@Dragonrage vegetarians? what?

Dragonrage

@AshleyNunn no idea. maybe someone met a canadian that was a vegetarian and assumed they all were

that and you guys have maple syrup

GodEmperorDune

@Dragonrage to be fair, maple syrup is awesome

RedRiderX

And vegetarian.

Dragonrage

23:05

@GodEmperorDune it is, and its the main thing people know about canada, other than the snow, the moose, and the politeness, and maple syrup is vegetarian

Unionhawk

Yeah, I mean these idiots are Canadians

Dragonrage

> Canadian bacon is just ham.

Well. Isn’t all bacon essentially ham?

Frank

Chippies

@Dragonrage but moose is anything but vegetarian

Frank

My painting goes well!

Chippies

23:07

@Frank Wow, it looks like a photograph!

Dragonrage

@Chippies they dont eat the moose. that would be like californians eating bears

user15026

@Dragonrage If by Canadian bacon you mean back bacon it is not the same as ham

Unionhawk

@Dragonrage No

Chippies

@Dragonrage except not really, because moose is more like a giant really dumb deer

Canadians do in fact eat moose

Dragonrage

@Chippies but it symbolizes canada

user15026

23:08

@Dragonrage If someone gave me moose, I'd eat it

Chippies

@Dragonrage I thought that was maple syrup

Unionhawk

No, the maple leaf symbolizes canada

They eat those too

GodEmperorDune

@Dragonrage but they have the maple syrup symbol on their flag!

Unionhawk

I assume

Dragonrage

you guys are not helping find the logic behind this stereotype

Unionhawk

23:09

Because it's false

Frank

@Chippies Can't tell if sarcasm or not...

Chippies

@Unionhawk they do, in the form of maple tree syrup

Unionhawk

Like I said, Epic Meal Time is Canadian

Dragonrage

@Unionhawk that's beside the point

Unionhawk

@Dragonrage It is literally the entire point

Chippies

23:09

@Frank it was a joke based on the multiple meanings of the word "painting"

Unionhawk

It is not adjacent to the point, it is the point

user15026

I can't think of anything you're outright not allowed to hunt. But I am probably forgetting things. Loons, maybe?

Dragonrage

user15026

@Dragonrage Oh, that's not what I was thinking of

Chippies

@AshleyNunn probably anything you can't get a license for? Hunting seems to require licenses from what I understand

Unionhawk

23:10

American Canadian Bacon is dumb

GodEmperorDune

@AshleyNunn the most dangerous game, of course

user15026

@Chippies Well, yeah, you need licenses for hunting anything here

Chippies

@Dragonrage is that the American Canadian bacon?

Dragonrage

@AshleyNunn humans?

user15026

but I don't think there's anything you can't get a licence for

It's not Canada's fault that Americans are WRONG

in, this case

@AshleyNunn Cornmeal-crusted pork?

Chippies

@AshleyNunn oh damn, now I'm hungry, that looks awesome

Dragonrage

@AshleyNunn never seen that, but it looks like it could be quite tasty

user15026

@Yuuki It's peameal bacon!

user15026

23:12

(Okay it's cornmeal not peameal but we call it peameal bacon because it USED to be peameal not cornmeal)

Unionhawk

Speaking of bacon, I should go grocery shopping for snack and breakfast food

You have 6 friends playing Dark Souls 3 right now!

Dragonrage

@Chippies so, you have to get like 9 packs to get the whole solution

two bugs

AND NONE OF THEM ARE @Wipqozn

Yuuki

@AshleyNunn Oh yeah, I think you mentioned that once and I was wondering if it was cornmeal back then too.

user15026

23:13

It's delicious.

Yuuki

I'm not a big fan of cornmeal myself, but I'd totally be up for giving it a try.

Chippies

wait, nvm, math is hard

Yuuki

Dangit now I want a steak

Peameal bacon

Peameal bacon (also known as cornmeal bacon) is a type of back bacon made from lean boneless pork loin, trimmed fine, wet cured, and rolled in cornmeal. Its development is credited to a Toronto, Canada, ham and bacon curer, William Davies, whose idea was taken on by emigrees from Wiltshire, England, who settled in Canada. The name "peameal bacon" derives from the historic practice of rolling the cured and trimmed boneless loin in dried and ground yellow peas to extend shelf life. Since the end of World War II it has been rolled in ground yellow cornmeal. Peameal bacon sandwiches are often considered...

Oh

Yuuki

@AshleyNunn I also remember talking about the unhelpful thumbnail last time.

