I'd say it's a long stretch from being good, but it's usually consistently enjoyable
 
@AlexA. the only reason i dont like it is the lack of a story line. Mostly all episodes are just out of random
 
@quartata, it has bad plotlines for the most part.
 
@Optimizer Yes, true.
 
And @AlexA.,
 
9:00 PM
same goes for other similar series like friends, HIMYM, Seinfeld etc. I just loose interest after 2-3 epis (1 season at max)
 
It's too bad they betray their characters just to make a sub-par joke roughly 10 times per episode.
 
what is arrested development?
 
Arrested Development is an American television sitcom created by Mitchell Hurwitz, which originally aired on Fox for three seasons from November 2, 2003 to February 10, 2006. A fourth season of 15 episodes was released on Netflix on May 26, 2013. The show follows the fictitious Bluth family, a formerly wealthy and habitually dysfunctional family. It is presented in a continuous format, incorporating handheld camera work and voice-over narration, as well as occasional archival photos and historical footage. The show also utilizes several long-running "easter egg" jokes throughout each season. Ron...
 
@RikerW That show reddit loves
well, one of them
 
At least some part of reddit loves everything.
Including the big bang theory
 
9:03 PM
Cultural homogenization is an aspect of cultural globalization, listed as one of its main characteristics, and refers to the reduction in cultural diversity through the popularization and diffusion of a wide array of cultural symbols — not only physical objects but customs, ideas and values. O'Connor defines it as "the process by which local cultures are transformed or absorbed by a dominant outside culture." Cultural homogenization has been called "perhaps the most widely discussed hallmark of global culture". In theory, homogenization could result in the breakdown of cultural barriers and the...
Reddit is the perfect example of this.
Everyone on reddit likes only what everyone else likes.
That's how memes are born.
 
But somehow, reddit manages to stay up to date on new shows?
What about the cavepeople that don't like tv because they have never seen it?
 
@RikerW There's a show for them too.
 
I wonder how many non-Redditors there are in here. I don't go on Reddit.
 
The Simpsons is an American animated sitcom created by Matt Groening for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series is a satirical depiction of a middle class American lifestyle epitomized by the Simpson family, which consists of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie. The show is set in the fictional town of Springfield and parodies American culture, society, television, and many aspects of the human condition. The family was conceived by Groening shortly before a solicitation for a series of animated shorts with the producer James L. Brooks. Groening created a dysfunctional family and named t...
@AlexA. I browse Reddit but I don't post.
 
I don't much. I have an account, but i never use it.
@quartata same.
 
9:05 PM
 
I dabble. Every now and then when I'm bored I'll browse it.
 
Reddit is not that huge really, especially if you only count frequent posters
 
@AlexA. Correction. Reddit is meaningless. Except when it isn't.
@overactor true. But I wonder how many accounts there are on reddit?
 
s/reddit/life/gi
 
@AlexA. what?
 
9:06 PM
Regex substitution
 
what does "gi" mean?
 
@RikerW global substitution ignore caps
 
Okay.
 
@AlexA. shush
 
What flavor of regex?
 
9:07 PM
Chocolate
 
@RikerW Any sane one.
 
That was a quick shush.
 
But Perl I suppose
 
Perl is half regex, half reddit, half monstrosity, and half very bad at adding fractions.
 
@RikerW Wow.
ಠ______ಠ
 
9:08 PM
> half reddit
?
 
I think you have too many halves

@Optimizer I think I finished the first season, but I can't remember
I know I made it through at least 5 episodes
 
9:09 PM
 
I noticed there are no Kerbal Space program themed challenges. This will soon be fixed.

@ThomasKwa read the past messages
 
@ThomasKwa yas pls do
 
If you can golf in minecraft, you can golf in KSP
 
One thing that gets me about Kekkai Sensen is that the entire city gets destroyed like every other episode. Next episode, they are just casually sitting at the cafe that has been destroyed three times already
 
9:10 PM
@Rainbolt ...that's a Trope. Lemme find it...
 
@RikerW Hmm, actually...
Someone built a 1 bit computer in KSP
 
We need a challenge for .
@ThomasKwa point proven
 
@RikerW I take partial responsibility for the MC golfs.
 
No wait, it was just a full adder
 
Still point proven
 
@FlagAsSpam link to your first one?
 
