The Screening Room

Rand al'Thor

00:00

@ChristianRau Oh, I'm sorry :-( I'd never heard that.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Well, that's what I got told at least. Afterall, there's still a chance the congratulation is in vain.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Sunday.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Football sunday? No! :'(

steelerfan

@ChristianRau OMG. Why are you so worried about my work schedule this weekend? You never usually care where I am at or what I am doing!

Christian Rau

@steelerfan What? I'm just worried you miss football, is all. But I'm pretty much as worried about that every weekend.

steelerfan

00:04

@ChristianRau Awww. Tentatively. I might not work at all this weekend. We'll see.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Now what's that meaning again?

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau Ah, so it comes under "tempting fate". Well, arguably you could say the same about congratulating someone in advance for anything, or wishing them good luck for some future endeavour.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau WUT? What does that even mean? That some tragic event will fall upon me before my Birthday? Oh, God!

Christian Rau

@Randal'Thor Well, just wishing good luck is a different thing. But you're already congratulating them to something they didn't yet achieve. You don't congratulate the Steelers for superbowl 2017 just yet. (Ok, bad example, they will obviously win anyway.)

@steelerfan Well, let's hope not.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau It depends on how bad this storm is. I'm going over there in the morning. I will hang around there until the storm clears. I do that whenever there's a storm like this.

@ChristianRau Oh, God :'(

Christian Rau

00:08

@steelerfan Awww, I'm sorry, I'm totally sure nothing bad will happen. Afterall Mr. al'Thor didn't know it would be bad luck, so it sure won't work anyway.

Rand al'Thor

> All things are possible, if it pleases the Light.

@steelerfan Don't worry :-)

steelerfan

Rand didn't congratulate me. He just wished me a Happy Birthday.

Christian Rau

Well, see, then everything is alright.

steelerfan

Yeah, and we have this horrible storm coming in tonight and everything :(

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Everything will be fine!

steelerfan

00:16

@ChristianRau Okay. Whatever you say, my dear :)

Too bad you don't get the Thursday night game :(

Christian Rau

Why, what does it do?

steelerfan

Uhm...it shows you football on tv on a Thursday night...

Christian Rau

Chargés et Broncios?

@steelerfan Sure, but it sounded like it would be an especially amazing game.

Anyway, it would start about now, but I'd actually have to go to bed at some point.

steelerfan

Chargers/Broncos are always a good game!!

MannlyMann

Hey @steelerfan, sorry about your power is it better now?

steelerfan

00:26

@MannlyMann My son!! Yes, it's better!! I hear that you are now taken! ;)

MannlyMann

Mhm its all worked out in the end, and now im happy

steelerfan

The Senior?

MannlyMann

yep

and my other friend is not mad at me

so Im good

steelerfan

@ChristianRau OMG. YOU SHOULD SEE BRONCOS UNIFORMS!!! These new Thursday night uniforms are crazy!! You would love them!!! It's an orange explosion!

MannlyMann

Now i just have to figure out how to pass highschool

Christian Rau

00:28

@steelerfan O_O

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Yay!! Watch out for those older women!!! Ask @ChristianRau. He knows :P

Christian Rau

@MannlyMann Shouldn't be too hard. You actually have to put in active effort in order to not pass.

MannlyMann

@ChristianRau According to most of my friends and teachers, I am a model bad student

I am really smart

but could give two craps about homework or grades

steelerfan

...and adorable.

You look just like my nephew.

MannlyMann

@steelerfan thanks :D

Rand al'Thor

00:31

@MannlyMann Tut tut, Mannly. Must pull your socks up, and think about work as well as girls ;-)

Christian Rau

At the start of 11th grade they told us "now the lazy days are over and you actually have to work". I kept my habit of looking through the stuff the night before tests and got through fine (and much better than the years before). At the start of university they told us "now the lazy days are over and you actually have to work". I kept my habit of looking through the stuff the night before tests and got through fine.

steelerfan

@MannlyMann That's what you have @ChristianRau and @Randal'Thor for. They seem to always help you with your math ;)

While I just run ;)

Christian Rau

Learning for effin' weeks before tests is for girls. ;-)

steelerfan

Hehehe!

