Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: The 2012 Kickoff

A plethora of pernicious presents arrives just in time to corrupt our new year.

I enjoyed Ryan tossing the Yoshi head away as soon as he started ranting.

Yeah, that was a bit too 'fuck gifts' for me.

It was probably an unconscious reaction to the challenge that Yoshi did not ruin Mario (he did). You'll find that when people are about to make what they consider a great point, or speak to something they strongly believe, they tend to stand. Ryan did this, threw down the false idol of Yoshi, and proceeded to verbally kick Will's ass in the best possible way.

Goddamn I love him.

@Konanda: It was a persona 3 portable preorder bonus, atleast that's how i got it.
 
 
Either way, it's not from the persona vinny and jeff played through so i'm not sure what that was about. I still wear my Junpei hat when I feel ike wearing a hat though, it's pretty good quality.

I have to stretch the limits of my imagination to believe Patrick is older than 20, when wearing that hat.

Christ, he looked a lot like one of my high school mates.

Like Patrick needed something to make him look even younger. I really hope he wore the hat the whole day.

There isn't enough content this year. I'm on break with nothing to do but there is an overflow of videos when I have work to do. No Bueno. Thanks for giving us this kind of stuff in the meantime though, guys.

Uh, yeah, where'd he get the idea that Charlie Tunoku even wore a hat at any point in the game. Well, other than the white one in the hospital.

That Junpei hat is currently sitting on my shelf . It's pretty sweet. That Zelda hat is also pretty cool. Unfortunately, my hair does not allow me to wear hats because its spiky.

This is to go with Patrick's hat.

Guess I'll also post this one, since someone will probably reply with it anyway if I don't:

I love how silence falls in the office when Ryan get up to talk about Yoshi, felt like everyone in the office was against him.

Honestly, some of my favorite moments from Whiskey Media involve Ryan vs. Will. I really really hope they actually hate each other in the worst way possible...I love them both but their hate sustains me O_O /creep

The Junpei hat is odd, especially since no one in that office is a P3 fan as far as I know. It'd be nice if Jeff or Vinny check it out someday though.

I love Ryan's subtle hatred of Will too. There appears to be no reasoning behind it.. but there almost doesn't need to be. It's endlessly amusing. Eczécutable.

being a philly native i literally screamed at my computer due to ur brutish way of opening the package of the kimpet. U have rub the top of the package on a flat surface so the icing does not peel off when the package comes off.

Thats is all, this was all in good fun.

That is not a Charlie hat, that's a Junpei hat from Persona 3

Whoever sent that needs to have a brick applied to their head.
