@Aarthi not sure, (also not sure how much extra content will be on the DVD part of hte blu-ray combo pack and my blu-ray player doesn't currently have windows installed on it)
02:08
@waxeagle Lame.
@waxeagle want a director's cut, dammit.
02:21
@Aarthi I'm sure it will come, in a year or two
hopes
02:44
is it partytime yet?
@Aarthi nah, my birthday is still a bit over 2 weeks away :P
hahaha
@Aarthi but rumor has it my wife is making raspberry pie
@Aarthi that might already be in the mail
02:46
ooo
@Aarthi :)
i've been practicing fake ted talks in my shower
i wanna give one soooo much
maybe i just like attention :P
@Aarthi topic?
lately it's been "living memory in an internet age"
...she said, in a public chatroom
03:02
ok, just lost >18000 - 0 in song pop, I think I'll go to bed in shame.

WHAT UP ASSEMBLY
Hey it's @MarkTrapp
bother bother bother
user2334
WHAT
user2334
oh hello
17:10
How you been, man?
BARK! BARKBARKBARKBARKBARK! BARK!
GUYS
THIS IS AMERICA'S NAVY: onlylolgifs.net/post/31748925241
@Aarthi HEY! That's.... um.... well based on my experience with Navy men pretty darn accurate actually...
full video
@voretaq7 oh hooooo someone enjoys fleet week
@Aarthi not really actually
The cute sailors are either really straight or totally closeted and refuse to go more than 10 feet away from their shore buddy (it's really disturbing - they go to the fucking bathroom in pairs like creepy women do)
17:21
@voretaq7 next year I certainly intend to. i found myself, senior year of college, strangely surrounded by gay men. it was fun. if fleet week is truly the gayest week in New York, I'll have found my own kind.
@voretaq7 you know women do that so that they don't get victimized going to and fro a strange/unknown place, right?
Then there's the one kid from the midwest I met two years ago who was actually about to cry 'cuz he got lost on the subway - that was disturbing.
@Aarthi And in a shady place I'm all for that, but when it's a restaurant we've been to dozens of times and you can see the restroom doors from the table... y'all just wanna talk about us behind our backs!
@voretaq7 okay that part is true.
Tricksy wimminses - tricksy and sneaksing out the bathroom window to get away from the creepy blind date!
(Gollum's video dating service ad would SO be an instant internet hit)
So isn't this chat room where the goddamn slackers who keep sticking gum under the desks non-mods are supposed to come and talk to us? 'cuz basically it's turning into TL overflow. Did we kick the kids out of the cafetorium?
This is The Zoo. See, we come here and do entertaining things, and people can look at us and be amused.
does monkey impression
17:43
@mmyers No poo-flinging. This is a family show.
I also demand that the fainting couch be removed from all ladies' rooms.
Because seriously, why don't guys get a fainting couch?
(sorry in a meeting bbl)
user2334
18:23
BYE AARTHI WE'LL MISS U :(
@MarkTrapp "meeting" -- that's SE code for "The kegerator just got here - screw you freaks!"
Or she's in the semifinals of the ping-pong tournament
18:40
@MarkTrapp AW I MISSHU TOO
(still in a meeting)
meeting really means meeting
the pingpong table is put away
and the beer fridge is empty
WHAT? UNACCEPTABLE! WORK STOPPAGE!
meeting over, by the by
18:59
@voretaq7 fainting couches are the best. and by best i mean most perplexing
@Aarthi I'll be honest you - I'm not sure I would want to sit/lay on a bathroom couch...
@Aarthi fuck that shit - can't have a meetin' without mah '40s!
@voretaq7 only while less than fully sober.
@voretaq7 sysadmins.
@Aarthi bewz soothes the savage beast!
uh huh sure we can go with that.
speaking of: where's @MarkTrapp bother bother bother
Romney is the best
19:04
Yo Teacher's Lounge! Ima let you finish [the chatcast], but the Assembly is the best goofing off location of all time. OF ALL TIME.
2
@phwd That's because Republicans are the best!
jrg
jrg
@phwd Nah, I'm a fan of Big Blue.
Pssh. Kids and their need to separate goofing from... whatever it is we're supposed to be doing in the lounge
The kids are too organised in their disorganisation
@jrg Big Blue Brother?
