Speculate! I'm gonna say it's wrestling-related.

Edit: Make that $410.

I am going to guess CBSi probably have some dumb energy saving policy banning mini fridges.

I think probably starting some kind of internet protest to right this unjustice where we write emails to CBS management and have a catchy hashtag trending would be better.



If they ban mini fridges maybe there is something real dumb you guys can buy instead.

Buy a 12v mini fridge, and they can power it with an exercise bike

Patrick did one already, and Dan has done an Endurance Run (Super Replay) at his old job. Might feel like they are treading old ground to do it again, but I'd like it! Dan said during that Super Replay that he likes going back to the game every few years though - so maybe.

Red Dead Redemption would be my second choice - as I want Jeff to expand on his hatred of that.

Mortal Kombat might be a good choice just to hear them reminisce, as they both are fond of that.

Considering that they were talking about MK during Sniper Elite QL, there's a high possibility that's the Bombastica. Plus Jeff also really like MK.

Ah, now I see it. That's what was throwing me off.

I really should go back and watch all their Sleeping Dogs stuff at some point. I avoided it back then since I didn't want to get spoiled (beyond knowing it was definitely something I should play), but I only ended up playing through it in the past month or so and now I'm interested to see what they thought of it.

Oh so I saw some complaints of some fridges that they're a little loud.

So, we have to make sure it's cold first and foremost, then small, quiet, nice looking, and funny.

that’s a lot of money for a mini fridge. they’re typically only around 150 bucks.

… maybe the extra can be donated to a charity.

I'm going to take a guess at MK too.

If you enjoyed Sleeping Dogs then you should definitely do this, right now. Don't hesistate for one more second.

Definitely watch their Sleepy Dawgs stuff. All of it.
 
Best thing about Sleeping Dogs stuff on GB is that it did anything but spoil that game for me. If anything it made it even better. When I was looking for things I simply asked: WWVCD?

Yeah, except for with that DLC that takes place on an island and is based on old Hong Kong martial arts movies, they don't really spoil much story stuff in any of the QLs. It's just Vinny fucking around.

this is pretty much all you need to see.

$436 currently. With the fridge being about half that, perhaps people should think of something else to go inside it that Rorie could use as a double surprise. Because I don't think $200 worth of magnets is a good idea. I'm going to bed now (I sleep in the afternoons). So I'll see how things stand in seven hours or so.

If it's that much left over, why not throw in something practical then? He loves Android right, what about one of those new Google watches?
 
er, i think the fridge is a fun 'joke gift' with great practicality. but I don't think we should be buying him tech.

I'm all for donating the rest to a puppy charity.

An actual trash can with an Apple logo on it.
 
Looks like there's a so-called "Freedom Stream 2014" coming up on Giant Bomb in about 35 minutes.

Are they going to be testing more democracy during a stream once more?
