Does anyone have that one where some 14 year old talks about wanting to be born in the 90's cause punk kids were cool and no one liked the jocks. That one is hilarious. I blame the parents. I am in my late 30's and some of the people I went to school with keep looking back with these rose colored glasses. Half of the in clique added me on facebook the moment they saw I was on there. I was never cool and got routinely bullied in high school. I accepted because I thought it would make me feel better.

dijon du jour posted:Ha ha ha ha ha hoh man, it's the Paranautical Activity guy. I know there was some controversy too a while back because for a long time the game promised multiplayer and then that feature was quietly removed from the store page. I think the dev was a prick to people about it then too and made some really stupid and inflammatory comments.

For those who don't know this dude was already on thin ice with Valve before for running his mouth off.

Didn't he also send Gaben death threats? And then defended it by asserting that well, Gabe's basically a meme now, so it's not like he was threatening a real person or anything?

It also needs to be repeated that the issue was his banner on the main store page said the game was still in early access. This mistake was fixed by Valve in AN HOUR, but this dude still went off the deep end with death threats.

I do feel bad for the game's other developer, who had nothing to do with this issue but is saying on twitter that his career is basically ruined. E: Oh wait no, now he's exploded on twitter like a big baby too. drat, why can't anybody just shut up? HellCopter has a new favorite as of 18:26 on Oct 21, 2014 |

Kids nowadays have access to both past and present good shows, whereas kids back then only had access to those past shows. Also who the hell still uses a TV when you can stream stuff for cheaper?

TV was goddamn poo poo back then, and still is, doesn't matter what generation you grew up in. I've been stuck at home, bored out of my mind, on medical leave for a few weeks now, so I've watched a lot of kids' TV in the day. And I maintain that kids' TV today is much better than what we had in the '90s. Our shows were made with lovely production values and were just there to sell overpriced plastic toys, but kids today get nice things like Something Special (a non-creepy and only slightly annoying clown signs in Makaton as he speaks), Rastamouse (a show where they actually rehabilitate the villains and they show up in later episodes as good guys) and Tinga Tinga Tales (folk stories with a lovely art style). We never had anything like those!

Having grown up in the 90s, I find it hilarious how kids these days wish they grew up when I did - when I was growing up, everyone wishes they grew up back in the 80s and how better everything was back then. I'll laugh when in twenty years kids wish they coulda grown up back in the 2010s.

Yesterday some guy in Quebec named Martin Rouleau ran over a couple of Canadian soldiers, and was shot by police. Rouleau and one of the soliders, Patrice Vincent, both died of their injuries. The second soldier had minor injuries and I believe is expected to recover. Prime Minister Harper put out a statement on his Facebook page about it. The guy driving the car was a recent convert to Islam, and was apparently stopped from leaving the country to fight for ISIL in Syria. There are over 300 comments, you can view the status here: https://www.facebook.com/pmharper/posts/10152746814242110 They do seem to be deleting the most offensive ones, but I've seen calls from people "hoping some patriots will bomb/burn down mosques", demanding to make Islam illegal, or advising that we need WW2-style internment camps for all muslims like we did to the Japanese. Lots of calls for concealed carry, too. It's an awful, offensive, and terrible thing that happened, and gently caress the guy who did it, but good Lord... Some of the comments just make me feel numb.

I'll laugh when in twenty years kids wish they coulda grown up back in the 2010s. I don't know, it makes a lot of sense to me at least in Michigan where I grew up because in the 90s there was actually hope for most young people to get a decent job and have a future. The economy was poo poo in the 80s and after 9/11 so the 90s was pretty much the sweet spot for everything not being poo poo. I grew up in the 90s and we were pretty thankful not to have grown up in the 80s.

Do these things never come in different sizes? Usually these things are the same/very similar sizes, especially sticks of butter, which are 8 tablespoons. This kind of stellar recipe is probably just fine (or as "fine" as it can be) with estimates/small differences in amounts, but like Lumberjack said, actual recipes don't usually call for jars/boxes/sticks.

If you're buying butter in sticks, the side of the wrapper has tablespoon markers for easy measurement, so people who have knives and like convenience, I imagine.

Teddybear posted:A game dev got frustrated that Steam, while promoting his game prominently, listed it as Early Access instead of a fully released game. His method of addressing this was to threaten to kill Gabe Newell, the owner of Steam/Valve, over Twitter. Per the 2nd dev's Twitter - it's also now been pulled from the Humble store. The Idiots on Social Media thread has slammed into the schadenfreude thread and made a perfect little baby.

BonHair posted:Sticks of butter are also the most common in googling recipes. And who the hell measures butter in tablespoons and not in weight? The huge differences in humidity across the US make weight less accurate for flour than volume, so a lot of recipes (especially baked goods) use volumetric measurements across the board. gradenko_2000 posted:I think something you learn/get taught in cooking is that past a certain point you're not really supposed to stick with precise measurements anyway. True for cooking, but not for baking. I'm not sure what I'd call the OP though... maybe mixing and heating.
