Patrick always had a talent for story titles
I try to jump into other threads from time to time, but I always feel intimidated. GiantBombGAF feels very homey to me.
may the first be with you ha ha did i do that right?
Yeah, I'm not too heavy of a poster, but I post mostly in here and sometimes in other threads and it's always weird when I see other GAFduders in random threads that I post. It's like I forget that we're all part of this grander site, and it's a nice treat to see other GB fans outside of home. I feel compelled to have a duder's back if they're having a hard time in any given thread as well. I've definitely cut back on posting at the giantbomb.com forums since coming here too.
Mega64 does this on twitch 24/7 (called Mega64 TV) and it's pretty cool, GB should totally do that.
Same here. You've got two years on me though, I started in 2008 when Giant Bomb was invented. Honestly the site that I've most consistently visited in my entire life. It's hard to remember what my use for the internet was before 2008. I'll even go through phases when I'm sick of playing video games for a long while and yet I'll still consume all GB content. It's like ingrained in my natural routine so matter where I am in life.
I'll post occasionally in other threads but this is the only one I regularly post in.

I remember using the PSP to download and listen to episodes of the Hotspot.
Good times.
Good times.
Back when people were just posting from a basement. Good times!

I've listened to all the GOTYs from inception to 2014 this past week (don't worry, it's because I'm crazy) and 2014 strikes me as a very acrimonious series of podcasts.
I suspect it's mostly because 2014 was a pretty shit year for a lot of prominent games and franchises. It was simultaneously a year where the promise of the next gen sort of fell flat, where games were released with baffling and hideous bugs and problems, and where a ton of promising stuff got delayed/removed.
I did that for both the Hotspot and 1up's shows.
It's cool because you can also imagine it being the name of a Ninja Turtles villain or something.

on the 8-23-2011 podcast, Ryan admits that he has dipped pizza right into nacho cheese.
Fuck, a Ryan and Dan tandem would've been unstoppable.

No. You're wrong. I don't believe you. You have manipulated time to make me feel old. Heathen! Heretic! Horstachio!

Pizza and nacho cheese doesn't come anywhere near the crimes against humanity that Dan committed.
not really

But would pizza be better with nacho cheese?
Didn't Ryan once describe Saints Row the Third as like looking into Dan Ryckert's mind?
Bad pizza probably would.

he sure did, said it in one of the 2011 podcasts. I've been relistening to them at work, all the way back from the beginning.
Vinny spent like half of 2011 playing Witcher games, haha

Yes, but only if the pizza had bad toppings.
Yeah so that leads me to believe they interacted a few times. I mean I think they were on a few E3 Bombcasts together.
Seems like Ryan stared into the Ryckert and the Ryckert stared back.
As for Vinny, there are worse ways to spend a 2011.
I am always weirded out by the increasingly fast passage of time.
Youse a young'un! I'm now trying to imagine what my life would have been like if Giant Bomb existed when I was a teenager. You know I might have even disliked the site if I was a teenager, I think I would have been sensitive to the jaded opinions on things that I like, something that I stopped giving a shit about in my 20s. I was too into JRPGs and that ilk back then as well, so GB wouldn't have even been on my radar. GB definitely came around at the perfect spot in my life after my tastes and interests evolved from all that.
What if we just make bad pizza altogether, but use nacho cheese instead of tomato sauce?

If you haven't dipped french fries in mayonnaise you haven't lived.

I would actually be into this.
It's the only way.
That shit is so overrated.
I'll do a mayo/ketchup mixture. Straight up mayo, nope
Counter point: you'll probably live longer if you don't dip your french fries in mayonnaise.

Make your own mayo man. Easiest thing to do.

Someone needs to ask dan if he's had a Wendy's Baconator before because, brah, it's got mayo.
I don't like mayo myself, its texture is gross and i hate how it tastes and what it does to other foods.
but i really like baconators
so i'm a torn man.

Just checked their site and apparently it's no longer offered. Little Caesar's is going hard after that taco bell stoner market. The replacement:
