00:08.57 | Dillonator407 | hi |
00:13.46 | Dillonator407 | anybody? |
00:17.19 | Liquid_Ink | Hello |
00:18.16 | Dillonator407 | hi! |
00:20.58 | DrodoEmpire | Hey there |
00:21.14 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: Interesting question |
00:21.34 | Dillonator407 | whats the question? |
00:21.38 | DrodoEmpire | Some monuments, like Stonehenge, kept their religious significance for a long while after the original builders is the thing |
00:21.50 | DrodoEmpire | [20:04] <Wormy_> I wonder why stonehenge and similar famous sites weren't dismantled by later peoples and religions, or for stone in some farmer's wall |
00:22.06 | DrodoEmpire | (I think the Celts revered it anyway) |
00:22.16 | Wormy_ | I wonder why god fearing Christians didn't destroy it |
00:22.18 | DrodoEmpire | Though, the coming of Christianity could've easily seen its demise as a pagan monument |
00:22.19 | Dillonator407 | interesting question |
00:22.21 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah exactly |
00:22.38 | Hachiman | Wasn't Stonehenge moved at some point? |
00:22.50 | DrodoEmpire | The Pyramids were preserved as they utterly astounded every civilisation that came across them, so they kept it around for cultural reasons at least |
00:22.52 | Dillonator407 | maybe they saw it as a useless pile of rocks |
00:23.00 | Wormy_ | Maybe they adopted it into their own mythology |
00:23.05 | Dillonator407 | maybe |
00:23.18 | Hachiman | Perhaps the Christians feared the monument and no one could bring themselves to dismantle it so they left it alone |
00:23.19 | DrodoEmpire | That's probably what happened with successive pagan religions |
00:23.23 | DrodoEmpire | Possibly |
00:23.35 | DrodoEmpire | Is it in a particularly underinhabited area? |
00:23.42 | DrodoEmpire | I can't recall |
00:23.58 | Dillonator407 | hmm maybe |
00:24.07 | Dillonator407 | idk either i dont know much about it |
00:24.08 | Wormy_ | Well it sits in the Salisbury plain, which I think is chald downland. Very dry and hard to farm |
00:24.14 | Wormy_ | chalk |
00:24.16 | DrodoEmpire | Chinese monuments, at least before the Communists, were pretty well preserved except the oldest of the old |
00:24.24 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
00:24.34 | DrodoEmpire | Could've been that many Christians just didn't settle near it |
00:24.46 | DrodoEmpire | So they didn't go through the trouble of destroying it |
00:24.51 | Hachiman | I know that Christianity itself adopted traditions from a load of Pagan cultures and religions - such as Christmas and whatnot from Yule and depictions of demons and devils and such from Pagan deities |
00:24.55 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:25.02 | Wormy_ | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salisbury_Plain |
00:25.13 | DrodoEmpire | The Saints are often seen as a replacement for the Greco-Roman gods |
00:25.22 | DrodoEmpire | With some saints taking direct functions from the gods |
00:25.46 | Dillonator407 | interesting |
00:26.31 | Wormy_ | Another point of interest is the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uffington_White_Horse, which is 3000 years old and needs constant maintenance |
00:26.35 | DrodoEmpire | Well if you have any Catholic friends of family, especially older people, they often have depictions, figurines, or even full-on shrines dedicated to saints that they may hold onto or pray to |
00:26.57 | DrodoEmpire | Which is... pretty similar to how pagans often have shrines to specific gods and goddesses |
00:27.01 | Wormy_ | so it's been maintained since possibly the Bronze age if its that old |
00:27.04 | DrodoEmpire | Especially Romans |
00:27.06 | DrodoEmpire | holy shit |
00:27.16 | DrodoEmpire | *friends or family |
00:28.07 | Dillonator407 | hmmmmm |
00:28.26 | Wormy_ | Possibly the reason these survived is that cultural folklore from pre-Christian times managed to survive and got reimagined |
00:28.50 | Wormy_ | Christians must have been maintaining it too |
00:28.58 | DrodoEmpire | Had to of yeah |
00:29.17 | DrodoEmpire | Christianity has a habit of blending in with local customs, so its more than likely |
00:29.40 | Dillonator407 | i suppoe somethig like that happened |
00:30.04 | Dillonator407 | *suppose |
00:30.19 | Wormy_ | I also learned about this today https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowing_Stone |
00:30.59 | DrodoEmpire | Incredible |
00:31.02 | Wormy_ | Britain's full of ancient things held dear |
00:31.13 | DrodoEmpire | Britain's archaeological history is incredibly rich |
00:31.14 | Dillonator407 | apparently so |
00:31.21 | Wormy_ | We're like hoarders |
00:31.25 | DrodoEmpire | yeah hur |
00:31.54 | DrodoEmpire | Britain in general is quite exceptional in a lot of areas, very unique archipelago |
00:33.58 | Wormy_ | It is both harsh, but also plentiful |
00:34.17 | Wormy_ | I think the tin from Cornwal was known to the Ancient Greeks |
00:34.33 | Wormy_ | *Cornwall |
00:35.28 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
00:36.13 | Wormy_ | Here;s someone attempting the time honoured tradition o blowing the stone today http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/img_fullsize/73392.jpg |
00:37.33 | Dillonator407 | true...i think |
00:39.14 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah, we have records of that sorta thing |
00:40.44 | DrodoEmpire | test |
00:43.45 | Dillonator407 | what are you testing? |
00:45.29 | Wormy_ | It is our ritual to ChanServ |
00:45.41 | Dillonator407 | really? |
00:45.51 | Dillonator407 | actually what is ChanServ |
00:46.07 | Liquid_Ink | A terrible force of destruction |
00:46.08 | Wormy_ | We must continue to submit our tests before ChanServ's mighty approval |
00:46.12 | Liquid_Ink | A punishment for week humans |
00:46.29 | Dillonator407 | i see |
00:46.32 | Liquid_Ink | A celebration of unbridled madness, and pain, and fear, and pain, and pain, and pain |
00:46.38 | Liquid_Ink | All hail ChanServ |
00:46.54 | Wormy_ | Hail ChanServ |
00:46.59 | Dillonator407 | and what happes if you fail to supply ChanServ with tets? |
00:47.01 | Dillonator407 | (tests? |
00:47.05 | Dillonator407 | *tests |
00:47.10 | Wormy_ | gulps |
00:47.16 | Wormy_ | gasps |
00:47.23 | Liquid_Ink | Would knowing make is any easier? |
00:47.28 | Liquid_Ink | No. Knowing never does. |
00:47.52 | Dillonator407 | i guess i shall avoid submitting the tests then. For scientific reasons |
00:47.58 | Liquid_Ink | ChanServ. Give thanks. Cry out thanks. Scream thanks. |
00:48.13 | DrodoEmpire | Dillon you dimwitted fool |
00:48.19 | DrodoEmpire | You too must gie tests |
00:48.22 | DrodoEmpire | *give |
00:48.32 | Dillonator407 | what will happen should i fail? |
00:48.34 | Wormy_ | Please o'mighty ChanServ, I plead for forgiveness of mankind |
00:48.37 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:49.01 | Dillonator407 | *sighs* very well |
00:49.02 | Dillonator407 | test |
00:49.09 | Liquid_Ink | I have to go now, I wish you all luck in your final moments. |
00:49.19 | Dillonator407 | see you |
00:49.23 | Wormy_ | trembles anxiously before ChanServ |
00:49.38 | Wormy_ | goodbye |
00:49.58 | Dillonator407 | will ChanServ be forgiving? |
00:50.04 | DrodoEmpire | Perhaps |
00:50.07 | DrodoEmpire | Perhaps not |
00:50.18 | Wormy_ | Only ChanServ will be the judge of that |
00:50.26 | DrodoEmpire | It may take thousands of years to see the consequences of your folly bear out |
00:50.33 | DrodoEmpire | Or may happen tomorrow |
00:50.35 | DrodoEmpire | <.< |
00:50.36 | Dillonator407 | I wont be around by then |
00:50.44 | Dillonator407 | we shall see i suppose |
00:51.18 | Dillonator407 | perhaps i should offer it tests just in case |
00:51.53 | Wormy_ | trembles in awe from ChanServ's eternal judgement |
00:52.22 | Dillonator407 | has ChanServ done anything before? |
00:52.54 | Wormy_ | do not speak of before |
00:53.23 | Dillonator407 | of before |
00:53.57 | Dillonator407 | why must i not speak of before? |
00:55.05 | Wormy_ | no questions, just submit to ChanServ's divine will |
00:55.35 | Wormy_ | of not speaking of before |
00:56.19 | Dillonator407 | how does ChanServ inform you of its will? |
00:57.47 | Wormy_ | ChanServ speaks through the runes of ibot/rikers.org/sporewiki logs |
00:58.44 | DrodoEmpire | http://i.imgur.com/sbaw5cM.jpg ...eww |
00:59.16 | Dillonator407 | ...yeah |
01:00.08 | DrodoEmpire | http://imgur.com/gallery/wH6KV |
01:00.21 | DrodoEmpire | Apparently people living more south get all panicked about a little know? XD |
01:00.38 | Wormy_ | Indeed they do |
01:00.57 | Dillonator407 | apparently |
01:00.58 | DrodoEmpire | Lots of anecdotal stories about southerners panic-buying like there's a war on when they here a few centimetres are coming their way |
01:01.06 | DrodoEmpire | Which is just the cutest thing I've ever heard |
01:01.14 | DrodoEmpire | *hear even |
01:01.22 | Wormy_ | People in the Peak District get snowed in, but if one fleck of snow lands in the South of England everyone panics |
01:01.27 | DrodoEmpire | olol |
01:01.32 | Dillonator407 | i have to go |
01:01.35 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
01:01.39 | DrodoEmpire | May Chanserv bless you |
01:02.17 | DrodoEmpire | Also many butthurt southerners in the comments <.< |
01:02.39 | Wormy_ | Is it me or are Southerners always portrayed as softies? |
01:02.46 | Wormy_ | Actually, may not apply to Texans |
01:02.55 | DrodoEmpire | Ehh, nah |
01:03.00 | DrodoEmpire | When it comes to winter yeah |
01:03.02 | DrodoEmpire | But otherwise |
01:03.22 | DrodoEmpire | But yeah I remember one year where I live where we had blizzards like every week at least, and the snow ended up being almost my height |
01:04.03 | DrodoEmpire | I think the last of the snow wasn't gone until it was almost May |
01:04.06 | Wormy_ | The only places in the UK where you might see snow like that is in mountainious regions like Scotland |
01:04.13 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah, makes sense |
01:05.06 | Wormy_ | Its barely snowed at all where I live, except for the Peak District, which seems to take it all |
01:05.13 | DrodoEmpire | I heard from somewhere that NS has the most widely-variant yearly temperatures on the planet-- I'm not sure how true that is, but we do go from over 30 to below -30 over the course of a year |
01:05.15 | Wormy_ | It used to snow |
01:05.24 | DrodoEmpire | Though, that's beginning to change |
01:05.41 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah... Common thing here too, this winter's been pretty scant on the snow |
01:05.51 | DrodoEmpire | We'll go a week or so on, week or so off with it |
01:06.15 | DrodoEmpire | But there's *always* ice, as my still-aching ass can attest >., |
01:06.17 | DrodoEmpire | *>.< |
01:06.37 | Wormy_ | There's been frost and cold foggy days but that's it this year |
01:07.00 | DrodoEmpire | Sorta sucks |
01:07.09 | Wormy_ | But I've observed that it seems everything is happening a month later in the last few years |
01:07.13 | DrodoEmpire | Sounds more like an extended late autumn |
01:07.19 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
01:07.20 | Wormy_ | Septembers never used to be summery, but they are now |
01:07.40 | Wormy_ | And January seems to be when it snows |
01:07.57 | Wormy_ | As a consequence Aprils don't feel as warm as they used to |
01:16.45 | DrodoEmpire | test |
01:30.18 | Wormy_ | new organ discovered http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/38508478 |
01:30.29 | Wormy_ | well, as an organ |