19:07
@phwd R-Money raps like nobody's self-made business
@random Perfectly distributed disorganization?
jrg
jrg
@ChrisS The bird?
i love when this room is poppin'.
@jrg Oh; I haven't killed pigs in forever.... what's the address..... chrome.angrybirds.com
I love how everyone piles in at once.
19:08
@jrg I'd vote for him, better than any of the current options
jrg
jrg
@ChrisS For this guy? - angrybirdsfan.wikia.com/wiki/Big_Blue_Brother_Bird, otherwise you already found it.
@waxeagle I can't vote, but agreed.
@WarriorBob only when a link goes live
whatever: party time!
@Aarthi :D-\-<
@WarriorBob awww it's a discoing guy
19:10
we need a dance bot
@Aarthi :D-/-<
@Aarthi I presume you're familiar with the bash.org quote. I'd link it but it's filtered as "tasteless" from my work, heh.
<Zybl0re> get up
<Zybl0re> get on up
<Zybl0re> get up
<Zybl0re> get on up

Dan
Hello people in strange scary place I don't know
Ah, thank you
@dan Hellos!
Makes me want to listen to tasteless unworthy dubstep for some reason
user2334
@Aarthi WHATCHU WANT DAM
@MarkTrapp ...party?
user2334
@phwd How about some tasteful dubstep with a violin instead?
user2334
@Aarthi gangnam style?
19:16
@MarkTrapp eeeeeeeey
This seems to be like a grandiose party here
user19161
What party is this?
/me hands out beer
@WillHunting Somebody booked our normal conference room and we got pushed down the hall to the one by the lobby
beeeeer
19:17
Wow, this is a big party.
user19161
I know I know, there is no party. THis is a TRAP!
@MarkTrapp as long as it is less whub whub to fill those laptop speakers
user19161
Now we cannot leave this room!
@WillHunting explodes the door.
This is now when someone comes in asking for halp with their pr0blam
19:18
```
I wanted to let you know that we're having a small chat-party!

```
This isn't small. Nope.
How to quote a person here?
THE BRIDGE HAS ARRIVED!
5
Also, partly this
user2334
@phwd There's a moderate amount of whub whub but it is counteracted by Lindsey Stirling swoon
user19161
Oh, Teacher's Lounge! Where all the secrets are!
@fbueckert In other words this place is now cool. tortoise shades
19:19
@ParthKohli Post the link from the arrow thingy on the left.
@fbueckert We've brought the party!
@Wipqozn Indeed. Now you all may bask in our awesomeness.
2
I do not see my own avatar in the user list.
19:19
@fbueckert Beam me down to Ten-Forward then. It's too crowded.
Yes! Now it's there taking up even more room in the name of the Bridge.
@Wipqozn The one time you don't post a picture.
user19161
@aarthi I see you changed your pic long ago!
@WillHunting What is going on?
user19161
@JayeshBadwaik Nothing.
19:20
@mmyers Eh. Walk. We're busy.
@RonanForman I'm on my laptop. Don't have the link :(
@Wipqozn I wish you were owner here so that I could remove it from you for that
That is truly a terrible excuse!
@badp You could just add me, and then remove me.
@WillHunting yup! been about a month now :)
@Wipqozn Here
19:22
This seems like a chat stampede.
To celebrate the Bridge's arrival I suggest that we ban something. I nominate SciFi.SE.
3
user2334
@mmyers Let's create a new chat room. The world needs a place that's completely devoid of activity except for the occasional post by random or user not in the know posting into the wind for support
user19161
@Aarthi Hmm, you looked good then. Maybe that's the reason you changed. :-)
@fbueckert Sadly it's too late for me to edit it in.
@MarkTrapp What happened to webapps chat?
19:22
@WillHunting haha nah I just wanted a change, and I love applejack. she's awesome.
user2334
@badp idkmybffjill
@StrixVaria I second and third and fourth that.
How can a bridge arrive when it cannot walk? visitingdc.com/images/golden-gate-bridge-picture-2.jpg
Soo many people... So many posts!
19:23
@ParthKohli We're in a spaceship. Our bridge can go anywhere.
@ParthKohli Wrong type of bridge.
@badp it was eminently entertaining.
Stampede chat alert!
