 Thefluffiestguineapig: @LoadingReadyRun As is tradition right next to the room mic
 idontgetmyrealname: @LoadingReadyRun the burning cameras really add to the ambience
ThorSokar writes down Beej has joined Ian in the venerable status of starting a fire in the Moonbase
 PharaohBender27: A fire in the Moonbase - have we learned nothing from the Sims incident!? 
ButButTheJesus: @LoadingReadyRun also I appreciate the reference to Newspaper Happycat 
 tehfewl: what is the drink of choice for this evening?
 ArdCollider: 
   LoadingReadyRun: That said, I HAVE laced one of their glasses with diphenylhydramine.  See if you can guess which one.

 accountmadeforants: 
ihlendrax: Didn’t get a stream notification. Turns out Twitch switched my settings over to Personalized rather than Always. Ugh!
 IanAllenBird: hello chat, happy solstice
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @HorusFive Why not both?
 DarkMorford: @LoadingReadyRun Could be worse, you could have slipped them dihydrogen monoxide
  Juliamon: I think "starting a fire" has to be accidental to qualify
 PharaohBender27: @tehfewl From the social media post, it looks like something called "Glen Kette" (sp?)
 SymphonySolstice: Blessed Solstice everyone 🌞 🌜I have used my biannual power boost to finish assembling my new crafting desk. now I am situated with maple hot chocolate and smores cookies.

 idontgetmyrealname: this is a good pallet cleanser after 4 hours of revolutionary theory over with SPice
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: I wish it was easier to have whiskey ordered and shipped internationally.  We have some good local ones that I wish I could send to them
 Thefluffiestguineapig: The good people of Mail Time are always super generous with the bottles they send for this
 PharaohBender27: OK seeing it front-on I see it's call Glen Keith
before_damage: They swapped chairs this year?
 RockPusher: 
 jessicatheblack: The Chaos sweater is too good  
rhodgejr: All is right in the world, Cam in the Chaos sweater
ButButTheJesus: 
 Atarra: Love the fancy lighting 
Snowcookies: no reading material this year?
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff Yeah, looking at what it takes on MT plus the cost that's a big investment
ButButTheJesus: the reading material is YOUR SOUL
 Territan: I expect Ian will pull a book out later.
 accountmadeforants: @Snowcookies What if we're the reading material?
 jessicatheblack: whoever worked on the Xmas Tree did a great job 
 DigitalSeahorse: I swore I read 6pm on the schedule
RedArrogantKnight: ah my most medium christmas tradition has returned

 Sheikun07:    
 PharaohBender27: (Looks up whiskey brand) Oh that bottle cost a fair bit, it seems
Snowcookies: Oh yeah a tree
 DarkMorford: I have some brownies coming out of the oven in about 5 minutes
 Diabore: a technical question, should this be in just chatting? i think special events fits better
 LordZarano:  
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: It always makes me smile when I see the gift I made for them several years ago appear on the shelves in the background
 DigitalSeahorse: mmm one of these has some rum in it
 accountmadeforants:  Nice tree
 margieargie: @PharaohBender27 No kidding, I'm seeing it at 400-500 USD
 Territan: I picked up groceries today. Somehow I didn't get the nogs. I feel incomplete now.
  LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
 CaptainSpam: Good whiskey ain't cheap.
 margieargie: Actually make that over 500, I mixed it up with the 26-year-old at first
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @PharaohBender27 Yeah, I started googling what people send for this specifically to Mail Time and it's VERY generous
 DigitalSeahorse: hello Ian and Cameron