MannlyMann

@Randal'Thor Work is dumb, there is no reward to doing busy work homework

@steelerfan wait do I know @ChristianRau?

steelerfan

00:34

I actually loved learning new stuff that I was interested in. I would completely immerse myself in it.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Sure, but in that case you learn it during the lessons anyway, no?

steelerfan

@MannlyMann He is the former Napoleon Wilson. Yes, you know him :)

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Still not that much really.

steelerfan

Oh, God!! Power flicker!!!

MannlyMann

@steelerfan ah well nice to know

@ChristianRau we've talked a couple of times

@steelerfan Rip @steelerfan again

steelerfan

00:36

@ChristianRau Yeah, but, he knows who you are. You're his future stepfather...he should know!! ;)

MannlyMann

@steelerfan WAIT WHAT????????????

Rand al'Thor

@MannlyMann Sure there is ... later on in life.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan I thought you weren't big on marrying.

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau And for successful people ;-)

MannlyMann

@Randal'Thor Fair point

Christian Rau

00:38

@Randal'Thor Uh...no, that's a misconception by people who just worked too much.. ;-)

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Oh, God. I'm just messing with you!!

@ChristianRau I'm not. I'm just messing around. I'm sorry. I don't mean to stress you out.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan You don't stress me out at all, you're the one who never wanted to marry again. ;-)

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Oh, shit!! I totally screwed up what I was saying. I meant that you're his future stepson...not stepfather. Hahaha! No wonder you were confused ;)

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau I dunno what kind of crappy university you went to, if cramming the night before exams was enough to get you through :-P

MannlyMann

@steelerfan Yeah I was going to say that I thought Himarm was my step father

or is he the crazy uncle

Christian Rau

00:41

@steelerfan No, you had it correctly, you were speaking to me with the first message anyway.

Rand al'Thor

@MannlyMann Um, wut?

A new twist in the Steeler love life?

(only joking)

MannlyMann

No this was decided a long time ago

steelerfan

Himarm is the crazy uncle. Definitely ;)

MannlyMann

Ok thats what I thought

Christian Rau

@steelerfan I think the actual confusion stems from you mixing up virtual joke relations with real ones and assume everyone immediately gets the whole picture. ;-)

MannlyMann

00:43

See?

Rand al'Thor

@MannlyMann Wait, who the hell is that in the centre left?

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Yeah. Probably.

MannlyMann

@Randal'Thor No clue

Christian Rau

@Randal'Thor Well, I was studying something that interested me and I understood what people told me during the lectures. But thanks, I don't think the university was that crappy. But I admittedly didn't go to effin' Oxford or Cambridge or whatever's hip right now with the rich Brits.

KutuluMike

looks like jan brady.

MannlyMann

00:45

I also have no clue who bot left is

KutuluMike

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau I wasn't being serious; sorry if you took it that way. I did include a :-P!

steelerfan

@MannlyMann To clear up any confusion...I have a lot of online silly relatives for fun. In reality, I have actually met and spent time with Chris (the former Napoleon Wilson) that's why I made the stepfather crack. I hope that you're not too confused.

MannlyMann

@steelerfan I figured that much from the way you two talked, I was just slightly confused

steelerfan

@ChristianRau OMG. He was only kidding!

Christian Rau

00:47

@steelerfan Sure.

steelerfan

<sigh>

KutuluMike

@steelerfan I thought we had firmly established that Napoleon has no sense of humor

steelerfan

I have zero clue why Jan Brady is part of our family ;)

MannlyMann

^

Himarm Jr made this a long time ago

steelerfan

@KutuluMike Hehehe! Wait. Nevermind. I'm not really laughing ;)

Rand al'Thor

00:50

@KutuluMike He does; he just doesn't engage it as often (or at the same time) as some of us do.

Also, he just Napoleonised himself again for a minute.

MannlyMann

@Randal'Thor What does Napoleonised mean?