15:53.24 | Hachiman | My stepdad gifted me Battlefield 1 today; hopefully it has a far better and more coherent campaign storyline than FFXV because fucking hell |
15:53.28 | Groxkiller98 | I've decided the Mithadorn are going to expand into Umbra. |
15:53.58 | Hachiman | Awesome |
15:54.17 | Groxkiller98 | ^_^ |
15:54.27 | Groxkiller98 | Might also push them into a few other Segmentums. |
15:55.34 | Groxkiller98 | Also, the Mithadorn now teach French as a second language, I've decided. Since they're dealing with France in trade, |
15:56.21 | Groxkiller98 | It's even appearing in something I'm working on with Kaernk, whom I really wish joined us in here. |

15:56.56 | Hachiman | Hi |
15:57.15 | Groxkiller98 | Probably a sloppy job at writing it, though. >_> I don't speak French myself, so all I have is Google Translate - Which while being one of the best in the world, still sucks. |
15:57.43 | Hachiman | I mean, we have an actual native speaker on the wiki |
15:57.50 | Groxkiller98 | Well, yeah. XD |
15:57.53 | Hachiman | Well, not native |

15:58.13 | Groxkiller98 | It's only a simple sentence though, and the character isn't supposed to be fluent. |
15:58.35 | Groxkiller98 | So... I suppose it should probably be kinda off to an extent. |

17:04.13 | DrodoEmpire | Right, he's French from France tho |
17:04.24 | Hachiman | Oh he's French native |
17:04.27 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
17:04.30 | Hachiman | I thought he was French Canadian for some reason |
17:04.33 | DrodoEmpire | hur |

17:09.22 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: Remember the SSA database on YouTube>? |
17:09.34 | OluapPlayer | I don't |
17:09.41 | Imperios | That video I made years ago |
17:09.57 | Imperios | I just checked it and I realised I took the Spinker theme for it from WoW https://youtu.be/57pLukdb2kI?t=98 |
17:13.36 | OluapPlayer | Night elf music for Spinkers |
17:13.38 | OluapPlayer | dat dun fit |
17:14.57 | Monet | Yeah that tune and then a dialogue that describes the mas a warrior race. |
17:15.22 | Monet | OluapPlayer: I think that's the ambient Dalaran music. |
17:15.57 | Monet | Yeah that's Dalaran music. |
17:16.15 | OluapPlayer | Ah yes, I confused it with the night elf theme |
17:16.22 | OluapPlayer | Still doesn't fit, Spinkers aren't mages hur |
17:16.54 | Monet | It might have worked for the Dracogonarious |
17:17.53 | Imperios | CITIZENS OF NEW DRAKA |

