The whole pointing animation thing is supposed to be him just tapping his lapel. It would look completely normal if they'd actually got his finger to make contact with said part of jacket... -.-

Just in case you guys decide to read the comments for tips or whatever:
 

  • • You can skip the "picked up item" screen by pressing Start.
  • • You can also skip the "getting in the car" animation by pressing Start.
  • • You can get a fast travel option by completing a side mission for the Sheriff. He's at home at around 21:00, and he makes you get some flower that only shows up when it rains (the flower should show up on your map, as you guys have already seen).
  • • As far as I know, it usually doesn't matter if you miss a deadline, as you can just do it again the next day, so you can go and do sidemissions if you want.
  • • A way to pass time in the open world is to use cigarettes to smoke, but this will also cause your "tiredness" to increase and make you hungry. There are often "infinite pickle" spots next to some beds in the game that make them perfect for waiting stuff out (like in the graveyard).
  • • Later in the game, after you meet all the townsfolk, you can do side missions in the junkyard to increase the speed of your car, and buy other, faster cars, with better handling.
  • • When peaking through windows, you can press the bumpers to switch to a different window without having to reload the place.

Guys, you can not only skip the profiling video after you start it (and still get the money for doing it), you can also skip the "YOU GOT ___" item video by hitting start.  You dudes gotta start hitting buttons!

I love how Ryan was like 'Hey! what are you looking at?' and Jeff is like 'Heeey, this just got a whole lot better....'

This game seems better and better the more you goof off.  The restaurant scene and John Hughes trivia is classic.  I wonder if you can go to any location in the game and get a scene like that? 
 
Team VJ definitely has the ER crown.

Its nice to see VJ aren't the story robots BR have been, but im still backing them as much as it hurts after Brad's recent fearless bravado.

" You know what Agent York's film-related monologues are reminding me of? Patrick Bateman's music monologues in the "American Psycho" novel. They're almost exactly the same tone. "
Holy shit. That's a horrifyingly astute observation. This game keeps finding new ways (both intentional and not) to creep me the fuck out. I'd love it if York was the killer, but somehow I don't think the game is quite clever enough to pull that off. Then again, that might not necessarily be enough to stop it from trying.

One of the developers of this game must be a fan of the Japanese band "the pillows", because the can of "the pickles" at 16:43 uses the band's logo:

At first I was skeptical about DP as an endurance run. But after seeing the production, I lost all sceptability

Thank goodness you guys listened to the comments on the length thing, at this rate you may catch up to team BR and put their rushing to shame.

That was all pretty cool.
 
Loved the part where they got rammed by the wheelchair guy's limo - also hearing York go on about old 80s films in the car is great and somehow fleshes him out more than most protagonists in games.  Oh and INFINITE PICKLES!!!  That should probably be made into a T-shirt or something.

I've come to realize that watching one episode per day of the endurance run is a much healthier way to take in the endurance run, as opposed to the 2 week long binge I took for the first endurance run. My family isn't saying that they miss me this time.

Heyo duders, if I remember correctly you can skip the recieved item screen after picking one up by mashing B or Start, I know if you hit it multiple times preemptively it will stop it form showing up at all to help keep the game from breaking up.
