Who told Dan to like wrap the toilet paper around his hand? Am I the only person that folds it like a normal person?

"Jason, I know how I wipe my own ass! You're completely wrong about this!"

A website about video games...

Also, props to Drew for his, Jeff, and Brad's reaction shots to hearing about Dan's bathroom habits.

Like Dan I've been replaying through the Halo games. It turns out everything I remember Halo 2 being, was actually Halo 3.

@liquidprince: The 'general consensus' of the destiny community is not objective. We're all suffering from stolkholm syndrome.

At this point, any Destiny qualifies as good Destiny. Doesn't matter if the story is bad, the cut scenes are 30 seconds long at most, and the pallet swap is lazy. We'll still eat it up to boot that sweet loot loop into our veins, but it's obviously a lazy final cash in nowhere near the quality of Taken King.

Jeff and Dan are crazy and are too hung up on the aesthetics. Black Ops 3 is probably the best playing CoD mulitplayer since BO1. AW was a nice change of pace from what CoD was but it ultimately fell to the same issues that prior CoDs suffer from. There's a flow to BO3 that may not be quite as good as Titanfall, is close enough and still much better than AW.

I mean, look at how much fun this GB video is:

Sure they mock the characters for being stupid, but that has it's own charm. Even if it is goofy and silly, isn't it OK to not be so serious like all the other CoD's?

I really enjoyed that bathroom argument, it brought back memories of childhood arguments except it ended in a fight most of the time.

@drmantistabogganmd: The Taken King was by far the worst Destiny expansion. It had the worst raid, which was too mechanically heavy and an absolute bore to playthrough even with a group of well versed players. It had the worst smattering of new loot and players had to endure an entire year of essentially every weapon archetype and subclass being nerfed and neutered.

Literally the only good that came from Taken King was the introduction of the new subclasses (which were all over immediately nerfed into the ground,) the restructuring of the quest system and the addition of more cutscenes.

Rise of Iron is better in every conceivable way.

You know what? I think I could've guessed that Dan is wasteful with toilet paper when he uses the bathroom. But I really didn't need to know that information firsthand.

Don't flush baby wipes, even if they say they're flushable. They won't clog your toilet, but do cause huge problems for water treatment plants. They're a pain to extract, and tend to clump up with shit and form some horrible fecal lasagna. Just toss them in the trash.

In Rise of Iron, I jumped up to 350 real quick, without much grind at all. It's the getting to 360 and the raid that's a huge grind again. It's just like The Taken King, where I finished all the quests and was still 10 light short of raid ready, and it takes for goddamn ever to grind up to that point.

There is a youtube channel called Hot Pepper Gaming, where the reviewers eat a hot pepper (jalapeno, habanero, ghost etc) and then review the game.

I come to this video game website for a nuanced and informed discussion of the merits (or lack thereof) of stand your ground laws, and I am SORELY disappointed!!!

"I'd rather shit in a Walmart than my home, any day." Add that to the Dan quotes.

I still cannot whistle either, Brad. I feel you. That "whisper Q" advice makes no sense to me. I don't understand how it applies to whistling.

It's amazing how wrong Jeff and Dan are about BLOPS3 vs Advanced Warfare, saying the latter is better. My god.

Different strokes for different folks I suppose!

"I'd rather **** in a Walmart, any day of the week."

Wont eat fig newtons because there might be some kind of dissolved bug residue in there.

Taken King fixed a bad game. Simple as that.

It's officially midnight, I'm well-beered, and a remembrance of Dan's enthusiasm earlier this week has led me to the conclusion that I must procure and re-watch John Wick forthwith. Just as soon as I beat this goddamn 7th boss in Furi.

@jackiechansfoot: Taken King was two steps forward, three steps back. Rise of Iron is taking the mechanical improvements that TTK provided and giving it an actually good wrapper. Simple as that.

Jason, you are giving Dan the opposite advice he would want. That garbage will clog the plumbing.

DO NOT PUT BABY WIPES DOWN A TOILET.

the term “flushable” is not legally defined or regulated by the Federal Trade Commission.

@rktjmp Most likely which I recall that being hot pepper gaming through Greg Miller of Kinda Funny who's been featured a few times on HPG. It was pretty funny if you can find the clip.

From the castle doctrine to how to wipe your ass, this podcast just won't be the same without Dan in a few months. Maybe that's for the best?

So where can I stream john whick from as it does sound pretty ridiculous...and really the poop particles again..sigh. Your nose smells chemicals given off by things not matter that is poop. And for the pee in space - they CONVERT it to water. What they drink is water. This same thing happens when you use "poop" for fertilizer. It chemically changes and BECOMES something else. It is no longer "poop"... and the castle doctrine is not at all bullshit... and AHHHH they never read my Atari and Intellivision email maybe next week....(and I can't whistle blowing out either only by sucking in) and i would watch live video of someone sleeping on the couch....

Don't arm wrestle. When adults arm wrest they break their arms (seriously). You probably won't think you broke your arm because it will be micro fractures. You're arm will be sore for weeks afterwards.

Here's what mr bat does when mr knife is coming at him. He looks mr knife right in the eyes while he swings at the side of mr knife's legs, preferably aiming for the knees. Mr bat might even give up a jab to mr knife if it brings him in range for a good knee shot, because once that bat connects with knee/ligament mr knife is not going to be doing much of anything other than laying on the ground and/or screaming in pain. It's a lot harder to dodge a swing at the legs than at the upper body, you're pretty much going to hit something hard unless mr knife can either jump really high or really far back quickly. There's no reason that the individual with longer reach should ever lose unless they screw up royally.

Maybe I've been looking at the wrong places, or haven't looked deep enough, but everything I had seen, except for the raid and the kill confirmed PvP mode, was people saying Rise of Iron was several steps back from TTK/the April update.
