02:00:10 <Mekkis> I'm adverse to playing The Disappeared online
02:00:18 <Avatar> what about the others
02:00:43 <Mekkis> want to play Kortos in-person
02:00:49 <Mekkis> others I'm not fussed about
02:01:43 <Avatar> yeah I've run haunting of hinojai and fabric of reality
02:01:47 <Avatar> the latter recently
02:02:06 <Avatar> heresy of man 2 I haven't run before, but I've played it
02:02:18 <Avatar> fabric of reality is pretty sweet
02:02:28 <Avatar> I could run that again
02:03:05 <Avatar> sunday is my playing-day though
02:03:10 <Mekkis> heresy of man II and III can be treated as high-priority :S
02:03:59 <Avatar> as in you really want to play them or you need them by x date?
02:04:10 <Mekkis> I really want to play them
02:04:21 <Mekkis> Itzamna is tied up until he plays them
02:04:31 <Avatar> it's not really an amazing series I have to warn you
02:05:27 <Mekkis> I like the idea about people smuggling
02:05:55 <Avatar> did you offer to GM anything?
02:06:31 <Mekkis> just Year of the Shadow lodge
02:06:39 <Mekkis> (which I'll have to withdraw from)
02:07:23 <Avatar> can't do monday or not enough people?
02:07:49 <Avatar> not enough by the look of it
02:08:07 <Avatar> not that requires more GMs, at least
02:08:54 <Mekkis> need to leave by noon
02:09:11 <Mekkis> transport
02:20:02 <Avatar> rgr
02:20:20 <Mekkis> speaking of which: how long would it take from the airport to South Yarra
02:20:37 <Brunius> half an hour, maybe?
02:20:52 <Mekkis> flight lands at 3:10. I'll be first off the plane
02:21:30 <Avatar> over 30 mins
02:21:42 <Avatar> it's 20 mins to take the skybus from the airport, not including waiting time
02:21:51 <Avatar> then you need at least 5 mins from southern cross to flinders st
02:22:01 <Avatar> at least 10 mins from flinders to south yarra
02:22:23 <Avatar> allow an hour
02:23:31 <Mekkis> then I'll be a little late to Arc
02:23:31 <Mekkis> :S
02:23:58 <Avatar> what time late
02:24:03 <Avatar> 9:15 ? lol
02:24:15 <Avatar> the con doesn't really start until 9:45ish
02:24:20 <Avatar> forget 9:00
02:24:28 <Mekkis> I thought it started at 4
02:25:07 <Brunius> and the first roleplaying sessions are from 4:05pm Friday.
02:25:10 <Avatar> oh yeah okay
02:25:13 <Brunius> http://arcanacon.org/general/when
02:25:36 <Avatar> what is a roleplaying session
02:25:47 <Avatar> do you mean the game
02:25:51 <Brunius> yeah
02:25:57 <Avatar> yeah 4:45
02:26:07 <Brunius> nah man
02:26:09 <Avatar> have you guys BEEN to a con
02:26:11 <Brunius> like greased lightning
02:29:07 <Brunius> Philderbeast: Did you make your own armour?
03:15:30 <Darkkapow> bed is what's sup
03:34:57 <Steven> pffft

03:52:42 <Mekkis> Avatar, please schedule WotW for Sunday 2 February, 0900 AEDT
04:12:29 <Mekkis> I want to cast PHANTOM CHARIOT
04:12:39 <Mekkis> it gives you a vehicle. In PFS
04:13:22 <Avatar> what are you going to do with a vehicle
04:13:43 <Mekkis> pimp it out'
04:22:55 <Avatar> shit

04:23:10 <Avatar> when I have a +9 bonus
04:23:19 <Mekkis> no
04:23:29 <Avatar> you reckon
04:23:32 <Avatar> I could get 50gp
04:23:42 <Avatar> I stand to gain more than I lose
04:25:26 <Mekkis> GM reroll?
04:25:33 <Mekkis> so it becomes a +11?
04:25:33 <Avatar> shirt reroll
04:25:36 <Avatar> yeah
04:25:47 <Avatar> yeah good point Ia lmost forgot
04:25:50 <Avatar> that means it could go up to 75gp !
04:27:04 <Mekkis> may as well
04:27:11 <Avatar> it's a no brainer
04:27:16 <Avatar> !roll 1d20+11
04:27:16 <dicebot> Avatar, 1d20+11: [1d20=3] 14
04:27:19 <Avatar> arg !