@MarkTrapp iduym
this is the best this room has ever been.
user19161
19:24
Nothing to see here, I am leaving.
user2334
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?
user19161
Not at all!
user2334
@Aarthi No, this is not the best room. That is the best room: mybestwallpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/…
This room creates much fragmentation in the chatosphere
19:25
@Aarthi Because The Bridge is here.
Needs more tunes!
PARTY
user2334
@ParthKohli There's something perverted about making your desktop wallpaper a picture of a room
@ParthKohli okay that is a pretty awesome room
user2334
A low-res, blurry picture of a room at that
@MarkTrapp Maybe you're just not his real father.
2
19:25
This room is better:
user image
2
@Wipqozn The Bridge turns any cool party into the best thing on Earth.
3
@RonanForman I second this.
user2334
@RonanForman Since when was Link the new Don Quixote?
MADNESS? THIS IS CHATTAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!
19:27
@GraceNote A what now?
user2334
All the starred posts saying this was my chat room have been pushed off :(
3
yay pins
100% more 0 is 0 :(
@MarkTrapp Nope. The Bridge owns this room now.
So many stars. ------------------------->
19:29
@badp therefore an INFINITE increase
@Aarthi BUT WON'T THAT GET US INFINITY MARK TRAPPS?!?!?!
This place is like that abandoned warehouse with all the raves that you don't see because you're dating the wrong crowd with the wrong hands
infinity × 0 is undetermined!
user2334
.[Mark Trapp repeating to infinity] = 1 discuss
@MarkTrapp Mark Trapp = 9
19:30
@badp SOUNDS LIKE THE BEST SITUATION.
@Aarthi Now that I have determined that Mark Trapp = 9 then I can accept this.
user2334
@random but my mom said I was cool :(
@MarkTrapp Your mom's a liar.
@random Now I just want to know what's the right hand to date with
@badp Your right hand.
user2334
19:32
@random If I bring a picture cut out from a glamour catalog, I'm sure they'll show up again
This room's transcript is a lot more boring than I thought.
@MarkTrapp So long as you don't run into the model it's a picture of.
@Ullallulloo but....party.
@Ullallulloo Of course. Everything is serious business. Except the Bridge.
user2334
@Wipqozn Yay everyone gets the reference!
19:32
@WarriorBob where's your dancing bot thing
We're the non-stop gaming/pedant/OCD party train!
@MarkTrapp Anyone who doesn't is dead to me.
@fbueckert It's not full of mod secrets for me to stumble upon though!
user2334
@Ullallulloo It was conceived as a boring place
@Aarthi
:D-\-<
:D-/-<
:D-|-<
19:33
@Ullallulloo > Sensitive details should remain inside TL.
From the room description.
So no dirty mod secrets here for us to blackmail them with.
Mod secrets are almost invariably boring.
2
@fbueckert Ah...shoot.
If it helps, TL is pretty boring generally, too
@mmyers unlike Gaming's one, like how Raven Dreamer is really a Robert Cartaino sockpuppet. True story!!
(voiceover: may not be true)
user2334
@mmyers The biggest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn't exist. I've seen the other side people! ATTICA ATTICA ATTICA
19:35
@badp I thought all the mods were just sock puppets of badp?
@Wipqozn you spelled @RebeccaChernoff wrong
@Aarthi oops, me and my typos!
@Wipqozn Man, that many split personalities must hurt. I have trouble keeping track of my three personalities.
@Aarthi You dare speak the name?
19:36
@MichaelMrozek I do, I dareth.
Most of them involve a nailbat.
...I'm bored now. Mod minions, entertain me!
dances
user2334
here we are now entertain us i feel stupid and contagious here we are now entertain us
@Aarthi With Wolves?
@fbueckert . . . (Hey @Aarthi can I kick 'im? PWEEEEEEZ? :-)
@voretaq7 do it.
@fbueckert i apologize in advance
19:39
@MarkTrapp Stop hanging out with a certain user in the webapps town hall :)
@voretaq7 @Aarthi invited the Bridge. You reap what you sow.
@fbueckert ...@aarthi said I could! YAAAAAY :-)
Surprised @MarkTrapp wasn't in there throwing down the Batman
@fbueckert ...so how come everything isn't getting flagged?
:-P
@voretaq7 Because we're just that awesome.
19:41
reaping?
this isn't SciFi
@Aarthi Just saw Hunger Games the other night.
@Aarthi And you don't know how glad of that I am.
