OH MY FUCKING GOSH

Game of Thrones is on tonight

@spugsley Have you read the books?

@Wipqozn reading them now :)

@spugsley I'd avoid mentioning that to lesspopmorefiz. He likes spoiling the books for people just to be a dick,.

@spugsley I still have to get caught up on the second season, I'm so ashamed of myself.

12:03 AM

due to him being bitter over the books taking so long to finish.

dry laugh you're already too late.

user2334

Luke Skywalker is Han Solo's father in Book 4, Page 1,799

@Mana Oh, I know he's ruined it for you. I was there! It was hilarious.

he broke me.

@Wipqozn I am going to start making stuff up about the later on in the series. I'll tell him I got an advanced copy of the next book.

12:04 AM

but one day I'll break him.

@TimStone DO IT NAOOOOO

@MarkTrapp I really want to watch Italian Spiderman now.

@spugsley Animation Domination first!

I heard the leveling cap is 81. Does that mean from there I won't be able to increase my health, magicka or stamina from then on?

@Wipqozn What if they run?

@OrigamiRobot I've always found that tranquilizer works fairly well.

@Wipqozn scribbles notes

@Wipqozn Can I channel reddit and note that that is a repost?

12:32 AM

@YiJiang Everything is a repost. Everything.

Mar 22 at 13:05, by OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria We already established this.

@OrigamiRobot I had a science teacher once who I guess lived on a farm. One day he brought in a video he wanted to show the class, and it was him in a barn, chasing chicks around with a stick.

@agent86 Texas.

another day he brought in a dead cat he'd found and he spent the entire class taking video of it. I don't really know what that had to do with us.

@StrixVaria Actually, Maryland.

@agent86 Was the teacher from West Virginia?

12:36 AM

he once threw a pair of scissors into the class too. Heavy metal ones.

@StrixVaria I don't believe so, but I can't say that I really asked that question.

I had a science teacher who commuted from West Virginia to New Jersey every week to teach 8th graders.

He was crazy.

that's... dedication?

user15026

@agent86 I had a teacher who would throw erasers

I don't know, but he was a rocket scientist. He told us every day.

user15026

and one who, when a kid fell asleep in class, put a wastebasket over his (the kid's) head and banged on it with a ruler

12:39 AM

I had a teacher that through 1KG weights at the wall to demonstrate force.

user15026

@Wipqozn O.O

He also did a similiar thing for gravity in order to break the tiles in his class room so the school would be forced to buy him new ones. He really hated the tiles.

My high school science teacher once apologized to a TV after backing into it.

He also made brownie batter directly on a table where he had spilled some kind of acid the week before. No one but him ate any of the brownies.

Should I be thankful that my current selection of science teachers all sounds relatively normal?

user15026

@StrixVaria Yeah I would stay the heck away from those for sure

12:42 AM

@StrixVaria Well, it depends on the concentration and how well the table was cleaned up afterwards

@YiJiang It sure does, but you'd expect him not to take that risk.

I don't think 0.1M HCl spilled then cleaned up would be too dangerous :P

The best was when he was demonstrating how to use the shower and accidentally drenched himself in his work clothes.

The chemical wash shower, obviously.

@Mana 404

@Mana The ending is the best part.

@GnomeSlice As it should be.

@Mana HAH. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA

HA

@GnomeSlice I am going to slap your face with my face.

3

er.

wait.

@Mana Please tell me that joke was intentional.

12:46 AM

@Mana You want to make out with Gnomeslice?

@Mana now it's a party!

@GnomeSlice That joke was intentional.

@StrixVaria define "some kind of acid"

I wasn't going to add it to my favourites.

Until the ending.

@NickT It was too long ago for me to say with any certainty which acid it was.

12:49 AM

you could add a trace amount of most mineral acids to whatever food without much effect; a little HF in some brownies isn't going to do anything because all that shit is gonna buffer it so hard

@Mana Is that what the kids are calling it nowdays? scribbles fanfic notes

@AshleyNunn That's amazing.

@OrigamiRobot loves Twilight fanfiction.

user15026

@GnomeSlice It was mostly alarming - up there with the French teacher who tried to teach us the French words for fighting/punching/kicking by demonstrating on a student (that didnt work so well). Mind you this is the same teacher who pulled a kid his arm through an office window for no real reason

@Mana I forget, did I show you this?

@AshleyNunn Who pulled a kid what?

user15026

12:55 AM

@GnomeSlice The principal's office had a wall that faced a hallway, this wall had a couple windows in so he could keep an eye on the hallway or whatever

user15026

there was a kid looking in one of the windows one day while the principal and hte french teacher were talking

@Mana you need to tell @spugsley about your epic fanfic project.

@AshleyNunn No, I mean your sentence didn't actually make sense, you missed a word or two, I think.

user15026

....ah yeah

user15026

I did miss a word or two

user15026

12:56 AM

brain and fingers are not in sync it seems

Welcome to life my.

user15026

pulled a kid by his arm through the window, is what I meant

@AshleyNunn ....Hahahahah. Pulled him into it, or out of it?

user15026

Into - his rational was "if you want to listen then stop creeping and come in"...

