Bjorn Posted May 23, 2014 I suddenly really want to eat a meatball grinder something fierce. Loved the cast, always a treat to have Danielle on. I think what I like most about her being around is bringing up games or perspectives that wouldn't normally be on the 'cast. Side note about found porn as a teenager, I worked at a gas station that had semi-pumps when in high school. I had a rather lucrative side business selling porn mags to my classmates. Several of our regular trucker customers would just toss their old mags when they bought new ones (trucks not having a ton of storage and all). I'd gather those up and then peddle them to other teens desperate for porn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stuart Posted May 23, 2014 Jesus Christ, the fucking Noah's Ark game part was fucking destroying me. Thanks for that. Also, belated podblast nitpick: It's pronounced "kah-kah-wah-tess", Sean! Your Spanish on that episode had me go over it millions of times to understand what you were saying, and Spanish is my second language! Seriously, that was some Gringo-ass Spanish right there. And it's pronounced "dool-say", not "doll-che"! This ain't Italian, yo. But hey, you did say "miel" correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dosed Posted May 23, 2014 My phone ate my original response so here's a second one with 100% more flavour and additives. Firstly I'd like to echo everyone's opinion that Danielle is awesome and should be on the podcast forever more. It's nice to hear views from the journalism side of things on the cast again, and even more importantly it's nice to hear a woman's view on my favourite hobby. It's one of the main reasons I listen to The Indoor Kids, simply to hear a female talk about it. That and it's a funny show. In terms of the whole "Sean's advice" thing I think it's a pretty reasonable thing to do. I still kind of struggle with a similar issue with a bunch of friends I went to school with. I moved away to university and occasionally Skype them to play Hearthstone and the like, or I'll see them when I go back home. However, they frequently use the word "faggot" to vent frustration or express anger. It really bugs me as my brother is gay, and they all know that too, and I've expressed that they could at least prevent themselves from using it when I'm in their company. I used to use the word in the exact same way when I was a little, ignorant, angry, arrogant arsehole of a teenager, but I've definitely become more aware of my language and the effect of language in general. I also kind of feel like I'm letting my brother down if I don't make some sort of deal about it. It's weird, I feel like I'd often go to bat for him if we were out drinking and it came to someone verbally, or physically, assaulting him (not that he'd need me to because he's way bigger than I am), but then I consider the whole situation with my friends and realise I'm actually pretty impotent when it comes to those kind of situations.

SuperBiasedMan Posted May 23, 2014 Regarding Sean deleting rare/valuable TF2 items for charity, it's actually been done at least once in the past: http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=4151 If he has any intention of creating the event, maybe he could set up a donation drive where people donate either to order or chaos. Donates to order mean that the hats will be preserved and distributed to the community... donations to chaos will cause hats to be burned and everyone must watch as it happens. Also thank you Secret Asian Man, you saved me the effort of correcting the TF2 stuff. I'm up for Danielle being a more recurring guest, we all need more animal puns in our lives.

Gormongous Posted May 23, 2014 I'm up for Danielle being a more recurring guest, we all need more animal puns in our lives. I love Danielle's fixation on animals. Near the end, when all the Thumbs are making poop jokes, she shouts out, "Poop like a piggy!" Poop is only an excuse to talk about pigs more. Obviously Super Noah's Ark 3D was the perfect game for them to end on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stuart Posted May 23, 2014 Chris, just accept it. This ain't no passing craze. We all know you are a sensitive soul, though you seem thick skinned. Yeah, accept the puns, that's my problem-free philosophy. I mean, after reading these puns, I've got no worries for the rest of my day! Stop hogging the fun away!

SuperBiasedMan Posted May 23, 2014 I joined these forums because I hoped it would be an extention of the tone the podcast itself has. This thread has proven me to be entirely correct.

SecretAsianMan Posted May 24, 2014 I just read the last 2 pages of this thread. I've never cringed so hard in my life. All this animal talk has made me realize how fixated Idle Thumbs is with animals. Horsebags, bird noises, puffins. I'm sure there's more. Also I suggest Jake's pig noise be the new baboo.
