Playing Either Or, Discussing Big Hero 6 and Comics

Hey, this is Steve Bloom, and you are listening

to the Geekcast Radio Network. You are now on

the inside of what I like to call the Circle

of Trust. We are all connected in a great circle

of life. You know something Bert? I think you

and I are going in circles. It feels like we're

going in circles. The circuit is now complete.

When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I

am the master. Because it's a circle. Yeah, we

heard about the circle. Yes, we're familiar with

shapes. Hi, this is Chuck. This is Greg. And

this is Dan, and we are... Talking in circles

brought to you by the geek cast radio network

the podcast is appreciating that you chose us

Rather than another podcast because we know there's

a lot of choices out there And we will actually

be having our own Choices to choose from in our

second segment when we play a brand new game

And we'll get to that in just a moment, but before

we get to all the fun. How's the week been going

for you guys? That's you bad actually I was able

to take advantage of some recent DVD sales. There's

a store near me in a mall that's actually going

out of business to FYE store. And they're having

some huge inventory sales to try to clear out

some of their stuff. So I was able to get some

pretty cool movies for like 40 percent off. Plus,

they sell used ones. So used ones are already

cheap and it was like 40 percent off of them.

So I ended up getting like some Old Stallone

movies and a couple of diehard movies for like

two dollars and stuff nice, but which diehards

cuz that's the question cuz there's a well I

Had I had already had the original diehard and

diehard with a vengeance So I got number two

just to fill in that gap. Yeah Understandable

it's understandable. Yeah, you know and then

I got the latest one a good day to diehard Have

you seen that one yet? No, you might return it

Even if the store is closed, Chuck will show

up, knocking on the door. Let me in, I don't

want this moving. I heard it was better than

the Live Free or Die Hard, so I don't know, we'll

see. Yeah, I guess it depends. I would say it's

probably more die -hardish than the Live Free,

Die Hard. I kind of have a soft spot for Live

Free or Die Hard. I know other people don't like

it, but I enjoy it. Greg, how's things going

with you? Fine boring. I don't know. I don't

do much guys But I'm gonna keep that i'm gonna

kind of get quiet for this next part because

I don't want to reveal it to my parents So I

don't want to say it too loud. I'm thinking about

you're pregnant. Yes, i'm pregnant uh I am here.

I am pregnant with uh, uh a pork butt aka pork

shoulder that I cooked from this weekend Uh,

no, i'm i'm thinking of getting a tattoo you

guys Wow Yeah of what? of just It's it's just

like kind of a little bit of a modified but very

recognizable x -men symbol, but I'm not gonna

get it I'm gonna get it like underneath my arm

kind of like Little bit above my armpit on my

arm Interesting. So so the x -men X or is it

like a different symbol? It's it's an x -men

X. Yeah nice I can I can never get a tattoo.

I just changed my mind about things too often.

I'd be like halfway through it'd be like, you

know what? No, I'm good Oh, wait, you can't you

can't go back can't you can't you know, he just

erased it. I'd like it down a little farther

Like I'll go over to the removable place and

get it lasered off and come back in a couple

hours. Or maybe if he starts doing the circle,

you have him change it five times, it ends up

looking like the Olympic rings. But there's supposedly,

we were supposed to do something today called

Today I Learned, but we changed that. But today

I learned that there's actually a cream that

has you have to go through FDA approval, but

there's like a cream that supposedly does a pretty

good job of removing tattoos now. Yes, it's called

acid It's called white paint and it just goes

over yeah, that was bad I apologize. I'm just

waiting till we get like digital tattoos, you

know, like like somehow that that'll be a thing

soon I'm sure where it kind of highlights your

skin from underneath where you just get like

a little Tablet thing implanted underneath your

skin Exactly exactly your iPhone in your shoulder

or your arm or you know the after you do like

the I I walk or the Apple watch What else is

there left? You got to like get like a palm?

Literally like turn your palm into like a phone

or something trademark Chuck Dan and Greg. Yes,

exactly. So my wife's been kind of Busy, but

like uneventfully busy with the baby and everything

and actually for a letter today. I will I have

kind of a Jesus. For our letter today, I have

something in reference to that. Jesus for the

letter? I do. We have a special guest. Hey, Zeus.

But my wife hasn't been able to do a lot of things

she normally does, which is what we do, or we

do together, which tends to be grocery shopping.

So I've been kind of doing that solo. And the

other day, I went to Giant near in our neighborhood.

And when we do grocery shopping, we use something,

you scan it, which is kind of like when you do

the register the wedding registry you go around

and you scan items and you put it in your bag

so when you get up to the cashier everything's

bagged already you just scan it and pay we i

get up to the the register which is the self

-serve one so there's no one else there and it's

supposed to work where you scan it and your order

company put your number in for whatever your

like key card is and then you get your order

comes up and you pay And so I do that. I scan

it, put my number in. It's like, oh, it does

not recognize it. I'm like, OK, weird. And I

do it again. It does not recognize it. Do it

again. It does not recognize it. Then I realize

I'm putting the number in the wrong location.

I'm putting it in the lookup item ID number for

if I'm looking up fruit. So I'm like, oh, I'm

screwing that up. So I go put it in the right

place. The scan again says does not recognize

my number and I'm looking at my scan thing that

has my number on it And it's like that's the

right number so I keep doing it over and over

again Literally, I was probably there for like

seven minutes. It's not working So I give up

going to the next aisle next to it, which is

again self -serve and I scan it It works and

I'm trying to do it cuz I'm like frustrated at

this point But then as I'm trying to go through

everything I hit the Spanish button And so every

command now is in Spanish everything she's saying

is in Spanish all the words are in Spanish And

I'm like crap it wasn't hard enough you had to

up the difficulty level to hardest Exactly, and

the thing is it accepted my number now, so my

orders I could see my order But I don't know

how to pay because it's like you know we hit

the button to pay I don't know I was looking

for something like that. I'm like I don't I think

I'm thinking this one is it and it didn't do

it. I'm like I'm like Crap, so i'm like stuck

and it's talking really loudly in spanish. I

don't want it saying and i'm like, you know People

are like kind of looking at me weird. I'm like,

I don't we just try to america here americanese

here in in america It's like he's the weirdest

looking Mexican guy I've ever seen in my life

But it wasn't it was it was just crazy and when

it's I couldn't like I kept trying to turn the

sound off and I turned it off and Be gone for

a second, but then they come back on even louder.

