And Unreal was published in 1998. :slick:

I know there's the reference in UT2K4, but where was it in the original Unreal?

Unless I'm mistaken, his girlfriend locked him in his house and he didn't realize for two days or know how to get out.

No, of course not, that would be absurd.

It was a crack house.

edit: after she let him out she broke up with him for being "too clingy" so he went to the train station and smoked a blunt with A Guy Named Mario.

I really think it was a Lowtax ICQ prank before it was a youtube video.

I'm always disappointed when I'm chatting with someone in another messaging app and I can't use the perfect SA smilie. This happens a lot.

I added a bunch of them to my office's slack, including zoid, cute, psyduck, and an edited version of :same:

I think it sets a hard limit of 125x125, but in almost applications that's getting shrunken down to a square that's the same size as the default font to fit on a single line, both horizontally and vertically. Once you get some decent emojis in its nice though, you can add reacts that tag at the bottom of any comment. Squaresame gets a ton of use.

I wanna know how so many SA smilies end up in various companies' Slack libraries.

Clearly there is (or was) a goon working at X company, but how does one seek said goon out without publicly owning oneself

Either you're gonna out yourself as a goon to your coworkers or you're gonna dox your employer. Bah

If you go to add custom smilies in Slack it tells you who uploaded the others. The SA smilies I added that get the most non-goon use at my office are :zoid: and the 125x125 version of :same: I made.

edit: seriously, same gets used all the loving time now, it's maybe the most useful reaction to a post in an office setting

I'm trying to figure out why you'd use :zoid: in an office. MY best guess is a shorthand to indicate the boss?

There are a bunch of futurama nerds in my office, but I think it also gets used as a sort of :toot: too.

Has there ever been a case of someone waiting out a 100k-hour probe and then posting again? That's only eleven and a half years or so, so there's been plenty of time for it since The Beginning.

I think I remember someone (glistening hodor maybe?) Getting a 100k reversed and coming back after a few years, but I'm not aware of anyone posting again after the full 11.5 years.

Worth noting the only reason Abe upgraded them to a perma is they kept closing and reopening their awful thread while probed, which is apparently a thing you can do.

There was a while where :eng101: variations were all the rage, probably 2006ish?

I remember hearing an interview with Rob McElheny talking about bulking up for Fat Mac and he started off trying to eat enough calories with relatively healthy food, but realized after like a week that he could either be getting the extra calories from eating like 6 extra meals of grilled chicken or whatever or he could just go to McDonalds like once.

I like the red version, and it looks better rounded to me - maybe if it's easy to clean up the corners a bit.

Agreed, I vote go with:

wondering who's responsible for all the SA smilies in my work Slack :colbert:

You used to be able to view all custom emoji and it would say who added each but I'm having trouble finding that now. Anyway it might have been me, I added a few like :3: :laugh: :psyduck: :stonk: and :thunk: to my office's channel.