 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @CaptainSpam sometimes you get lucky and get "reasonbly priced" though.  That's different to me than "cheap"
 DigitalSeahorse: lovely sweater and socks Cameron has on this year
 calculated_uncertainties: @HorusFive They look nice, though.
 RockPusher: a cool NZ$1k was the first local result returned, so a very good tipple indeed
 accountmadeforants: I think it's always the same person sending expensive drinks for today (the chairman), but I may be wrong?
 DarkMorford: I've never been much of a nog drinker, but I should have picked some up to see if my taste has changed at all. Even just a quart.
 Thefluffiestguineapig: After a super hard year, this warms my heart to see. Thank you both and all of chat for making this happen year after year
  Juliamon: !what
  LRRbot: The drink: Glen Keith 28-year-old | The book: none! | The data: https://tinyurl.com/aCamandIanChristmas | The past: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsy9DTCWSlniUheVKNr-P4MtfqOsT_uDO
 DigitalSeahorse: I wonder what pin Ian chose
 Singenmeister: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff And when food costs are where they are, “cheap” can get really relative.
 ArdCollider: god, I was at the drugstore when the go-live hit, good thing it's only a few blocks
 Thefluffiestguineapig: Also I absolutely add another up vote to Cam having a great sweater and socks
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @Singenmeister also true
 Piratical_tendancies: I am personally having a lovely whisky from Australia - Starward Nova
 PharaohBender27: I see the spreadsheet is already underway 
Snowcookies: I love 
 Dalrint: Wow it's a lot more christmasy than usual
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @PharaohBender27 Watching it live update is amusing as always
jarnatan: Have I missed much?
 DarkMorford: @PharaohBender27 Chat loves nothing more than their data
 MyrddintheWizard: Highland Park Scotch.
Snowcookies: oh yeah those are some nice socks
 DigitalSeahorse: question for chat:  should I be worried that one of these egg nogs separated before I opened it?
 ladyjessica:   
  Texan_Reverend:   
 accountmadeforants: @jarnatan At least a few sips
 PharaohBender27: @jarnatan Mostly just the bottle opening/pour and the first few sips
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: I wish I could try the whisky they have, I tend to like Speyside scotches, it's my favorite region
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @DarkMorford Eh, I think it's tied with their recurring bits
 Thefluffiestguineapig: Also I disagree with the reading material being nothing, the reading material is chat
 DigitalSeahorse: separated meaning it needed shaking cause it looked semi clear on top
PorpoisesUnknown: this might be the best thing ever put onto the internet
 CaptainSpam: @Thefluffiestguineapig Are you sure they're reading chat?
 Piratical_tendancies:    
 accountmadeforants: @Thefluffiestguineapig New York Times Best Seller: Twitch Chat
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: Do they actually have Chat up on the display?  Are they able to read us right now?

 DigitalSeahorse: @margieargie oh good, it smells fine thankfully
 PharaohBender27: @LordChrusher Correct!
jundmaster3000: fine choice of that 28y
 ArdCollider: @DigitalSeahorse the emulsion probably broke and shaking it will make it hang out for a little while longer.
 DigitalSeahorse: I'm comparing 4 different egg nogs this year
nqbw: Is anyone keeping track of their blinks in case they're sending messages via Morse code?
 accountmadeforants: If you can't read this, please start yelling and don't stop until the end of the stream.
 ArdCollider: egg nog: festive mayo
 CaptainSpam: Remember, chat, no backseating.  It's right there in the tags.
jarnatan: Ain't no way this is a first time playthrough
 accountmadeforants: @CaptainSpam More importantly, we have to watch Birdie Wing
 margieargie: @CaptainSpam Don't worry, this is so engaging I'm on the edge of my seat, nowhere near the back at all!
 ladyjessica: hey, I’ve got to take care of something, can you stay here? I’ll be right back.
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: This is a first time playthrough?