I'm like, I feel like this is a game show I'm

on and I'm losing so it eventually got I got

it taken care of but it was just like The most

frustrating thing. I'm like, I just wanna this

is why we do this together and she handles this

part I can't even do grocery shopping, but it

was you know, it was kind of crazy But but yeah,

that's pretty much it. That's my week. It's been

a lot of that diaper changing feeding going to

work so Which is rather uneventful. So it's good

when I come down you could change my diaper then

yeah No, no That's that's mental image is never

never getting out of my head But luckily though

the kind of one thing I have been doing because

of a lot of late -night feedings I've been reading

a lot of comics while you know, I'm waiting for

him to fall asleep and I I want to say I heard

about this comic and I finally ended up getting

it and I'm really glad I did I don't have you

guys heard of the fadeout at all by any chance

I have seen it in comic book stores. The cover

is very intriguing I know it's by Ed Brubaker

and he usually does some pretty good stuff, but

I have not picked it up Yeah, you're right it

is Image book, of course, because I do like everything

now. And it's by Ed Brubaker and drawn by Sean

Phillips, who apparently have done a lot. I feel

like I'm really ignorant because they've done

a lot together and I've never read any of their

stuff together. But this is kind of like the

perfect swarm of comic books for me. It has like

a little bit of everything I love, starting with

Ed Brubaker, who wrote one of my all time favorite

arcs when he was on Captain America. It's a noir

crime story, which is, again, one of my favorite

genres, taking place right after World War one

so like right in the late 40s or early 50s and

it's taking place in like old classic Hollywood

it's taking all this all during Los Angeles or

starts all in Los Angeles involving the Hollywood

system which is something I have a lot of interest

in so there's like all these little pieces of

things I like so starting off I say this book

has a lot going for it for me in the art and

I'm glad to say it ended up falling through and

it made me really happy to read another uh fantastic

edward break your story and the kind of like

the setup of it unlike hit which we you know

we talked with brice carlson uh a few months

ago which was again a noir story that takes place

in los angeles that's very much like a crime

action cop drama book and this in in the fade

out it's very much it's drama heavy there's not

much action it's drama mystery it's not kind

of like that it's not like you know gangster

squad it's more like the the The big sleep or

something like that. That's not really you're

not getting shootouts. You're not getting car

chases It's pretty much mystery and drama that

are the focal point, but it's post -war war two

American prosperity is on the brink of happening

like the American dream is really becoming its

own thing But you also have the red scare and

this is picking up not long after good number

of Hollywood members were Blacklisted due to

possible connections to communism. So a lot of

like Writers art directors actors actresses were

basically, you know kicked out of Hollywood Because

of the fear of the Red Scare and thinking that

they had connections to some Russia and other

communist parties But what's kind of intriguing

too about this time is like if you go back to

the 50s during that time in Hollywood There is

really there is this idea that the Hollywood

at the time was very, you know morally Pure in

a lot of ways like people like Bob Hope Clark

Gable these guys who like you know, like the

typical You know good old -fashioned American

man, but in a lot of ways There's a lot of corruption

and a lot of you know, drug drug sex alcohol

lot of numbers were done What was that rock and

roll? a lot of rock and roll probably a lot of

the stuff going on and a lot of the seedy underbelly

and this is kind of what the fade -out gets into

it opens up with possible murder slash suicide

of an up -and -coming actress you really don't

know which which it's going to be in our the

main character is this guy charlie parish who

is a screenwriter who is you know a meekish man

like he's self -deprecating is kind of in himself

full of secrets as well and he kind of gets involved

in this murder slash possible suicide and what's

interesting about his character he's not really

a hero he's not really out to like save out for

justice he's kind of just in a way just trying

to save himself and that's kind of the case with

all these characters and that's the best thing

about the book it has an endless amount of really

multi -layered complicated characters and oddly

enough the thing that kind of came to mind reading

this was Game of Thrones In that where there's

not a lot of straight Hill heroes or villains

just people who are in a really kind of more

really corrupt system trying to get by and try

to like Basically make it work and that's kind

of what this is like I would almost kind of recommend

it for people who aren't in the comics but are

really into movies like if you're someone who

has never really read a comic before like the

Phaedon is actually a good thing to kind of pick

up because it's not like your typical comic it's

very drama heavy but in very mostly character

driven and you're not in i was kind of intrigued

the entire time though it's it's brilliantly

written these characters are developed well its

mystery is uh complicated but not not convoluted

and it just kept my interest throughout i've

read the first volume which is about four four

uh issues this There's fifth and sixth issue

the fifth and sixth issue are also out. I have

not read those yet I have picked them up though

and looking forward to pick it up But I would

highly recommend it's one of the one of the better

things I read in a while I'll preface by saying

it's probably not for everyone if you're more

in the superheroes and that type of comic more

You know your action -packed high -paced type

of stuff This may not be for you. But if you

like the first issue, you'll you'll it only gets

better from there. So But yeah, I don't know

if you guys have any interest in that at all

or Sounds pretty cool. I know I did enjoy the

hit comics that we read from boom studio. I enjoyed

them great deal This you said was like somewhat

similar in a way. It's similar time period I

would say style lies and like tone and actually

execution is a lot different. Okay. It's yeah

it take something like Gangster squad and like

LA confidential and like how they're kind of

different. I would say it's more like that and

it's more I'm thinking of I don't know if you

ever saw a movie called Hollywood land it reminds

me of that movie kind of methodically paced I

would say but but in a good way so that could

that could turn some heads but I would say let

you borrow it but I bought it digitally so the

bad thing about I could lend you my iPad maybe

that's all right no but that sounds uh sounds

pretty cool though especially for people that

are into movies and stuff maybe I could recommend

it some of the people that I talk to Trying to

get them into comics, get their foot in the door.

Exactly. I think it's a good, what do they call

it? A gateway drug to comics. Exactly. It's a

good gateway drug in the comics. It'll get you

sucked in. Chuck, I know you talked about that

you bought a lot of movies. Did you get to watch

any of the ones that you ended up purchasing

or did you just buy? Well, I just ended up buying

them like last night. I didn't get to watch them,

but I watched some other stuff. One thing that

I wanted to talk about was a movie that I'm pretty

sure Greg saw. I'm not sure if you saw it, Dan,

but that's Big Hero 6. Yes, I did see Big Hero

6. I brought it from a coworker he recommended

to me that I would enjoy it. And obviously Marvel's

first animated movie that was theatrically released,

but although they don't really market it that

way, and it's certainly not part of the MCU,

which is... Kind of a good thing though And it's

interesting too because like the actual comic

is nothing like the the movie and apparently

there are some bad blood between Disney animation

and Marvel when it came to it, so I think that

one a lot long ways of why Why it didn't really

get the Promotion from Marvel as other yeah.

