Buy a small punnet of Blueberries - they're alright, mate. If you dont like the texture/taste - throw them in a blender with some yogurt, bananas and milk and they work as a pretty fantastic smoothie filler.

They'd also need to get the old Three Red Lights crew from IGN with Hilary Goldstein. It would be the Ultimate GI Joe show.
I would love this because I totally want to start watching GI Joe after that discussion. And by totally want I mean I'm totally going to start watching it after I finish listening to the podcast.

I love that everyone seems to kinda hate playing Mario Party except for Dan.

The hate for LOTR is just disheartening. Then again I fucking hate Star Wars and Star Trek and almost all sic-fi in general. The only sci-fi worlds I have ever liked is Halo, Gears and now Destiny. Bungie and Epic just seem to know how to put together a sic-fi world that isn't just stupid to me.

You need to check out some more sci-fi bruh, Gears is some of the most generic sci-fi I've ever seen or heard, but I agree that Halo is great (Destiny not so much.)

I just have no interest in it. Space lasers and aliens are just not enjoyable to me. I have no clue why I like fantasy so much, but when it comes to sic-fi I just cannot stand it. There is one universe I did forget to mention that is awesome when it comes to sci-fi and that is Warhammer 40k, the amount of lore alone is fascinating and all the races are interesting.

I forgot about Warhammer, that is a really good and unique universe.

That is an incredibly narrow view of "science fiction."

That's like 75% of halo though.

So why isn't Jason in QLs and the podcast?

To be fair on njean, the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy is one of the greatest sci fi books written and it did feature a lot of aliens.
Not a lot of space lasers though.

Also Star Wars is literally a fantasy series that just happens to take place on a bunch of planets and the swords and arrows look and sound like lasers instead of being made of wood and metal

Exactly what I thought. My memories of the show are very hazy. Like Brad I was extremely confused by Sgt. Slaughter's cross-media presence.
he is a video editor / producer only, like Drew was in the first few years
Wow. Just wow.
I'm not big into sci-fi either but Halo, Gears and Destiny have 3 of the stupidest dude-bro stories I have ever experienced, in any medium. (Halo is slightly better than the other two, but it's still stupid)
I'm pretty sure Warhammer contains 'Aliens' and 'space lasers'.
Just sounds like you've made a decision on something even though you have 0 clue about what you dislike.

Speaking of sci fi and Hasbro toy cartoons, I started watching G1 Transformers in Netflix.
So far it appears to be the developing story of two bosses trying to keep their hopelessly stupid and incompetent employees under control. Sometimes this backfires when said bosses initiate idiotic projects of their own, like authorizing the construction of dinosaur robots with small brains, or building an incredibly powerful mounted laser that has a range of about 100 feet and is stuck in the Andes mountains.

Just wait when a young manager accidentaly kills one of the bosses and is promoted while the other boss becomes senile.
It seems to be Dan's goal at least, so we'll see! He might've used up all his goodwill with this 50 round game though, haha.

Needs the Brazzers logo.
There needs to be a prize for the Giant Bomb Mario Party Champion.

Subete no aware
I think the only saving grace is that he is self-aware. Imagine if he was steadfast on opinions on things because he assumed he was naturally right all the time.
That said, he's a dude who eats off of paper plates because he doesn't want to do dishes. I mean... holy shit. lol

Yeah, stuff has really picked up since him and Jason started. #thirdgoldenage
When I didn't have a dishwasher I did this all the time. Hand washing dishes suuuuucks.

No, it takes maybe 30 seconds... Soap water sponge dry done.
Also regarding Dan, listening to bombcasts has turned into a game of how long until he reveals something ridiculous about himself. No salad, cooking egg shells, shaving dry...
I use one of those sponge things with the soap in the handle and just give it a scrub, rinse, put it on drying rack, takes like 10 seconds tops. It's pretty good.
But yes, Dan is making me enjoy podcasts a lot more, every time I learn something so profoundly interesting about him. Although with what I know about him thus far, I found it hard to believe him when he said that he was in the gifted programs all through school. No offence, but he did try to cook eggshells.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I did that in most of my five years as a student
I still do that as a student
My real plates only come out if I have to impress somebody which

If I wasn't in a relationship right now, I'd still do it. Fuck doing dishes.
Also, regarding LOTR, I think the movies are better than the book. Tolkien is amazing at world building, but I never really liked his style of writing. But that's probably not the most popular opinion.
I'm 25 and I've never eaten a salad. Lettuce is disgusting. Raw tomatoes are disgusting. Cucumbers are disgusting. Everything that defines a salad besides cheese, croutons, and dressing is fucking disgusting.
Nah man, it's great!
We are on the middle of a huge drought here in California. Doing unnecessary dishes wastes water.
