poo poo man, I live in Vegas, where some gimmick places get bougie as gently caress (and gimmick food is already bougie), but even I end up at those joints when the stars align. I find that trying to enjoy touring my city more often makes me appreciate it as a home more.

I think there's a lot more, better value gimmicks in Vegas than Guy's, though.

It's a sweepstakes. In the United States any sweepstakes must be "No purchase required" and offer a way to submit an alternate entry. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweepstake

One episode they made some joke about a guy piloting a sock puppet with his dick, and within an hour someone posted pictures of their dick in a sock with a smiley face drawn on and answered complaints by saying they would only take it down if a McElroy asked personally.

The worst ad is any Flophouse ad, especially if they're singing a ~quirky~ song. Forced whimsy gives me the worst second-hand embarrassment.

A close runner-up is the "you're... doing... a... great... job" One Bad Mother ad because it feels like it's ten minutes long.

I did this for TAZ too and yeah I guess the boys can retire now-

quote:

Hey everybody and welcome to another episode of The Adventure Zone!

It's another episode of The Adventure Zone! This time, we take us down to the bottom of the river when some strange creatures are attacking the boat.

The Monsters

The Monster Hunter Association website states, "The Monster Hunter Association has found out that this creature is the very same monster that we have hunted, and we're forced to work together to find them and kill them off."

For some reason, there is a monster out there that has a "stomach" with two heads.

If they can take on one of those headless creatures, then there really is no need to hunt a monster.

For some reason, these monsters just never die, they just take on another form (a very powerful one, at least).

The Solution For Them

The first thing we should do is kill the creature, or at the very least, destroy whatever's on its head.

I would say we need to use a bow or poison arrow, which are both highly effective. You can also use a shield or a torch or anything to make it easier to reach.

To be honest, it doesn't matter how much you can kill it, unless the monster can hit you or kill you with its massive weight.

A Good Idea

If you choose to

I love Beef and Dairy but I can't imagine how hard it must be to write an ad for it. It's got that Firesign Theatre flavor that you're either into or you're not, and I don't think any amount of "no, seriously, were making jokes" is going to change the latter into the former.

Edit: cool apparently I get to champ a third hole in my "compare Beef and Dairy to Firesign Theatre in the McElroy thread" punch card, two more and I get a dollar off a small milkshake

I mean I'm sure there are people who half-listen to the show and don't realize it's comedy, everyone on it has been so drat good at deadpan delivery

also there have been a couple moments where the show has legitimately creeped me out, lol.

e: also while we're on other Max Fun shows, Justin was on Mission to Zyxx this week! The episode will make no sense if you haven't listened to the rest of it though