Yeah, they didn't put their their special Midas

touch on the marketing aspect of it, but It was

still I thought a great movie. It was really,

really cool little movie. I was extremely skeptical

at first thinking, you know, this is like a corny

kids movie that I'm really not going to be able

to connect with. You know, I never really watched

a whole lot of animated animated movies at all.

Like there's actually like a ton of famous animated

movies that I've never seen, like never seen

Toy Story. Oh my god, I started again. I've never

seen cars and all those other ones. You can miss

that one. But I was actually pretty surprised.

I enjoyed this quite a bit. And for some reason,

the story just pulled me in right from the beginning.

And despite the cheesy, heartwarming aspect of

the boy becoming emotionally attached to a robot,

it held my attention rather well. animation was

great of course like it usually is with their

stuff but uh the voice acting was fantastic uh

the villain was cool i liked him i liked the

team aspect uh how they all work together sort

of a good i guess a good example for kids in

that way but um i was really impressed with how

like how they had a lot of original ideas in

this like for some of the like technology -based

powers for all the people on the team like they

had some really cool ideas for that stuff and

Like the girl with the magnetic discs and stuff

that goes on the bicycle and everything like

they took things that they used in their experiments

in their lab and stuff and they made like Suits

out of them and gave themselves powers. I thought

that was really like original idea was pretty

cool But um, yeah, I enjoyed it a lot. I don't

know what else to say about it, but Yeah, Beta

Max is quite the cool character. Yeah, he was

quite funny And I like the little trick that

they did of when he was like low on battery kind

of sounded like he was drunk. Yeah Apparently

I read something that like The one of the creators

involved with the movie said like this takes

place in like an alternate future within like

San Francisco where A lot of Japanese -Americans

settled in San Francisco and they renamed the

city San Fransokyo according to this guy. There's

a lot of American -Japanese architecture mixed

together and a lot of buildings and everything

like that. All their buildings are earthquake

-proof for lack of a better term, but stuff I

didn't really pick up on watching the movie,

but I read that about it afterwards. It was pretty

fascinating. I do think it's funny that they

said alternate future as in like not the actual

future because We know what that's gonna be.

This is the ultimate. Yeah Yeah, we can't you

know invent a white plump robot that wears armor

Yeah, I agree I would definitely recommend recommend

victory. Oh six is a good fun I also have a lot

of the pops from that movie That surprises me

I don't have the Baymax ones, which I'm kind

of sad about Really of all the ones I have hero.

I have Freddie. I have wasabi I have lemongrass

and I've got a go -go, but I don't have Baymax

Bucking the trend. Well, these ones were on sale.

I got them for extra cheap Give it some time

sometime. I'm sure like once like the Baymax

crazy kind of dissipates i'm sure there'll be

a lot of it'll be like when there's like tons

of parts in some dolls like four years after

that's stopping a thing and you can get them

at the dollar store or they're on the moon if

you go based off Futurama yeah the giant garbage

pile in the moon all righty but greg i know uh

you also were reading a comic if i'm not no not

a comic it was an actual book yeah again with

the books we got a comic we got a uh movie and

then greg trying to throw the intellectual card

at us once again with a book is this one you

actually would recommend or is it one that you

didn't like like last um it was it was actually

uh pretty decent it wasn't as as good as i thought

it was going to be i got it for a daily deal

so it was good for the the price that i got it

for i'm not sure if i would really recommend

it to our listeners It was I thought it was gonna

be more Harry Potter esque with being a paper

magician And we kind of go in following this

girl. I don't know how the hell to say her name.

It's like co n Why or something's Yoni or something?

Connie I don't know why Well, no, it's not like

co n and ie or just the y at the end. It's like

ceo So it's it's it's it's only it's Frank. It's

Frank. Okay, we'll go Frank. So we follow this

young girl Frank and She is has been learning

magic through this Magical school and she's really

smart and brilliant And she could choose between

all these different types of magic. There's like

paper magic metal metalwork magic glass magic

So it's anything that's kind of made by man.

There's a magical system behind it. Usually they

get to choose, but she doesn't get to choose

because there's not enough people practicing

paper magic. So unfortunately for her, she gets

stuck with paper magic. She throws a big fit

because she wanted to play with metal magic.

But she's under an apprenticeship to this gentleman

who does paper magic. and so they kind of show

her developing with him and she kind of starts

to like it like she shows her how to take a story

and kind of project it with her mind by reading

it with an inflection because it's written on

paper and it kind of does like a little visual

of it out in the open for everybody to see and

folding it and stuff because they're called folders

would they play with the paper and you could

do different stuff like make little birds origami

birds fly and everything so he's teaching her

that and she's becoming more and more impressed

with him and you could tell that right off the

bat that she's she's kind of fallen for this

guy but then all of a sudden there's like an

attack at his house and a girl comes in and rips

out his heart and goes away with it and so this

girl it's it's both um it's it's completely obvious

and later on the apprentice kind of has to get

like is stuck in his heart uh sort of and so

she's like discovering him and his heart and

so she's falling in love with them kind of thing

it was very noticeable metaphors throughout and

it didn't deal super a lot with the magic but

more This more of this metaphor than anything

of her falling in love and I found that kind

of weird Like why do we always have to have somebody

following like a young? Female student falling

in love with their professor or something. It

seems like a big trope nowadays that I feel like

we can really Do without at this point probably

because a lot of writers are also professors.

So they're like Yeah falls in love with this

professor But there was one good thing that I

liked about it was the fact that it was the woman

saving the man instead of the trope that we usually

get of the prince or king saving a princess or

something like that so i thought that was that

aspect of it was kind of cool and i did find

the the magic interesting but i just wish they

kind of went into it a little bit more and played

around with that more and had more magical things

like he had uh the professor dude had um a servant

and it was a giant paper skeleton that served

him and everything and he made this little dog

out of paper for and he goes around and he acts

like an actual dog. And so I thought that was

a lot of fun and there was a nice little relationship

between the little dog and her and she kind of

falling in love with him with the dog and falling

in love with paper. There's a lot of love going

on except for this professor's ex -wife coming

in and stealing his heart back and whatever.

It was thick on the metaphor though. Would you

say that the plot was paper thin? A little bit,

yeah. It was a heavy poundage paper, though.

