Seth is just really mysterious. I always wonder where he works, because most of the time he portrays himself as this super-panicked wreck...

Well, he was in Crossroads, and an episode of McBride opposite John Larroquet Snr. So, there's that.

Episode 39 I think, Jah talks about how he was a very young kid (like 9) dry humping a pillow while watching a women's bodybuilding competition when his parents walked in. He said, "I was just waiting for the guy's competition!" as an excuse and his dad said, "That's worse."

My favourite thing about whenever Jah or Seth bring up Jah's dad is just that small, little outside bit of knowledge about who Jah's dad is. It just makes it funnier to me, for some reason.

Listening to the first couple of episodes, I love how they rapidfire deliver stuff that sounds like an inside joke with a heap of history. The bit in episode 3 where Seth describes how the pedophiles on 'To Catch a Predator' look when they show up and Jah says 'not cool' which they both instantly add on '...or awesome?' and then settle on 'awesome' cracks me the gently caress up.

Up to episode twenty-two of my re-run through of all the episodes, even going to listen to the infamous fight one when I get to it, and I love how angry Seth gets at Jah leaving stupid messages on his answering machine.

That wasn't one of Seth's stories after he went to Pittsburgh That One Time and mentioned the city for the next 4 or 5 shows was it? Because drat.

It's the story about how he was incredibly hosed up once at Sunset Junction and ducked into a McDonalds to clear his head and saw a really old, white pedophile bromancing a young black kid.

Hahaha, I forgot all about the part in the ninety to ninety-five episode range where Seth comes to the reasoning that teachers didn't use to blow kids all the time like they do nowadays because he would have gotten blown.

"I'm blowable, yo!"

That and the teacher who used to compliment him all the time and Jah thinking that she dug him crack me up.

Is Seth vegetarian too? I thought it was just Jonathan.

He's Vegetarian, it's brought up that time they have that disgusting as gently caress wierd-rear end energy drink (I forget the particulars but one of the ingredients is some kind of meat broth as I recall?) and Seth puts it in his mouth to taste it but won't swallow it because he's a vegetarian.

As far as I can remember, Seth's been an unwavering vegetarian for years, but Jonathan's vacillated between vegan (I think?)/vegetarian/spicy chicken sandwich aficionado.

"I've eaten with this rear end in a top hat four times in the last month; he had cheese at every loving meal!"

Biodome posted:

Best Seth food story was when he told us that he never speaks when he goes out to eat at his usual place. He just gestures except for the one time there was a new girl and he got pissed because he had to say something.

Or the story about how he met the girl of his dreams but she was insane and tried to stab him.

"'I'm Vegan.' What's that cheeseball in your mouth? That's like, way wicked more than just cheese, those are, like, triple cheese! 'I'm Vegan. gently caress Doritos, I'd never eat a Dorito.' I've seen you eat Doritos! 'It's an exception, I always give myself an exception. One...or two.'"

Episode 127, one of the best in my book. You go straight from that to their hilarious bit about the last issue of Playgirl.

"I'm gonna get a Snickers Charged, with the Taurine, some Newports, aaaaaaaannnnnd a Playgirl. Hey, do you have matches? Because then I'm gonna light it all on fire."

Which I believe then launches straight into the crazy story about the nuts woman murdering a guy who claimed to be god and then telling everyone to 'deal with it' and heading to McDonalds for some Nuggets.

I'm pretty sure it's a video clip on the 'tube too.

The mental image one part of it conjured of Seth sitting amongst a group of aspiring actors, who are hanging onto Rooney's every word, as Seth glances around; only interested in seeing if anyone else has noticed the size of Rooney's balls is absolutely, utterly hilarious.

It's an early episode, can't remember where exactly but definitely very early on during the run, I want to say in the twenties to thirties. Try looking up that episode range on Weck's Wiki.

Hearing Seth and Jah talk about Summer Heights High is crazy.

Even crazier is the insanely funny supplements that preceded that one; the Dren one and the one that was a bunch of letters to Seth from Stan Tan and co. congratulating him for letting god into his business.

I've been listening back to some of my favorite episodes recently and episode 39 has to be among the best. In particular the part about the male whorehouse featuring Mike Tyson makes me lose it every time.

"Hey, what did you guys do this weekend?"

"We hosed Mike Tyson. By which I mean he made us fight each other. And hosed the winner."

Seth's sheer, utter terror at the concept of having to compete with Mike Tyson for his girlfriend's affections is even funnier.

I always figured it was being it's being either respectful or slightly mocking of Amir. His enthusiasm for sci-fi and fantasy has been mentioned a few times, and how much Seth hates it.

It's specifically brought up the first time he uses it in context with him buying Amir a copy of 'A Game of Thrones' or some poo poo, so yeah, it's pretty clearly that's where it's coming from. I always figured it was just Jah using the phrase that Amir did because Amir knows more about it than he does, but it's still really fun.

So's Seth's utter rage at Amir's genre taste. I think Seth's gone on record as saying that he doesn't get the appeal of science fiction.

The stuff that Pain and Gain is based on started in 1994, so it's probably a bit outside their purview.

EDIT: I would pay billions of dollars to see Seth's facial expression as he watches the footage that Seth's Corner comes from.

Whoa I am listening to that episode right now, it's ep 65 a little after 30 minutes in. The show was Half Hour News Hour, basically Fox News' answer to the daily show. Seth heard the warm up guy was notoriously terrible, so he made a point to see it. What he describes boggles the mind. His routine could be described as the antithesis of comedy

It cracks me up that Seth went to ask his friend what the guy's deal was, then went back to continue watching it.