17:32.25 | OluapPlayer | Skull of Gul'steve |
17:35.26 | Xho | Is there any battle music revolving around sharks |
17:35.30 | Xho | Because that would work |
17:36.09 | Hachiman | The Jaws theme |
17:36.15 | Xho | lel |
17:36.21 | Xho | "We're gonna need a bigger bucket." |
17:38.22 | Imperios | dino82_: Oh and Rambo had the Eldar theme |
17:38.45 | dino82_ | Yeah! |
17:42.47 | Xho | dat the radeon theme tho |
17:44.45 | Imperios | Xho: The Radeon theme in the old video is the Sisters of Battle theme |
17:45.38 | Xho | lol bad choice |
17:45.56 | Xho | You need a sect of warriors dedicated to Iovera based on the Adepta Sororitas |
17:53.12 | Imperios | She already has a squadron of female bodyguards, though I will likely replace these with Zazane guards |
17:54.10 | Hachiman | Why not incorporate female Zazane into their numbers |
17:54.46 | Hachiman | Those are her personal honour-guard; the Zazangian guys would be more like her own private army# |
17:56.03 | OluapPlayer | "gee iovera, how come they let you have TWO armies" |
17:56.50 | NeonPanda | Hel' - Only two? Freakin' casuals man |
18:06.52 | Imperios | Hachiman: Imagine female Zazane in Swiss Guard uniforms |
18:07.06 | Hachiman | aw yis |
18:14.49 | Imperios | Hachiman: Speaking of weird things, I found a channel where two YouTube videobloggers read slash fanfics about themselves |
18:15.07 | Imperios | Each reading their respective responses |
18:19.37 | Imperios | What I find odd is that only Russian vloggers do this apparently |

18:37.46 | Imperios | https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fteDca9gQMs/maxresdefault.jpg They're kind of twinkish to begin with |
18:39.22 | OluapPlayer | They look average to me |
18:39.54 | Imperios | https://i.ytimg.com/vi/C4OXgMjLWLQ/sddefault.jpg And they make videos like this |
18:40.06 | Hachiman | Ech |
18:40.21 | Hachiman | They sound like they intentionally act like prettyboys |
18:41.51 | Imperios | That they made slash fiction videos is telling |
18:42.26 | Imperios | There is also a video of two girls reading a lesbian fic about themselves? |

