RetroforceGO! not recording this week, don't tell Chad on us photo

Okay, so here's the thing, see. Chad, Dyson and Colette are partying it up in Miami for the Dtoid 3-year anniversary, and have left Stella and me behind because they don't love us. That would be okay, except that Chad left his Jeep parked in the driveway behind the podcast, and I can't get it out until he comes back.

I tried budging it a little at a time, but I don't think I can pull the show out of that spot without scratching it. Chad didn't leave me a set of keys, so I cut open the plastic windows on that thing with a hobby knife to try and get in there to release the parking brake, but then the alarm started going off and well ... I guess it must've caused a short somewhere in the electrical system because now it's on fire. Stella tried to put it out, but what she thought was a big drum of water was actually the sake I'd been homebrewing and uh ... yeah, it's not pretty out there. 

So there's no show this week, but if you're in the Baltimore area and want to stop to pick up some beer on your way over, we'll be having a barbecue at my place until tomorrow. Or the next day. Or whenever Chad's Jeep fire goes out.

You could've yanked out the fuse underneath the steering wheel to disable the alarm! But I guess it's too late for that now huh.

Hey Topher, how about some Dan on Dan action later?

I'd listen to a Topher and Stella podcast. You could call the episode "Obscure Games You've Never Played But Will Love if You Try", then drop some serious knowledge on us. I'd take notes.

I will buy puzzle fighter if I can actually play people on line.

Topher will you play puzzle fighter with me? I won't disconnect and I'll use dan so you can destroy me.

I wouldn't play Topher in Puzzle Fighter. I saw him beat up the computer on expert, then crush all human challengers who played him.

All while playing with a puppy. No lie.

pfffft! All you people in Miami are going to be missing out on my pie featured at the DToid Anniversairy party, Los Angeles edition.

Oh well, I'm going to try to finish Guadia Quest for reals in Retro Game Challenge (not just seeing the credits, finishing the damn game).

You guys should do an episode all on Retro Game Challenge, maybe if the sequel ever comes out here. I think a detailed discussion is in order.

Feh... you all partying it up at your narps will miss my anniversary party, which will consist of me making and consuming skittles vodka, then sitting at either my PC or 360 and crying because everyone else is having fun and I live in butt-fuck nowhere. :D

In related news... there's a "game" called The Graveyard.

Here's the trailer:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73l1VfzeRYY

From what I gather, you play as an old lady who is hiding from Chad Concelmo. The video doesn't show it... but it's just got to be in there. He's behind a tombstone just waiting to suckerpunch her!

Bah, just noticed I made some comments while signed onto the wrong account, even though I'm sure the image of anonymous cblog-recapper drinking and crying alone is funny, I'll repeat it:

Wow, that completely rad post almost makes up for there not being a show this week.

You should just do the show yourself, Topher. You can play the part of Collette and Stella can play Chad and Dyson. And then you can take turns acting like a douche in place of Anthony.

I vote for a week with just Topher and Stella, it might turn out to be the best show in a long time if that happens.
