Bombin' the A.M. With Scoops and the Wolf: 10/14/2013

I feel like i'm in a my own pokemon boat. I played tons and tons of pokemon blue. thats it. never wanted to play one again after that. but every time one comes out I think maybe its time again.

and I just got a 3ds but i might have to pry it out of my girlfriends cold dead hands to actually get to use it.

Oh hell no, you didn't just diss Dave Fennoy (Lee)!

Not at all, he's great. Perhaps it's just how TT uses their dialogue that makes it sound unnatural, while other characters dialogue feel fluent when talking, the main characters sound a bit out of the conversation as if not replying to something.

Alex: All you need know about Pokemon: Pick Froakie.

You know what's awesome?

FOOTBALL ON THE PODCAST.

Finally someone I can relate to.

Football and Vidjagames.

I can't remember if it was this morning show or the one on Friday (edit: it was Friday), but Patrick repeated his use of the phrase "the Stanley Parable demo is the designer having this existential crisis about demos" that he also used verbatim when he played it in Worth Playing. While there is a lot of satire and fourth-wall breaking in the demo, I don't think you can even apply the term "existential crisis" to something as mundane as a demo. There's no crisis; the SP demo is a planned thing that pokes fun at specific elements of the goals and intents of most regular demos (while also portraying the demo as a sort of weird live tour). The phrase you're looking for is "the Stanley Parable demo is a meditation on demos". Existential crisis is not even remotely applicable.

Sometimes I feel like Patrick just wants to use big words to describe things he likes, and then chooses random big words that don't actually fit the situation.