Rand al'Thor

@MannlyMann He turned his chat profile back to Napoleon Wilson instead of Christian Rau, and then back again.

steelerfan

"napoleonises" himself. OMG. Hahaha!

Rand al'Thor

Probably because he had something moddish to do in chat?

MannlyMann

@Randal'Thor I am still confused

@Randal'Thor Why

Rand al'Thor

00:54

@steelerfan Or even better: "he modified himself" :-D

@MannlyMann He's not a mod in chat when he's Christian Rau, only when he's Napoleon Wilson.

MannlyMann

@Randal'Thor wait he loses his mod powers?

KutuluMike

he's only a mod when he's in chat on his mod account.

when he's in chat on his SO account he's just a normal SO user in chat

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Why did you Napoleonise yourself again?

Christian Rau

@steelerfan I just had to make an edit to a message. It was just a minor typo, but it was in a seminal message.

KutuluMike

that is possibly my favorite looks-dirty-but-isn't word

MannlyMann

00:57

@KutuluMike ?

steelerfan

@ChristianRau What message? Do tell!!

Christian Rau

@steelerfan The one you made to clear up confusions.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan chat.stackexchange.com/messages/32908696/history

Ah, Napoleon and his chat edits :-)

MannlyMann

Oh @steelerfan I updated my imgur page

If you need the link lemme know

Rand al'Thor

Not that I disapprove of perfectionism - quite the opposite! But I usually make sure everything's spelled right and typo-free before posting it, rather than having to edit it afterwards :-)

Christian Rau

01:00

I wouldn't have cared much if the message wasn't so important and the typo so ambiguous.

steelerfan

I don't even see what was changed...I guess that I am missing something...

Rand al'Thor

(Of course, I also have the advantage of writing in my mother tongue here.)

@steelerfan He removed a superfluous "and".

Christian Rau

@Randal'Thor Well, it wasn't my messahe anyway.

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Yes. I need the link!

MannlyMann

mannlymann.imgur.com/all @steelerfan

Rand al'Thor

01:02

@ChristianRau Why ambiguous?

Christian Rau

@Randal'Thor It could as well have been a missing name instead of a superflous "and".

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau Well, maybe she has met and spent time with people other than you ;-)

Christian Rau

Yeah, granted.

steelerfan

Yeah, Chris. You never know... ;)

@ChristianRau Gheez. Thanks a lot! ;-(

Christian Rau

2 mins ago, by steelerfan

Yeah, Chris. You never know... ;)

steelerfan

01:07

Hey...you said your comment first!

@MannlyMann I think that I have seen all of these images.

MannlyMann

check the newest one

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Well, then I want to apologize for it, it wasn't meant entirely serious.

MannlyMann

open in new tab to see it

steelerfan

@ChristianRau "entirely" serious? Uhm, okay.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Gheez, scratch the "entirely" then.

Rand al'Thor

01:10

@steelerfan Hey, what's the problem? You've met and spent time with plenty of people! Meeting and spending time with people doesn't necessarily mean anything more than just that ;-)

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Alright. Fine.

Christian Rau

Hmpf, either I have no humour or too much.

But it's over 3 already anyway. So good night everyone.

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor No problem at all. I meet new people all of the time IRL. It's just a lot different than meeting someone on line and actually physically meeting them. It's all good :)

@ChristianRau Nite.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan I don't think I've ever met anyone on SE and then IRL, although there are a couple of people I've met IRL and then on SE.

Night @ChristianRau!

steelerfan

I thought that we were all messing around, anyways ;)

Rand al'Thor

01:18

What else is there in here except messing around? ;-)

steelerfan

Muahahahahaha!!! :P

@Randal'Thor Oh, that's right! You had a stalker!

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Well, that's what I did too all the time.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Yes, that one. Also another guy whom I met a couple of times IRL and then, totally by coincidence, he answered one of my SE questions. Of course, since I don't use my real name here, he would have had no idea it was me :-)

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Are you talking about messing around?