 DigitalSeahorse: xD lol yes, burning tree
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: 800 800 bits for the Eighth night of Hanukkah
ThorSokar: @KBKarma Yes: https://vst.ninja/south/
 PharaohBender27: Speaking of it being different each year, remember last (?) year when there was the reveal that the fire was REAL?
 HorusFive: Cam- ceding his hold on the glass.  A bold move.  Let's see if Horner takes the bait
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @PharaohBender27 And we were speculating the entire time before that
 wedge_x: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/2S88PfdJ3Pg/sddefault.jpg
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @PharaohBender27 wsa it two years ago that they went from silent whisky to cracking beers and starting LoadingReadyLive?
  ritchards: dang, I lost the ability to show jpgs,etc...
 corianderd: @wedge_x merry godzilla to you too!
 DigitalSeahorse: I see some blinking
 wedge_x: @corianderd and also with you!
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff I thought that was last year Cam did that? What is time
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: I think it was 2 years ago they went right into Live.
 PharaohBender27: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff Right, I think that was 2023, and last year was real fire
Despoiler98: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff that was hilarious
 Ard_Rhys: Can we really call this a "Just Chatting" stream if not a single word is said the entire time?
 KBKarma: @ThorSokar Thanks to you and @Juliamon for linking to those.
 Singenmeister: Oh wait is this the 10th anniversary of this?
  Juliamon: 11th
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @Ard_Rhys well, WE are just chatting!
 SymphonySolstice: it's Just Chatting because it's only chat
 DigitalSeahorse: two of these taste almost identical
 Sheikun07: @Ard_Rhys You mean you aren't hearing their thoughts?
 margieargie: @Ard_Rhys They're saying much without need for words
  ritchards: Could call it a "mukbang" stream
ThiccNuggt: is this a screensaver?
Snowcookies: I don't think there's a yule log category on Twitch 
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: I recently watched the live from yesterday where they did the other versions of this.
pyrelight: this is tradition, that is all that matters.

  Juliamon: Just Chat
 accountmadeforants: I still occasionally think about the most Earth-shattering moment of 2022, the Tinsel Drop: https://youtu.be/F0_p2O7P_eQ?t=1750
 Thefluffiestguineapig: I would call this a "just chatting" stream because there is no game and you don't want to anger the mighty twitch algorithm
Despoiler98: holy cow they've been doing this since 2015????
NarwhalsInATrenchcoat: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters I forgot about this, that was very funny
ThiccNuggt: @Juliamon omg...thats brilliant 10/10
  Juliamon: the tinsel controversy.....
Snowcookies: I kinda want to click snutmachimo tag but I'm afraid
pyrelight: and part of the tradition is christmas chaos united from cam.
TheOges: Oh I'm late, did I miss anything?
jarnatan: I wonder what the training regimen leading up to this year's event has been like
 KBKarma: Just looked up the price of that whiskey. Dang.
SnowBuddy18: @Snowcookies it's just this, nobody else
 lamina5432: so is there a real fire this year?
 RockPusher: deliberate contemplation is a form of conversation, I'd call that chatting
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: I like Cams jeans.  I should get a nice pair of grey jeans
ThiccNuggt: @Snowcookies be not afriad, its only them
 KBKarma: And I thought a Redbreast 12 year was expensive.
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @NarwhalsInATrenchcoat Especially Jacob and Beej
 HorusFive: @TheOges Pretty standard and gentlemanly opening
 corianderd: hmmm if Ian is there then that means all the whiskey we have at home is unattended <_<
 PharaohBender27: @corianderd 
 RockPusher: lamina5432 the fire makes real light, so sure

 Thefluffiestguineapig: @corianderd That's true, it is unguarded by Ian

Snowcookies: Ian will never know, and we're not gonna snitch
 KBKarma: @ButButTheJesus No! Sip sip sip! Just sip a *lot*
 corianderd: @jacqui_lantern234 I am home you double coward!

 nqbw: That's a good leg cross swap. Well done.
 wedge_x: @corianderd I see no downside
 SymphonySolstice: I miss my wood burning fireplaces. we have 2 in the house but my parents converted both of them to gas

 RealGamerCow: I like Cameron's socks
 BOTGrant: I would like to know more about Cam's socks.
 Thefluffiestguineapig: I'm going to assume Cori has sampled most of the whiskeys they have
 PharaohBender27: @KBKarma I want to say that was . . . 2022?
BirkaBirkowski: Ian's posture is nothing short of inspiring
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @KBKarma that was two or three years ago, I think
 DigitalSeahorse: well if you really like rum flavor in your egg nog Neilson's with the sleigh on the carton is the most rummy to me
 Redbassist: Shroom socks?