Good. How many Dunder Mifflin references were

there? None. Zero. Because it took place in the

early 1900s. I mean, Dunder Mifflin's been around,

I guess maybe, I don't know. Gotta research that

when I go to dundermifflin .com. Dwight may have

known these people. Oh, man. I'm sure if they

make it into movie, it will be starring Wayne

Wilson because he's got his other show is probably

gonna get cancelled. So why not? But yeah, so

anything else before we take a quick break? Negative.

Oh, there was something I was gonna talk about.

Oh, we did on Memorial Day. Actually, I got mail,

which she think is odd, but it was a very good

mail. We have got our tickets for Baltimore Comic

Con. Oh, yay. Wow, that was fast. You're right.

Wow. Nice. I don't know why there was a two -day

rush on it, but we got them. So we'll be back

and better into that again. That's exciting.

I'm looking forward to Baltimore Comic -Con.

So that's it. Me as well. Oh, yes. The creator

Comic -Con. It is. It is. Which is great because

last time we went, we ended up... Leading to

a few interviews for a podcast. Hopefully we

can do that more I haven't checked the guest

list but uh, I know brice colson said he didn't

think he'd be there this year unfortunately,

but you know We can we can meet new people. It's

possible. All right meeting new people is hard

dan Yeah, especially especially at a comic convention

because a lot of those people have no social

skills whatsoever And they smell hey as long

as yeah as long as they smell good. I'd be up

for meeting anybody Just keep the little like

uh Stinky seventh graders away from me. Plus

it's like everyone has a podcast. So it's kind

of weird to like Everyone's going up. Can you

a bumper for me in my podcast? So it's like I

don't want to be that guy but then I am Yeah,

it's like nowadays. It's like I have a podcast

like so Like five years ago mom stop telling

me I don't care Alright, so we're gonna take

a quick break and when we come back We are gonna

be doing a brand new game, which is kind of very

much like an old game, but it's new name I guess

it's a reboot of an old game. We'll find out.

I don't know what I'm talking about anymore We're

just gonna take a quick break and we'll be back

in one short bit. So we'll see you It's Showtime

synergy the latest review podcast from the geek

cast radio network is here So join TFG one Mike

Nicole hailstorm and myself lady rec as we will

be reviewing all 65 episodes of John the holograms

in a 25 episode long podcast You can find Showtime

synergy on iTunes and geek cast radio comm we

are the truly outrageous podcast that you want

to be listening to Welcome back today. We're

gonna play a game called either or and as I was

creating this game and doing it I kind of realized

it's basically just rehash of would you rather

a little bit differently, but it doesn't matter

It's gonna be called either or and we're gonna

lick it and you're gonna you're gonna listen

to it It's gonna be good time. I'm not turning

the car around now. We get we're already going

it's happening but the basic premise of it is

I will be saying a statement like would you Would

you either have a hot dog or a hamburger and

something as generic as that but a little bit

more fun? Hamburger. Yeah, I'd go hamburger too.

I don't care for hot dogs. If you're gonna give

me a hot dog, give me like a brat or something,

not just a hot dog. It's just kind of, I'd rather

a hamburger. It's more filling, get juicier,

I like a beef flavor. And if I'm gonna have it,

I'm gonna have it from Five Guys if I'm around

here. Or if I'm on the West Coast, Ho Dads. I

mean, I think though like like the perfect place

for a hot dog if you had a ball game I mean,

it just feels right. Well, I'm I'm out because

I don't watch much baseball. I'd fall asleep

The first question Welcome to hamburger hot dog

podcast So speaking of that, why do we get started

with the first one and I thought I would start

with one that's kind of be interesting because

we were talking about comics a little while ago

and I always had this question in mind and I

was curious to hear what you guys had to say.

Would you either read a comic that had a good

story and bad art or a comic with a bad story

and good art? Chuck is first. Go ahead Chuck.

Oh I'm first? Yeah because I don't feel like

going first because I don't know how to answer

that. It's tough, but I think I would I would

rather Yeah, there we go again saying that It's

tough, but I think I would choose to Read a good

story with bad art Which me which probably surprises

Greg because he knows I'm picky about my art.

Oh, I think we're all picky about our art though

Yeah, but I've like I've read a story with good

art and a you know, bad story, which I think

was the Avengers Assemble story by Bendis. Of

course it's by Bendis. The art was great. I even

forget who the artist was right now, which is

terrible, but the story was like so simplistic.

It felt like it was like a fourth grade reading

level or something. It was just a total turnoff

because I'm like, well, I could just go look

at a poster. You know, like, I mean, at least

with Some something with a good story or like

captivated all the way through and you can kind

of overlook the art a little bit because you're

so like entranced in the story What about you

Greg? I guess I'm gonna agree with Chuck is you

get you're never gonna get to too bad of an art

But story could definitely be boring or definitely

but the arts never too bad at least they can

at least portray the story through the artwork

a little bit better I'm just rambling now. I'm

sorry. Chuck convinced me with the whole Bendis

thing. You need a good story, because even Francis

Wendell U did not make Secret Invasion any better

for me. It just left me totally depressed, even

though I love Wendell U's artwork. I know you

don't, Chuck, but I think his artwork is amazing.

And so, yeah, it definitely needs the story there.

Yeah, it's tough because the one thing that actually

came in mind reading this with this question

was It's kind of a random connection, but it

was the blade reboot series I came out and not

reboot but it was series came out like I'd say

like 2009 ish and Like you had like some really

good stories to it But the art was just awful

like all the faces looked exactly the same and

I can't think of the artist on top of my head

now John Romita jr. No, it wasn't Thanks for

a laugh Chuck You're one of the few that understands

my utter disdain for that man's artwork. Yeah,

because I used to like his artwork, then you

told me that, and I looked at it, and after a

time I'm like, yeah, it's just not doing anything

for me anymore. And Chuck is right, all of his

faces look the same. They all have this weird,

blocky, like, weird stubby nose situation going

on. There's certain stories by him I think are

really... That I really think it's artworks.

Well, like Wolverine state of the Union or is

it? State of the enemy of the state enemy the

state which I thought Yes, exactly. I'm part

of that might be because Wolverine has a mask

on the entire time That is a good that is a good

story though. I did enjoy that story though Yeah,

so I I don't know like I've read good stories

with really bad art and really hard to get through

since comics are really good visual medium as

a compound is a It is I think it does sometimes

depend on the artist like I think it's someone

like of um, I mean guy who did marbles and oh

alex ross like someone like alex ross His art

is just so picture -ex to look at and you almost

don't need anything to follow it You don't need

a story. It says a lot in itself and there's

you know, some of those comics that are done

that uh You know, they do it. It's kind of a

gimmick, but they've done them without any words.