@OrigamiRobot I'd be surprised if there was anyone in this chatroom unaware of my epic fanfic project.

1:00 AM

@AshleyNunn LOL.

@Mana it's the one about Hitler, right?

also, ispugsley is OTP anyways

user15026

needless to say that was the end of the...fifth, I think, French teacher of my eighth grade year. We went through a total of 8....9 if you include the two co-op students that taught us for a while as separate entitites

so they're not really involved that much.

@AshleyNunn Oh, he was fired for that?

@Mana Your what?

user15026

1:01 AM

yanking a kid through a window? yeah

I just discovered that the DECT phones we've been using for nearly half a year now didn't come with rechargeable batteries :|

user15026

1-4 had breakdowns, 5th was the window puller/student fighter, 6 taught us archeology instead for a couple of weeks, 7 had a breakdown, 8-9 were high school co-ops who just let us watch Ananas videos.

@AshleyNunn pineapple?

I don't know why it didn't explode and kill us all

@OrigamiRobot This got a downvote.

1:04 AM

@StrixVaria I closed it because I misread it, is all.

@RavenDreamer Fair enough.

I thought it was a "Why did the Devs do X" question

@NickT Yes. This:

Téléfrançais

Téléfrançais was a French language children's television show, produced by TVOntario from 1984 until 1986. The series of 30 ten-minute episodes has become a popular teaching tool, and is used by many educators to teach French as a second language to elementary school children. The show's name is a portmanteau for télévision and français. The show follows the adventures of two children named Jacques (Jacques Dell) and Sophie (Colombe Demers), and Ananas (voiced by René Lemieux), a talking pineapple who resides in a junkyard. Other recurring characters are Pilote, Ginette, the Annonceur, M...

Which is why I did not respond to your (outdated) comment

@RavenDreamer Called it.

@StrixVaria Don't make me sad.

@OrigamiRobot I'm especially sad because I was exactly 40 rep from 20k, now I won't hit 20k exactly.

I'm 42 away from 20k now.

@Mana OTP?

Geez, something's wrong with me. I totally thought it was tomorrow.

@StrixVaria "Why did they design it that way?"

@RavenDreamer According to SE, it is.

I called it. I win. I WIN!

@OrigamiRobot One true pairing

@Mana Oh, I just meant to give her context to my joke.

1:07 AM

I seriously don't understand why people hate that question so much though.

Q: In what order should I take levels in Holy Fire and its synergies to maximize damage?

1:08 AM

Obviously, after maxing Holy Fire and its synergies, the damage will be the same regardless of which skills I took in which order. If I want to max the damage for my Holy Fire Paladin during play, however, what order should I take points in Holy Fire, Resist Fire, and Salvation (if at all before...

diablo-2

@StrixVaria PFFFFFFFFT. One downvote. Hardly 'much' hate going on there...

@GnomeSlice It was mostly ignored before, but @OrigamiRobot was venting because it's apparently the 'least lame' diablo 2 question asked for this contest and it's getting the least attention.

I thought people would eat it up since it's all about min/maxing.

skovacs1

@StrixVaria Maybe it's being ignored because people don't like paladins.

@skovacs1 People definitely don't like Holy Fire.

D2 has devolved into archetypes only :(

Which is why I am going to refuse to use any archetypes that emerge in D3.

There's so much fluidity in that skill system, I will definitely be able to come up with something relatively unique.

I feel like playing Diablo 2 again now.

1:17 AM

@StrixVaria I'm sure you've watched all the videos about viable vs optimal

@OrigamiRobot I watched all of the videos that I could find. Some of them mentioned this.

I like being useful, but I also like being creative.

So I really like the abundance of viable builds.

@StrixVaria YOU'RE GOING MUT ROGUE OR YOU'RE OUT OF THE GUILD

@Mana Link to wherever you're reading these comics.

They basically said "Yes there will be optimal builds but it will be by like 1% vs 50%"

1:19 AM

@NickT I don't play WoW and this is why.

@StrixVaria it's rare that any of them are SFW, just FYI

@NickT I have no reason why you're telling me this.

I just want to read the rest of them because the two I've seen have been hilarious.

@Mana heeheehee

@StrixVaria I would, only I would have to attach so many NSFW warnings...

@Mana Which comic?

1:20 AM

Oglaf.

@Mana That's...uh...not what I would have expected from the two I saw.

Heehee, I love that comic.

And yeah... it's rare for a SFW one.

@NickT Ohhh that makes a lot more sense now.

@StrixVaria the first one has "cumsprites" in it

Yeah ok @Mana filter the comics for me.

1:20 AM

@StrixVaria Lots of them are funny, but obviously I can only link the ones that don't feature large amounts of nudity.

the follow-up to the labyrinth one

@Mana I just seen the latest comic... and all I have to say is oh my...

@NickT Image not found is the best kind of not found.

site must not like hotlinks I guess

@NickT yeah, that's what I've noticed.

1:23 AM

Most of these just looks like an excuse for her to draw boobs.

