The video drop down has never been that great, as far as I can remember. It's also lacking Old Games Show, mailbags, VRodeo, and Ranking of Fighters.

Yep. I think if the guys established some kind of protocol for a new feature that dictated categories, it'd make things easier. Like say, 5 "occurences" into a feature, it gets a category. But again, maybe they'd like to do that, but the guts of the site don't make it as easy as it looks...? I don't know. They have their reasoning, I'm sure. Maybe dropping a line to Jeff on tumblr about it would help.

It's an interesting quirk about the video categories. There isn't a category for Unprofessional Fridays either, for example. There is a way to search in the videos page, but it isn't as nice as having categories for every feature. I'm with you there. I don't know what dictates a feature getting its own category, but for now, Demo Derby is under Premium.

Maybe this is something that Jeff would like to address in his hypothetical improvements to the site that he mentions in the recent 09/12/16 Jar Time. I don't know.

A pretty good alternative to the search feature I mentioned above is to use the QL Crew site that filters a lot of the Giant Bomb videos. Here's a link to a "Demo Derby" search results on that site. Hope that helps!

I feel like @alex should and will be the discipline that @danryckert needs to balance out the enthusiasm that @vinny will provide. Almost like parents.

Basically, Alex will probably have to sit Dan down and do this to him sometimes to rein him in from making "bad" decisions.

The Fly (1986) remake. Saw it when I was like... 6 or 7, so about 10 years after it came out. Throughout the movie, the fear and creepiness was building for me until I got genuinely terrified at the very end with this scene below. I finished the movie and everything, but I kept thinking about this scene and possibly running into Brundlefly in my house for about a month or two after my viewing. "No, I don't need to go pee right now. I'll just hold it until it isn't so dark because Brundlefly is out there." Shit like that.

Nowadays, I really love this movie. It's really well-done and this scene in particular is done so perfectly. I love the way his eyes just plop the fuck out with slime trailing. Definitely deserved the Best Make-Up Oscar.

Product tester at a video game company. I like the job and don't mind monotony and such. So far my commute is the worst part of it all.

I don't expect to be working here forever though. Half nature of the beast (qa life), half you always gotta look to improve yourself.

Just the power and hard drive lights. But given a choice, I'd go with a Fractal Design case, R5 or something like it. I like the minimalist aesthetic since I don't need my PC to pop or anything. Just work and run my software.

I will add in another voice to this problem. I'm not sure what's happening and if it's even their "fault". Either way, it is a little odd as I can still stream HD on everything else and used to do the same on this very site not too long ago.

20 a piece would be a more instant buy price. That said I'm gonna buy the first one for sure. Great memories of that game and now that my girlfriend knows who these people are thanks to the movies, I'm pretty sure I have another coop partner alongside my nerd friends.