It's only pictures So it's possible those are

hit or miss. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. That's very

true. Some of them are really bad and but I Agree,

I guess it depends like to me if it's one issue.

I'd probably go with good art a bad story, but

if I'm reading a lot, I'd rather have the good

story. Speaking of someone who read X -Force

in the 90s with Rob Liefeld, you know, I can

kind of forgive art if, I don't know, you know,

if I enjoy the characters enough. Though reading

the X -Force comics now, if I went back and like

read a few, I don't know why I liked them so

much as a kid. Just because they had guns maybe?

I don't know. I think it was the whole cable

situation. Yeah. You must have been a fan of

like having 19 pouches on your belt and stuff.

I do like cargo shorts, so I don't know if that

played a part in it. I do too. I totally get

that. Yeah. My wife hates when I wear cargo shorts.

She's like, you look ridiculous. You put a lot

of stuff in your pockets. I'm like exactly. That's

the point of cargo shorts. It's the best invention

ever. Put stuff in your pockets. It's great because

I hate stuff on my side pockets, but with I mean

with my like front pockets, but the side anyways.

Cargo short tangent did not expect that to happen

today Okay, so this next one is a little bit

different it's a choice between either Only being

able to watch your favorite movie meaning that

if you're gonna watch a movie it has to be your

favorite movie no matter what so you can never

watch a new movie ever again or Never being able

to watch your favorite movie ever again, so you

can watch new movies, but you can never watch

your favorite movie so I don't know if that made

sense at all. Yeah it did. To us it did at least.

Greg which one would you choose? Would you rather

only watch your favorite movie for the rest of

time or never being able to watch your favorite

movie forever? I collect a lot of movies here.

I've kind of stopped lately with Netflix because

I keep just binge watching new stuff and new

stuff and new stuff and every once in a while

I'll go back I go to Fifth Element a lot. I've

gone back to Pacific Rim already. I've gone to

Guardians already. I've done Big Hero 6. I've

repeated a bunch of stuff over again, so this

is a tough one for me. I think I could always

go new stuff, because you need that little bit.

of Discovery for the first time that kind of

like back in the day Star Wars feel when you've

watched it for the first time Like you to not

ever get that again. I feel like would take a

good thing out of out of life You know what I

mean? Definitely, so I would definitely go with

new stuff and not go back to the old stuff because

at least I could have that in my memory if I

can't Because I've pretty much got a lot of fifth

element down in my head, but I still love going

back to that one. I'm guessing there's certain

parts of fifth element you really have in your

head. Yeah. What about you, Charlie? I don't

want one position. I want all positions. I think

I would rather never see my favorite movie again.

I don't actually know what my favorite movie

is but I have a good idea of like I know we did

our top five list way back when and obviously

like the ones that are already always there for

me like Top Gun, Rocky IV, Avengers, Tombstone

all those kind of I've seen them so much like

I kind of know them by heart anyway and you know

like Craig said you need that uh That new sense

of wonder every time you watch something and

you know You're gonna see things that remind

you of your favorite movies and kind of remind

you of why you like certain movies and why you

don't so that's I guess sort of a a journey of

Self -discovery if you will that you can go on

with new movies. That sounds really corny, but

that's my answer It's a corny question with a

corny answer. It's fine But yeah, I'm the same

way because I honestly I very rarely rewatch

movies. It doesn't Like sometimes maybe which

is weird because you have so many you could open

up you can restart blockbuster again by yourself

I know which is why i've kind of gone to the

come to the google museum i've kind of stopped

collecting them because i'm like I don't really

Watch them that much and i've been moving more

towards digital like even streaming or just buying

them digitally because it's easier to access

so Yeah, and with there there's so much out there

now and i'd rather I guess like I feel weird

like watching something again when I'm like there's

so much stuff good stuff I have not yet I have

yet to see so usually if are we watching something

it's because like hey the Avengers is coming

out so I'm gonna watch all the Marvel's movies

or something like that or I want to show someone

a movie I really like but and then have them

not pay attention and to say they don't like

it my wife and be like well of course you didn't

like it because you're watching your phone the

entire time it's sort of subject with me but

whatever you know But yeah, so I I'll make it

through for the I'd rather be able to never watch

my favorite movie again Which I know what it

is. It's networked though. It's changed over

the years as well Perdemic By the way, we need

to watch the room for this year when we go to

Baltimore con when we're down at your place to

definitely definitely All right. Next one's kind

of hard. This one's hard to choose from and it's

probably a fear of a lot of us but if you had

the choice between either Going throughout your

day knowing you forgot to wear deodorant or going

throughout your day knowing you forgot to brush

your teeth. Which one would you choose? I feel

like I could, it would be easier. to mask the

smell of your breath than it is to mask the smell

of your B .O. There's like no containing the

B .O. But if you if you don't brush your teeth,

at least you can keep your mouth closed the whole

day or you can eat something that maybe will

make it change it up or you can have gum or something.

But once you have that whole deodorant mess like.

You're screwed. You're gonna smell like Bo and

I don't want to be the prototypical comic book

nerd at the convention So you go with not brushing

your teeth what about you Chuck? I would go the

same. I think I could always just not talk to

anyone all day And just be like oh my tooth hurts,

you know or something. Yeah, but I've done the

deodorant thing by accident like not many but

not many times but Once or twice it's happened

and it's like scares the shit out of me. I Am

very paranoid about like a I don't move all day

cuz I'm like That's why I keep an extra deodorant

at my desk at all times just in case smart I

I keep one in my in my truck at all times, too

I did that once but then during the summer it

melted and that was a mistake. So it got yeah

My car kind of smell nice for a little bit, but

yeah, yeah, but i'd actually i'm gonna go different

with you guys i'm gonna go with uh i'd rather

go with the up degree owner and and brush my

teeth I guess because If I go without brushing

my teeth, my mouth just feels weird for the entire

day. And I feel like even if like I chew gum

or get a mint, it's still like I have really

bad breath and I spend a lot of my day talking

to people. Like if there's B .O. and there's

a group of people, you can kind of like sometimes

it's hard to tell the person. But if you know

exactly who has bad breath, if you're talking,

it's like immediately you can when they open

their mouth. So. It especially someone who's

like coffee breath or smoke breath, you know,

it's just like oh Yeah, coffee breath is bad.