20:26.03 | Imperios | Hachiman: https://2ch.hk/c/src/633594/14837300491140.jpg "Thank God Steven Universe maintains its animation qualitY" |
20:26.40 | Hachiman | Not even the Steven Universe community tries to claim that SU's art style and quality is consistent |
20:26.55 | Hachiman | They have multiple animators and artists on board though, which is why |
20:27.36 | Wormy_ | whiskey went down the wrong way then |
20:27.42 | Wormy_ | thought I was gonna die |
20:27.58 | Hachiman | kek |
20:31.04 | Imperios | Hachiman: Is it just me or are most of Steven's episodes irrelevant? |
20:31.12 | Imperios | Like I feel I can skip half of the episodes |
20:31.14 | Hachiman | Well it is a children's cartoon |
20:32.09 | Imperios | Yeah but so are Gravity Falls and Avatar |
20:32.18 | Hachiman | And both of those had filler episodes |
20:32.26 | Imperios | Very few at that |
20:32.36 | Imperios | And even these pushed the plot forwards in some way |
20:32.37 | Hachiman | I can name a number of occasions where Avatar used filler |
20:33.08 | Monet | "I feel I can skip half of the episodes" that's just American TV in general. |
20:33.17 | Imperios | Yeah but the filler density of Steven Universe is... shocking |
20:33.26 | Hachiman | Gotta teach kids lessons somehow |
20:33.43 | Monet | How many episodes a season? |
20:34.01 | Hachiman | I think the thing with Steven Universe is that it is attempting to be both an action-oriented, character-driven show with a set plot while restraining its pacing with additional episodes and filler in a more slice-of-life kind of way |
20:34.05 | Imperios | Huh |
20:34.09 | Imperios | About kids, TBH |
20:34.23 | Imperios | I'd never show that show to an actual kid |
20:34.29 | Imperios | At least my sister |
20:34.32 | Hachiman | It's attempting to be kind of two difference genres at once |
20:34.38 | Hachiman | Why's that? |
20:35.10 | Imperios | Well it discusses rape and sexual abuse with thinly veiled allegories for example |
20:35.25 | Imperios | I am seriously not okay with how sexual this cartoon is |
20:35.34 | Monet | Spongebob |
20:35.36 | Hachiman | Alright, Christian Mom Patrol |
20:35.48 | Imperios | Not saying it should be banned |
20:35.56 | Imperios | But these kind of themes work better for teens |
20:36.04 | Hachiman | There was an episode of Spongebob where Patrick and Spongebob thought they actually killed a person and went out of their way to deceive the cops and hide the body in the boot of their car |
20:36.07 | Imperios | Not like young children |
20:36.21 | Imperios | It's not like Spongebob is good for kids either |
20:36.25 | Imperios | Also did you just diss me mthfkr |
20:36.26 | Monet | Rocko's Modern Life is for kids and *filled* with innuendo. |
20:36.36 | Hachiman | Yeah, old shows were full of innuendo |
20:36.58 | Imperios | But that's not innuendo, sexuality is literally at the HEART of this cartoon |
20:36.59 | Hachiman | Back when family shows actually meant including humour for adults |
20:37.03 | Imperios | Easily the main theme |
20:37.23 | Monet | Rocko worked at a sex hotline. |
20:38.06 | Imperios | Hachiman: You know what's worse than Christian Mom Patrol? |
20:38.14 | Imperios | Communist Mom Patrol |
20:38.18 | Hachiman | hur |
20:38.33 | Imperios | I was only allowed to watch old Soviet cartoons until age 4 or so |
20:38.39 | Imperios | And Disney |
20:39.02 | Wormy_ | When I was a kid, I never liked cartoons trying to teach me morals |
20:39.05 | Hachiman | I don't watch SU much anymore, so I honestly cannot give you any answers or counters; there is a lot of sexuality shown in the show, I shan't deny, and I do think it tends to push it a little too hard at times for its own good to the point of discomfort |
20:39.06 | Imperios | But yeah TBH Steven's themes feel more teenage-oriented |
20:39.23 | Hachiman | It's probably to do with the fact that the show is trying to be super-progressive |
20:39.27 | Imperios | So I think it would be a better show if it focused mostly on that demographic |
20:39.28 | Wormy_ | Too much nanny statism for my taste |
20:39.33 | DrodoEmpire | Eh I'm not too bothered if a kid's show has some fucked up stuff in it, like in Spongebob |
20:39.43 | Imperios | Hachiman: From what I understand it's Tumblr: the Animated Series |
20:39.48 | Hachiman | Indeed |
20:39.49 | DrodoEmpire | I've been a bit put off from SU myself, partly because animated shows aren't exactly my thing |
20:39.55 | DrodoEmpire | And yeah its politics are a bit eh |
20:40.02 | Monet | DrodoEmpire: The gross-outing of Ren and Stimpy. |
20:40.07 | DrodoEmpire | Politics in most shows are eh |
20:40.27 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah xD |
20:40.31 | Wormy_ | I've not not watched kids shows for years I don't even know whats current now. Except for 5 minutes of nostalgia on shows I used to like |
20:40.32 | Imperios | Well, I like how these ideas are interwoven into the show, I have nothing against cartoons promoting certain ideas |
20:40.36 | Hachiman | "Ooh these alien rock people actually do not have sexes or genders like humans do but they are ALL female fuck you" |
20:40.39 | Imperios | There are Christian conservatives cartoons |
20:40.48 | Imperios | There can be progressivist cartoons too |
20:40.51 | Imperios | *conservative |
20:41.03 | Imperios | I just feel these themes are not fit for children who are too young TBH |
20:41.15 | DrodoEmpire | I dunno, sterilising what children watch isn't any good, but I don't think it good to push an agenda either |
20:41.23 | Wormy_ | They won't understand it though, necessarily |
20:41.36 | Imperios | If that's just one show, it's okay, we have choice |
20:41.38 | Monet | Imperios: Often its assumed the kids don't notice. |
20:41.42 | Wormy_ | Hell I used to watch Simpsons, Family Guy and even South Park. Am I fucked up? no |
20:41.50 | Imperios | Wormy_: >tfw when you live with a kid and I have to watch everything with her |
20:42.06 | Hachiman | Perhaps it's uncomfortable for you because you're a teenager |
20:42.07 | Imperios | I fucking know the names of all Winx characters now |
20:42.10 | Monet | Imperios: Wait till you're a parent. |
20:42.27 | Imperios | Hachiman: >Perhaps it's uncomfortable for you because you're a teenager |
20:42.29 | Wormy_ | I have cousins I've had to watch kids shows with |
20:42.32 | Imperios | Who are you referring to? |
20:43.07 | Monet | You'll be in your theirties and will have to watch whatever the TV channels have as the trendy show for kids. |
20:43.28 | Imperios | DrodoEmpire: Ultimately I think it is up to parents |
20:43.35 | DrodoEmpire | Sure |
20:43.47 | Imperios | I hate when people complain about things their children are watching, you're the parents you're supposed to monitor that |
20:43.49 | Wormy_ | There's so much jokes and stuff I missed watching the Simpsons or Family Guy that I only got when I was older ands started to watch again |
20:43.50 | Imperios | At least to some degree |
20:43.54 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
20:44.05 | DrodoEmpire | The television isn't a babysitter |
20:44.15 | Imperios | I think most of the stuff I watched was... not suitable for my age |
20:44.18 | Wormy_ | Tablets are the new babysitters |
20:44.29 | Monet | Wormy_: How many kids were unaware of what "snuggling" between Homer and Marge really meant. |
20:44.31 | Hachiman | As in, you can see past the colours and the action and whatnot and you're aware of all the allegories and whatnot that SU is attempting to teach; to a kid, it's like their first introduction into that realm of topics and it's setting them up for stuff that's gonna be even worse or more dramatic in real life |
