM
@ScottPack Sounds like a safety hazard
fire hazard specifically.
 
@Powerlord I agree, though in some places home insurance companies demand them.
My old house had them, and that was one of the first things I replaced because I was tired of looking at the key always sitting in the core.
 
hm? If you look a door, it's locked
 
@CodesInChaos I just looked mine, it's still open.
 
never seen a different kind of main door here
 
@CodesInChaos This kind can be opened from the inside without a key
 
3:22 PM
(backdoors or those to a balcony which don't have a lock are different of course)
 
our insurance requires a double locking deadbolt, with bars that pop out all sides - despite the fact that we are in an incredibly safe quiet suburb
 
This kind can't be
 
And all windows require a keyed lock as well
 
3:22 PM
@RoryAlsop Like, from a train horn? I think that's cute, actually, and amusingly fitting to some extents.
 
99% of doors in Finland have the same Abloy lock.
 
when our door isn't locked, it can be opened from the inside without key, but requires one from the outside
but when it's locked, it requires one from both
 
@Grace - like a very small, kazoo sized train horn :-)
 
No idea why I said that
 
I usually keep the key in the lock while I lock it overnight
 
3:23 PM
Suddenly I want to have a cannon affixed with a train horn now.
 
@Adnan Those are weird looking keys.
 
that way one doesn't have to search for the key in case of emergency
 
hahahahaha - to warn of impending doom, or that just fires a noise rather than a cannonball @Grace
that reminds me - there was video of some sort of sonic cannon that could disrupt clouds
 
@RoryAlsop I think of it as more a thing to make a snide gloat sound after impact.
 
most amazing noise
 
3:25 PM
@ScottPack Indeed. But they're extremely difficult to pick, so that's pretty neat.
 
@Adnan Medeco is similar.
 
@ScottPack Not at all. They have a completely different mechanism
 
@RoryAlsop I found this in my attic. I'm debating whether I want to wire it up and see what it sounds like. i.imgur.com/rogCaaJ.jpg
@Adnan Sorry, I meant similar in that they use a weird tumbler design to become difficult to pick.
 
@Scott - AhhhhoooOOOOOOooogggaaaaaaaa
Is it just a standard outdoor speaker cone?
use it on your hifi, for those high notes :-)
 
@RoryAlsop That's one of the bullhorns hooked up to the old alarm system. That points out the gable vent towards my neighbor. The other one is underneath the floor, pointing up, in my living room.
 
3:27 PM
Play Metaltech through it
Pointing up???
 
yeah
 
@RoryAlsop Interestingly insurance at the new place was ~50% the cost of Livi..
 
that would scare the living bejeezus out of a burglar
 
No. Kidding.
 
@ScottPack Yeah, Medeco has that little side bar. Makes it difficult as well
 
3:28 PM
On another note OMGWTFBBQ happened in here?
 
@RoryM - that's surely because of the Claymores round the perimeter
@RoryM - I missed most of it :-( Bloody iPad
we got swamped - I think that is the correct term
 
@RoryAlsop ooh hadn't thought of that.. although had considered setting up a Crossbow range in the garden :)
 
it's okay - we can all blame @Adnan and @Simon
 
@RoryAlsop so same old, same old then :op
whippersnappers causing trouble
 
I regret nothing.
 
3:29 PM
@RoryAlsop Also Magrunner
 
but on the upside I have a new list of gaming bundles from @Michael, and a new sound effect for @Grace
 
@Adnan My undergrad university was an all Medeco shop. That was an interesting surprise when I got issued my dorm key.
 
and Magrunner...
 
on new games Warlock 2 got announced (for those who like 4X games and thought master of magic was the bomb)
 
So, @Adnan why did we flag @Simon? For funzies?
 
3:30 PM
@RoryAlsop Lol. Inverto is a lot cheaper... it's like $4 right now. And the price will be going up with the next update.
 
oooh - and can I get it on Steam? yes?
logging into my steam app on my phone to try and do that now
 
@RoryAlsop It's not on Steam yet unfortunately, but if you buy it now you will get a Steam copy when it gets greenlit.
 
As I am such a fan of tech and gadgets, you'd be amused that I'm sitting here with post-it notes with games I must look at/purchase stuch to my ipad...
 
Humble Bundles are always so tempting...and I end up buying them every time
Half the games I haven't even installed yet ..okay, more like 80%
 
3:34 PM
Humble only really features high-profile indie games now.
Which is great if you're not super into the indie game scene.
It's like indies for people who don't like indies.
 
@NathanC I'm exactly the same
I buy every single one and I've played maybe 5-6 games out of the 100s I've bought that way
and nearly all of those are on my phone
 
I'm gonna try shifting my blog from Wordpress over to Jekyll this weekends. I'm sleepy so is this a stupid idea? :P
 
I'm still waiting for Elite Dangerous - signed up for one of the bigger pledges (mostly because I liked the t-shirt) but I'm getting very twitchy. Want it nao!
 