 DigitalSeahorse: not sure if DnD sweater or if video game
 Singenmeister: @KBKarma And sadly my parents did the reverse. I grew up with a real fireplace we used all the time. Now it’s electric.
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @NarwhalsInATrenchcoat I think on the spreadsheet they document coughing and throat clearing
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @protojman well, at the moment, you're enjoying a quiet moment with a whole bunch of Chat Friends, that seems like a nice way to take some time during the holidays
 lirazel64: Love to see a good savor.
 electra310: I figured out how to get this on my folks massive TV. they’re nearly life size
   Anubis169: mmmm, fire and a good whisky
 Thefluffiestguineapig: That for sure is a savoring whiskey
 DigitalSeahorse: I also now have oatmeal that's getting cold lol
 Sheikun07: You should eat that
 DigitalSeahorse: didn't have time to eat it before
Despoiler98: I have leftover lasagna
 BOTGrant: You know the behind the scenes special for this is going to be a BANGER
 electra310: very nice sweater from Cam this year. any book yet?
 Mazrae: I didn't think I needed a warhammer sweater before this stream but looking at Cam's I really do need to get one now
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @BOTGrant True, we have no clue what Beej is doing right now
 margieargie: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters That's always a bad sign
 RockPusher: hmmmm, whisky is made from grain… so it is a cereal… so you can request it for GMM appearances!
ArtemisHuntress: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters sounds ominous
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: Beej is getting the bat
  Juliamon: We know what he's not doing, though: messing up
 protojman: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff  
 DigitalSeahorse: I think the book is getting skipped
 KBKarma: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters I was going to say meeting up with Cori to sample whiskey, but I don't think Beej likes alcohol at all.
 PharaohBender27: Glasses adjustment!  Has that happened before!?
  Juliamon: (Beej is on tech tonight)
 idontgetmyrealname: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters beej just sitting in the booth: Ok good it's running I will touch NOTHING

