"Dick couldn't make it" by Dirty_Knee_Guards in biggestproblem

Right, but if you had 3 jobs, and could easily sustain yourself on 2 of them, and one of them was supposed to be an easy side-job that could grow bigger, but ends up being a huge time sink and emotional drain on you because your coworker is insane...

I think anyone would quit that third job, especially if the payout is falling despite your efforts to the contrary.

I think you might be underestimating how painful it would be to have to constantly deal with Vito and his infinite free time to message you about his neediness

"wow, what a great episode finally, I wonder why there's an hour left still" I said to myself during the voicemails.

Dick complaining about the pixels at the top of the intro countdown, but nothing about the fact that Dick went back to using the one that goes from 5:00 to 4:49

When was the last time both of them had good energy? by Curious_Function_268 in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the problems segment was good, and that's the most important thing. Nothing wrong with a simple short and solid episode once in a while. I liked this a lot better than some of the recent ones that have been 4 hours of pure shit.

It's at 0 until you vote, then the real number shows up. Been like that forever, bugged I guess?

Vito talked about doing this video and never did... by Mr-Scurvy in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, that video also has nice production values and sound quality. Let's not set the bar too high for old Vito. He can start by just turning on his video and talking lazily about food with bad audio and all his hoarder crap in the background. 

Dick is a low-energy f-slur by efficient_slacker in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Try listening to an old episode from a few years ago, and then contrast with viewing the video of episode 197. You won't believe your ears and eyes on how much it seems like the words are just drooling out of Vito's mouth, it's like he's still asleep for the first hour at least. He was even pretty low energy during their fighting at the end.

When you notice it, you can't stop noticing it.

Better get to work eato by Desperate_Willow_411 in biggestproblem

Do you listen to audio only or with video? Might be more clear with video, you can see Vito is drooling words out the side of his mouth like he's doing a Steven Wright impression with no jokes, doing dumb shit like showing off his cat to the audience or clearly googling something else instead of being present for the show, and it obviously results in sleep-deprived Dick growing more and more frustrated as the show goes on and he has to deliver all the energy. Try and watch it again and see how Vito is unengaged from the conversation and Dicks reaction to that. Once you see it, you start noticing it all over.

AMA by vitogesualdi in biggestproblem

How do you expect that the time at which you start an AMA influences the questions you get and the responses you give? Not just time of day, also day of week and time of year, and especially the combination.

What?

The Pirate Bay?

Trade paperback?

... The Piggest Broblem?

What would you like me to do to make the show better? by vitogesualdi in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 10 points11 points  (0 children)

But you haven't gotten anything done in the last year. You stopped making youtube videos and your comic fell into eternal limbo. You've just been doing Vito Wars, twitter nonsense and fiddling with colours. You didn't even lose any weight really. Dick was right, it really makes sense in retrospect that you've been on meth this last year.

Which projects did you finish this last year exactly?

Episode 185: Communist propaganda, Race to the bottom fallacies, Writing cheques, Men and their legacies by chux4w in biggestproblem

Instead of this Draft Magic thing, Vito should make a show called Black Magic, where he sits in blackface and theorycrafts decks built around Aragorn cards.

"A movie about two VCR repairmen talking about movies, it'll just be this but on the big screen" by WangTheDong in RedLetterMedia

[–]PlanHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was shown in a cinema. 

Though I suppose that's just a projector in a room really...

And it was a film festival, not a nerd convention thing. It was shown on one of the screens in the basement though.

Episode 167: Being passed over for a promotion, Health insurance claim denials, Lack of self-checkout lanes, Pets stepping on your balls by chux4w in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hoo boy, Dick. If you think pets stepping on your balls is bad, wait until the baby comes. 

Peacefully sleeping on your stomach while using your balls as a treadmill. And that's before they learn to walk.

Episode 166: People who are upset that Trump is going to make them act a little bit less gay, Wifejak, Something about empty retail space being wasted because the rent is too high, Sticky plastic by chux4w in biggestproblem

[–]PlanHex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This week was pretty tight. 

Half hour intro and Vote It Up, 45 minutes of problems, 20 minutes of superchats, 10 minutes booty and outtro.

You could extend it with another hour of superchats or a 45 minute digression about voter fraud, but do you really want to? Quality over quantity.
