Same. And stick art I guess.

Edit: When Marvel Heroes started they put a bunch of game money codes in with video cards or something that no one wanted so everyone was selling them super cheap/giving them away. I think I spent like $100-150 on like $1500 worth of game money.

I see one on eBay that sold recently for $55. I think I paid $40 for it from a goon on SA-Mart, and $80 is ten more than most of the higher sold listings I'm seeing.

I spent $300 on Bloodstained, all hail king idiot (I mean I don't feel disappointed in what's been shown but I'm not going to pretend throwing $300 at a kickstarter was a wise financial decision).

It's a ruse. Dan does this poo poo on purpose and the Beast crew is increasingly tired of it.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
I imagine that spending any amount of time with Dan Ryckert is like spending the night at a friend's house where they have cool nerd toys and if fun to hang out with, but in the morning they put water in their cereal instead of milk. Not because he's lactose intolerant but because he either has never heard of people putting milk on their cereal or thinks that it's gross. Like, off-kilter on a primal level.

Actually he has talked about finding cereal milk gross and pouring it down the drain when he's done eating

And he pours the water in first, and then the cereal.

When I listen to the Bombcast I typically have to scrub through 20-30 minutes of DotA talk because it's BORING AS gently caress TO LISTEN TO.


I miss him so much and still think about the podcast they did immediately after he died. I think it's Vinny who has the last words on that one and he says "He would have made a great dad" and you can feel everyone in the room just break down and even now it still makes me tear up thinking about it.

Dan Ryckert can be cool sometimes but acts autistic as gently caress at other times which is made annoying g by the fact that it's very likely he's acting that just because it amuses him

Watching the full Mario Party 1 video gives you both the best and worst of Dan Ryckert

Yeah I refrigerate mine because otherwise the oil separates and eventually you just end up with a solid block of peanut rock by the time you get to the bottom of the jar.
