hey look,
a post
I heard at E3 this year the new Capcom fighter is going to be about the roster fighting over who gets to be the 4th McElroy Brother.
Oddly none of the actual McElroy Brothers are in it besides Griffin being a costume for Teen Griffin.

who would win if the final pam fought nick griffinbone? nick griffinbone definitely has more godlike unfathomable power, but he's died several times, which makes him much more killable than the immortal and indestructible final pam

final pam would lose the fight, being sucked into orbit around nick griffinbone with all the rest, but would ultimately win the war when griffinbone dies after jumping too high

As detailed my extensive fanfiction, Pam's direct manipulation of console commands makes her more terrifying.

quote:

'i've just made a realisation'

'what's that'

'I can just start turning parts of the game off'

The art of the end of that TtS was beautiful, but that bit at the end of Monster Factory Fallout episode three was pretty amazing.

Everyone talks about how Nick Griffinbone is the most powerful being from Touch the Skyrim but honestly Bone Dogg himself, the original, is not far behind. He broke time and flooded the entire world.

That was four episodes in, we're a mere two episodes into the saga of Nick Griffinbone, and the Boy has become the god of furries and rained hellfire on all Skyrim, twice

I was rewatching the second ep of the TV show, now that I've bought them on iTunes, and it's still just so good. Safety Town remains the best.

Has anyone tried out the commentary track on top of the first episode? Must-listen status? I kind of hope they do more.

Watched it synced up when it came out. It was pretty funny and also very interesting to hear about the behind the scenes stuff of them actually making a show, like how the only script they were working from just sort of said "say some funny things" like how Star Trek would have "technobabble" as a placeholder for actual dialogue.

All the podcast ads are awful, even good shows like Sawbones or Taz sounds very bad and slash or obnoxious if you only listen to the ads. John Hodgecourt is the only one that actually sounds like something I would want to listen to. Throwing Shade is by far the worst and sometimes kills the good energy that an Extreme Restraints moneyzone adds to MBMBAM.

International Waters has the best ads. They're short, explains what it's all about and the theme song is catchy. The show itself wasn't my cup of tea, but it's the only time a maxfun ad convinced me to listen to another podcast.

I tried two episodes of hodgeman. He really tries to put the spotlight on his guests which is cool, but the quality of the episode relies on how funny the guests are. I can't bring myself to put on more episodes because I have no idea if that episode will be worth listening to.

He is IRL friends with the band and has used them as the cultural reference so often that a guest said she spent a week studying their lyrics prior to being on the show.

Try the docket clearing episodes, they're guest-free and always good. The guest based ones are sooooooo hit n' miss.