20:44.36 | Hachiman | Or something like that, I dunno |
20:44.57 | Imperios | Hm, that's a possibility |
20:45.04 | Imperios | Like that is sensible |
20:45.21 | Imperios | But even then it's not for young children, I'd say 12+ works best |
20:45.23 | Wormy_ | Remember that a lot of kids are less fortunate and see this shit happen all around them |
20:45.48 | Imperios | Monet: I fucking remember watching that scene when I was like 7 or something https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTr3gClwArQ |
20:45.50 | Wormy_ | So even if they don't fully understand what's going on, its something |
20:45.59 | Imperios | I think these scenes affect you |
20:46.09 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
20:46.20 | Imperios | Monet: Don't forget Shrek |
20:46.20 | Hachiman | Fucking kek |
20:46.30 | Imperios | "Look at this tower, I guess he's compensating for something" |
20:46.39 | Wormy_ | If I'll be honest I wonder if Watership Down is really a kids film, but all kids here are forced to watch it |
20:46.47 | Imperios | Kid me - Oh lol he's short so he makes his tower really big |
20:46.52 | Hachiman | Farquaad's name is even an adult joke |
20:46.54 | Imperios | Adult me - ... |
20:46.54 | Xho | Hachiman: https://soundcloud.com/turkeychickensandwich/meshuggah-tone-test I managed to get a convincing Meshuggah guitar sound out of a computer program |
20:46.57 | Hachiman | I like stuff like that |
20:47.02 | Imperios | Lord Fuckwad? |
20:47.02 | Hachiman | Lemme check dis |
20:47.08 | Hachiman | Yes |
20:47.27 | Imperios | Fuck what |
20:47.38 | Hachiman | Xho: do not go djently into the night |
20:48.19 | Monet | Farquaad is a walking isnult to Michael Eisner. http://cdn.acidcow.com/pics/20160824/little_movie_trivia_06.jpg |
20:48.39 | Imperios | Monet: Think about it, half of my favourite shows when I was like 8 were horror shows |
20:48.55 | Imperios | Extreme Ghostbusters, Godzilla, Men in Black |
20:49.01 | Imperios | Holy shit these were terrifying |
20:49.44 | Hachiman | I do think Steven Universe is made with intent to be watched by both children and teenagers - and there are times where it leaks more towards one side than the other a little too much on occasion |
20:50.14 | Hachiman | But other than that, I think it's an okay children's show; Avatar had a fair number of harsher themes in it |
20:51.01 | Wormy_ | Anyone believe Spongebob genuinely has lude content and adult humour? |
20:51.31 | Monet | "You can't name your city that [dogbollock] some poor child might see it and realise the word 'bollock' exists' - Yahtzee mimicing a censorship agent. |
20:52.30 | Imperios | Call me weird but I've never liked weird cartoon shows |
20:52.41 | Imperios | Save for maybe Sponge Bob, none of them have attracted me, neither as a kid nor now |
20:52.53 | Imperios | Ren and Stimpy, Sponge Bob, Adventure Time, Regular Show |
20:52.57 | Wormy_ | I used to like a lot of adventure based ones |
20:53.12 | Imperios | I dunno I just like to receive aesthetic pleasure from watching animation, rather than a lot of new sensations |
20:53.15 | Wormy_ | Hachi will remember the cartoon with the polar bear who ends up in a tropical island |
20:53.21 | Hachiman | Vaguely |
20:53.58 | Wormy_ | I also remember a cartoon about a kid in the Ykuon who has a drunk Frenchman as a friend |
20:54.02 | Monet | Oh that was a beautiful show |
20:54.17 | Monet | Wormy_: You're listing my childhood |
20:54.38 | Wormy_ | Well, we're of similar ages so we must have watched the same shows |
20:54.55 | Monet | A drunk stinky 300 year old frenchman who walked around in giant underpands. |
20:55.08 | Wormy_ | That's right |
20:55.30 | Hachiman | Zuko being abused and hurt by his father, Aang allowing his people to die by acting in a selfish act of cowardice when he needed to take responsibility, Katara dealing with childhood abandonment and trying to overcome what is expected of her by people beyond her family, Toph... being Toph I suppose, dunno |
20:55.33 | Imperios | There was that fucking show |
20:55.35 | Wormy_ | I used to like a lot of live action series too |
20:55.48 | Imperios | Remember What's with Andy? |
20:55.55 | Imperios | That cartoon about a prankster |
20:56.02 | Imperios | Come to think about it was fucking prophetiv |
20:56.04 | Imperios | prophetic |
20:56.20 | Wormy_ | Monet: Do you a remember Aquilla? |
20:56.40 | Monet | You've asked me a couple of times before and unfortunately no. |
20:57.01 | Wormy_ | I'm the only person who seemed to watch it |
20:57.54 | Wormy_ | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquila_(TV_series)#Synopsis |
20:58.39 | Monet | The Demon Headmaster. |
20:58.57 | Wormy_ | The Queen's Nose |
20:59.02 | Xho | Avatar was a fucking lit cartoon |
20:59.12 | Hachiman | Imperios: Consider for a moment what Japanese children watch and compare it to Western media |
21:00.09 | Hachiman | Children shows for Japanese kids tend to be a bit more vulgar than shows for equivalent ages in the West |
21:00.10 | Imperios | Hachiman: No idea, I do not watch anime |
21:00.42 | Imperios | >implying Japanese people still have kids |
21:00.47 | Hachiman | Fucking kek |
21:00.56 | Hachiman | Then again, Japanese media is just more vulgar and crude and weird in general |
21:00.57 | Monet | Wormy_: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BH9-733CAAA3jXo.jpg memories of Honhonhon |
21:01.22 | Imperios | I bet pedophilia is so rampant there because they forgot what an actual kid is |
21:01.24 | Wormy_ | What's the series called? |
21:01.42 | Monet | Yvon of the Yukon. |
21:01.49 | Imperios | Hachiman: You reminded me of my encounter with a Japanese student actually |
21:02.01 | Wormy_ | Yeah, that was cool |
21:02.16 | Imperios | When he was leaving Saint-Petersburg I came to meet him and say goodbye, and we managed to talk a little bit |
21:02.19 | Monet | Defrosted by a husky using his iceblock as a peepost. |
21:02.21 | Imperios | I asked if he was ever going to return |
21:02.28 | Hachiman | If your encounter did not end with a clash of cultures and concluded with a sword fight |
21:02.38 | Imperios | He's half-Zainichi Korean |
21:02.42 | Imperios | We're practically kin |
21:02.42 | Hachiman | Ah |
21:02.49 | Imperios | So anyway his response was |
21:03.21 | Imperios | "I'm probably going to return here, I really like the local girls, at least they actually like sex here" |
21:03.37 | Imperios | "Probably going to marry a Russian girl" |
21:03.53 | Hachiman | Jesus fuck |
21:04.19 | Imperios | All with a ridiculous Japanese accent |
21:04.29 | Wormy_ | I also liked Pit and Kantrop shortly before I stopped watching childrens TV |
21:04.35 | Wormy_ | And Shaun the Sheep |
21:10.31 | Monet | Who knows, maybe these shows becoem our kids' favourites. |
21:11.16 | Monet | Captain Scarlet and Thunderbirds came out i nthe 60s, a convenient reshowing of Jerry Anderson's work introduced kids born in the 90s to these shows. |
21:11.37 | Monet | Although bloody hell does the CG Captain Scarlet look terrifying. |
21:11.47 | Hachiman | hur |
21:11.56 | Hachiman | I remember watching the CGI Captain Scarlet |
21:12.26 | Hachiman | I don't remember the CGI looking so bad |
21:13.56 | Monet | The models were pretty good. But the animation I felt was stiffer than the puppets. |
21:15.01 | Wormy_ | enough internet for today https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=spongebob+adult+humour&rlz=1C1ASUC_enGB569GB569&biw=1920&bih=950&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjMpb7o9LDRAhVHxGMKHdclC4gQ_AUIBigB#imgrc=cKmGC7utOHB0fM%3A |

21:41.08 | OluapPlayer | Imperios: I got the Fury Warrior artifact, I think I'm gonna give Fury a proper try for now on. I feel like I'm doing a lot more damage than with Arms |
21:41.35 | OluapPlayer | Fury's attack animations are really cool-looking too |
21:42.52 | DrodoEmpire | I ate a hot turkey sandwich and mashed potatoes for lunch |
21:43.04 | DrodoEmpire | Its like five hours later and I'm still completely stuffed |
21:43.19 | Dillonator407 | filling then i guess |
21:43.28 | DrodoEmpire | Its been the one thing I've eaten today, so yeah >.< |
21:43.42 | Dillonator407 | wow |
21:43.56 | Dillonator407 | i eat all sorts of random stuff in one day |
21:49.51 | Imperios | Oh, yes, merry Russian Christmas for everyone whom I didn't manage to celebrate yesterday |
21:50.06 | Imperios | DrodoEmpire: Mashed potatoes are best |
21:50.11 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
21:50.25 | Dillonator407 | i like potatoes...reshaped and fried and with added flavours |
21:50.27 | Imperios | Hm, considering your climate, I presume that Canadian cuisine uses a lot of potatoes |
21:50.34 | Imperios | Poutine and all that |
21:50.52 | OluapPlayer | I'm talking to you dum |
21:51.46 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: I'm not into warriors so I cannot really say anything sorry |
21:52.03 | Imperios | Glad you've found a way to actually play comfortably though |
21:52.04 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah it does |
21:52.19 | OluapPlayer | blah |
21:52.22 | Dillonator407 | Its good to find a good way to play |
21:52.31 | OluapPlayer | I'll probably not abandon Arms entirely |
21:52.43 | Imperios | I read that as "Abaddon arms" |
21:52.50 | DrodoEmpire | Most of our native cuisine comes has British origins, which tends to be pretty heavy and starchy |
21:52.50 | OluapPlayer | dum |
21:53.07 | OluapPlayer | I already gave Strom'kar a bunch of artifact power so it'd be wasteful to not use it anymore |
21:53.30 | OluapPlayer | Also you can be somewhat glad because the Fury artifact probably has less lore than your monk's |
21:54.00 | DrodoEmpire | Though we also have other stuff like Poutine and Donairs, which would probably have dietitians throw an absolute fucking fit |
21:54.41 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: I do not even remember what the fury warrior artifact is |
21:54.55 | OluapPlayer | Warswords of the Valarjar |
21:55.19 | Imperios | Ah |
21:56.03 | Imperios | TBH I am not a fan of the valarjar hur |
21:56.13 | Imperios | They're just "lol vikings are cool" |
21:56.37 | OluapPlayer | Odyn ordered them made and was like "only my best champion can use these". Then one guy became the best champ and used them. Then they got into Helya's hands because best champ got trapped outside the Halls when they were cursed. Then Helya gave the swords to her own best champ because irony |
21:56.51 | OluapPlayer | Then you go over and kill Helya's best champ and get the swords for yourself |

21:57.09 | Imperios | Huh, at least that's a cool way to get the swords |
21:57.27 | Imperios | I was just doing a hozen's errands |
21:57.37 | OluapPlayer | Isn't your artifact the staff of the Monkey King? |
21:58.27 | Imperios | Yeah the Monkey King |
21:58.39 | Imperios | He gave me a few tasks, then he gave me his monkey stick |
21:59.02 | OluapPlayer | He's kind of a big deal |
21:59.07 | OluapPlayer | Unless you mean the quest chain was boring |
22:00.00 | Imperios | It was kind of simple |
22:00.09 | Imperios | The other two quest chains were more interesting |
22:00.17 | OluapPlayer | Ah |
22:00.19 | Imperios | You cleansed the Terrace of Endless Springs with Taran Zhu |
22:00.26 | Imperios | And killed a powerful elemental lord |
22:01.48 | OluapPlayer | Well I won't deny the warrior quest chains are cool. You facing off against Helya's greatest kvaldir champion, or you using the sword of the first human king to destroy one of the greatest faceless generals |
22:02.03 | OluapPlayer | I don't know what the Protection warrior quest is though, but I assume it involves something to do with Deathwing |
22:02.20 | OluapPlayer | Since the artifact is called Neltharion something something |
22:05.00 | OluapPlayer | Scale of the Earth-Warder |
22:05.00 | Imperios | Actually Deathwing's chin made into a shield |
22:05.03 | OluapPlayer | I was half-close |
22:05.09 | Imperios | No that was a joke |
22:05.38 | OluapPlayer | I get you, I meant my guess about the name |
22:05.39 | OluapPlayer | >An impenetrable shield crafted from a scale of the black Dragon Aspect, Neltharion the Earth-Warder, before the Old Gods' corruption overcame him. The formidable vrykul king Magnar Icebreaker carried this shield into combat and won victory after victory in the face of grim odds. When he finally fell in battle, it was due to treachery by servants of the Val'kyr Helya. The shield is now entombed with King Magnar's body in the |
22:05.57 | Imperios | fucking vrykul |
22:06.06 | Imperios | They were cool in WotLK because they weren't JUST vikings |
22:06.06 | OluapPlayer | I expected Deathwing, I got vikings |
22:06.14 | Imperios | They were cool and kind of sinister |
22:06.19 | Imperios | Now vrykul are just vikings |
22:06.37 | OluapPlayer | I think they're a little too prominent |
22:07.10 | OluapPlayer | Strom'kar is the only artifact of the three which doesn't center around vrykul it seems |
22:07.26 | OluapPlayer | Instead it's about humies and trolles |
22:10.03 | OluapPlayer | One thing I think it'd be cool is if they buffed the old content artifacts to be on par with Legion's |
22:10.10 | OluapPlayer | Legendaries rather |
22:11.49 | Monet | Agreed. |
22:11.59 | Monet | But transmog seems an okay compromise |
22:13.22 | OluapPlayer | Old content legendaries aren't available as transmog options for some reason |
22:13.48 | OluapPlayer | I was hoping to craft Sulfuras at some point and transmog my weapon into it but then I learned you can't |