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Yes?

steelerfan

01:22

@ChristianRau Awww. It's all good, babe. I'm sorry if I took it too far. I'm only poking at you because I adore you so much :)

@Randal'Thor That's a little creepy, though that he just "happened" to answer your question!

@ChristianRau Just tell me to shut the hell up if I am going too far with you ;)

Christian Rau

@steelerfan No, I can't do that.

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau Because you might get flagged? :-P

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Sure you can! You have slapped me in the face...surely you can tell me to shut the hell up ;)

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Nah, just a funny coincidence. It's the other guy that was creepy.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan I have WHAT?

Rand al'Thor

01:26

popcorn

steelerfan

@ChristianRau HAHAHA! When I asked you to slap me to keep me awake when I was driving and you wouldn't do it and then when you did you barely tapped me ;)

It was pretty frigging adorable, actually ;)

Christian Rau

Oh, okay. Thanks for the clarification. It's not like that relationship isn't already questioned enough. ;-)

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Gheez, Rand. How many guys do you have stalking you? ;)

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Only one - that's what I've been saying!

steelerfan

@ChristianRau What are you talking about? I'm certainly not questioning anything :'(

Rand al'Thor

01:30

He has more than one account on SE, but my stalker is only one guy IRL.

The other guy (who answered one of my questions) was just a funny coincidence and not a stalker.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Oh, of course I know. But you also knew what you meant with the chat message anyway.

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Oh, okay. It's me you're talking to, remember? You need to explain things slowly sometimes ;)

@ChristianRau I just started it that way to get a reaction from everyone ;)

Christian Rau

I see.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan You're lucky ~~Napoleon~~ Christian is a patient man :-P

steelerfan

I would never say that you actually slapped me and would be serious about it.

Christian Rau

01:33

@steelerfan I know.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau I'm sorry. I'm really, really sorry. Now I feel bad for messing with you too much :'(

Christian Rau

> No bounce, no play!

@steelerfan Don't worry about it, it's okay. ;-)

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Yes, I know. I have no idea why he puts up with some of my shit sometimes. I can be a little trying at times ;)

I can be somewhat of a handful :P

@ChristianRau Oh, God. You're up way too late! Get to bed, mister!

Christian Rau

Okay.

steelerfan

Good night, my dear ;-*

Christian Rau

01:38

@steelerfan Good night. ;-*

steelerfan

Wait. I thought that it was Mannlymann that I said goodnight to earlier...God. I'm really confused. I'm so sorry that I didn't wish you my normal good night earlier @ChristianRau. God. I'm a f**king idiot sometimes!

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Don't worry, all is well. ;-)

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan At least you got it the right way round - it might have been more awkward if you'd said goodnight to me or Mannly thinking it was ~~Napoleon~~ Christian ;-)

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Hehehe! Good point!

Now, I will just wait for my sister to leave and then call Chris and wake him up :P. Muahahahaha!

Christian Rau

@steelerfan You can wake me up if you can wait till 0:00.

steelerfan

01:45

I'm still trying to get used to him not being Napoleon. It's very confusing ;)

Christian Rau

@steelerfan It's not, since outside of chat I never was that anyway.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan If it's confusing for you who know him IRL, imagine how confusing it must be for the rest of us!

Christian Rau

I would be delighted if I could call you by your real name in chat.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Awww. It's okay, my dear. I have to get up at 05:00. I will be asleep. Don't worry. I will call you tomorrow :)

Rand al'Thor

Actually I didn't find it that confusing. The writing style is the same, after all. And I'm already used to thinking of him both as Cahir Mawr Some Long-Arsed Name I Can't Even Remember and Napoleon Wilson, so another name added to the mix isn't much trouble :-)

steelerfan

01:47

@ChristianRau You can call me by my real name in chat. Everyone knows it by now, anyways :)

MannlyMann

@steelerfan Actually I dont

Christian Rau

It doesn't work with @-syntax, though. (And is confusing for other readers.)

See.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Well, you don't have to ping me as that, but, you can call me by my real name. I love it when you do that, anyways :)

MannlyMann

Which is weird considering im your son

but I dont think you know mine either

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Come along, Pond! :-P

steelerfan

01:49

Hehehe!