@Wipqozn *her

@Mana That's totally what I said

You're crazy.

also, male genitalia features much more prominently in the comic. Go figure.

it's not too disproportional though. Everybody gets a little love.

Everybody.

@StrixVaria I felt my question was fairly unlame.

1:33 AM

@Fluttershy You'll have to take that up with @OrigamiRobot.

What was the question, though?

I don't think I saw it.

Q: How is Deadly Strike calculated?

5

When I was playing on my Zealadin, a friend of mine gave me a sword that had the Deadly Strike bonus applied to it. I'm not entirely sure this sword was legit (it could have very well been a modded weapon, but I don't even know how to tell). The thing that interested me was that, by the time I h...

diablo-2

Oh yeah that is a good one.

And I already upvoted it.

@Fluttershy I didn't see that one.

@StrixVaria I'm just glad it got me my one entry into the D3 contest. >.>

It's not something I instantly recognize as well known.

1:35 AM

I have 6 entries I think...

I really want that D3 t-shirt.

I thought this was a good answer but then lots of people happened to know the same stuff :/

I just went with 1 entrie, no point in being greedy

@Blem To be fair, I didn't answer these questions just to get contest entries. I answered questions I knew the answer to as I saw them.

@Blem Tell that to some of the people with like... 10 entries.

27 more rep for 20k...

@StrixVaria 993 to 10k.

1:39 AM

what i dont like about this contest is that i saw a lot of good answers reach 4 and then it looked like people stopped voting on them

@Blem Yeah seriously.

Stuff like this bothers me... "I'm posting an answer 15 minutes later than the already correct answer. But mine's prettier. Give me ALL the rep!"

Like this one...

@Fluttershy This.

@Fluttershy Images win.

@StrixVaria Or this one...

Also, thank you to whoever gave me a second chance. <3

1:41 AM

@Fluttershy shrug I don't think encouraging fastest gun in the west is the best thing to do, but your votes are yours to do what you want with.

I don't see the problem. Images, when used correctly, can provide a very high quality answer.

and just because someone else has posted a correct answer doesn't mean no one else is allowed to post an answer.

@Mana I just think, if the answer posted is already correct, you shouldn't try and hijack the rep. People downvote duplicate answers all the time. Just because user B added a picture doesn't mean his answer isn't just a duplicate.

And the user could have started work on there answer before yours was even posted, and just took longer to finish it.

@Wipqozn Yeah, I can understand that if the answers are ~5 minutes apart. But 15 minutes? For one picture?

TWENTY THOUSAND REP!!!

5

1:43 AM

@Fluttershy I see no reason to downvote duplicate answers.

►

Prepare yourselves for the fiery vengeance of delete votes in the hands of me!

@Fluttershy If the answer was voted to the top and accepted, how is he "hijacking the rep"? They simply posted a more clear answer.

@Mana Exactly.

@OrigamiRobot People do it all the time, usually with comments like "This adds nothing to the original answer and should be a comment."

1:44 AM

breathes again

A: Where do I find my 26 character CD key?

Take this answer @StrixVaria posted as an example:

10

You can log in to battle net and go to https://us.battle.net/account/management/ (eu or us shouldn't matter) Click on Diablo II, you'll be taken to the page with the key(screenshot is in Italian, but that shouldn't be a problem):

And people seem to think it's the better answer, based on the way voting went.

@Fluttershy Yeah, that`s what happened for mine, here: gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/64872/…

That image makes the answer a lot clearer, something the poster said.

this one is mine that i think needs some more votes (both mine and the other at 4)

1:45 AM

I spent time formatting nicely.

@Mana I'm just voicing my opinion, not trying to start a debate or an argument.

@Wipqozn chicas de giotto?

@fbueckert I actually like the formatting on yours better than a wall of blockquote...

I personally think this answer is better than the 30 second earlier one because I linked to the relevant events for supplementary information. Others disagree.

Note: That was NOT an indirect hint to upvote my answer... :P

1:46 AM

I won't disagree that some users will essentially just copy-paste another answer and then throw on a picture to whore for rep, but I don't think that's the norm.

@Fluttershy Actually, that`s exactly what I had. And then I reformatted.

@Fluttershy And if you voice an opinion and I disagree with it, I think it's okay for me to debate it. That's how we come to understand the way things should be better.

If I disagree with it, but don't voice my disagreement, how could I ever come to understand why you have the opinion you do?

@Fluttershy Such a fluttershy thing to say :P Didn't you learn anything from Putting your Hoof down?

@Wipqozn Yeah, I learned that being a bitch causes more problems than it's worth. Which is why I'm removing myself from the situation.

@OrigamiRobot Obviously the community found the mod that was linked to be more useful because it actually allowed them to do what they wanted rather than some background information on the intended way to face the 4 ubers.

@MarkTrapp It's only a Steam key.

@skovacs1 Obviously.

@Ullallulloo Oh. It's probably not that then, even if the mystical downloader does something other than download a text file with the key in it.

user2334

Nope, just a Steam key.

Downloader gives you a Steam key and how to install in Steam.

Still not a bad deal.
