Episode 155 - Boom 'Em Up

Everyone, it’s time to gather ‘round for another special Podcast! Since last you joined us, Tim has been called to the European Invitational for Non-professional Destiny players and joins us live from Italy. Don’t count out Newly broken Tab though, because he’s been entered to fight in a local Kickboxing fight against an Illegally-attained Liger! Lastly, our sound guy(you know his name) is starting a new path in life as a Homeopathic Information/Medicine Salesman, focusing on his home-grown Eucalyptus Leaf serums. For us here on the podcast, life is looking up, so join us as we discuss:

* Boomers
* Brand Loyalty
* The Laws That Will Save Us
* The Death of the Arcade

Boomers! Who can live with ‘em and who can live without ‘em? The answer is no one and everyone, in that order. Whether it’s their selfish nature, their hypocrisy, or their general lack of foresight, one thing were can all agree on is how hilarious it is that they hate this new phrase. MILLENIALS ARE TOO SOFT, but when we put “ok, “ in front of your name, you get all pissy. At least you can afford your own health care, and you better because you’re going to need it in the next ten years as the bulk of you start to drop off the face of this planet you hate.

I’m a Pepsi man. I’m a Coke man. GRRRR I HATE YOU. WE MUST FIGHT! How ‘bout no? Why are you representing a multi-billion dollar company? Why are they better than the other guy? Everything you own is made in the cheapest way possible, by the cheapest-to-pay people possible, by a company that could not care less who you are. You found a brand of thing you like? good. Just don’t go making them a part of your being.

Jaywalking is illegal, but everyone does it. Whaling is illegal in Oklahoma and no one is doing it, so the law must be working, right? Wrong. I’m sure if we had whales, they’re’d be rednecks in camp throwing dynamite into every river. Do you think Ed Gein ever thought to himself “I shouldn’t kill this lady and turn her face into a lamp, THAT’S ILLEGAL”? I’m gonna guess no.

Ah, the days of the arcade. Flashing lights, the cacophony of HADOUKENs and the clanging of tokens into machines. Throw in some 90s rock radio and you got yourself a bitchin’ hang out. Whether after school at the mall, or just after dinner at the pizza parlor, the arcade was many a young child’s getaway from all the suck-age of life. One day you’ll get enough tickets for that Dreamcast, but for now, a round of Capcom vs. SNK 2 will have to do.