I bought the PC FFVII because I was always a fan of it on the PSX...and it was $7
lol
 
@RoryAlsop That one looked pretty excellent.
 
3:36 PM
@RoryAlsop I pledged on this too, I should get an email at some point soonish with beta details
 
Not yet - but that is added to my list for this evening :-)
 
@RoryAlsop Also Zigfrak
It was on sale a bit ago for like $2, you missed it.
 
@MichaelDunfield Humble features only high-profile games. Which is to say not all the games they have are Indie.
 
@Powerlord I was referring to the Humble Indie Bundles, but yes.
@RoryAlsop Miner Wars 2081
 
3:42 PM
@MichaelDunfield They just call them Humble Bundles, not Humble Indie Bundles.
 
@Powerlord They still call the indie ones Humble Indie Bundles.
Unless they've done away with that
 
@MichaelDunfield I tried out miner wars...i couldn't figure it out.
 
@NathanC Yeah, same for me. I preordered it too. Not a fan of the always-online DRM
 
@MichaelDunfield I think they still do that.
 
@DavidFreitag His message was about flags, so I thought "why not".
 
3:51 PM
@Adnan For future reference, everybody on the network with 10k rep can see those.
 
@MichaelDunfield sigh everybody knows that
 
@Adnan Heh, that's like saying his message was about guns, so i shot him a couple times and thought, "why not"
 
@Adnan Alright. But what you just said made it sound like you didn't so I was making sure.
 
What is this nonsense?
"QOTW Author Selection"
 
@DavidFreitag Well, @Simon is gonna kill himself one of these days, so what difference does that make?
 
3:53 PM
Haaah, oh. Revenge!
 
@kalina Blogolopyse.
 
Everyone on the Bridge who came here is now subject to chat event announcements for a whole 30 days.
5
 
hahahahahahha
 
Suckers.
 
Haha.
 
3:53 PM
@ScottPack ewww
 
@GraceNote Hahahaha
 
we have infected them all
 
What do you think, guys? Should we make a few more events?
 
You guys are the worst.
 
It reminds me of some movie
 
3:54 PM
@ScottPack One per hour sounds good to me
 
@ScottPack I feel committed to events now.
 
@GraceNote hahahahaha
 
@ScottPack Yup, let's plan on discussing some matters, tomorrow
 
I sense a major flag war coming on, both sides will lose horribly
 
@Adnan I never said anything about killing him, only shooting him repeatedly.
@kalina Not if @ManishEarth has anything to say about it...
 
3:55 PM
@DavidFreitag Well, @Simon is a masochist, so he'd enjoy that as well.
 
@Adnan 'xactly.
 
@kalina Nah, I just mark all flags as invalid without entering the room. It's cool.
 
MMMM masochism.
 
@kalina We're better than that, bigger than that, less American than that.
 
@Adnan oh wait, you're not an American?
 
3:55 PM
'MERICA
 
@kalina Ewww
 
I LIEK YOU GUYS MORE THAN ANYBODY EVAR ALL OF A SUDDENS
 
@kalina Pfft, who's american nowadays?
 
I'm Canadian.
 
Another Canadian!
 
3:56 PM
@MichaelDunfield LOL A CANADIAN.
 
@MichaelDunfield @Simon, here's a friend.
 
You ruined it.
 
(I'm not)
 
Canadian, eh?
 
@kalina We like you to, grony!
 
3:57 PM
what the hell is a grony
 
Oh lawd, he's from Ottawa.
 
@kalina Bro+Pony = Bronie. Girl+Pony=Grony.
 
@MichaelDunfield You haven't apologized once since you came in here. You can't be Canadian.
 
@Adnan where does the R come from?
@ScottPack he doesn't display that trait
 
@ScottPack HAH. Actually I apologize a lot, I just haven't been in here very long.
 
3:57 PM
@kalina G i r l
 
@Adnan that doesn't work
 
@MichaelDunfield Let's go get some Timbits and bacon, eh?
 
@kalina It totally works.
 
@MichaelDunfield Sounds like an STI
 
3:58 PM
@ScottPack Dude, timbits are the shit.
 
@ScottPack Timbits are the shit. I am surprised you know what those are.
 
@kalina Works for me
 
@Simon Don't I know it, bro.
 
@Adnan also, female MLP fans outside of the target demographic are called pegasisters
 
@Adnan Subaru Technica International? Yup.
 
3:58 PM
@MichaelDunfield We have lots of Tim Horton's around here.
 
@MichaelDunfield everybody knows about Tim Hortons
 
@Simon Sexuall Transimmted Infection. Yup
 
my time in Canada consisted of wake up > Tim Horton's > marijuana
 
I guess they've started moving into the States.
 
@Adnan - I'm with my Scooby Bro, @Simon
 
3:59 PM
@kalina Sounds about right.
 
I couldn't believe you guys have drive through coffee
that's beyond incredible
 
Canada is the best!!!!11!!
 
the closest we get to drive through coffee is mcdonalds