Yeah, it takes it takes you back for a little

bit But you made me think of the the dvd place

that I mentioned earlier in the episode that

I was at Yeah, there was a guy in there And i'm

telling you I was at least eight feet away from

him. I was totally looking at something else

This guy stunk so bad a swamp ass Like it was

he was like man thing and just terrible swamp

ass smell. Oh my gosh I had to move I had to

walk away to the side of the store And then I

was like looking over my shoulder of him, like,

where is he? Where is he? He's coming closer,

like, I gotta stay away. If you want someone

to walk by you and think that's you, it's like,

no, it's not me. Exactly. It's like... Yeah,

you're like next to the guy, like a pretty girl

walks by, you're like, no, really, it's not,

I swear. I swear, Vanessa, it's not mine. But

I also have a story, but on the opposite end

of Bad Breath, when I used to work at the grocery

store, I got in trouble with one of my supervisors

and she pulled me into this like little training

room that we have, which isn't very big. It's

like enough to fit a computer in and everything.

And she got right in my face and started screaming.

my eyes immediately started to swell up with

tears. It may have looked like I was crying because

she was yelling at me, but her breath just reeked

so bad and the entire room just smelled of it.

This tiny room just filled up with the odor of

her breath. It was one of the worst times I've

ever gotten yelled at, and it wasn't because

of the yelling. What did you do to get her angry?

Did you try to give her a mince or something?

No, I was at Easy Scan and I didn't want to be

on Easy Scan. I was never trained for Easy Scan

and I just didn't want to be there that day.

And so a guy goes, hey, how's it going? Terrible.

Oh, what's wrong? I'm like, I don't want to be

on this stupid machine because they never trained

me for it. He goes, that bad, huh? I'm like,

yep, I'd rather be dead. And so I got pulled

into the office for that because you're not supposed

to be angry in front of the customers and blah

blah blah Kind of it's like I'd rather kill.

Yeah, that's yeah, I could see I mean the the

bad breath is bad. Yeah Alright next one would

you you have a choice between either? being able

to ride in the DeLorean with the ability to go

through time or The Batmobile and I'll go with

the Batmobile if you're choosing since there's

like a trillion of them Chop what would you choose?

Definitely the DeLorean really even though the

Batmobile is like the most iconic car ever Nah,

I just I would love to like be able to go through

time I don't know like if you took away the time

element if it was just a ride in one of them.

Yeah, I'd probably go Batmobile, but Just the

fact of like trying to get up to 88 miles per

hour and then just vanishing That would be incredible.

And then conversely, when you reappear and just

look at everyone's faces when your car comes

out of nowhere, that would be awesome. Greg,

you picking DeLorean or you going Patmobile?

Yeah, I'm definitely going with Chuck here, especially

after reading, what's his name? Shit. Uh, uh,

he did mark miller or millar, however you say

his name, uh, chrono mouth definitely Makes you

want to travel through time. So I've got to read

that. I've heard good things Yes, it is. It is

really good actually Yeah, it's kind of tough

because the batmobile if it was is a really cool

car I mean, I love the 1989 version of the batmobile.

It's pretty iconic. It's batman, you know, but

the delorean can also fly It had the doors open

sideways. I mean, come on sideways door So I

guess like some of the batmobiles have doors

like that too. I guess depending on what the

Lambo doors. Yeah But yeah, I gotta I gotta go

with DeLorean too I mean, there's not many things

that can be Batman but being able to travel through

time is definitely one of them So kind of kind

of more of a again like a choice here between

some positive, you know, we did the whole bad

breath and deodorant thing which kind of would

suck, but this is a good thing. Would you, again,

go with, would you rather, you have a choice

between either going to the beach of your choosing

for a week or going to the city of your choosing

for a week. Which one would you choose? I'm more

of a beach person. I'm not a fan of the crowded

streets, the smells. I'd rather go to a nice

private beach or something like that. Do you

have a beach that you would have in mind? I've

never really actually gone to many beaches so

people shout out your favorite beaches in the

comments. I've heard good things about Greece

and of course, like, you know, Atlantic City.

Wait, no, it's not. Um, I don't know. Antarctica?

Lake Stanton? That is a pretty good beach, right?

Yeah, just don't drive into it is all. Yeah,

exactly. Chuck, what about you? I go to the beach,

I think. I never really got to go to the beach

as a kid. And within the last few years, I've

been able to go to a couple of them. And I just

like, I never knew you could like fall in love

with a place. but apparently you can because

like Certain like there's certain places I go

and like beach is one of them like just the smell

of the ocean and Like everything is just so cool

there There's like tons of stuff to do with boardwalk

and everything and I don't know city life never

really impressed me that much with anything I

do like seeing sights and stuff like that, but

I gotta go at the beach. See I gotta go city

I'm not like I like the beach for like a day

or two But after that, I'm kind of like, all

right, I'm good. I could go do something else.

But I know for like a city, I would love to go

to people, go to Boston or... Boston is really

nice. That is, if you're going to go to a city,

that's the best city to go to. Yeah. Or even

like, I'd love to go to Austin, Texas, especially

for like SF Sketch Fest or stuff like that. You

don't want to do that right now. Why not right

now? Sorry. A heart out to all the people in

Texas that are flooded. That's awful. Was it

Houston? I thought it was Houston that was flooded.

I don't know, but Texas is a crappy state right

now with water. Yeah, yeah. And then California

has no water, so yeah. Oh, they should ship it

over. Exactly. But I'd love to go to Portland.

I mean, there's a lot of great cities I would

love to go to. So and I think there's for me

personally, I'd. I feel like I would get bored

quicker with the beach. I've gotten to the beach.

I like going to the beach. It's a great time.

I went to Miami. I thought that was great. I

even like Ocean City, Maryland. Though I feel

like Ocean City, Maryland, like it started decorating

and like designing everything in like 1995 and

then just stopped and then didn't advance beyond

that. And that city is completely, its entire

economy is based upon sunglasses, t -shirts and

mini golf it's like that's it like that's the

three main exports of uh ocean city maryland

but i mean then you have those cities which are

a little bit of both right like miami is a city

and and uh at great beach so yeah you got like

san diego i love going to san diego i would love

to go to baltimore i wish i knew someone that

lived there me too me too it probably can get

really cheap because the one's coming to baltimore

this year i don't know why i don't know what

happens How about this one? If you have the choice

between either watching your most hated team

Lose in heartbreaking fashion in the in the championship

game Super Bowl what -have -you I'm assuming

that's the one you'd go with watching watching

them lose in such heartbreaking fashion or Seeing

them not go to the playoffs at all with which

which one would you choose? No playoffs at all.

