Hey friends, circumstances have conspired such that I find myself alone in Virgil's apartment (don't ask why), time to start the roasting and pranking..— Will🎄Menaker (@willmenaker) December 12, 2017

I do have to say my favorite part of last night was Virgil openly speculating what the symptoms of toxoplasmosis are in human, as Matt would surely get it from touching cat fæces(provided by Will’s newly acquired tuxedo cat, Marty)

What's the origin of the basement Gamecube picture?

i dont know but ive seen it for years its for sure a gaming meme

the flow of conversation in this podcast feels very unnatural to me. @midnight was a terrible show that was obviously written, and this was highlighted by the question and answer format. comments in this show feel written in spite of them talking over each other. very happy to learn about gamecube dungeon, however.
― crocus bulbotuber (Sufjan Grafton), Thursday, 14 December 2017 05:47 (six years ago) link
unlike @midnight, the conversation is at least hilarious at times

Sometimes they reuse their own jokes from twitter, which might account for some of the written feeling.

Folks, the Menaker/Garland beef is flowering on Twitter and if you take amusement in this sort of thing in any way, it's beautiful.

amber's point way back when the first GAME THEORY thread happened about Garland saying he was drinking craft beer and on iv adderall (?) has stuck with me- paraphrasing "dude you're just drunk and fucked up on drugs, don't make it sound classy"

This is a lie. Amber never shares her coke. https://t.co/pQ9m2UFOBm— Angela Nagle (@AngNagle) December 24, 2017

amber was on the most recent cum town ep yammering about doing coke with the hosts so that thread seems... at least partially plausible?
― insomniac in the brainomniac (bizarro gazzara), Sunday, 24 December 2017 22:36 (six years ago) link
which part- amber doing coke with her roommates or never sharing hers? they all talk about doing coke a lot. nick, adam, stav, and amber. i think it's hilarious that nick is "sober" but just does a ton of coke instead. bums me out, blow is the worst drug in every way. also if you dig into that quoted tweet thread there's some really disingenuous stuff about amber "enabling" nick, as if he needs to be coerced into doing cocaine.

Street Fight posted a three year-old lost episode with Will talking about Sons of Anarchy, it's really good. I think I'd like their show a lot more if they had someone to keep them on track or keep it to one or two issues, episodes just bounce around too much.
― louise ck (milo z), Monday, 25 December 2017 00:38 (six years ago) link
I don't know how you guys can listen to Cumtown. I've never managed to get past a couple of minutes they're seemingly just the most awful people.
re Cumtown i didn't like it much at first but it grew on me. like i can 'get' the ironic riffing on race & jews & uh intellectual disabilities, but most of the gay "jokes" just seem dumb and unfunny, in the way a shitty 13 year old idiot yelling "fag" is dumb and unfunny. and the Adam bashing just kind of gets boring after a while. lots of times there's not even really a joke there. i saw em live last month at their "funny moms" show and it was indeed very funny. they're actually pretty good comics and managed more or less to avoid the cartoonishly ott vulgarity and bleak nihilism often exhibited on the pod.
that said it's def not for everyone and i certainly can't blame folks for absolutely loathing them/ it.

yeah i can get this. Street Fight boys were fun and very much in their element the one time i saw them live, prob better than on the pod (which i actually do like and listen to fairly regularly). also Bryan is Good At Twitter.

just listened to Champagne Sharks CS55, about the housing/banking crash and ensuing bailout and what that has done to minority communities (including how it drove voter disenfranchisement). wow, it was just devastating. it really highlights how bullshit the whole "you can't talk about class" argument is.
