Did not expect a story about Vampire the Masquerade on here. I was piecing it together as it went, but it all came together when she gave a spot on description of the Camarilla, Sabbat, and Anarchs
Firstly Erin is awesome love seeing her here too. Secondly as an autistic person I support the first person saying it’s ableist about the eggs stuff despite eggs being a massive sensory ick for me and love that for her lol.
As a decently experienced LARPer myself, my advice regarding feeling like you didn't make an impact the first time you attended is normal. If you wanna feel memorable, keep going. Many such groups exist where it's something of a revolving door of new players. The first time I went to the one I've been a member of for 7 years, there were five total newbies. Only two of us stayed beyond that first event, and that's not a knock at the quality of the event itself. People have their own expectations of what it'll be like and, often times, it's not what they thought it would be. Because of this, most established members will interact with but not retain the memory of new players. Just too many people to keep track of when you also have to remember all of the other established players. The only time new players stand out is when they really screw up or do something very bad.
Additional point: The one I participate in is a light contact combat LARP. They're all different, though, but much of the social aspects are the same. The same sorts of people are drawn to such things, meaning the social dynamics are often similar. In mine, we have guilds. Mine, which fell apart after the leadership and many of the long standing members moved away for various reasons, was a mercenary guild. Another is made up of mages that spend their time hanging out in a library. Another is another mercenary guild that popped up when mine fell apart, but it's actually just a pyramid scheme with the intention of stealing every newbie's starting cash. The final one is more like a clan of barbarians. Each one attracts a different crowd. Aside from falling for a very obvious scam, associate with whomever you enjoy the company of the most. It'll feel a lot more natural for your character to grow and become reflective of the company one keeps rather than predetermining their destiny and trying to make them fit that as time goes on. My character, Le-Roy "The Dash Ain't Silent" Boulder-Mover, started off as a human with a basic tank build. I love making and playing tanks in tabletop games, as I have always made a better wall than a window. However, I'm not a very big guy and some folks there are much bigger than me, so I was easy to literally push around. After spending some time exploring the system and finding what I actually enjoyed doing, I came back as a troll healer wielding a staff. After finally finding my niche and enjoying it, one of the longest standing members walks up to me after combat and says, "Man, I absolutely love fighting you." "Really? Why's that, cause I hate fighting you." "You're really good! You're really enjoyable to fight cause you make me work for it." "Really? Cause that's the exact same reason why I hate fighting against you. You make me work so much harder than anyone else here and it is EXHAUSTING."
can confirm Erin is actually the most qualified for perfect person based on her Instagram stories she’s just a girl just like me and therefore I feel even before watching this she’s gonna have the realest answers fr
A groups of vampires in most lore I'm aware of (which would be D&D and Anne Rice) is in fact called a coven I do not remember what they were called in wwdits but it moghtve also been a coven Edit: i looked it up and apparently theyre also covens in twilight 👍
In Vampire the Masquerade, the game I think Bella was talking about, small groups of vampires are called Coteries, and the different types of Vampires are called Clans.
i know they already appeared in one episode together when the plog went to the smosh office, but i need a perfect person episode with both rainie and erin.
your body just decides and then schedules itself to push the poops around for you to poop at 9- if you want to change it then yes, maybe try eating a little later (may cause you poop later like 11 instead of AM) & sit on the toilet, don’t strain, just sit, 30mins - 1hr after the coffee (advice for constipation, the rule is normally 30mins after a meal)
I feel EXACTLY the same as Miles about the eggs and have clowned a friend of mine for boiling them in batches and then keeping them to eat plain throughout the day.
Perfect Person tryin to collect Smosh like infinity stones
Miles' reaction to the hard boiled eggs after he just participated in a hard boiled egg challenge on The TryPod killed me hahaha
Why wouldn't you do relish?!
Maybe Rainie snuck over to the Smosh office and made them a whole batch as well lol
Miles really dropped the ball on saying “first of all… ‘Bella, where the hell you been loca?’”
Ugh for real
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
ERIN DOUGAL ON PERFECT PERSON?? every time a smosh cast/crew member is on perfect person an angel gets it’s wings
another smosh cast/crew has hit the perfect person podcast
the smosh office having an emmet cullen bag of eggs is so funny
Miles
❌ 1950's societal conventions
✅ 1950's ✨f a s h i o n✨
my slow realization that that isn’t someone who looks like erin in the thumbnail, but IS erin dougal is like finding a $100 bill on the ground
Did not expect a story about Vampire the Masquerade on here. I was piecing it together as it went, but it all came together when she gave a spot on description of the Camarilla, Sabbat, and Anarchs
Right? My squinting intensified slowly as the pieces were falling into place 😂
DOUGAL??? There's a certain demographic of people (me) that this episode is huge for
Same!
Erin is doing a podcast run recently and I am here for it! I love our gen z hot mess queen ❤
Bella's call is essentially a subplot of a What We Do in the Shadows episode
We truly need a compilation of every time miles mentioned Chesapeake Bay the collection
Erin: "i poop at 9pm"
Me: yep this is going to be a interesting episode
Can’t believe Miles got Harry Styles biggest fan while also l further expanding the pod’s collection of Smosh members
really appreciate miles choosing calls that perfectly match erin's vibe
a 5th smosh employee has hit the perfect person pod
Erin traumatised me yesterday on the smoshcast so I can’t wait to watch this
BABE WAKE UP ANOTHER PERFECT PERSON AND SMOSH COLLAB JUST RELEASED
This is already iconic!! Collab of the century yall we won!!!!!
ERIN! I’m obsessed with all of the smosh crossover. Now we just need Miles on Reddit Stories