I don't want the Patriots to do a damn thing

And Greg's a Vikings fan, I guess I don't know

who else the Vikings Rivals would be but I mean,

it's it's easier. They hate the Patriots Green

Bay Detroit Yeah, I don't mind Green Bay at all.

I'm fine with Green Bay. They're good guys, you

know Yeah. What about you, Chuck? I mean, I'd

rather them not even make the playoffs at all,

I think. I go with watching them lose in heartbreaking

fashion because as a Giants fan, the team I go

to are the Eagles, the team I hate. I love watching

them just continue to choke. It's a beautiful

thing to witness. It happens so often, like all

the time, usually in the championship game, occasionally

in the Super Bowl. But there's just something

special about that, you know, like it's like,

oh, you went all that way and it was for nothing.

and you ended up losing. And I think it's just

it's like extra sweet. I mean, yeah, it's great

to see them not lose at all. But then you have

if you get those rivals that just are losers

and don't it's like the Browns, right? The Browns

are basically pointless. It's kind of good to

have a team to hate. So I that's why I think

heartbreaking fashions is a good choice, especially,

you know, I love watching Patriots lose in heartbreaking

fashion because it's usually against the Giants.

So that's true. I'm all for it. Always get nervous

though like it gets stressed out like if it's

really gonna happen or if are they gonna pull

out the win? I'm gonna be really annoyed Yeah,

that's true. But I think I'd rather have that

than just like say a game where I have no connection

to whatsoever ends up being like a really huge

blowout picking up like the The bronco seattle

game like like I had like no steak. I won't see

paint one But it didn't really matter to me.

So but like the game this year I was rooting

hard against the patriots and uh, so I don't

know I added though Seeking the seahawks one.

It's not much better. But yeah All right, how

about this one if you had the choice between

either never having to sleep again Or never having

to go to the bathroom again, which one would

you choose? I like pooping. You know what I mean?

It's very satisfying when you cut off the turd.

You answer that question like immediately. There's

no hesitation whatsoever. You just line cut me.

I like to poop. I also really like to sleep.

So I think this is kind of obvious that I would

just... What was that outside? What was the question

again? I just like I like to sleep and I like

to poop I would rather not have to sleep again

or not Again with which rather choice between

either never having to sleep again or never having

to go to the bathroom Okay, so this is actually

hard then I don't I don't feel like I sleep a

lot to begin with so I guess I'll get rid of

sleep now Because poop just takes up a lot of

time too. And sometimes there's a bad poop I

spend a like good half an hour in there first

set Yeah So I'll go without the poops what about

you check This is a thing right now This is the

one we what the more the most thought Greg's

put into this so far it was with the pooping

in the sleeping Put some rather good thought

into other know you did you did? I would only

rephrase that the most like the quick reaction.

It was just I like pooping. I mean, I feel like

that's not the first time you said that today

Maybe this year. It's not the first time I've

said it but I uh, I think If I could still function

well I would give up the sleep because it just

takes up so much time your life Obviously like

a third of your life And I would have more time

to watch movies and read comics and stuff. So

yeah, I It's tough because I do agree like sleeping

probably takes up more time but There's such

a like involved aspect of pooping It's like so

much goes into that like you can get all messy

and like, yeah I mean if you don't have to do

that then you don't need to like, you know, don't

need toilets anymore It's going along car rides

and not you know, you need a bed day down You

can uh, I love one Uh, too, uh, you can like

eat mexican food with no fear. I mean imagine

that imagine that Uh, like no fear No fear whatsoever.

I already do, though. And then regret it immediately

later. It's like, oh, that was. But Mexican food

doesn't bother me for some reason. So good. We

need to go Chipotle. The old cast iron anus,

I guess. But yes, I think I'd rather and I do

like sleeping. I do enjoy it. You know, dreams

are a good time and I don't know, a good nap.

If you find the ability to nap like it's so hard

to do, but like a good day nap, like on the weekend.

Man, it's just you just feel good. You just feel

good so much so much so that you end up just

going back to sleep anyways, but But yeah, so

i'd go i'm gonna go with i'd rather keep the

ability to sleep Maybe we'll we'll make this

the last one and this one i'm I was questioning

about doing we'll see how it goes and feel free

to say neither for this one if you would like

but If you had a choice, would you either? choose

between reliving your high school years or reliving

your years in college? College. Why is that?

Because he likes pooping. Well, in college, you're

a little bit more matched down to peers that

you would get along with. In high school, I got

picked on a lot, of course. I just didn't like

there was a lot of different personalities that

you had like you were grouped off into People

that had similar interests. It was a little you

had a gamut of of people in there that with different

likes and dislikes and so you'd bought heads

a lot and My high school years were just scary

for me going to school and everything. I felt

much more popular in college. There was a lot

more people that I got along with in college.

I've met you guys in my college years, so I would

rather relive college over again. Plus, my classes

were kind of fun in college. I played on the

computer and made stuff. How about you, Chuck?

I would definitely relive my high school years

in a heartbeat. I did not like college at all.

Maybe it was just the experience that I had,

but you know, I kind of went away. I didn't really

know anyone there. Kind of had trouble connecting

with people down there. I didn't make too many

friends. I think I met like four people that

I liked down there. Which I went to Penn State,

by the way, state college. But yeah, I don't

know. I mean, high school was, I pretty much

got along with everyone in high school and everything

was, everything was really good in my life at

that time. I think afterwards I had some harrowing

experiences and some things with ex crazy girlfriends

and, you know, a lot of, a lot of weird stuff

that happened in my, in my life too. So I think

high school, I would definitely go. Yeah, it's

kind of tough for me because I kind of want to,

I'm thinking college because I had fun in both.

I liked high school. I did, there was a lot of

people that I did not, was not a big fan of that

I had to deal with in high school on a daily

basis. Though I did like, you know, played sports.

I enjoyed doing that and I had a lot of friends.

I wasn't like... I mean, Chuck and I went to

a really small high school like graduation class

of like 80 people, most of which we went to school

with since we were like in third grade or kindergarten.

So it was, you know, it's a different dynamic

for sure. But I don't know, I had a lot of fun

in college and I had more freedom. And I met

Greg and still got to hang out with Chuck, so

considering college led to this podcast, I guess

maybe I'll go with college. I, unlike Chuck,

stayed home and was a commuter, so maybe that's

a part of that as well. Commuters! Oddly enough,

I don't really stay connected to anyone in high

school or college besides you guys, so there

you go. and a few other people. I don't really

either, so. Me as well. I probably connected

with more people from podcasting than actual,

like, you know, high school. Though I'm friends

with them on Facebook, if that counts, I don't

know. But yeah, so that's it for the would you

either game, I guess you would say, because basically

what it was, you know, would you either. But

before we go, we like to end each episode with

a letter. And I kind of tease this to begin with,

and I was going to do this last week, but...

