The numbers have been changed to protect the silly.

<Chalain> Reminder to room: Chalain's phone number is 555-5555.
<Chalain> If you don't know the area code, you don't get to call.
<Chalain> ...but it's 555.

Vorn

<ToxicFrog> What is it with people not reading the manual?
<ToxicFrog> "Durr! I think I'll just type in random function signatures until I get something the compiler will accept!"
<UndeadAnno> Pfft.
<UndeadAnno> Sounds like something I do on a regular basis.
[11:29:52] <ToxicFrog> Do you then go on IRC and ask for help because your confused, gibbon-like thrashing has failed to produce a working program?
<UndeadAnno> No...
<ToxicFrog> Then you aren't part of the problem
<UndeadAnno> Then I read the manual. <_<
<ToxicFrog> Some people, however, go on IRC and say "hey, I'm trying to make a C function you can call from Lua like foo { ... }, but lua_Table * foo(lua_Table *) isn't working"
<ToxicFrog> And then I have to stab them in the face.
<GeekSoldier> how about: "I'm trying to rewrite the linux kernel in QBasic, and am having trouble initializing any sort of bootstrap code. HELP!"
<ToxicFrog> Haven't seen that one yet.
<GeekSoldier> I'm trying to rewrite the linux kernel in QBasic, and am having trouble initializing any sort of bootstrap code. HELP!
* ToxicFrog applies thirty centimeters of sharpened steel to GS's brainmeats
<GeekSoldier> all I have so far is:
<GeekSoldier> 10 print "isolinux 2.6.2"
<GeekSoldier> what should I do next?
<Pi> Boot Windows Vista.
<Vornicus> A cruel fate, but well earned.

<ErikMesoy> Also, I can shoot dragons with EB.
<AnnoDomini> With -4 to most active things?
<ChrisAsmadi> It's probably immune
<ErikMesoy> Dragon. Touch AC.
<AnnoDomini> ErikMesoy: Spell Resistance?
<ErikMesoy> Not all dragons have that IIRC
<AnnoDomini> This one has Frightful Presence, hence it's at least a Young Adult.
<AnnoDomini> Those do have SR.
<AnnoDomini> Dragons gain Frightful Presence, Spellcasting and Spell Resistance at puberty.
<ErikMesoy> Stop it. You're giving me nasty mental images.
<AnnoDomini> What?
<ErikMesoy> Dragon puberty. Hormone surges, pimples, lots of sheer silliness.
<Reiver> Hmm. Just learning how to control their arcane power...
<Reiver> I wonder if they have the magic equivalent of wet dreams?
<Reiver> And, if we extend the metaphor, does this mean that older dragons really are better lovers? <g>
* AnnoDomini just imagined something. >_<
* AnnoDomini goes get the brain bleach.
<ErikMesoy> SEE?
* Reiver ...
<Reiver> Ohmygods.
<Attilla> Go to sleep, Reiver.
<Reiver> Everyone knows Dragons Can Mate With Bloody Well Anything, right?
* ErikMesoy pops over to #egs for more brain bleach, hands it out.
<Reiver> That's because they reproduce via magic
<Remmon> No, they reproduce via sexual activity
<Reiver> Sorcerous magic comes from dragon spooge
<ErikMesoy> LMAO
<Remmon> You might want to pour some of that brain bleach over Reiver
* AnnoDomini just imagined a material power-up component.
<Remmon> And Anno might need more as well now
<Reiver> And now, I bid ye farewell, with just what 'eschew magic materials' uses as a substitute. Internalising the source, as it were...
<ErikMesoy> Someone needs to post this in the spam thread or the random encounter thread somehow.
<Reiver> This, of course, is why female sorcerors are essentially required to dress slutty - they can't make the stuff themselves, so they have to outsource. <g>
<ErikMesoy> Okay, the nasty mental images have now gone away in favor of hilarious mental images, but please stop it nonetheless. Because now you're giving me ideas for bad fantasy porn fics instead.
<Attilla> Man, St. Valentine's Day doesn't hit the nerd population well, does it?

<Attilla> Yay. Abandoned uranium mine.
<Attilla> Some of it went off the scale (of 500 counts/sec)
<gnohate> Been on a field trip?
<Attilla> Yep!
<gnohate> Trying out toys?
<Attilla> Maaaybe
<Demonius> i'd say thats only rem-otely interesting
* Attilla throws Demonius down the mineshaft.
<Demonius> ok, it wasnt that good.
<gnohate> But not that bad either. I'd say it's in a Gray area.
<UndeadAnno> >_<
<gnohate> (See! Now /that/ joke was totally rad!)
<UndeadAnno> >_<
<Attilla> Becq! Becq with the terrible puns!

<Chalain> The Man is a hot sauce that has sex with other hot sauces, if by "has sex with" you understand me to mean "gang rapes in prison".
<Chalain> It is hand-made by Gene, a superhero whose superpower is that he hand-makes The Man. By day, he is the mild-mannered proprietor of Dixie's BBQ Shack.

<Roscoe> FEAR NO MORE, MEN.
<Roscoe> LAMENT NO MORE, WOMEN.
<Roscoe> YOUR ROSCOE HAS RETURNED UNTO YOU.
<TheDagda> Who are you again?

<EvilDarkLord> Has Arz yet required that people take something from BoEF?
<ErikMesoy> Hahahahaha
<Alien> ...
<AbuDhabi> EvilDarkLord: Not yet, but I expect we'll get some loot from there.
<Reiver> BOEF?
<ilf_miffed> Huh.
<ilf_miffed> Book of Erotic Fantasy
<Reiver> omg
<Reiver> Power Word: Orgasm
<ilf_miffed> ORGASMIC TOUCH
<Reiver> The reason weedy little 8 str, 8 cha wizards get all the girls.
<AbuDhabi> Reiver: Only the low level girls, though, or the ones that have taken sufficient damage to be affected by this Word spell.
<Reiver>
<Reiver> God damnit, Anno
<AbuDhabi> Quickened Disintegrate! And only THEN Power Word: Orgasm!
<Reiver> I did not need the mental image of a girl who needed to take 'sufficient damage in order for the orgasm to work'

Edited for brevity.

<Derakon> This happens when you crawl under that floating platform and then try to stand.
<Derakon> The platform ejects you upwards.

[...]

<Derakon> Anyway, fixed, by saying "Look, an upwards ejection vector when the bottom of my sprite is below the block in question is just silly."
<Derakon> (especially when I was just crawling a moment ago)
* Consul writes down "upwards ejection vector" for later use.
<McMartin> Unsanitary
* Derakon facepalms.