Unionhawk

I understand now

Dragonrage

23:15

@AshleyNunn it still isnt "bacon" persay. its more just ham-pork than bacon-pork

GodEmperorDune

i would totally do that but i don't want to pay international rates

user15026

@Yuuki Yeah, it's not the best

Dragonrage

bacon is supposed to be in strips and crunchy

Yuuki

user15026

@Dragonrage That's just different bacon

Unionhawk

23:16

No Yuuki stahp

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki oh i miss texas

Unionhawk

@Dragonrage This is like saying pork chops are ham because they are not bacon

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune Funny thing is, that's Seattle.

Unionhawk

And that's not how ham works

Dragonrage

@Unionhawk fixed it

GodEmperorDune

23:17

@Yuuki oh i've been to a few BBQ places in texas that charge by the pound and give you a tray of food

user15026

It's still bacon, tho

Chippies

@Unionhawk Bridge is ham because it is not bacon

Unionhawk

BACON IS ALL PORK

user15026

Any butcher will tell you that.

Unionhawk

YOU CAN'T BE BETWEEN PORK AND BACON

Yuuki

23:17

@GodEmperorDune Oh yeah, I know of two places in Houston that do that. And I don't go to a lot of restaurants.

Bacon

Bacon is a meat product prepared from a pig and usually cured. It is first cured using large quantities of salt, either in a brine or in a dry packing; the result is fresh bacon (also known as green bacon). Fresh bacon may then be further dried for weeks or months in cold air, or it may be boiled or smoked. Fresh and dried bacon is typically cooked before eating, often by frying. Boiled bacon is ready to eat, as is some smoked bacon, but may be cooked further before eating. Bacon is prepared from several different cuts of meat. It is usually made from side and back cuts of pork, except in the United...

Q: Red, yellow and green area while recruiting armies

When I use my pre-made army models to recruit, my provinces changing color to green, yellow or red. It's obvious that green means you have enough ressources to buy your model and red you don't. But what does it means precisely when my provinces are yellow ?

@twobugs I feel like it's pretty much a dupe of this: gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/102122/… but I suspect I will get argued with

@AshleyNunn we'll VTC so there are no allegations of mod abuse

Also, Far Beyond the Stars is a weird DS9 ep.

btw @AshleyNunn if you start playing CoC and you fix your clan castle, ping me if you want to join my clan.

two bugs

@AshleyNunn I agree, pretty much. But people have started bringing outside game evidence into the current question so I'm not sure everyone would agree

user15026

@Dragonrage I probably will start it later after I finish my spumoni and DS9 time :P

Dragonrage

also a tip, its generally best to upgrade all buildings/troops/traps/walls before upgrading the townhall

user15026

@Dragonrage Good to know :)

user15026

23:34

@twobugs Yeah, that's why I didn't mod-hammer it

GodEmperorDune

@Dragonrage if i wanted to build a "troll base" in CoC, how would I do that?

two bugs

@AshleyNunn You're a little too responsible with that mod hammer :P

user15026

nah, it's more I don't have it in me to want to argue it

user15026

I get tired of arguing :P

@AshleyNunn modhammering uses spoons?

23:36

No I mean that I would certainly enjoy if you did hammer it from orbit

Dragonrage

@GodEmperorDune um, you could just build one defense i suppose, but it depends on how you want to troll

two bugs

But not hammering it is the much wiser choice, just less fun for me

Dragonrage

@twobugs how about some of @kalina's fire?

GodEmperorDune

@Dragonrage i remember someone posting a COC question that mentioned "troll bases" as background context and was intrigued

Dragonrage

@GodEmperorDune like you can set it up to look easy, but have all your traps in the place they attack from which is kind of troll

or you can just have super random setups that have no rhyme or reason

Yuuki

GodEmperorDune

@Dragonrage interesting

user15026

@GodEmperorDune I just anticipate a lot of arguing if I mod close because OMG MEAN MOD WE ARE HAVING FUN WITH THIS MEME AND THIS HNQ

Dragonrage

but considering that troll bases are much weaker in general, and if they attack you, you will lose more resources, so in essence, you are just really trolling yourself

you used to be able to sell buildings. so some people sold a bunch of random things just because

@Dragonrage that's usually how it is

you would thing that a question with 72k views would have more than 9 upvotes

I'm trying to play Dark Souls 3 on my PC and my controller is not detected at all. My controller is able to navigate Steam's Big Picture mode just fine, so I don't think this is a problem with my controller or the receiver. It works in other games as well. What can I do?