And that was I wrote a journal basically quote

-unquote journal some of the stuff is fabricated

per se But it was basically the the first day

in the life of being a dad for the first time

for a week. So See how this goes May 5th 2015

16 15 p .m Well after a long night of waiting

Connor has entered the world and finally we have

a baby that does not look like all other babies

You're welcome, America. I had to leave him the

nursery where I'm sure he'll get all the numbers

from all the female babies hanging out there

as well. This actually happened, by the way.

8 15 p .m. I've only been a father for two hours

and I've already almost been arrested. While

trying to bring our baby from our nursery down

to our room, I frightened the security guard

who did not see the nurse who was accompanying

me. Assuming I was trying to steal a baby, she

flung open the security doors to stop my baby

burglary. Luckily once the doors open she realized

her mistake and then to turn the table and try

to sell some oils truly that she handmade I turned

her down and now I feel like I've opened myself

up for rest once again But that actually really

happened. I was taking Connor down to the stairs

and I had a little cart thing that was pushing

him on her him in and she didn't see the nurse

and she like the doors flung open and it was

just like she was like going after me but stopped

halfway through when she saw there was a nurse

because she thought i was trying to steal a baby

so see you got a baby there don't mind me just

stealing my own baby it's interesting too because

all babies have like little blowjack things on

their ankles so you can't like take them out

without getting noticed They're instantly on

house arrest as soon as they're born. Exactly,

exactly. Weird way to start your life. But he

literally had your name on him. I should have

did like Dwight Shute says and like make a mark

so that way I know it's mine. 9 45 p .m. Trying

to determine what movie should be Connors first.

Right now it's a toss -up between Aladdin or

Goodfellas. My worry is that it will scar him

from life as it will set two HIVA standards for

other movies to match up to. Yeah, Aladdin's

pretty violent. I'd keep away from that. It is

pretty violent. 11 .30 p .m. Apparently, although

Connor is only hours old, he can stay up later

than I can. On the bright side, I've watched

The Tonight Show during its normal schedule of

time for the first time in years. 2 .45 a .m.

Currently, I am up to eight times reciting the

beginning of Lion King with Connor. Once I learn

the words of Circle of Life, this will only get

better. Circle! Circle of life and I'm not denying

that I keep doing that and my wife is like you

can you can stop that any day 4 30 a .m. I have

not really slept in the last 48 hours I can no

longer see color and beginning to forget where

my hands are located 6 25 a .m. I've changed

my third diaper this time without being peed

on wait wait no here here it comes I'm getting

to accept it now You gotta you gotta flip a diaper

over the top of his wee -wee so it deflects off

It deflects off that and doesn't go into your

face The issue is when you open it and it's right

there. It's like immediate You're like we I feel

like you're you're doing it on purpose now Well,

you still gotta hover over the top of it with

another diaper and take that one off and so Indiana

Jones it from Raiders of the Lost Ark, you know,

yes Exactly. Yeah, it's gonna take a pressure

release valve 745 a .m. Carol's told me to cut

it out with the Lion King stuff. So now instead

every time I go to hold Connor I train on my

inner Mel Gibson from ransom and shout Give me

back my son 746 a .m. I've been told I can no

longer do that Well 856 a .m. I'm beginning to

wonder why when Connor burps and farts he gets

a good boy, but when I'm do it I'm ostracized

This is ageism in its worst way 10 15 a .m. Trying

to figure out a way to make it possible for my

son not to know that the Star Wars prequels exist.

My worst fear is that he will like them more

because the special effects are newer or worse

yet like Jar Jar. I shudder at the thought. 11

38 a .m. I've begun to subtly whisper daddy in

his ear every time I get the chance in hopes

it's crafting his first word. See I do that with

girls I go Don't correlate these two things Greg

nuts, that's I don't want that mention 245 p

.m. Have begun to notice that when babies sleep

their mouths look like fish caught in the wind

Oh 30 p .m. Beginning to get excited by the fact

that I can play with toys again and not look

in And look like a good father rather than a

creepy guy who have social issues 6 15 p .m.

Made it through day one of being a dad It's every

amazing thing people said it would be and more

happiness means much so much more to me than

it did before Also, glad that it will be nothing

but smooth sailing from this moment on the hard

work is finally over end of day one I promise

that's the last like letter and baby stuff. Yeah,

I'm I promise that's the last time I'm gonna

cheap do some cheap baby stuff So I don't know

maybe it won't be got it. You got it like, you

know do it like when Sitcoms bring in like the

new kid because like they're the old kids like

old now, you know Olsen's points are like teenagers.

feed but for now This has been Chuck This has

been Greg, or thine Greg, who likes to poops.

And this has been Dan, and we've been talking

in circles. We'll see you next week. I remember

in like first grade, we had this kid, he would

like, the bathroom was right across the hall

from the classroom, and he would go in there

and stand at the standing urinal thing and just

completely drop his pants to his ankles. Just

stand there bare -ass. When I was at Rice Chopper,

there was a guy there that did that. Chuck was

developmentally appropriate for the time. What

are you gonna keep bringing it up for? Sorry,

oh that was you? yourself? Oh, sorry, I was on

mute. I was like, why aren't you responding to

my laughter? And I was on mute. Yeah, I'm gonna

have one for myself. Guess what, everybody? And

then I was just gonna flash my junk. I have a

cupcake. I just feel like we need to have a party

for like everything nowadays or like some sort

of like card or celebration. I'm like... Pizza

party. Like it hit a head when I had to sign

a card for someone's who their pet cat died.

I'm like, I don't wanna, this is really simple.

What? Yeah. I was like, we got a cat, we got

a card because their cat died. I'm like, that's,

yeah. I would have been like, got a card because

their cat died? Yeah, like a, like a sympathy

card. And they had a sympathy card just for pets.

It was like, I'm like, you gotta be kidding me.

So. I would have went to sign it and be like,

oh, it's a shame, my pen's out of ink. I guess

I'll have to pass on this one. My pen's out of

ink. I need a pen sympathy card. I'm so sorry

for your loss. It was the best pad you've ever

owned. It didn't smear you up too easily when

you rode over the top of something. It's in the

Penn Cemetery. This is going to the bloopers,

right? Yeah, probably. I'm thinking I'm putting

that at the end.
