Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: Are These Earbuds Edition

Is the audio really muffled on this one?

Edit: Thanks to Aaron Trites for dumping his trash.

Hell yeah, Pain & Gain IS a good movie.

:(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

Dan, learning to be a proper human being one month at a time. Good job making tea.

Jeff's "I was holding my copy of that not 48 hours ago" bit is my new favorite thing.

Discs? Is this 1898?

Love MAILBAGS!

Oh yes! I wondered why Drew was so content to just stand there.

rofl at drew for giving dan a drum topper bukkake.

This is maybe the 5th time I have heard him say this, I love it.

"Cool! Can I see this?"

Pain and Gain is a horrible movie.

Dan: "Breaking news! They just found Jimmy Hoffa's body!"

Jeff: "You know, I was just holding that not 24 hours ago."

That ending. lol!

CDs? Blu Rays? DVDs? GO TO BED OLD MAN.

Or that Windows 10 thing is just MS trying and failing to be ahead of the curve again.

They're sitting around consoles. Do any of the consoles play CDs anymore?

Nickelback is exactly the kind of band I'd expect @danryckert to like. They are, somehow, incredibly popular among regular joes like Dan. The hard working, beer drinking portion of America.

It's adorable watching Dan learn how to drink tea and learn about baby feet and generally become a real grown-up before our very eyes.

Haha. What did Dan do to Drew?

@sykdom: Yeah, I wanted to like it so bad, but after twenty minutes or so I had to shut it off I hated it so much

Pain & Gain is definitely a bad movie.

HAHAHA PSA: If anyone is contemplating turning this off after a couple of minutes, make sure youfast forward to the last 20 seconds first

When I read plugs and butts on the description I thought I was in some other website selling other things...

Does that box seems a little suspicious like it is part of a grander design?

Also that ending! Did something went bad with Metal Gear!?

I have to ask Aaron why he had so much Nickelback material lying around.

Dan got dumpstered. As it should be.

JG:"Doctor Tracksuit submerged back into the ocean"

Will he return when humanity needs him? Is he Godzilla?

Well that seems like a useful package.

Beer looked really great though.

Oh that Aaron from Harmonx. You should all go look what they sent Dan and Panzer of No Goblin a week before they were going to move.

Spoilers: It was mostly smoke machine fluid.

@bacongames: I'm more curious about his extensive collection of ladies' shoes.

Of course, it's probably just Rock Band promo material. Nothing weird or sinister about that...

TEA? Well look at Dan being all fancy and shit.

Was that a vcd of Mortal Kombat?

ROBOT VINNY. NEVER FORGET.

Pain and Gain is the epitome of mediocre, in my mind. Also Dan seems like he wold love Nickleback if he heard them before finding out from the internet that they are garbage.

After seeing so much Nickelback stuff together, now I understand why the letter referred to the contents of the box as "trash".

@drewbert is the only one with a clean organized desk lol also IDK how the hell you stand all day.

Never forget! Never stop laughing at that ending! Good one, Drewbert

I was really hoping at the end that Dan had forgotten to take a shoe out of the box.

Giantbomb is the #1 home for Nickleback CDs

Until you start wondering what happened to all the missing individual shoes from each pair.

Dan is right, Pain & Gain is a great movie.

I actually like some of Nickelback's stuff. I make no apologies for that fact.

Drew, you are my hero... dat ending lol

I have a CD drive... and I actively buy DVDs because nobody else does anymore and so they're hilariously cheap and hahaha at you, suckers! Physical media, boyyyyeee!

And hey, I recognize them thar autographed Pac Man cheat sheets. I received one of those from this very website! I still have it, packed away somewhere.

Confessional time: "Silver Side Up" and "The State" are alright. Don't get me wrong, Nickelback is terrible, but they started off okay. I mean, they were never *great*, it was still bland radio rock, but they were competent enough.

I heard Pain & Gain was a load of shit, better listen to Dan though!

Dude... I could totally use those drum stick toppers...

Drew MVP.

Is Dan Rykert a martian?