PLEASE GET SHAYNE TOPP IM BEGGING YOU MILES
Surprised Erin didn't mention Harry Styles once but am so glad you included a vampire call 😂
Erin doing a podcast run! You go, queen!
Miles collecting one more Smosh member for his Infinity Gauntlet! Thank you for your service king!
Autistic to autistic radar is so real, I immediately knew the egg salad caller was one of us 😂😂😂
"this has been a horrible first impression" quite the opposite actually lmao
Firstly Erin is awesome love seeing her here too.
Secondly as an autistic person I support the first person saying it’s ableist about the eggs stuff despite eggs being a massive sensory ick for me and love that for her lol.

i feel like we all really glossed over miles calling hardboiled eggs hardi b
Miles could definitely pull off that ‘50s guy look. Ok but imagine Miles and Jay doing ‘50s Marlon Brando-James Dean cosplay
If you don't have Amanda Lehan-Canto next, that's criminal behavior
i saw erin and i got so excited omg she truly is a perfect person
What a week for Erin podcast appearances
Yay!!! Lunchtime with Miles!
I've been convinced I'm making an egg salad sandwich right now
Erin is such a perfect guest! I want her to come back more because her energy with Miles is so great
Erin is literally the perfect guest for this podcast 🔥
This just HAD to be filmed before the TryPpod eggisode omg
I’m going back to watch all the smosh episodes of Perfect Person and I’m SO GLAD THERES AN ERIN EPISODEEEEE
I love Erin in videos. She is super interesting and is not afraid to get real/unhinged.
Obsessed with Erin! Love her genuine listening and unhinged responses.
we stan Erin Dougal.
Erin is hilarious so happy to see her on here!!
Legit gasped❤ Just finished listening to her 1D breakdown
Oh Erin was a GREAT choice! I was so excited to see her pop up here!
Erin (with deep fear in her eyes): “I’m so honored!”
ERIN!!!!!!! LOVE TO HAVE YOU HEREE!!!
can confirm Erin is actually the most qualified for perfect person based on her Instagram stories she’s just a girl just like me and therefore I feel even before watching this she’s gonna have the realest answers fr
omg its the erin dougal renaissance I AM SAT
I ran here from IG when I saw that Erin was the guest. This was a great episode.
An aside, I got an ad for eggs 😂😂😂
Erin reacting to "perfect first date?" is giving Amanda trying to think of a movie with a bear
I FOUND IT - Harriet’s Intern #2
great ep! one of my fave guests loved her takes and input
My new bucket list item is now to have a deviled egg made by Erin Dougal in the smosh office
ICONIC DUO!
SMOSH HAS TWO BAGS OF HARD BOILED EGGS??? lmao
Sadly, I wish this was the 1st time I heard this fact.
Honestly Erin and Miles hanging out makes sense. They vibe similarly
im just patiently waiting for miles to join the smosh cast at this point 🤣
With all the sudden egg content I’m worried the egg lobby has gotten to you. Is this Big Egg’s work ?!
I saw Erin and clicked immediately
Yeow that teaser for the summer of ciao patreon eps was so cool and fun!!
Oh my god. Literally just finished watching Smosh Mouth 1D episode.
That was a perfect episode.
erin is so funny bro
Omg Erin Dougal on perfect person??
Cant wait to watch this!
Love this being a very egg forward episode when I literally just made ramen with a poached egg
yesh boiii lets work through all of smosh
Erin is amazing
6:07 was this before or after the trypod of eating hard boiled eggs?
Summer of Ciao is about to go SO HARD AHAHHA
This vampire society is reminding me of What We Do in the Shadows
Sally AND Harriot
Erin is giving young Jenna Marbles vibes and I love it❤
I recommend to Erin to drink every morning a lemon juice with ginger, a pinch of cayenne pepper, and turmeric. Really helped me with my gastric issues
Now it’s time for Ian and Anthony
i like that mini golf dates are a recurring element of this show
A groups of vampires in most lore I'm aware of (which would be D&D and Anne Rice) is in fact called a coven
I do not remember what they were called in wwdits but it moghtve also been a coven
Edit: i looked it up and apparently theyre also covens in twilight 👍

@RaptorsVevo no I got that lol, I just meant in general :) so Miles/Erin (I honestly can't remember who said it) were not incorrect
28:06 Um… I have one of those I use at my desk and I love it! It mostly just smells like steamed water and a boiled shell, so ya know! 😁💚
Miles soundin like wonder pets😂😂🦆🐸🐘 14:05
Miles in the striped shirt with the rolled up sleeves is lowkey giving gondola owner 😂❤
i know they already appeared in one episode together when the plog went to the smosh office, but i need a perfect person episode with both rainie and erin.
love erim dongle 😭😭💖💖
Underrated comment
pausing this to boil some eggs, i got hit with the eggs train😭😭

Okkk all I want is egg salad rn 🥚
Fr made me start boiling the eggs 🤣
The patron video was just incredible
Super OG checking in. Saw your friendship from the start!
OCEAN BREATHES SALTY MENTION‼️💥🫵❗️💥
I 💯 thought the first caller was a prank for Erin at first. What are the odds.
Okay I literally said “she’s the perfect person” as soon as the first caller was introduced
Erin is now the egg girl 🙂↕️
So if I have a poop schedule does that make me a perfect person? I poop at the same time every day lol 😂
this made me want an egg salad sandwich. And I work at a cafe so it’s possible
ERIN OUR RELATABLE KWEEN
I feel EXACTLY the same as Miles about the eggs and have clowned a friend of mine for boiling them in batches and then keeping them to eat plain throughout the day.
I feel like Gaston because I will hard boil a dozen eggs as food prep for the week and then eat like 6 of them instantly.
Omg Erin!!
Good morning perfect people ❤
Not you actually close to convincing me to pay for your patreon miles 👀
INSANE COLLAB lets go
