Steal My Sunshine: Episode 12

You basically nailed it. Seemed obvious to me, but maybe that's from playing so many board games where sometimes minutiae like the order that actions resolve becomes very important.

And like Abby said, they did it that way for the last couple times there was a red shine swap, so I think being consistent is fair (luckily, in this case, the consistent action is also the correct action). Dan probably didn't care before since he wouldn't have benefited in any way :P

Isn't it obvious? Yoshis come from the eggs that fall out of the sky that are laid by the Andy Sandbird.

Dan's habit of asking questions and not listening to the answer sucks. Really sucks.

Education AND Mario Sunshine.

I approve.

Why did chicken cross road?

To fuck in vagina.

Still my favourite currently running feature on GB at the moment.

Wow, the BBC Sherlock is incredible. All future Alex opinions filtered through this new lens

Yup, agreed I LOVED the first two seasons of BBC Sherlock. It got kinda weird towards the end tho.

After this episode I'm pretty sure Abby is a second, more socially adept Dan Ryckert. She is New Dan.

As an amateur linguist, I suggest Dan goes down the Phonetics rabbit-hole on Wikipedia if he wants to learn the difference in pronunciation between Gem and Gym.

My Sherlock hot take is that the first episode was so fantastic it deluded us all into thinking the rest of the show was any good.

I thought I may have come off as an ass after re-reading this and I've always liked Dan but this just seemed like he was trying to get one over on everyone. It's just one shine XD

@danryckert Nice opening argument Dan, very Trumpian of you, made me want to close the stream.

I agree with Alex. Cumberbatch Sherlock is Bad.

I think those drums are supposed to resemble tabla.

I think Dan might need a Shine intervention. At this rate the series is going to end with him being crushed under the weight of his own hubris. And by hubris I mean thousands of gumballs that he has convinced himself he needs.

Yeah, but his opinion of Doctor Who is exactly right so I'll let it go.

Was Dan crying after Vinny read from the "rulebook" or something? He was wiping his eyes a bit. Damn.

Given that Yoshi's shield in Smash Brothers places him inside of an egg, you might be on to something here. It's no egg, it's a Reactive Exoskeleton!

If girls have vaginas, do boys have the khloe kardashians?

So is there any chance this game is merciful and you could use the Turbo Nozzle to skim across the surface of the poison water in the Lily Pad river and get the red coins that way? Only killing Mario if he goes IN the water?

Seems like a good way to reward lateral thinking and players for using the full tool set.

I am not hopeful but worth a shot? They're all lined up perfectly for it, even that last one needing you to jump might launch Mario out of the water and onto the platform.

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one perpetually brought to tears by Eternal Sunshine. That movie is just too much, I have seen it like 6 times and still tear up every time without fail. So so so good.

good episode thanks everyone

All the opinions of tv shows/movies coming from GB East has always baffeled me.

Someone needs to go through these and make a tally of how many times Dan says "this sucks" about this masterpiece he loves so much.

@ilserpente: please we don’t use that dirty language on the regular boards.

Tried this out. But unfortunately no, you die as soon as you touch the water even with Turbo Nozzle. Also, getting on Yoshi resets your nozzle to the hover, so to enter this level with Turbo you have to vomit on the pipe then swim back to get the nozzle. Thankfully the vomit blocker doesn't reappear.

They really need to farm some lives before doing this again. I commented on a previous video that Piantas In Need is a good shine for doing that--the Piantas that spit out blue coins will give one-ups if you've already collected the coin. And personally I'd say to leave this shine till last or near last anyway (for me it was the absolutely last one I did). Moreso if just getting to the level is giving so much trouble (I mean, it's not actually that hard to jump onto the boats...)

Birds have Cloacas which are both their bottoms and front bottoms.

Wait I always thought adult Yoshis were in eggs because they were sealed there, not because they were born there. I mean this is the first thing Yoshi says in SMW.

Dan is basically Vinny's third child.

Entertaining and educational! Love it so much.

The way you can "cheese" the lilypad level is... the lilypad respawns once it breaks, but you'd normally never be able to tell this because you die. HOWEVER, you can walk across the paperthin walls of the stage in order to get back to the start and get another lilypad, which is slow, tense and tedious, hence why I put "cheese" in quotations. This is how I beat the lilypad level as a kid.

The lilypad level, both getting to it and playing it, is one of Nintendo's historic low points in game design. Miyamoto and Tezuka were the producers on this one, how the hell did it happen?

"I'm not a triangle, I'm a MAN!"

This video was...just a treasure.

I don't think Dan is actually familiar with the concept of logic.

you should leave the lily pad level as the last one :)

In this episode, No Fun Allowed Alex is guest starring

Vinny's idea about getting on the edge of the lilypad area was good! I did that when I first got this shine.

I learned today that I apparently have like the polar opposite TV tastes to the entire cast of GB East, especially re: Doctor Who.

I am curious if it is a case of knowing the original or not though. I grew up watching the old series, so I kind of appreciate how campy the new stuff is to keep the original flavour. I wonder if people who dislike it have mostly only seen the new series? It balances those kind of camp tributes to the original with some of the best moments of TV.

Avian biology is exactly what this show was missing!

Someone explain the Abby "alarm clock" roast to me. I realise I'm probably missing something very obvious.

@jstaunton: She said she gets stressed by the sound of her alarm clock, which she compared to an alarm. Almost as though alarm clocks are supposed to be alarming.

Series 1 is incredible, series 2 has a few mis-steps but is mostly there, but series 3 is god-awful (haven't watched beyond that).

Funniest shit I've seen in years!!!

Steal My Sunshine is why I finally had to become a premium member.

Episodes like this (read: all of them) is the reason why.

@danryckert I'm sorry, the correct answer was "Furious 7". Furious 7 was the last time you cried at a movie.

Dan is wrong, you earn the red to your cup. Earning the red into your cup allows you to then trade the cup.

yeah because the staff is entirely made up of egg-laying creatures/chickens.

Greedy Dan always shows his face when he has the most shines -_-