04:28:57 <Avatar> buying my alchemist who loves fire a headband of int
04:29:06 <Avatar> not really because he needs his int
04:29:16 <Avatar> but so he can throw full ranks onto intimidate
04:29:20 <Avatar> for BLISTERING INVECTIVE
04:29:24 <Avatar> FIRE ! FIRE ! FIRE !
04:38:12 <Avatar> how much does tier 4-5 normally pay
04:38:27 <Avatar> is it meant to be around 1300 or 1800?
04:42:47 <Avatar> I just realised that might not be as good as I thought thanks to dumping my cha
04:52:45 <Mekkis> between those two values, yes
05:07:11 <Brunius> 9am!
05:17:52 <Mekkis> yeah

Prerequisites: Dex 15, Point-Blank Shot, Rapid Shot, Snap Shot, Weapon Focus, base attack bonus +9. Benefit: You threaten an additional 10 feet with Snap Shot. Normal: Making a ranged attack provokes

14:39:21 <Mekkis> hey Brunius
14:39:34 <Brunius> ja
14:39:42 <Mekkis> how's your hardware issues?
14:39:59 <Brunius> Seems like I've got most things working as they were before
14:40:14 <Mekkis> some things are working better?
14:40:16 <Brunius> Lost a bit of data, but nothing 'vital'
14:40:22 <Brunius> Well, my mouse works now.
14:40:31 <Mekkis> does WoT work?
14:40:37 <Brunius> I'd have to install it to find out
14:40:49 <Mekkis> better do that important research
14:41:00 <Brunius> How does a subnet mask work?
14:41:20 <Mekkis> CIDR or dotted decimal?
14:41:25 <Brunius> dotted decimal
14:41:29 <Mekkis> simple
14:41:55 <Mekkis> it's a 32-bit number that's ANDed with the IP address to determine whether or not the destination is in the subnet
14:42:16 <Mekkis> it's almost always all 1s, followed by some zeroes
14:42:37 <Brunius> How about how it works in v4?
14:42:56 <Mekkis> I've never seen dotted decimal subnet masks used in V6
14:43:07 <Brunius> humm
14:43:24 <Mekkis> they use CIDR, like they should
14:43:58 <Mekkis> !feat power attack
14:44:00 <diebot> Mekkis, POWER ATTACK [Combat]Prereq: Str 13, base attack bonus +1. You can make exceptionally deadly melee attacks by sacrificing accuracy for strength.
14:44:00 <diebot> Benefit: You can choose to take a –1 penalty on all melee attack rolls and combat maneuver checks to gain a +2 bonus on all melee damage rolls. This bonus to damage is increased by half (+50%) if you are making an attack with a two-handed weapon, a one handed weapon using two hands, or a primary natural weapon that adds 1-1/2 times your
14:44:00 <diebot> Strength modifier on damage rolls. This bonus to damage is halved (–50%) if you are making an attack with an off-hand weapon or secondary natural weapon. When your base attack bonus reaches +4, and every 4 points thereafter, the penalty increases by –1 and the bonus to damage increases by +2. You must choose to use this feat before making an
14:44:00 <diebot> attack roll, and its effects last until your next turn. The bonus damage does not apply to touch attacks or effects that do not deal hit point damage. Source: Core
14:47:13 <Mekkis> I'm considering the merits of Piranha Strike as opposed to Power Attack.
14:47:19 <Mekkis> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/piranha-strike-combat
15:26:07 Theta ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
15:38:06 <s_gmusic> I could see Piranha Strike being better than Power Attack when you don't have much strength, which is likely true for most Weapon Finesse builds
15:38:49 <Brunius> That's pretty much the only time I'd see it being better
15:41:27 <Mekkis> you still lose the flexibility of the two-handed strike
15:43:27 <s_gmusic> but are there two-handed light weapons?
15:43:57 <Mekkis> yes
15:43:59 <Mekkis> there is one
15:44:14 <s_gmusic> o-0
15:44:26 <Mekkis> well
15:44:32 <Mekkis> there are one-handed weapons
15:44:45 <Mekkis> that can be wielded in two hands
15:44:54 <Mekkis> but can also count as light weapons
15:45:26 <Mekkis> like the sawtooth sabre
15:45:35 <s_gmusic> ah
15:47:32 <Mekkis> anyone here with experience in building inquisitors?
15:49:33 Damalon01 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d