MannlyMann

Unless Foxchan called me by it

steelerfan

I don't think so.

MannlyMann

guess

Rand al'Thor

Hmm, so that means @ChristianRau must be Rory ...

MannlyMann

What would my name be by you seeing my face

steelerfan

01:51

Oh, God. I don't know. You look like my nephew, so, I want to call you Tristan.

MannlyMann

Oh no

definitely not a tristan

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Oh, God. Doesn't he get her pregnant?

@MannlyMann I need a hint.

MannlyMann

A president once bore my name

steelerfan

George?

Bill?

John?

Christian Rau

Milhouse?

Rand al'Thor

01:53

@MannlyMann Oo, this sounds like a riddle!

steelerfan

Barrack?

Rand al'Thor

A president of which country? :-P

MannlyMann

One of the 3 was correct

Kinda of

its a nickname for a longer name

steelerfan

William?

MannlyMann

^^^^

Bingo

steelerfan

01:54

woohooo!!!

Christian Rau

Milhouse would have been more unique, though.

MannlyMann

Now you gotta tell me yours

steelerfan

Wait. We had a President named Millhouse?

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Dickie Nixon.

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Hmmm...my name has only 3 letters. That's an easy hint.

MannlyMann

01:56

Ana?

Christian Rau

And it highlights her amiable personality.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Wasn't his first name Richard? Isn't Millhouse a Simpson character?

KutuluMike

it's Cindy but she spells it Cyn

Christian Rau

Richard Nixon

Richard Milhous Nixon (January 9, 1913 – April 22, 1994) was the 37th President of the United States who served from 1969 to 1974, when he became the only U.S. president to resign the office. Nixon had previously served as a U.S. Representative and Senator from California and as the 36th Vice President of the United States from 1953 to 1961. Nixon was born in Yorba Linda, California. After completing his undergraduate studies at Whittier College, he graduated from Duke University School of Law in 1937 and returned to California to practice law. He and his wife, Pat Nixon, moved to Washington in...

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Well, yes, but she kind of skips the whole pregnancy thing because she's actually in captivity during that period and living vicariously through her Flesh avatar (spoilers). Nor does she have to bother much about motherhood, because her daughter is kidnapped at birth and goes back in time to become her best friend when she was growing up (even more spoilers).

steelerfan

01:57

Not Ana. Starts with an "A" though.

Rand al'Thor

@MannlyMann You can work it out from all the references I'm dropping.

MannlyMann

@steelerfan Amy?

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Bingo!

MannlyMann

Yay, whats my prize?

steelerfan

Mind you, Chris is the only one allowed to call me that in chat ;)

MannlyMann

01:58

@steelerfan yep got it

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Are you the only one allowed to call him Chris too?

Christian Rau

@Randal'Thor Yes. Everywhere, though.

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Having me as your internet mother. Is that not reward enough? ;)

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau :-)

MannlyMann

@steelerfan Yes, of course

Christian Rau

01:59

> Who the f--k are you? You sound like one of those James Bonds! This has to do with the f--king eel.

Rand al'Thor

resists temptation to start using @Chris all the time

steelerfan

@MannlyMann Hehehe! Woot!!

@Randal'Thor HAHAHA!! Do it! Do it!! ;)

Christian Rau

@steelerfan :'(

MannlyMann

@steelerfan I shall too, if it is allowed

steelerfan

I am pretty sure that Chris only likes me calling him Chris...

Rand al'Thor

02:01

in Mos Eisley, Jun 23 at 0:02, by Politank-Z

Dooooooo eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

steelerfan

Definitely don't call him Napoleon IRL... ;)

Rand al'Thor

Poor ~~Napoleon~~ Christian :-(

Wait, I thought he wasn't religious?

steelerfan

HE'S NOT!!!

Yeah, how did you get your name @ChristianRau?

Rand al'Thor

Then why the hell is he called Christian? :-P

Only Christians should be called Christian!

