I think I'm the only person who didn't find the Roy Orbison episode particularly entertaining. It was fine for the car trip I was in, but a little dull after a while.

I thought it was really funny the first time, but I've only gone back to it once when I had a long plane flight and downloaded a shitload of F+ episodes. Maybe it's because you know where all the stories are going.

Definitely go to that guy's site and read the whole adventure game, by the way. They didn't get through half of it in the episode and it's wall to wall gold.

TetsuoTW posted:It's still one of only two episodes I haven't listened to, because I feel like that joke is just kind of played-out at this point. It's basically Tubgirl to me. The other one's the Sinead O'Connor one, because I've read enough of the source material to know it would just annoy the poo poo out of me. The Sinead O'Connor one's worth a listen just because by the end of it everyone's tried to ape an accent that they have no business ever trying and that's always worth a laugh.

The delivery really is as, if not moreso, important as what's being read. Wow that was a really badly formed sentence. Gimnbo fucked around with this message at 23:34 on Mar 6, 2014 |

The Roy Orbison Completely Covered In Cling-Film stuff is a classic, but something that really makes the episode is that they don't know it. They only knew it was a classic when it was told to them in the comments section later, so what you're seeing in the episode is a bunch of people hearing a classic for the first time.

I love that episode because they are all so genuinely happy while reading it. Like, they legitimately find every story to be the most exciting thing, even though, or perhaps because they know, where it's going. I believe every cheer in that episode was completely sincere, in a weird, passed-enjoying-it-ironically-into-actually-enjoying-it sort of way.

The other thing to keep in mind about the Roy Orbison episode is that they acknowledge that it's a joke; they're laughing with it on its own terms. What killed the Hans von Hozel (and creepypasta, to a lesser extent) episodes for me was that the material was obviously parodic but was treated as if sincere - no matter how funny, it's not nearly as good when delivered through people who seem to be missing the point. The Roy Orbison episode isn't like that at all, which might keep it from really fitting the podcast's theme but makes it great in its own chilled-out kind of way.

Rebochan posted:My only disappointment in the episode is that I guess I just didn't find them outrageous enough. Just being a "nerd wedding" is kind of mundane to me though the woman bragging about grabbing her husband's butt all the time was creepy as hell. And I'm still cursing that I googled Extreme Elvis and now I have to know what that is oh god my mind I'm going to assume that Extreme Elvis is just a skateboarding Elvis that does sick Shooting Star Presses.

So this is only tangentially related, but while I was reading it it made me think of rather a lot of our favorite subjects. Cracked posted an article from a dominatrix and phone sex operator about fetishes, and when she gets to the weird stuff it's like seeing an F Plus fetish episode from an entirely different side. The first page (particularly #4 and #3) is where most of the F Plus-y action is, but it's still a fascinating read past it and might help to explain a few of the weirder things we've faced.

If you aren't listening to Lou Reads the Internet, the latest episode is about Goons from 2005. Spoilers, Goons will always be horrible people. EDIT: Going through it, though, you can obviously tell which ones are bullshit. Champeenship fucked around with this message at 10:11 on Mar 12, 2014 |

There isn't a person exhibited on the F Plus that I want to meet more than BBoy360. There is no way in hell he wouldn't be hilarious to watch in reality, he's just that disconnected from everything while also not being borderline-dangerous or mentally ill. He's just incompetent.

How is BBoy360 not parody? Is he parody? I mean... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v29FDNEuahE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrqyg6w0BVg I suppose it could just be pure incompetence. There's a lot of things on the internet that are hard to tell whether or not they are jokes, and you feel embarrassed for not knowing right away if you're supposed to take them seriously.

You and I are buddies (or we just organize this online) and we play together and I just stand there and let you get your 50 headshots and then you stand there and let me get mine and we both get our fake internet points without the modicum of effort it would normally take.