15:53:01 <Damalon01> yo
15:53:05 <Mekkis> yo
15:54:07 <Damalon01> wat up?
16:01:13 <Mekkis> trying to build an inquisitor

16:28:56 <Steven> sup avatar
16:28:56 <Avatar> can VO's provide a PDF to GMs for a con
16:29:03 <Avatar> like, to prep a scenario
16:29:13 Davis13 has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
16:29:30 <Steven> GMs can print out a physical copy and hand it to the GM but providing a PDF is technically not allowed.
16:29:42 <Avatar> does it sometimes happen anyway?
16:29:54 <Steven> it does sometimes happen.
16:29:59 <Avatar> okay
16:30:13 <Avatar> they asked me to GM a scenario and I couldn't work out why trying to get a copy of it was like pulling teeth
16:30:21 <Avatar> that makes sense now
16:30:31 <Avatar> I don't even mind buying it but I couldn't get a 'no' or 'we're not allowed' out of them
16:30:55 <Steven> like i've said previously in the channel, sharing PDFs is a big deal.
16:37:38 ChibiQ ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
16:38:36 <ChibiQ> afternoon, guys
16:39:29 <Yiroep> Usually for conventions, the PFS Organizer for the convention can put a request ahead of time to get the scenarios sent to the GMs for whatever they signed up for during the convention. However, if it's something that happening soon, they aren't gonna have the turnaround time that you want.
16:40:16 <Yiroep> You usually have to do it weeks in advance.
16:40:57 <Steven> brock tends to like it about 6 weeks
16:41:10 <Yiroep> Sounds about right.
16:43:34 <Avatar> yeah look that's all I really needed to hear

17:21:10 <Mekkis> !feat two-weapon fighting
17:21:12 <diebot> Mekkis, TWO-WEAPON FIGHTING [Combat]Prereq: Dex 15. You can fight with a weapon wielded in each of your hands. You can make one extra attack each round with the secondary weapon.
17:21:12 <diebot> Benefit: Your penalties on attack rolls for fighting with two weapons are reduced. The penalty for your primary hand lessens by 2 and the one for your off hand lessens by 6. See Two-Weapon Fighting in Combat.
17:21:13 <diebot> Normal: If you wield a second weapon in your off hand, you can get one extra attack per round with that weapon. When fighting in this way you suffer a –6 penalty with your regular attack or attacks with your primary hand and a –10 penalty to the attack with your off hand. If your off-hand weapon is light, the penalties are reduced by 2 each.
17:21:13 <diebot> An unarmed strike is always considered light. Source: Core
17:23:41 <Avatar> yo
17:29:22 <Steven> suuuuuuuuuuuuuup
17:29:28 <Steven> im feelin kinda bord.
17:29:30 <Steven> bored.
17:29:43 <Steven> talkin to a guy about con organization.
17:29:54 <Steven> drinkin a coke.
17:30:01 <Steven> so far the day seems pretty good.
17:31:53 <Mekkis> yo
17:32:06 <Mekkis> !hp 3d8m3
17:32:09 <diebot> Mekkis, 27
17:32:27 <Avatar> do any of you recall any scenarios where you couldn't extract a map
17:32:33 <Mekkis> no
17:32:43 <Avatar> good because I have found one
17:32:47 <Avatar> how would you normally do it
17:32:54 <Mekkis> find page
17:32:58 <Mekkis> use pdfimages
17:33:07 <Mekkis> use images
17:33:11 <Avatar> is pdfimages the command line one
17:33:20 <Mekkis> yeah
17:33:24 <Avatar> ug
17:33:26 <Mekkis> airbrush over the spoilers if needed
17:33:56 <Avatar> there's a way to get this map out with adobe reader, but I don't have that and don't particularly want to have it
17:34:09 <Avatar> doing the same method with foxit doesn't seem to work
17:34:17 <Avatar> might be time to finally try nitropdf
17:34:20 <Mekkis> if I'm getting it printed, I'll then load into inkscape, set up the grid, and scale it
17:34:24 <Mekkis> what scenario?
17:34:29 <Avatar> library of the lion
17:34:43 <Avatar> I wanted to get an officeworks job on it today but I couldn't get the damn thing extracted this morning
17:35:40 <Mekkis> if I'm getting it canvas printed, I'll then get Inkscape to do vectorisation and resign myself to having a very slow PC for an hour
17:35:51 <Mekkis> does it contain spoilers? the map that is?
17:36:33 <Avatar> very much so
17:44:14 <Mekkis> I need to come up with a name
17:44:18 <Mekkis> for my character
17:44:30 <Avatar> class/concept?
17:44:59 <Mekkis> Inquisitor of Ackeakek
17:45:24 <Avatar> Edgareka
17:46:08 <Avatar> I reckon that's pretty intuitive for a GM to spell when they write up the init board
17:46:18 <Avatar> instead of Examiner
17:48:13 <Mekkis> hn
17:59:32 <Mekkis> I blame John for that
18:08:58 <Avatar> all your characters have funky names like that though
18:10:14 <Mekkis> better than "joke" names
18:10:28 <Mekkis> or "popular culture" names
18:10:32 <Mekkis> or "bob"
18:12:18 <Damalon01> lol yes much better
18:14:04 <Mekkis> can't believe you're complaining about exotic names in a fantasy roleplaying game