@fbueckert HEY GUYS I THINK I FOUND A PLOT HOLE
@mmyers Who cares?!
@mmyers Only one?
19:43
@ChrisS really excellent adaptation, I thought.
@Aarthi I was hoping for an extended version with more of the story; like they did with LOTR.
@ChrisS How is that? I just read the books and was curious how well it'd translate to the screen, but wasn't sure I wanted to spend a couple of hours to find out.
@mmyers It's not a plot hole. It's a temporal bubble formed by resetting the universe for the last movie :P
@WarriorBob It was pretty true to the book; but it's only 2.5 hours long... So you're not going to fit a 400 page book into that time frame without chopping parts out everywhere.
Also, if you read the book before seeing the cast of the movie, you'll likely have different images of what people "should" look like.
@ChrisS No pun intended I'm sure :)
19:47
Killing people for sport is never punny. =]
@ChrisS Maybe not but that doesn't stop people from taking a stab at it now and again
@ChrisS Not sure if that's a joke, or if you're using a Dvorak keyboard and made a typo.
The Hunger Games part 4: Beyond Hungerdome
I am so getting kicked from this chat
@WarriorBob too much work to de-mod you first.
Also, so everyone can share my pain: I hate Sharepoint.
19:52
@voretaq7 Fair enough
@fbueckert What drives you nuts about it? I haven't used it much myself so I'm curious.
@fbueckert I see wbhat you did there. Share. Sharepoint. Very clever.
@Wipqozn I'm a clever guy.
@WarriorBob Imagine a web CMS system.
Add in Microsoft.
Dumb it down to make it easy for basic non-technical users.
Make it screech like hell whenever you try to go off the dumbed down path.
Add in extra "features" that do nothing but bloat the product.
@fbueckert Haha, okay, so that does mirror my limited experience :) We have a basic installation of it at my work and, for us at least, it's basically a slow document repository. I always figured we were perhaps "using it wrong."
@fbueckert @WarriorBob Force people to use MS Word on Windows to edit any documents stored in it.
@WarriorBob Nope. You're holding it fine, it's just really shitty.
@WarriorBob You're not. Be very glad that you don't use it day in and day out.
@voretaq7 Or worse yet, use Sharepoint Designer to edit your pages.
19:55
@fbueckert the word plugin for IE was painful enough, thanks
@voretaq7 Have you ever used SPD?
there's an entire site devoted to sharepoint... I can't help but wonder if they're all doped-up chronic alcoholics...
@fbueckert nopers
@voretaq7 You mean this site? sharepoint.stackexchange.com
they're so nice
@Aarthi zomg get out of my head
19:57
@voretaq7 It's the only way to directly edit your HTML/ASPX/WHATEVER files for Sharepoint.
Look at the pretty dots. There might be letters there too
And SPD tries to be "helpful" by closing tags and re-formatting your code.
@mmyers ZOMG A SITE WITH NO NAME! PH33R!
And you can't turn it off
19:57
@fbueckert Come now, you know Microsofts slogon! It's not a bug, it's a feature!
contains Clippy rage.
@Wipqozn Yup. And if I ever run into whoever designed SPD, specifically, we're going to have a "chat".
@WarriorBob :P
@WarriorBob Ironically, the only reason I even contribute there is to help me do my job.
@fbueckert I'm sure any contribution is appreciated.
Welp, off I go for now - I'll see all you fine people around
user2334
20:05
@voretaq7 Who? I like friends
@MarkTrapp now I won't spoil it for you - read the webapps town hall for yourself and decide :)
user2334
You people are going to make me look for the transcript aren't you
user2334
aksdjhqw
@MarkTrapp yes dammit! you should take an active interest in other sites sometimes! :)
user2334
Command + F "Trapp" nothing. Already bored
user2334
20:07
oh, it's Evan Carroll. He's trolling all the SE 2.0 elections
@MarkTrapp I fear for whichever site actually elects him.
say Mark, we never bribed or coerced you, did we?
at best, I think I tried to sweet-talk you once or twice.
