sclpls Posted February 5, 2014 Oh right, that was the episode they all claimed it was terrible and ruined for talking about a topic for 90 straight seconds. If I'm thinking of the right episode, I'm pretty sure they called it the "worst". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TychoCelchuuu Posted February 5, 2014 You mean that episode where Nick Breckon couldn't be there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stuart Posted February 5, 2014 Nick Breckon was the fart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

subbes Posted February 5, 2014 I think it must have been a later episode because I distinctly recall Sean getting annoyed at a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tegan Posted February 6, 2014 Which episode had Nick start yelling about "ten vitality sensors?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subbes Posted February 7, 2014 That was the one with the nightmarish future of games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hermie Posted February 7, 2014 Yup, episode 31, The Future of Games. (The first episode I listened to! You never forget your first.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tberton Posted February 8, 2014 This is the only thread I can think of to pose this question: should we have a "explaining Idle Thumbs in-jokes" thread? If there was just an influx of new listeners, I would have for them to be confused about wizards, Far Cry 2, Dishonored, Lords and gold game cool blum.

One of the most confusing in fact is "grenade roll down a hill". If I recall, the story behind that phrase is actually never on the podcast.

Twig Posted February 8, 2014 One of the most confusing in fact is "grenade roll down a hill". If I recall, the story behind that phrase is actually never on the podcast. Threw me for a loop It was in one of the live panel recordings they did, which I'm pretty sure is actually on the feed. PAX three years ago, I wanna say? But three years ago is a long time anyway so who even remembers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coods Posted February 8, 2014 If you mean Sean's Farcry story, then he was referring to the joke after they had already said it a bunch on the podcast. The actual origin of the phrase doesnt seem to be anywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted February 8, 2014 Oh you might be right. There was definitely a grenade rolling down a hill in Sean's FC2 story, though, which is as good an origin as any. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