18:25:52 <Avatar> it's a problem when people can barely remember them to say them
18:26:05 <Avatar> or can't spell them to write them down so they can remember them
18:26:09 <Brunius> How do you find your names, Mekkis?
18:27:49 <Avatar> kernighan was an injoke either nobody understood or nobody liked
18:27:56 <Mekkis> exactly
18:28:10 <Mekkis> Brunius, depends on the race
18:28:26 <Mekkis> for an elvish name, I will go to Races of the Wild
18:29:03 <Mekkis> for a human name, I'll try to find something about the region its from
18:30:29 <Mekkis> Avatar, want me to bring a cooler down from ACT for you?
18:30:59 <Avatar> what do you mean a cooler
18:31:32 <Mekkis> evaporative cooler
18:31:42 <Avatar> no man I'm good
18:31:45 <Avatar> 40 degree days are over
18:31:52 <Mekkis> ok
18:32:04 <Mekkis> I have a 64kg luggage allowance
18:32:09 <Mekkis> and I don't plan to use any of it

18:32:48 <Mekkis> carry-on

18:36:38 <Avatar> pathfinder
18:37:29 <CQ> ahhh...
18:37:43 <CQ> i played 3.5 about 2 years ago with some friends, just trying it out
18:37:53 <CQ> it was really fun, but they decided to quit for some reason
18:38:06 <CQ> that's really been my only experience in tabletop rpg
18:38:19 <Mekkis> IF someone were to run a 3.5 game, I'd be up for it
18:39:18 <CQ> i gave all my books away, i'd probably have to download them lol
18:40:04 <Mekkis> Avatar, you still running your XDCC bot?
18:41:13 <Avatar> what xdcc bot
18:41:25 <Avatar> for books? no, not for years
18:41:34 <Avatar> it broke and I could never work out how to fix it

18:44:12 <CQ> oh
18:44:13 <CQ> snap
18:44:53 <Avatar> CQ: once you look at pathfinder, there's no going back
18:45:10 <CQ> so it's like hotel california? :D
18:45:28 <CQ> i'm in the states, btw
18:45:37 <CQ> where are you guys from?
18:46:18 <Avatar> melbourne australia
18:46:36 <Avatar> seriously, we used to play 3.5
18:46:43 <Avatar> once you try pathfinder, that's it
18:46:47 <Avatar> it is basically 3.5 but better
18:46:57 <Avatar> there is no reason to say let's play the worse system instead
18:47:27 <Brunius> We're mainly from Australia, a couple of people from the states
18:48:04 <Avatar> the guys in the states just don't like staying online
18:48:14 <Avatar> which is a bit strange because you'd think they'd be more capable of doing so
18:50:47 <Brunius> A lot of people turn their computer off overnight
18:52:03 <s_gmusic> which isn't really necessary because most computers can run for a long time, provided no power surges or cooling issues. :\
18:52:07 <Avatar> apparently more americans than australians
18:52:25 <Avatar> the best reason to turn it off is to save on your electricity bill
18:52:38 <Avatar> not because the computer will fall apart sooner
18:52:40 <s_gmusic> well, can't argue that.
18:53:05 <Avatar> I turned off my microwave because it turned out I was never using it
18:53:14 <Avatar> it was just a nice looking clock
18:53:29 <Avatar> that was months ago
18:53:41 <Avatar> I feel silly for not having done so sooner
18:54:37 <s_gmusic> heh
18:59:56 <CQ> i rarely turn my computer off, but since it's a laptop, when i close the lid, the internet connection usually falls asleep with it
19:00:02 <CQ> i'm on linux
19:00:43 <CQ> lol
19:00:59 <CQ> also, i really need to start turning things off, my power bill is ridiculous
20:00:06 <Darkkapow> I got me a handy dany cloud irc
20:07:54 <s_gmusic> yay. making a cbox rage at me is surprisingly easy. all I have to do is speak in Doge.

