I've lived in and around San Antonio for the past three years and I promise you there is nothing special about Whataburger. Dan was just hung over.

I never played Okami... I should probably play it someday.... I've heard that it had a really really slow start though.

The start is slow but the bigger problem is that it goes on too long.

Bleh I'll stick to Zelda then.

I'm 3/4 way through Wind Waker HD... First time I play it since the original release on gamecube.

It's been great so far except the Earth Temple that I'm going through right now. I fucking hate games that forces you to hand hold an AI character through a part of the game...ugh.

Uh, "The start is slow and everything goes on way too long" is a staple of Zelda.

okami has many of the same problems that everyone rips on modern 3D zeldas for, but waaaaay worse (the intro and text speed is just astoundingly slow, and issun's level of repetitive dialogue and puzzle spoiling is basically the stereotype about Fi from Skyward Sword but not exaggerated) and with some crazy problems of its own (the pacing is bizarre, the story has no idea what the fuck it wants to be outside of just a random pastiche of mixed-up japanese mythology, the load times on the PS2 version are insane, the boss fight repeating is just over the top, etc.)

it's a good game, but people give a lot of it a huge pass based on the art style, clover pedigree, and the "underdog" comparison to zelda

whatburger is way above mcdonalds or BK quality, but below five guys or most restaurant burgers. I agree with the comment about for 4 bucks its great though

Flat pack furniture is great. Especially Ikea. It is like Lego for adults, plus you get something useful at the end of it.

Dan's Twitter is hilarious.

If he finds Jeff and Dave Lang, I hope Lang's reaction to his Skynyrd nonsense is recorded somewhere.

I don't know if anyone has posted it yet but I finished Saints Row Gat out of Hell and they used the same music for the final boss fight as Giant Bomb did for the TNT intro.

I don't understand how There Will Be Blood ended up on this list. Doesn't seem like a Dan movie.

Dan has seen There will Be Blood, loved it enough to place it on a list.

THe fuck. I literally can not envision him sitting still for that movie