ThorSokar: Beej could be doing the harlem shake and we wouldn't even know
 DigitalSeahorse: ah yes, probably warhammer sweater
 emilevitt: 
 Thefluffiestguineapig: Do we document glasses adjustments and things?
 Cptasparagus: im drinking George Dickel, its pretty good cheap whiskey
jarnatan: @ThorSokar That's pretty much always the case though
 RealGamerCow: are they having the whisky straight or with water?
 margieargie: Beej is doing an excellent job making sure their voices aren't too loud or soft, at least
 electra310: Those whiskey glasses are amazing
 PharaohBender27: @RealGamerCow Straight. We saw them do the pours.
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @margieargie Yes, currently he is doing a great job with the audio on the mics
 ladyjessica: looked straight to me but I wasn’t watching the whole time to verify.
 DigitalSeahorse: absolutely silent placing of the glass is a skilled move by Cameron
 KBKarma: @electra310 Oh, they are actually.
dread_persephone: this is my favourite holiday thing, thank you for this.
 Redbassist: Gotta ride the levels on this show for sure
 TheWriterAleph: shoot i'm late. what did i miss?
 PharaohBender27: Also pretty sure watering a whiskey that costs as much as the one they have would be considered a GIANT faux pas
 accountmadeforants: I can't hear the game over their voices 
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @TheWriterAleph opening bottle, pouring, sipping, blinking, silence
 KBKarma: Now that I'm allowed alcohol again (in *very* limited quantities), I should try whiskey one day.
 ladyjessica: @TheWriterAleph it’s too far in to give the details. gotta catch up.
jarnatan: To long-time fans of the sport, what has been the most significant changes to the meta over the years?
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @TheWriterAleph about 24 sips and 2 leg switches.
  ritchards: Just imagine a Ben & Adam Christmas...
 TheWriterAleph: damn, full night, eh
 measureofhope: So glad I didn't miss this
  ritchards: wasn't there a LRL bit where other people did this?
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @ritchards it's just them banning members of Chat over and over
 Vinewood_OG: @ritchards 
 margieargie: @jarnatan I'm excited for Cam's no-book style this year, it's a bold choice
 KBKarma: Yeah, I was thinking that.
 ladyjessica: @ritchards hall of the mountains king ringing out
 PharaohBender27: @ritchards Yes, last year, I believe
 DigitalSeahorse: woops, just dropped keyboard as my oatmeal nearly toppled
 BOTGrant: Nice of them to add John Cage's most famous piece for a little ambience.
 DigitalSeahorse: good thing oatmeal is sticky
ThorSokar: @jarnatan There was the year James came out and had a glass
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @ritchards Last year it had the Ben and Serge? one? Eating Korean? fried chicken
  Juliamon: jarnatan The live-fireplace move last year was very controversial, but too expensive in the long run
 DigitalSeahorse: none of it spilled
 PharaohBender27: And each of those got clipped *except* for the Kathleen and Nelson one because Twitch claimed the music
  Simriel: Oh no, I forgot this was happening! I hope I didn't miss all the excitement
 Loa_Ayizan: It's been another "interesting" year out in the world, but on LRR things are good, and I really appreciate that. Thanks for everything you all do. It's funny to say it helps, but it helps!
 Serifina: hmmmmm… yep all looks good here.
 PharaohBender27: @Loa_Ayizan 
Despoiler98: Is james the only guest star they've had on the official stream of this?
 Sheikun07: @Serifina  you missed Cam pushing up his glasses
 accountmadeforants: @ritchards Honestly they *could* probably stay quiet the whole time, they're both very good at committing to the bit 
 Serifina: @sheikun07 gasp
ButButTheJesus: @LoadingReadyRun same 
Snowcookies: We're not starting fires, we promise
 KBKarma: Where does the undrunk whiskey go after?
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: I would assume Ian takes it home
 Dread_Pirate_Westley: The differing styles are fascinating, with Ian holding his glass for extended periods while Cameron sets his down after each sip.
 KBKarma: *You* promise.
 DigitalSeahorse: Simriel not much has happened, I missed the pouring start cause I was too busy pouring my own in the kitchen, I'm comparing 4 different nogs this year
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @KBKarma there's no such thing, there is only whiskey that hasn't been drunk yet
 BOTGrant: The inclusion of lav mics? Inspired choice.
 HorusFive: @accountmadeforants "A Ben and Adam Xmas" sounds suspiciously close to the "Airing of Grievences"
 EikoandMog: Is it bad I half watch these just to get whiskey recommendations?
 lirazel64: They have sometimes brought back 5
 ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: @BOTGrant occasionally one of them coughs or sniffs.  we gotta pick it all up
 DigitalSeahorse: now I taste caramel almost
 margieargie: @BOTGrant Hey, we have to be able to hear all of what they say during these streams
 DarkMorford: Do we know what this year's yule loop is?
 Redbassist: I like the tinsel on this year's tree
 BOTGrant: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff Fair point!
 Singenmeister: @BOTGrant omg how did I miss that. amazing.
 eshplode: Whoops. I thought this started in 5 minutes from now. I've missed so much important stuff!
 KBKarma: @ThreeTwoOnePantsOff What I mean is, after the shoot, do they drink the leftover whiskey, or does it go home with someone, or is it shared around the office.

 HorusFive: Cam- going into his mind palace.  Is his resolve flagging?  Or just gathing strngth
 accountmadeforants: @KBKarma The LRR office has a plastic bin where all the unused Christmas drinks get thrown in and mixed. Once it's full it's predicted to have a cumulative vintage of 40,000.
asddsa28: im so sad i missed most of it i will have to go back and rewach as this is one of my fav things to do during the halladays
 HorusFive: @Vinewood_OG Not the rest of us.  Just the 2 of them

ThorSokar: @s1ck1y It might be the most thoroughly documented LRR stream!
 DigitalSeahorse:     
 BOTGrant: What d'ya suppose they're thinking about? And why do you think it's Robocop?
 DigitalSeahorse:  
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @BOTGrant It probably is now
 DarkMorford: @ThorSokar It would have to be either this or LRRmans
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @BOTGrant I think Ian is thinking about either Yakuza or Gundam
ArtemisHuntress: also hello to all the mums and mum-adjacent folks
Despoiler98: @BOTGrant statistically? One of them is thinking about the Roman Empire