@Aarthi You really should bribe us more often; gamers have short attention spans.
user2334
I was once granted carte blanche to close all questions without any other moderator questioning it
user2334
20:09
I mean, I wasn't. Don't use the preceding chat message out of context
@MarkTrapp he's not trolling - I'm convinced he HONESTLY feels this way
(he must have fallen down stairs a few times or something)
@voretaq7 he does. did you see the news article
@Aarthi news article?
this sounds vaguely familiar
where's @random when i need him
@voretaq7 he was protesting the arrest of a woman protesting a speed trap
user2334
@voretaq7 trolling can be sincere: the only requirement is that it's done to provoke an emotional response. I sincerely believe he sincerely detests Jeff Atwood and everything he stands for
20:11
@Aarthi YESSSS!
@MarkTrapp now it usually takes people months to hate Jeff and everything he stands for!
(or one good day on mSO)
I require a link. Nothing like some facedesking to remove all painful thoughts of Sharepoint!
I wonder what happened to make Evan turn... what horrible trauma did he suffer?
user2334
I think he was the recipient of the first, if not one of the first, year-long bans of MSO
(I have that game still. BEST. (graphical) ADVENTURE GAME. EVER.)
@MarkTrapp Pretty sure we banned RichB first
user2334
20:14
I see
Evan wasn't suspended for a long, long time. He was already notorious prior to his suspension.
user2334
Someone deleted all of his question history prior to May 2010 :(
He was famous for having a hugely negative reputation (if you looked at his rep graph) on MSO. Nearly everything he wrote was massively down-voted and then deleted.
that's the one :)
21:16
@Aarthi Google turns up quite a bit about him and it all makes me pity the poor guy. It's too bad all that energy isn't directed at something more useful. :-(
My god, it's full of mods.
@tombull89 ::snarl and growl:::
(@Aarthi hasn't fed us yet...)
throws you some steak
The trilogy mods get steak? Typical
@MichaelMrozek the stakes are higher on bigger sites
user2334
22:12
You mean… the steaks are higher on bigger sites
22:22
@MarkTrapp slaughterhouse.stackexchange.com?
or are we dealing with pre-cut steaks and we can go right to cooking?
@MichaelMrozek Server Fault Mods get steak and whisky. It's the only way they keep us from killing all our users)
@voretaq7 slaughterhouse5.SE? Duplicate of Science Fiction and Fantasy
@MichaelMrozek I don't mind as long as we all get cake
@Gilles Slaughterhouse51 - the new proving ground for site proposals!
@voretaq7 cask strength single malt whisky?
@freiheit ayup
they made us take down our still...
@voretaq7 I could use some of that. Got anything in a 40-80 ppm phenol?
22:35
What good are the chat tags? They all 404. Not just in this room. Everywhere.
@ЯegDwight They work in rooms connected to a specific site
in The Velodrome, 1 min ago, by freiheit
testing tag:
@freiheit I mean the tags that are part of a room description.
@freiheit ...tape head cleaner? :)
Go click on the tags in Arqade, say.

 The Bridge

General Arqade Chat. We tried to leave once, but the door lock...
They all 404.
@ЯegDwight They're largely just silly or for organizing things...
@ЯegDwight But I believe if a room is tied to a specific site and the room tags actually corresponded to tags on the site, those tag links would go to that tag on the site
22:42
Well yes, organizing how?
@freiheit Hm. Then I guess everybody uses them wrong.
(say, if you had a site with so much chat activity that you had a dozen chat room, each for a different tag on the site)
I mean, wild cards just can't work, can they.
@freiheit AH! Now that makes sense.
Well, on SO it does.
Nowhere else really.
right
I see, I see...
Well thanks for that.
@voretaq7 I like punishing my palette with peat
22:44
I guess I'll go delete mine again.
They only waste valuable screen real estate.
@ЯegDwight They just shove one of the entertainingly starred items off the screen...
26
Whisky

Proposed Q&A site for connoisseurs and lovers of whisky/ey - be it Scotch, bourbon, rye, Tennessee, Irish, Canadian, Japanese, or any other style.

Currently in definition.

@freiheit my point exactly.
But I should be sleeping.
And judging by your handle, so should you.
@ЯegDwight I'm in California (US). I'm not even off work yet
@freiheit I am disturbed by the 18.5% of people who are also following cars...
OIC. Well, happy working then. Followed by happy offing.
Ride safely.
Ouvert et haut !
22:51
@voretaq7 But whisky and etiquette seem like a great pairing?
@freiheit absolutely!
Only a fine gentleman would be sipping whisky in the parlor with his comrades!
(and on that note I go home to find whisky :P)