Christian Rau

@steelerfan I'm sure I told you already. Let me dig the transcript.

steelerfan

02:03

Oh, God. He's supposed to be sleeping and we keep bothering him ;)

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Are his parents religious?

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor I have no idea.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Hence why I haven't been pinging him for a while :-)

Christian Rau

Mar 6 at 1:40, by Napoleon Wilson

@steelerfan Well, I know that my parents couldn't really agree on much and my name was rather a compromise that both were satisfied with.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Why don't you just tell me instead of digging through the transcript. JFC! ;)

Christian Rau

02:04

Mar 6 at 1:41, by Napoleon Wilson

My mother also had Benjamin in mind, which in the past I would really have liked, but nowadays I wouldn't so much. But my father had bad experiences with Benjamins. And then there was also Alexander, which I would also have liked quite a bit, but my father thought that was too Russian. ;-)

@steelerfan So I don't have to type it again. ;-)

@Randal'Thor No.

@Randal'Thor I don't know anyone who's actually Christian and bears that name.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau OMG!! Do you realize how close that you were to almost sharing pretty much the same name with Catija's baby?

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Heh! But we don't really do double names here (or at least we didn't when I was born).

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau Why would someone who wasn't Christian want to name their son Christian?

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Yeah. Double names are a given over here. Everyone has them!

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Really?

That seems strange to me.

steelerfan

02:08

@Randal'Thor It's actually a common name over here. It has nothing to dowith Christianity.

Rand al'Thor

Do you have a middle name then? :-)

Christian Rau

@Randal'Thor Because it's a nice name? I don't know, maybe it's because noone really gives a crap about religion here. But I never put much significance on that meaning.

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Yep. Everyone here has a middle name.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan The word "Christian" has everything to do with Christianity.

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Not here, it doesn't.

Rand al'Thor

02:09

I mean, sure, I know of people called Christian who aren't Christians too. It's still a weird thing to do.

Christian Rau

Sure.

I guess there's also Amies who aren't amiable, but I know none. ;-)

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan It's exactly the same word that's used to describe a follower of that religion - or used as an adjective to describe anything to do with that religion.

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Yes! I have a middle name! Dun dun dunnnn!

Christian Rau

Well, my grandma was named Christa and at least she had birthday on December 25th.

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Your middle name is Dun?

@ChristianRau A reincarnation?

steelerfan

02:11

@Randal'Thor Hehehe! Yep. You guessed it ;)

@ChristianRau Well, that's just the coolest name EVER!! OMG!!

Christian Rau

Your middle name is "danger", right?

@steelerfan Meh, I don't know.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau HAHAHA!! OMG!!! You so funny!!

Christian Rau

It's not really common here and honestly pretty much a grandma name.

Rand al'Thor

Steelerfan's middle name is Trouble ;-)

steelerfan

Hehehe!!

Rand al'Thor

02:13

If you're looking for Trouble, you've come to the right place.
If you're looking for Trouble, look right into Steelerfan's face.

steelerfan

WOOHOO!!!

@ChristianRau Really? I think that it's a beautiful name. It's definitely not a Grandma name here.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Well, probably comes down to language and culture again. As said, I don't like Chris in German at all, but in English it's nice.

Rand al'Thor

> These were the elite. Trouble was their middle name. In the case of Captain Kelp, Trouble was actually his first name. He’d insisted on it at his manhood ceremony, having just been accepted into the Academy.

Christian Rau

Kelpie?

Rand al'Thor

Better not call him that to his face.

steelerfan

02:17

Christian Rau

Shagadelic!

steelerfan

You wanna shag, baby? ;)

Rand al'Thor

...

Christian Rau

So is Jonesy's memory storage just a metaphor for his normal mind processes (well, it definitely is to quite some degree), a more substantial method of managing his mind that he just learned somehow (similar to Sherlock's mind palace), or actually part of his abilities he got from Duddits (like the ability to house Mr. Gray while still staying concious)? Or a combination of all that?

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Hehehe! I was actually just quoting the movie ;)

SHAGFEST!!!

Christian Rau

02:23

@steelerfan You can use quote markup > to avoid confusions for cases like this. ;-)

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Sorry :(

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Don't worry. Didn't bother me. I was just trying to help you.

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau Using "actual quotes" would make it even clearer. (But it didn't bother me either, so don't worry.)

Christian Rau

@Randal'Thor I like quote markup better. It's just the right tool for the purpose and it reads much more streamlined.

Rand al'Thor

@ChristianRau But all it actually does in chat is move the text slightly to the right. Very easy to miss at a quick glance.

Whereas actual quote marks are unambiguous even to those who aren't experienced with SE chat markup.

@Randal'Thor No, that's SciFi's awfully dark theme only. Here it also puts a very well-recognizable line in front of it.

Rand al'Thor

> testing

OK, a line at least. I'd still dispute "very well-recognizable" though. But to each his own :-)

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Sure. It's not that I actually ask anyways :P

Christian Rau

Well, quotes might be too recognizable. I think they distract from the essence and clarity of the actual quote.

@steelerfan Hehe!

> You just drove over the Curtis line.

Rand al'Thor

I sometimes use quote markup too, but I use quotes when I want to be really clear, e.g. when quoting something that might cause offence if people don't realise it's a quote.

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Oh, God. You need to get to sleep! You will be of no use to me tomorrow when I can actually speak to you! ;)

I once got flagged for making a Firefly reference.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan I'm rarely of use on the phone anyway.

Rand al'Thor

And someone in the Nineteenth Byte got flagged for a Princess Bride quote.

Christian Rau

Well, 'nuff said. ;-)

steelerfan

@ChristianRau WUT?!?! That's not true at all!!! Don't even say that!!

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Okay.

steelerfan

02:33

@Randal'Thor Seriously?

Christian Rau

> Ooby-Ooby-Doo, we got some sleep to do!

steelerfan

@ChristianRau You always are of use to me. You have no idea how just hearing your voice helps me through the day sometimes :)

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Awww, ditto!

Rand al'Thor

@steelerfan Specifically, a reference to Shepherd Book's quote about "the special hell".

steelerfan

@ChristianRau Get some sleep, my dear. Sweet dreams ;-*

Christian Rau

02:36

The hell of boiling oil?

Rand al'Thor

Someone even came into Mos and told me I was calling people child molesters and so I should expect to get flagged.

Christian Rau

Oh.

Rand al'Thor

Upon which I edited to make clearer that it was a quote/reference.

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Good night! ;-*

> We've gotta save this girl.
> Save this world?
> Not the world, Duds. A girl. We'll save the world some other time.
> Ister Gay?

steelerfan

@Randal'Thor Oh my.

Time for me to get out of here, too. Good night all :)

Christian Rau

@steelerfan Good night and sweet dreams!

Rand al'Thor

Goodnight both! :-)

Q: maybe has the word 'identity' in it

Trying to remember a movie I saw when I was a kid. Prob 70's or 80's. There isn't a lot of info on it that I can remember. One scene is where a 'glass house' blows up with the main bad guy in it , at the end. I think the good guy was an assassin of sorts who had brother's (not biological) like h...

Q: A piece of music that is almost idnetical to another is called?

In movies and TV to save on royalties they would play a song that almost sounds like another popular song with just a few notes changed. They are meant to fool the audience or at least try to give off the same effect. Example: Escape montage from "Take the money and run" Sounds like Quincy Jon...

@MovieReel I'm not sure whether it is off-topic or not.

@AJ same here

@Randal'Thor Quotes can be risky sometime

@steelerfan I love his films

@AnkitSharma Ok, I'm voting it to close as off-topic. Music is a suitable SE site for this.

It just contains only Movies & TV once. And not related to M&TV in any manner.

2 days ago, by Christian Rau

That is pretty much the general text that always gets added to off-topic close-reasons. If you provide a custom close-reason, please try to say why it's off-topic and what about it doesn't fit here.

@ChristianRau How about this one?

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because this is not about movies or TV shows. Perhaps Music is a perfect SE site for this. — A J 1 min ago