 KBKarma: I think Ian is thinking about Ian thinking about something.
 Thefluffiestguineapig: I think Ian's equivalent to the Roman empire is either Yakuza or Gundam of some kind
 RockPusher: !quote ian
  LRRbot: Quote #4548: "Don't go away, more BS after this!" —Ian [2017-12-13]
 DigitalSeahorse: now I see a leaf on the sock
 Dread_Pirate_Westley: @ArtemisHuntress I'm thinking about the Greeks, just to be different.
 Thefluffiestguineapig: That's a very Ian quote
 accountmadeforants: @BOTGrant I think the reason they're thinking about Robocop is because Cori probably mentioned Murderbot again.
Despoiler98: @ArtemisHuntress or Holes, could be thinking about Holes
 jacqui_lantern234: @KBKarma the inner machinations of his mind are an enigma 
 HorusFive: @KBKarma Recursive Mind Emptying

 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @Thefluffiestguineapig Beej is running tech tonight
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @HorusFive Now I just want to rewatch Angry Zen Master
 margieargie: I'm thinking about the late Roman Republic, completely different thing of course
 Dread_Pirate_Westley: @ArtDecoSunburn ...Batman.
 electra310: Every jumbled pile of Ian has a thinking part that wonders what the Ian that isn’t thinking isn’t thinking of
ArtemisHuntress: I'm thinking about how cool it would have been to have contributed to the production of the Lord of the Rings movies
Ivalenz_: 
denkabot: I love that I don't need to wait till Christmas to feel like my family is silently judging me !
 jacqui_lantern234: @ArtDecoSunburn holy roman empire, batman!!! 
Despoiler98: Alright time for the second half!
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters I know, I'm wondering if chat got him and he's laughing at something
 Sheikun07: !quote cameron
  LRRbot: Quote #428: "We've got 'Sword of Immune to Goyf.'" —Cameron [2015-07-08]
jarnatan: I think I heard somewhere that Ian's secret tech here is to just empty his mind rather than have it be full of things. He supposedly gets real passionate about it too
Despoiler98: need a strong 4th quarter
 Myrniss: @LRRbot wait what?
ButButTheJesus: @jacqui_lantern234 
 DigitalSeahorse: I think Ian chose a blue theme this year
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @jacqui_lantern234 Something not holy, Roman and only sometimes an Empire!
 Vinewood_OG: @Thefluffiestguineapig Angry Zen Master Christmas already open in another tab
 PharaohBender27: @Myrniss (in dog time)
 ArtDecoSunburn: @jacqui_lantern234 Robin would make a good, gullible prince elector. Margrave of Brandenburg, perhaps.
 Aquarionics: My players think my current campaign is alluding to Arthurian myth, so mostly I'm thinking about if they're right or not and how much more I need to read to stay ahead of the theorycrafting.
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: I was thinking about the updog command recently. As one does

ArtemisHuntress: I remember on DB, someone debuted some really nice jeans that were so stiff they could practically stand up themselves. Are those Ian's?
 Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh, chat will enjoy this. My therapist's office loves Angry Zen Master after I showed it to them. It's a queer affirming office and all the providers find the sketches hilarious
Despoiler98: OMG EYEBALL SCRATCHING
 CaptainSpam: Cam has been employing a throwback strategy of not having a book; that's really been throwing the competition off their guard.
poipal: Ah, this is perfect, I was just thinking I could use some ambient background noise for a nap
 Thefluffiestguineapig: Ian is already aware of this, I told him during a home stream
 PharaohBender27: I remember watching the Crapshoot for Angry Zen Master Christmas. I had sent a card and letter for Mail Time just earlier that day.
 jacqui_lantern234: @ArtDecoSunburn omg we need to establish Batman characters as analogues to notable people from the Holy Roman Empire!!!!! 
ArtemisHuntress: I like Cameron's decorative socks
 accountmadeforants: @Aquarionics That's a very fun problem to have 
 electra310: Cameron is head to toe festive
 KBKarma: @Thefluffiestguineapig Oh, that's fantastic.
 ArtDecoSunburn: @Thefluffiestguineapig All the paperwork of an empire, none of the cohesion. It was a regime mostly based on letter seals that meant more than the contents of the letters they sealed.
 jacqui_lantern234: @PharaohBender27 youre welcome for my stupid crapshot ideas 
Sergue_Thorien: Currently enjoying a Spey Tenne while apple sauce is cooking

Ularl_Platypus: OH YEAH, the most important stream of the year
 KBKarma: @SymphonySolstice I've got some socks with Michelangelo the artist on them. They had the name of Michelangeltoes.

