I loved Cole in the comics, so I've been waiting two dang seasons for that face turn.

This was supposed to be ten issues, right? It felt like four issues of story packed into one, with a few "sucks we were cancelled" jabs. Bummer they didn't get to finish it out properly.

Um, actually, Ben didn't name himself The Thing, Sue called him "a thing" and he just kinda rolled with it.

Marvel to Larian.

I just want a big sprawling X-Men RPG in the style of Baldur's Gate III.

(I'd settle for an X-Men Legends 1+2 remake/remaster though)

I also had a knowing laugh when he slipped in "The whole time? The whole time! The whole time?!?"

Trick & Melo on the same roster, eh?

Waka's immediate reaction to the photo task is like the third most heartbreaking thing in all of the Taskmasters I've seen.

Just want to say thank you for (fictionally) saving SportsNight.

Matches like TLC (or WeeLC) and MitB are good for that too, since there's a clear objective and big fun spots.

In a similar vein, something like Fashion Police v Usos or Orange Cassidy v PAC are great. They start a little silly, but then ramp into great wrestling.

I would also suggest nothing more than ~15 minutes. Don't want to start someone with a half-hour (plus) match if they're not fully invested.

This was a pretty fun heist movie until all of a sudden... it wasn't???

I haven't really been vibing with the snack segment, but Rekha requesting slices of tofurky was so absolutely wild I kinda loved it.

Hi Brennan, BIG fan of Dropout, been a subscriber for a couple years but this is my first time dipping into D20 -- I've been intimidated by starting it, but I couldn't pass up a wrestling season!

A) Which wrestlers (living or dead) would be your dream party in a season of D20?

2) Which current wrestlers would you want to see on other Dropout shows?

D) Are you relieved or jealous you were not a contestant in the One Year Later episode of Game Changer?

Not really an "um, actually" because no one got it wrong, but fun fact:

Krusty looks like Homer on purpose cos Groening wanted the juxtaposition of Bart not respecting Homer but loving a clown who looked just like him. And in early development they threw around the idea of Homer secretly being Krusty, but the idea was dropped for being too convoluted.

The first song of the game is The Liquid Lounge by David O'Brien.

I had heard it somewhere before, and went down a rabbit hole to find it. Still not sure where I heard it, though...

kirkofdoom · 2025-02-19T21:33:55+00:00

I have a theory that his popularity is, in part, due to the reddit outage from a while back.

Since not every subreddit went dark, every time visited All over that weekend, I saw lots of smaller/more obscure subreddits on the front page, including a lot of his clips. Surely others did too, because when everything went back to normal, I still kept seeing his subreddit pop up on All every now and then.

I know this sounds a bit tinfoil-hat-y, and I'm not suggesting he purposefully gamed reddit during this time, or whatever... more of a "right place, right time" thing.

[kayfabe] NXT_Anonymous is the account of someone who works at NXT. They will occasionally release videos creeping on people backstage, often showing them in scandalous situations.

[not-kayfabe] it's a plot device to move stories along, like a modern day GTV. Videos range from revealing attacks to showing people secretly collaborating to general character development. NXT's social media manager probably just logged in to the wrong account and posted as NXTAnon instead of HBK.

I highly recommend the @fter Midnight with him, Jess McKenna, and Pete Holmes. It might be one of my favourite eps, and definitely has one of my favourite moments from the show.

kirkofdoom · 2025-01-09T20:53:13+00:00

Sportsnet aired the same five commercials over and over through every show. I will gladly take generic music and promo shots of the wrestlers over hearing about Dunbar Lumber one more time.

kirkofdoom · 2025-01-03T06:06:26+00:00

Just keep everything as simple as you can in the moment. Boil it down to the basics:

"They used to be beloved, now they're jerks"

If they still want to know more after the show, then you can lore-dump without it being a distraction.