KSP probably can't be golfed in.
 
@El'endiaStarman PowerPuff Girls exploited that trope to the extreme. Until the movie came out. Which was a prequel to the series, so I guess the series could still exploit that trope.
 
Thanks @El'endiaStarman
 
Wah, TV Tropes doesn't one-box.
 
9:12 PM
<Papyrus> @RikerW You're blue now.
 
@El'endiaStarman That's a good thing... TV Tropes is a dangerous site.
 
@ThomasKwa it can't be worse than java
 
@TimmyD The Simpsons did too.
 
And so the punishment begins
Don't you ever talk shit about Perl again
 
@El'endiaStarman Yes. I guess I was explicitly referring to the "city is completely destroyed" flavor thereof.
 
9:13 PM
Thank you @Thatha. I will take that as a complement
 
Or you will be Thatha'd
 
<Papyrus> @RikerW Don't make me use my special attack.
 
@Rainbolt How many lines do you draw when you draw A? I draw 3, but @AlexA. counted 5 “distinct line segments”, so I used the same definition.
 
@TimmyD Ah, right.
 
Holy shit, you guys are active.
 
9:13 PM
@Timwi No, you're just unactive :p
 
@Timwi You're not here often enough! Also, hello!
 
Is it just me, bc @Thatha's comments show up with the word <Papyrus> before each letter?
Hi @Timwi.
 
Hi, hi, uhm... I don’t really know anyone here :)
 
Welcome to hell. c:
 
@quartata the only thing perl is good for is obfuscation contests.

This is the system: xp gives a specified amount of experience to a specified player with the syntax xp <amount> <player>....

 
The reason I was inactive was because I wrote an answer. I can’t do both at the same time!
 
That's my most popular.
 
@Timwi u no me helo i luv u
 
@FlagAsSpam As a Christian, I strongly disagree with this. :P
 
@Timwi Somewhere between infinite and three lines
 
9:15 PM
Hi @Timwi
 
Thanks @FlagAsSpam
 
@overactor: Hi! Any progress on your language?
 
@El'endiaStarman As a Christian, I was joking. c:
 
I wouldn't say you know me, but you know of me
 
@Rainbolt Surely we could put an upper bound at Graham's Number

@FlagAsSpam Oh good. :P
 
You're nothing.
It's been confirmed.
 
@Timwi Five distinct line segments, where the segments are broken at intersecting lines. However, I only draw three lines when writing the letter.
 
Is the tin solider a bot?

Yes

@Timwi Not really, I'm swamped with work and school projects at the moment.

You don't.
 
There is no assignment.
 
I did that just for you <3

Never.
 
@RikerW I don't make typos.

9:18 PM
Also, being the perl hater you are, I'm upping the timeout for you from 20 seconds to a minute.
 
I hate you
 
@RikerW You can always just do is:answer MineCraft
 
Rowlf the Dog is a Muppet character, a scruffy brown dog of indeterminate breed with a rounded black nose and long floppy ears. He was created and originally performed by Jim Henson. Rowlf is the Muppet Theatre's resident pianist, as well as one of the show's supporting cast members. Calm and wisecracking, his humor is characterized as deadpan and as such, is one of few Muppets who is rarely flustered by the show's prevalent mayhem. He is very easy going and a fan of classical music (particularly Beethoven) and musicals. Despite Kermit the Frog often being credited as the iconic Muppet, Rowlf was...
 
@RikerW That's what you get for talking smack about Perl
 
I don't think the bot is actually active in this room, I think Thatha is just trolling.

@AlexA. Oh, it is.
 
This room doesn't have a chatbot, right?
 
Oops.
 
@overactor No because Alex hates them.

@RikerW Parenthesis around the last one.
 
I brought it in just to punish Riker for talking smack about Perl
 
Thanks.

@TimmyD And I'm a big fan of TBBT...
 
Triple-pinged.

@AlexA. too bad, but makes sense
 
@FlagAsSpam Oh baby a triple

@Dennis: Wanna play Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock? ;-)
 
@overactor The bots live in their own room called Beep Boop Maggot if you want to try them out in there.
 
@AlexA. Actually that's just for testing really.
 
@Timwi That usually ends in ties...
 