22:17.30 | OluapPlayer | Warrior campaign primarily involves getting champions for Odyn and opposing Helya |
22:17.50 | OluapPlayer | At the end you get in contact with the keepers at Ulduar but I didn't get that far yet |

23:05.58 | Hachiman | In seriousness, I was gonna suggest something like Rakshasa |

23:07.13 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: Quick update about the Stonehenge discussion we had yesterday |

23:07.21 | Wormy_ | Oh? |
23:07.38 | Wormy_ | What have you found out? |
23:07.50 | DrodoEmpire | There *was* one recorded attempt to demolish the Pyramids by an Ayyubid ruler in the 1200s-- he gave up as demolishing a pyramid was just too monumental of a task |
23:07.55 | Monet | "Why don't you get yourself a nice girl" "I have one every night" |
23:08.22 | DrodoEmpire | He *did* vandalise one, but that's all and it wasn't one of the Great Pyramids |

23:09.46 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
23:12.14 | Imperios | Monet: Hm? |
23:12.17 | Wormy_ | There's some information here, looks like Stonehenge at least from the 1600s was owned by wealthy estates, and so it could have been long before as well https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stonehenge#Sixteenth_century_to_present |

23:13.51 | Imperios | Wormy_: Inyuns |
23:14.25 | Monet | it was a funny line, and I'm watching the film atm |
23:16.01 | Wormy_ | Context: the techno-mystical spirit is something embodied in essence or mana, and arranges coincidences to subtly influence the progress of civilisations into producing physical embodiments of itself |
23:16.32 | Xho | Either that or something in Nahuatl to keep with the Tuuros theme |
