Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: Grab Bag Edition

We celebrate wrestling victuals, fine crocheting, and young love!

What's in the mail? Is it an old T-shirt? A lunchbox full of rusty knives? Video game treasures? Canadian energy drinks?

What is the origin story of the DayZ knife? inquiring minds want to know.

It looks pretty useless against zombies.

It weirds me out no end hearing Jeff pronounce Cymru (Wales) as Cwmbran (valley of the crows) my home town. To Brad's question most of those crisps/chips are the cheaper end of the snacky offerings in the UK.

My guess: a new Saints Row is coming, and Vinny was modeling some dildo-themed swag Volition sent them when everyone was laughing. I'm going to go with double-ended-dildo-nunchuks this time.

Or maybe they've been sent an unannounced new console. But my mind always goes to dildos first.

I dunno, watching a bunch of dudes laugh about shit off-screen just made the actual mailbag boring and frustrating. "Look at this way less interesting stuff!"

It's because of this song.

Yay! I'm glad they liked my crochet stuff. I was listening to the Bombcast a few weeks ago and the commercial immediately had me thinking "I can make that..." and that was why I considered it a bad idea. I was wondering if I took the joke too far. Glad I didn't!

Also, Jeff pronounced my name right!

Great thing to wake up to after not feeling well the last couple of days.

Funny how before I wasn't particularly excited for E3 at all and now I can't wait. Gotta know what was in that box!

E3 mysteries in that box! Damn you, a box!

Nice work on the crocheting! Both the joke and the non-joke were pretty awesome.

@vuud: It looks like they bought a bunch of the Ian Sinclair Cardsharp knives, my guess is the original 1.0 design plastic body ones like I bought when they were still showing it as a concept, and just branded them for promo swag. It's pretty handy to keep in my wallet for box opening and other knifey things, but I've been wanting to get one of the new ones that are all metal and probably don't feel as flimsy.