Eventually, Thatha will live in the 2^31th Byte
 
This room is so active I can’t even go and eat something when I’m hungry.
 
9:22 PM
Nope.
 
Seriously, is anyone else having problems with @Thatha's comments? I am seeing way to much "<Papyrus>"
 
That's why we all are starving. Because we can't eat. c:
 
@RikerW Papyrus is a special prefix used by the secret !blue command.

I should add to the filter list
 
@Dennis I'm gonna silent ping the bot real quick to see if I have the same problem as @RikerW. Is this approved?
 
Hm.
 
@Thatha Please do not bot in here.
 
!leave
 
9:25 PM
Thx bb
 
I only needed to show RikerW the errors of his ways real quick
 
@FlagAsSpam If you mean stealth pings, those do not exist anymore.
 
Sorry, i forgot the no botting.
The perl hater tag were from this:
 
@FlagAsSpam I was manually activating !blue
He wasn't stealth pinging
 
function post(x){document.getElementById('input').value=x;document.getElementById('sayit-button').click()}
var last_message = "";
function f(){
post("[tag:perl-haters]");

}
setInterval(f,1000);
Copied from @ETHproductions bot I helped him test
@Dennis then why is there still a chatroom called StealthPingers Unite!
 
9:27 PM
@RikerW I don't know.
 
brb deleting chat room

I pretty much chased everyone out of there with !blue, at any rate.
 
what does !blue do?
 
Adds the user who activates it to the blue list.
 
What is the blue list
 
9:28 PM
Means the bot gets to torment you.
It was programmed to stop stealth pings because people were pinging me with them in that room
 
and how do i remove myself?
 
Any message with a link that has an at sign in it gets !blue activated
@RikerW You don't.
 
@quartata why you?
 
You're now part of the Blue Man Group. No way in, no way out.
 
@RikerW I don't know.
 
9:29 PM

@Dennis Is the deed done?

9:31 PM
just about to post that too @quartata
anybody else watch star trek?
 
@RikerW Fascinating, Captain.
 
My real name is actually Riker.
 
@RikerW Better question to ask is "does anyone here not watch star trek?"
 
@quartata The image URL is awesome: "404_funny_hats.jpg"
 
^
 
9:31 PM
@RikerW TOS, occasionally TNG.
 
@RikerW TNG, DS9 and VOY.
 
I can't stand TOS
I like DS9
 
>:O
 
I like NG and OS
 
and TNG
 
9:32 PM
OS is better though
 
@Dennis :/
 
Thanks. I should make a challenge for that
 
@Dennis ftfy

From another mod?
 
Oui

Can I just make a empty post tagged ?

@RikerW DO NOT
 
A starman that does not watch Star Trek?
 
@Doorknob will whack you with a double trout
 
@El'endiaStarman What do you have against Star Trek
why double trout
 
9:34 PM
I watch Star Wars!
 
Ew.
 
@quartata fine
 
@RikerW Did you know that the chat reply button exists?
 
And read a lot more, actually.
 
@RikerW Because one isn't enough

Also if you make a thing I'll whack everyone involved with a large trout
 
DS9 > VOY > TNG > TOS > ENT
 
Oct 22 at 16:36, by Dennis
Also, if you actually create and on main, Doorknob may slap you with a large trout.
 
@TimmyD That's exactly right. Not one error.

I watched one episode of ENT. I hated it.
 
You get the idea
 
Doorknob likes trout.
Got my mouse back!
 
@TimmyD TOS > TNG > actual poo > All other Trek
 
I think this one is my favorite

@El'endiaStarman are you googling trivia questions?

@El'endiaStarman Threshold, a Voyager episode
 
Nope. It's one of the very few episodes I've seen.
 
@El'endiaStarman That's sad.
 
@quartata I almost forgot
 
@quartata Yeah, that's one of the worst Voyager episodes available
 
9:39 PM
@RikerW Don't tempt me.
 
All Voyager is worst Voyager

Ha, bad luck of the draw, I guess.
 
Green curry is best curry
 
Doctor Who was the opposite. First episode I saw was the one where the Weeping Angels were introduced.
 
9:40 PM
@AlexA. This is also true.
 
They also danced around the issue in "All Good Things ..." (the last TNG episode) by having the futuristic ships go faster than "traditional" warp 10 since they redid the scale