 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: It was the best of times, it was the blorst of times.
ArtemisHuntress: I have socks with racoons eating PB&J sandwiches. I wear them under my nice work shoes.

 KBKarma: @BOTGrant Is *that* how that's spelled? I thought it was like cru d'etait or something.
 DigitalSeahorse: I misread the time but was here early and had to go grab egg nog

ArtemisHuntress: @VorlonScout I was also a physics major and I think the only class I hated more than Thermo was Quantum (both were fairly useless)
 PharaohBender27: @I_Drink_To_Forget_Thermo I honestly feel like I learned some deep lore there - I always recognize your username and for a long time just assumed Thermo was some game or media property.

 KBKarma: @Desruprot   
 I_Drink_To_Forget_Thermo: @amillioncatsontypewriters so he had a heart attack while playing basketball before lecture. Medically dead for two minutes. Resuscitated, got a pacemaker. Wrote us an email from his hospital bed about how he saw the kid and everything, and life is like a candle. Obviously he was out for the semester, and they replaced him with the absolute bus hole we had for dynamics the semester prior
 KBKarma: Also, it is indeed spelled Crudités.
Oscelot: Happy Solstice chat, crew o/ So glad I didn't miss this this year. And perfect timing!
 DigitalSeahorse: hopefully my stomach doesn't protest 4 cups of egg nog that I'm comparing, I should probably lactaid too

ArtemisHuntress: Crudite rhymes with luddite
 Redbassist: !ian

Oscelot: @DigitalSeahorse *dumps lactaid over/in seahorse's lap*

 PharaohBender27: I should check my local thrift shop to see if they have decorative drink glasses . . .
 DigitalSeahorse: true 11
Oscelot: Also wow, y'all have absolutely decked out the set for this year. It looks *gorgeous* @LoadingReadyRun . What a gift 
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Just to be contrarian, I'm reading it as 1334.

 BartholemewTheKitten: Cam's shirt is singing "Deck the halls with parts of bodies" to me
 Singenmeister: How has it already been 45 minutes? I think I’ll need to play some VODs to keep the vibe going after this.

 Thefluffiestguineapig:   Cunoblenos
  Juliamon: Dalrint He did say at the end of Long Game that he might not
 DigitalSeahorse: to reference Invader Zim
 ArtDecoSunburn: @Aquarionics Santa got tariffed.

Oscelot: 100 Thank you for this every year, but especially this one
 SymphonySolstice: yes merry solstice to you all, from your resident Solstice

Oscelot: @SymphonySolstice No wonder we're such a lucky community, the solstices are on our side XD
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @BOTGrant No, too noisy
johnobriant: Just arrived - that’s quite a bottle of whiskey right there.