21:31:40 <Wrothmonk> Hello
21:31:41 <Brunius> I haven't played a bard yet
21:32:18 <ASTN1337> So I kind of just found this place while looking for resources and wondered if anyone could help me out

21:34:01 <Darkkapow> Brunius you should give it to me :P
21:34:19 <Brunius> and what benefit would this grant me
21:34:28 <s_gmusic> what's up?
21:34:49 <Wrothmonk> What do you need help with?
21:34:53 <ASTN1337> I want to start GMing Pathfinder
21:35:13 <Darkkapow> *shrugs*
21:35:21 <ASTN1337> All I've played is DnD 4e
21:35:33 <s_gmusic> ok. have you played pathfinder before?
21:35:48 <ASTN1337> No just 4e both as a PC and DM
21:36:23 <Wrothmonk> Hrm, I haven't played 4e myself so I wouldn't be able to tell you whats the same and whats different unfortunetly.
21:36:38 <s_gmusic> Pathfinder is based off of D&D 3.5. any familiarity with that? or was it strictly 4e that you've learned?
21:37:17 <Darkkapow> you know your going to make a nagaji paladin like everyone else
21:37:19 <Darkkapow> or a samurai
21:37:33 <ASTN1337> Strictly 4e the guys at the game shop said pathfinder was more based on role playing and 4e was more combat centered
21:37:59 <Brunius> But I've already got a paladin
21:38:08 <s_gmusic> :/
21:38:33 <s_gmusic> any game can focus more on combat or role-playing, it's up to the players and DM. :\
21:39:01 <Darkkapow> order of the cockatrice samurai
21:39:06 <Wrothmonk> ^
21:39:20 <ASTN1337> I totally get that, but I think inherent in the feats and abilities there is less role playing in mind?
21:39:23 <Steven> Pathfinder is similar to 3.5 except combat has been smoothed out a bit.
21:39:44 <s_gmusic> ^
21:40:17 <s_gmusic> woot. just have to apply a wash to this werewolf, then seal/clear coat it and I'll be done.
21:40:42 <s_gmusic> o wait... base. =_=
21:40:59 <ASTN1337> I have good things about it and 4e always felt a bit awkward anyway people have pointed me to pathfinder, and now I am looking for GM centered advice like 3rd party resources or just tips from more experienced players
21:41:17 <ASTN1337> I'm fairly new to GMing in any game
21:41:34 <s_gmusic> and to go with that, most of Pathfinder Society is combat-focused, though there's starting to be a push to more non-combat missions.
21:42:35 <s_gmusic> I would recommend that if you want to GM pathfinder, find a way to play the game first for a while so you're familiar with the rules before jumping into the GM's seat.
21:43:01 <ASTN1337> The problem I would have is getting someone else to GM
21:43:17 <ASTN1337> some one would have to take the seat as a first timer
21:43:21 <Wrothmonk> You could always try PFS here, although it is different than normal pathfinder.
21:44:06 <ASTN1337> I kind of figured, seeing as how it's IRC but I am always up for a game of table top
21:46:34 birdseed has quit (Quit: )
21:56:23 <Steven> NOSE GOES!
21:56:31 * Steven touches nose.
21:56:36 * Wrothmonk touches nose
21:56:40 <ASTN1337> what?
21:56:56 <Wrothmonk> touch your nose or you have to gm.
21:57:05 <ASTN1337> touches nose
21:57:56 <Steven> no hes the guy who wants to play, he's immune.
21:58:40 <ASTN1337> I agree with Steven
21:58:46 <Wrothmonk> Ah ok.
21:58:56 * Wrothmonk peers at s_gmusic
21:59:18 <ASTN1337> What are these red texts?
21:59:31 <Wrothmonk> red?
21:59:44 <Steven> they are emotes, they are dont with /me
21:59:46 <Wrothmonk> must be your client. I'm guessing you're refering to /me
21:59:50 <ASTN1337> Like "touches nose" and "peers at"
22:01:08 <ASTN1337> if i do /me what happens?
22:01:17 <ASTN1337> or how do I do that?
22:01:44 * s_gmusic touches nose.
22:02:18 <Wrothmonk> if you type in /me (text here) it will come up as an action, however that shows up on everyone's client
22:03:02 <ASTN1337> does the text have to be in parentheses
