@TanMath the sake of what? being borderline offensive to another user? I find the continued "alex is wrong" thing questionable enough in here, but taking it outside of chat is going a bit too far, I think.

I'm sleepy but I have to stay up for at least four and a half hours, probably more, and I can't stand the taste of coffee

Fml

quartata

@undergroundmonorail Tea?

Alex A.

@undergroundmonorail Embrace coffee and it will embrace you. shakes

Martin Büttner

22:34

@undergroundmonorail add milk. lots of it.

undergroundmonorail

@AlexA. Even worse imo. It sucks because I wish I liked tea or coffee because they seem so convenient but I don't D:

That message was for @quartata

Alex A.

undergroundmonorail

I also appreciate you Alex I just didn't have a specific response to the thing you said

Alex A.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

quartata

@undergroundmonorail Soda?

Alex A.

22:36

Cocaine?

undergroundmonorail

I am currently drinking pop (aggressively waves Canadian flag) but it is not as strong

Adnan

( ͡o ͜ʖ ͡o)

undergroundmonorail

It's not a huge deal, if I didn't want to be tired today I shouldn't have played hearthstone instead of sleeping last night. This is my cross to bear

Fun fact: if I don't keep a close eye on myself, I will apparently dump over $50 into hearthstone arena runs in two and a half days

Alex A.

@Adnan Is this Lenny on cocaine?

quartata

@AlexA. I thought you said you were trying to be a good role model

undergroundmonorail

22:39

I don't even like the game that much I think it's okay

Alex A.

Oh right

Adnan

@AlexA. Yes it is :)

I have removed my paypal from my blizzard account because enough is enough, at least for now

There are two legendary cards I want to complete my deck and after spending more than I would normally be comfortable with on arena trying to get dust and packs full of cards I can dust, I am relatively close to being able to craft one of them

Alex A.

Enough is temporarily enough

undergroundmonorail

It's so easy to be like "arena is pretty fun and it's only two bucks, I did shitty this time so I'll play again" and then play almost 20 times (it comes out to $3 canadian). I am willing to spend money on it but I think doing so while I'm trying to achieve a goal is bad for me haha

The state of Oregon has 7.4 breweries per capita.

TanMath

@MartinBüttner gosh...I have been the person to have the most misunderstandings about what I do...

So is my question offensive?

It is a joke you know...

@AlexA. is a great person and I do not want to offend him...

Hey, lookee me! I golfed today!

Someone else's answer.

And I have the SAT tomorrow, so I should probably be sleeping.

But heyyy, lookee me go!

El'endia Starman

@FlagAsSpam Good luck! (You'll need it after being sleep deprived. :P)

FlagAsSpam

Psh.

I'd do worse if I wasn't sleep deprived.

Partially because I would just be relaxed.

I need... functional anxiety.

Also: 16 byte shave.

How about: void x(int[]a,int[]b){for(int i=0;i<a.length;i++)System.out.print(a[i]>0?"A":b[i]>0?"B":"C");} (94 bytes)? You don't need the static declaration on functions. — FlagAsSpam 6 mins ago

Parkinson's law

Parkinson's law is the adage that "work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion", and the title of a book which made it well-known. == History == Articulated by Cyril Northcote Parkinson as part of the first sentence of a humorous essay published in The Economist in 1955 and since republished online, it was reprinted with other essays in the book Parkinson's Law: The Pursuit of Progress (London, John Murray, 1958). He derived the dictum from his extensive experience in the British Civil Service. A current form of the law is not the one Parkinson refers to by that name in the...

@FlagAsSpam No, this ^

@TanMath Thanks. :D

@RikerW No, it must be just you being obsessed with planes.

@mınxomaτ Yeah, I saw that. xD

I'm okay with that. It proves that Vitsy can also be a name.

A surname, but a name nonetheless.
