I've been burning through the episodes since discovering the podcast over the break, amazing stuff.Glitterbomber posted:So, that's what laughing while cringing feels like. I can't think of any audio ever that made me cringe as much as Isfahan's re-telling of a woman's quest to consume eighteen donuts in Seattle.

Fantastic episode. I love it when they start giggling and bantering right off the bat, really gets me into the ridiculousness of it all. Some impressive amounts of fplus singularity too!

Between this and the offbeat marriage episode, it seems that some people can be a tad too defensive about topics they relate to on some level. And that's fine and dandy, but it changes how you're approaching the material. Terrible fanfiction? I'd never write that. Obscure fetish? Nope, I gently caress' em normal. Idiotic questions? I'm fairly smart! Themed wedding / sustaining my passion via contributions? Hmm, it has it's upsides I think. And then that's the ballgame, sympathy for the subject makes it harder to laugh about them. Until you realize the thing has good aspects of course, but the readers have more fun mocking poo poo than playing devil's advocate, so don't worry about it! Or start a competing podcast named "G Flat: Sarcastic things with Perspective".

I'd somehow been unaware of sounding until now, despite it being referred to in past episodes. I assumed it was something bizarre and sexual but the term alone wasn't enough to figure it out. I already miss those innocent halcyon days.

Sexual Aluminum posted:What exactly is the Jimmy Franks Curse (tm)? Just whenever he is on there is horrible sexual content or something? There were a few episodes where they were rotating through various comments or posts per usual and Jimmyfranks just had the worst of the worst by pure chance. Then Lemon would start holding back a piece specifically for Jimmyfranks as a running gag. Now it's a thing. It happened to Boots iirc in the Plushie episode where he kept having to read about people putting fuckholes in the same Care Bear stuffed toy. (Same model I mean, not the same individual toy. Although...)

Woot new ep. Also the Is It Legal is a pretty great intro episode, nothing too gross or perverted, lot of idiots to chuckle at. Is It Normal is a step up a bit, as is Blurt It, but super accessibile. Ditto anything with a Sandra Dee mention.

alcharagia posted:Relistening to the TVTropes episode, I've come to the conclusion that Lemon Screaming from Half-Way Across the Room is my favorite thing in the podcast. Equally great is after Lemon cuts in with hia bottomless magazines piece, Bozarth stays in character to plead "you guys' ll come back to me right???" Improv'ed reactions are the cherry on top. Another great recurring bit is when someone simply interjects with "Nope" when a spelling mistake is overlooked. The fact that it took three tries to land "When fuding goes over we will get more celabraties for the moive" makes it so drat funny.

X-Ray Pecs posted:The part in the Mars episode when someone makes a very loud noise in the middle of a particularly insufferable biography and Lemon asks if they shot themselves is another good one that comes to mind. Ditto Bozarth reading an utterly pointless and contradictory TVTropes definition on Mary Sue characters and ending it with "sooooo gently caress YOU".

Squint posted:There are so many questions about Patrick82. He seems deranged in an almost childlike way (e.g. not knowing that they have x-ray machines at airports, unable to understand the non-audio reasons for wanting a girlfriend), and yet he must have access to the tens of thousands of dollars necessary to have his over-the-top audiophile setup. Where does the money come from? What job does he have where he gets paid six figures a year while having such focused , unhideable crazy? I'm guessing his parents, or other wealthy relative, died and left him a sizable inheritance, and he's never had to earn any other money to satisfy his lust for audio (I'm thinking that the 82 means he's just 32 or so). Considering how askew his world view is, I doubt he spends much money on dinners out or gifts for friends or travelling or anything. Hmm, although he did go abroad when he brought back that massive rock I guess.

Cleretic posted:They've wanted to do a Bitcoin episode for years, I remember stumbling across a post on their Steam group where Lemon talked about the difficulties back in the early days of Bitcoin. There's a lot to cover, it moves very quickly, and at least in the early days Bitcoin sites had a habit of deleting posts after a short period of time. So it's hard to really nail down the material for a Bitcoin episode. Also at least half of the greatest laughs in the YOSPOS thread come from stuff like MtGox and the DPR trial and other stuff that transpired over many months or years. Harder to boil it down to readable bits for the uninitiated I'd think. Best bet would probably be a mix of terrible ideas (assassination contracts, but with bitcoin!), terrible stories (the Brazil one, poo poo that didn't happen.txt stuff like how bitcoin saved a friendship), and hilarious moments of truth or cognitive dissonance (scam stories, people teased me for my evangelizing and I've lost thousands, this unregulated decentralized currency needs consumer protection! !!). It would be about the idiots using bitcoin rather than why bitcoin is terrible, but that's still quite a lot of stuff to gather and sort for a good doc. Hmm, maybe I'll look at putting something together this week, even if it's not read it'll be fun re-reading classic posts.

Let's not be too male-centric by focusing solely on BlurtIt helping men with their sex powerrrr and panic size. It is equally important to assist women in making big breast if they lack access to BOOB POP.

Can't place the episode, prob in the 135-150 range, but one quick exchange goes: *Ridiculist is reading some terrible stuff for a while* "And now....an excerpt from my short story "The Panties"" (paraphrased) Jimmyfranks in the background "Aww, jesus" The way he says it cracks me up every time. Anyone remember which ep it's in?

My favorite thing about the readers is that they each have their own niche and personality which is great for an ensemble podcast. Some do great voices, some do terrible voices in a great way, some know their anime, some know Tim Tebow, some adore dragons and animation, some are easily excited by all things metal, some are easily enraged by all bad fonts, no one can do accents, it's a delightful mix. And when their interests do collide it creates fantastic moments, like two people rushing to land a hexadecimal joke, recurring Blackstreet references, or the occasional joke from Lemon "just for Boots".

Waffleman_ posted:Holy poo poo the stinger of John Kitchin. I think I looped that part at least three times cause I was laughing so hard. Also Kumquat`s coda made me think of one of my favorite aside comments: "I'm Kumquatting through the wars and military section" Legitimately frustrated ridiculists are great, I love the honesty behind the misogynist and Patreon type episodes, the jokes are still good and the true opinions give the podcast some added oomph for me. I get wanting to skip that part when re-listening to an episode, since once you've heard it you've heard it, but disliking it more than that much is odd to me. Passion's a good thing, it's why podcasts like this get made in the first place. kalensc fucked around with this message at 20:22 on Mar 13, 2015 |