22:03:07 <Wrothmonk> No
22:03:17 * ASTN1337 touches nose
22:03:25 <ASTN1337> Hey look at that
22:03:31 ChbQ has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
22:03:35 <s_gmusic> oh balls.
22:03:51 <s_gmusic> just sneezed and I had the lid open to my glade grass
22:03:53 <s_gmusic> >_____<
22:05:27 <ASTN1337> If we are playing don't I need a character?
22:05:38 <Wrothmonk> Hrm, true.
22:06:29 <ASTN1337> I don't really think any of my DnD characters would work, so what do you guys use to make your characters?
22:09:01 <Wrothmonk> You can create them on the website; http://pfrpg.com.au/
22:09:15 <ASTN1337> TY
22:09:40 <Steven> ?guide
22:09:40 <diebot> Steven, Guide to the Pathfinder Society Organised Play, available at http://paizo.com/products/btpy84k4
22:09:48 <Steven> you'll probably want that
22:11:45 <ASTN1337> There is a combat assist as well?
22:17:54 <ASTN1337> Do I just paste the IRC address into combat assist?
22:18:23 <Wrothmonk> No, you put in the host's ip address.
22:19:12 <ASTN1337> Do we know who the host is yet?
22:19:31 <Wrothmonk> Well, s_g touched his nose last.
22:21:29 <ASTN1337> I may need a minute to read this guide over
22:43:12 <ASTN1337> Is there a suggested faction I should play as?
22:44:55 <Wrothmonk> I don't think factions really matter that much anymore, faction missions were removed if I recall correctly. Just pick what faction your character would pick.
22:45:03 Steven ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
22:45:30 <ASTN1337> I think I am just going to use a pre-made character to make things easier right now
22:47:30 <Steven> hey
22:48:38 <s_gmusic> hey
22:49:03 <s_gmusic> I need a better camera. using my phone results in too much potato. :(
22:49:45 <Steven> right...
22:50:07 <s_gmusic> what?
22:51:20 <ASTN1337> Are we starting at level one?
22:51:39 <s_gmusic> oh right, less internet and more english.
22:51:59 <s_gmusic> "I need a better camera than the one on my phone so that my pictures have a better quality to them."
22:52:14 <Steven> no i just have zero interest in phones.
22:53:21 <s_gmusic> ....not what I was getting at, but okay.
22:55:00 <Steven> my phone died, i replaced it with the exact model
22:55:16 <Steven> because i didnt want to learn a new phone lol
22:55:24 <s_gmusic> what kind was it?
22:55:42 <Steven> a blackberry
22:56:14 <s_gmusic> ah
22:56:51 <Steven> only reason i bought it was the qwerty keyboard
22:57:20 <Steven> hate the touch screen keyboards, the split keys, the traditional keyboard.
22:57:26 <Steven> on phones
22:57:32 <Steven> with the 3 letters per number
22:57:35 <Steven> fuckin annoying
23:00:42 <flouence> http://www.2girls1cup.nl/
23:02:13 <s_gmusic> also annoying: figs that are shaped in such a way that there are difficult corners to paint
23:09:14 <s_gmusic> steven, have you painted/worked on many of the Reaper Bones figs?
23:10:53 <s_gmusic> nvm
23:11:28 <Steven> no, i cant paint, even enamel paint makes enough fumes.
23:11:43 <Steven> that my lungs get kinda funky
23:12:40 <s_gmusic> ouch :(
23:25:01 <Steven> pretty much any fume makes my lungs ache.
23:25:09 <Steven> it really sucks.
23:25:34 Damalon01 has quit (Quit: )
23:29:46 <s_gmusic> were you exposed to something really harsh before or are you asthmatic?
23:30:18 <Steven> asthmatic
23:31:28 <s_gmusic> ah. simple enough, then. glad it wasn't something like you breathed in acidic fumes and they scarred your lungs.
23:35:36 <Steven> nah, i aspirated vomit when i got me lovely case of bronchial pneumonia
23:36:58 <Steven> so yeah, it was pretty sucky
23:37:49 <s_gmusic> .... vomit = stomach acid = hydrochloric acid... >.>
23:38:17 <s_gmusic> though it is a small amount, though.
23:38:22 <s_gmusic> derp
23:38:28 <s_gmusic> said "though" twice. :\
