A Gameboy rumble pac would have to vibrate hard enough to split atoms before it could do any damage to the device. It's a hardy-rear end machine.

It still never caught on, though. People tried to bring it back on the GBA with Drill Dozer and I think Warioware: Twisted but then just sort of gave up on the idea.

That's probably what it was. I didn't actually have a Game Boy Colour when I got the game - I had a Game Boy Pocket. I kept the game until I got a GBC for whatever Pokémon game it was launched on it (would've been Gold and Silver, I reckon - I had Gold, my brother had Silver).

Number 6 holds The Village record in Duck Hunt.

The first one to kill :laugh: wins.

Watching some old episodes, it's amazing how little continuity matters. I cannot remember if Eddie being a virgin was just a joke, or a plot point, but apparently, he can still be a virgin after banging some older woman when he was 15.

It's amazing how this series really is the Hoff writing fanfiction for himself. "And then after Garner wins the basketball game, Mitch effortlessly dunks over Garner. Then Mitch bangs the princess and gets all the saves."

Also, when are we getting monkey lifeguard? And more importantly, is Monkey Lifeguard a better lifeguard than the rookies?

The Mitchstache is amazing, but it’s not nearly as great as Hasselhoff’s mustache as Garth Knight in Knight Rider.

I think the reason Rolfe stays relevant is because he stays out of drama, he knows how to be professional and present himself and his brand to the public. He cares about what he does, and the fans, and he knows what to keep private, and that makes him more likable, imo.

I think it helps also that James has interesting creative friends (instead of lazy broke schulbs like the rest of us :smith: ). Turns out that "Boosty Spankins P.I." has been calling himself that even before AVGN existed and is very talented musically, able to sing beautifully and play music.

And his Christmas album is free to listen on YouTube! Happy Holidays!

The Eddie virgin thing was my joke, because he reminds me of a small child and it's hard to imagine a woman finding him desirable.

Monkey lifeguard is like season 7 or 8, but it's amazing.

I had to rewind several times after I heard that line. Lou Rawls is fantastic. He's a main character on Baywatch Nights, and he even gets a storyline where they're held hostage at his night club and he gets shot.

Apparently? That shot of her hugging the kid was the punchline to Jeff Altman's character thinking she was going to hug him. it raises many questions since the kid remains unexplained.

I really look forward to reviewing it! I can guarantee the reviews will be funnier than the series, which is mostly confusing. The first season is just a detective show though and they actually try sometimes, which makes it waaaay better than season 2. One of their main characters in that season is a psychic (but she is not in season 2, the supernatural season), and at one point she is tied up on train tracks for like a kiddy train at a fair. One of my faves of season one is when Mitch and Garner go undercover at a chicken restaurant and then throw chicken at the bad guys.

Or the episode where Mitch goes undercover as a drag queen.

So there I was thinking that the episode with the Mitchstache and the black and white montage was probably the most ridiculous that Baywatch could get since Gilligan's Island, and then...the homoerotic basketball episode. Wait..Garner was a hustler in college? From sex work to basketball, I guess!

The "Shot on Shitteo" movie? Brad had a huge falling out with one of his friends that was co-starring in it and Brad didn't have the necessary "cover your rear end" legal documentation to use the footage with him in it (which was most of it) so he has declared it his own "The Day the Clown Cried," never to see public release.

So that's the story on that movie? drat it. And Brad probably didn't think he'd need the necessary "cover your rear end" legal documentation because Jake was a longtime friend who'd been with him through a lot, before Jake hosed (ahem) it all up.

gently caress YOU JAKE. gently caress YOU! :argh: On top of everything else, we're not getting "Shot on Shitteo" now. gently caress you Jake gently caress you. You dumb piece of poo poo! :mad:

Wow. Thanks, I had no idea that was involved.

It's weird that Brad has had to deal with two experiences of long-term friendships that both dramatically and suddenly come crashing to a halt, both times causing repercussions with his web series.

I don't recall him booting Jerrid off the site having any major repercussions for anything beyond Midnight Screenings, which he very rarely appeared in anyway. Plus, Jerrid was quite open about being a repugnant shithead on every possible level, from what I've seen of him, where as Jake was a duplicitous piece of poo poo who kept his awfulness hidden from everyone.

It's physically hard for me to go back and watch old Midnight Screenings with Jake in them these days. Even the fantastic ones like the Oogieloves ones.

"As a rule, I never touch anything more sophisticated and delicate than myself."
I think that's what has caused me to drop off from following Brad. At one time he was one of my favorite reviewers and he's got a fantastic work ethic. But with Brad, moreso than most others, it's hard to set the personal stuff aside because it just permeates through everything.

I'll admit I find it hard to watch a Snob video that includes one of the people he had a falling-out with. Which is a shame, because I like the Bros sketches. It feels somehow tainted now.



Man, I hope Lloyd never does anything heinous. That'll taint over half the videos. :ohdear:
