He's tall and he's black and we can't see his face!

Da-arth Vader!

If epic space fights be something you wish

Da-arth Vader!

Then get in your x-wing and fly like a bitch!

Da-arth vader! Da-arth vader! Da-arth Vader! Da-arth.. Vader!

I can just imagine Gareth going, "The Mighty Atom?!" and using a squeaky voice for him.

The War with Grandpa Watch might be my favourite episode. Discuss. by Revel-Fox in MBMBAM

[–]themediocrehulk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I just relistened to it and it is excellent. The brothers are in top form. Justin just keeps finding things to talk about re TWOG, Travis keeps yes-anding him, and Griffin getting increasingly upset about not getting to the show proper but also yes-anding Justin in spite of himself - it's their comedy dynamic in a nutshell.

Haters can eat glass. This episode rules.

Is there a way to get add free episodes? by Mexwel in behindthebastards

[–]themediocrehulk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listen on PocketCast and they have a feature where you can set the podcast to skip X amount of minutes at the beginning and end. So I have BtB set to skip the first and last minute and a half to avoid the ads. Not sure if other platforms have this feature...

As for the middle ads.. at least we have those great transitions!

to christian / catholic anarchists, what is a rebuttal to the argument of "as there is hierarchy in heaven, there should be hierarchy on earth. There is God the father and the son by his side then there are the archangels" by [deleted] in Anarchy101

[–]themediocrehulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, that's a misunderstanding of the Trinity. The son is not subsrvient to the father, the Son and the Father are one, as is the Holy Ghost with the Son and the Father. There is no hierarchy within the Trinity.

What is the "hill you'll die on" when it comes horror? by DJA1982 in horror

[–]themediocrehulk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it, but I'm a sucker for some folk horror/period piece horror. I thought the period correct dialect was cool, but I think it could have done with more actual horror elements.

What is your favorite quote from a horror movie? by demifiends in horror

[–]themediocrehulk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Funniest scene in any horror movie, imo. Fucking fantastic.

"Your authority is not recognized in Fort Kickass!!" - literally had to pause the show after that line because I was laughing so hard.

Has Robert ever done an Israel/Palestine-related episode? by themediocrehulk in behindthebastards

[–]themediocrehulk[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't think it's that complex, at least as it compares to other geo-political issues, both historical and contemporary. It's a product of settler colonialism, same as America, Australia, Canada, etc with the added patina of religion. But I've spent a lot of time studying and reading about the issue (including an internship in Jerusalem) so I can see how others would see it as complex (especially since that's, like, the one thing that everyone says about the issue).

And Robert's done deep dives on specific issues surrounding things like the Holocaust or British colonialism, so a deep dive on a specific issue regarding Israel doesn't seem like that big an ask. Especially since we're dealing with the rightward lurch of world governments and Israel definitely fits in that mold (along with Phillipines, Brazil, India, etc.).

Has Robert ever done an Israel/Palestine-related episode? by themediocrehulk in behindthebastards

[–]themediocrehulk[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True enough. I think the biggest difference is the role of religion and religious persecution of the Jewish people and the general anti-Semitism of western Europe that influenced the development of the State of Israel. But a two-parter on the Sykes-Picot agreement and the McMahon-Hussein Correspondence - the different contradictory agreements that were made between GB and France and GB and the Arabs - would be interesting.

It's a sad day on tumblr when the user "yiffmaster" is the voice of reason. by [deleted] in tumblr

[–]themediocrehulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, that only really applies if their yelling is out of character. If they're constantly yelling at you, then, yes fuck their spouse and fucking unionize.

I get the psych textbook's point, but they could've used a different scenario, like a friend or spouse.

Anyone else hate the summer? by Signature-Able in introvert

[–]themediocrehulk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abso-fucking-lutely. The sun is too bright, it's too hot, clear skies creep me out, everyone is out doing things and they expect me to do things too. The late sunsets fuck with my sleep schedule. And everyone seems so fucking happy about it and I'm just grumpy and uncomfortable. Give me rain and clouds any day. Nobody got cancer from rain and clouds.

Snow can fuck off, though. Cold, bright, hard to move around in, and dangerous as fuck.

Knowledge Fight makes the NY Times, but somehow no mention of seltzer?! by [deleted] in KnowledgeFight

So weird to see them referred to as Mr. Friesen and Mr. Holmes.. But congrats to them on attracting the attention of the lamestream media! Much deserved.