  Simriel: Nows where the action really ramps up
 gsyhiap: This is exceptional content to mop the floors to after my pub shift...
 DigitalSeahorse: figgy pudding cookie
 Thefluffiestguineapig: This seems like a good whiskey this year, there's a lot of sniffs
 VorlonScout: @corianderd Time to put the whiskey away and establish plausible deniability
  Simriel: Oh, no Book for Cameron this year?
Oscelot: @wedge_x There's something super charming about the print quality on that
Oscelot: Nope @Simriel
 sporkraptor: do fires actually make that much noise, or is the sound "enhanced"? I haven't been around a real fireplace in long enough that I don't remember
 ArtDecoSunburn: @BartholemewTheKitten Clearly Santa is the Great Horned Rat of the Skaven.
Oscelot: @sporkraptor They can yes
  Juliamon: sporkraptor Sometimes
 corianderd: @VorlonScout oh I already put it away 
  CantWearHats: this sound about right for a big fire
 margieargie: @sporkraptor Depends on the wood, mostly
 BOTGrant: What are the odds that this is all a ruse meant to establish alibi? And the boys are actually committing a heist somewhere?
 electra310: @sporkraptor Depends on the wood you burn, but yes
 sporkraptor: huh...
 wedge_x: https://live.staticflickr.com/5169/5276716723_c8bd4bf4d7.jpg
 tdapenguin: oh, @Thefluffiestguineapig , have you any large dog facts?
Oscelot: @margieargie Yeah, I think wetter wood pops more
 Strebenherz: @BOTGrant 100%
 VorlonScout: @corianderd of course you did, because you definitely didn’t take it out in the first place
fonkoncle: did they skip a loading ready live?
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @BOTGrant 22.7%
asddsa28: @sporkraptor some times it depends on the wood like popler will that why its called that it pops in fire
 BartholemewTheKitten: @ArtDecoSunburn I am intrigued by this theory, can you you elaborate?
 Sheikun07: @fonkoncle Live is next Saturday
  Juliamon: fonkoncle no, it's on Saturday
  Juliamon: !schedule
  LRRbot: Want to know what's coming up? Check out https://loadingreadyrun.com/live for an interactive schedule, or http://lrr.cc/schedule for a Google Calendar version.
 Redbassist: It's actually the sound of someone's joints as they get off of the couch they used for fire fx
BalthusHomewood: Rapid-fire blinking and breathing ACTION. Sunday. Sunday. SUNDAY!
   LoadingReadyRun: The stream is over 90% complete.  Has everyone made their wish by now?
Oscelot: @Redbassist *snicker*
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @tdapenguin Out of curiosity, how large of dog do you want? Just large breed or giant breed?
 ArtDecoSunburn: @BOTGrant "Graham's 11."
 RealGamerCow: pitch will also cause pops
 tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig ooh, giant if that's an option!
 PharaohBender27: @BOTGrant It would be the most amazing long-range heist plan, considering they started this a decade ago
 ladyjessica: oh is that why we don’t have a Boxing Day special, because of Live? ok
Oscelot: @LoadingReadyRun I'll wish for this coming year to be *way* better than the last one
 wedge_x: https://www.radioclash.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/4186095879_99cae9c503_o.jpg

 PharaohBender27: @ladyjessica I suspect people being out of town or otherwise busy is the bigger reason for that
Oscelot: @wedge_x Metal AF
Laxonian: A merry very Christmas to all
 margieargie: @LoadingReadyRun Yes, but I'm not sure how "infinite wishes" will go over
 corianderd: @Oscelot it's a good thing we had a replacement year lined up in the queue
 tdapenguin: @PharaohBender27 some poeple can plan! (not me, but other people, i'm told)
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @PharaohBender27 Or they do a heist every year
 electra310: gcheerwhal500 we wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year!
 DigitalSeahorse: @Oscelot

Oscelot: @corianderd "through the magic of buying two of them..."

Oscelot: @DigitalSeahorse Hehehe I'll send you some more on discord if you want
 ArtDecoSunburn: @BartholemewTheKitten Industrious workers make gadgets. Seen as a fairy tale by adults. Scamper around after dark. Eat milk and cookies.
 RockPusher: The time does fly when spent well in the company of friends 
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @tdapenguin First fact: giant breed is a genuine designation for the largest classification of dog breeds. Great Danes, Saint Bernards etc are considered giant breed as opposed to large breeds like standard poodles, German Short-haired pointers etc
 KBKarma: If you celebrate a holiday in the coming weeks, I hope you enjoy it. If you don't, I hope you have a peaceful and relaxing time.
 AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @BartholemewTheKitten Fine, I will watch Trapped In Paradise this year

 RandomTrivia: Don't forget, Chat, stream uptime includes the 4:45 intro screen
 Thefluffiestguineapig: @tdapenguin Other facts about giant breed dogs they have shorter life spans which is interesting. A Great Dane is considered elderly at 7 or 8 whereas that's still adult for other breeds. This is likely due to the over specification of these dogs and the fact they grow so large that it leads to many other problems.
