I *KNEW* he was talking about you!! 🤣 I was just about to comment that! Thank god, you already did, because I´ve already commented twice now and would have had to decide, which one to delete again...
@@gogokowai Fair enough, but I meant he would watch himself playing Mario Maker and react to that the way he has since Arin started playing this world.
*Dan:* How many more levels are there, Ross? *Arin:* I think there's all of the Koopa kids, right? *Ross:* Mhmm. All of the Koopas. *Arin:* This is the last stage right? It has to be. *Ross:* ... *Ross:* All of the Koopas.
This shows always such a blast when Ross is on, I really hope he’s up for more Guest Grumps once in a while, also Dan shouting “Burger King yoU CUNTS” was incredible holy shit
It's always interesting hearing Ross's experiences with aphantasia, particularly because they're basically the same as my experiences with aphantasia. Like I would go around asking people to visualize something to gauge their reaction, like as a way to figure out whether they're actually seeing something. Also like, the thing about not liking books as much because there's no visual element and not being able to remember things as well in school. It's nice to know other people have the same experiences.
It was especially odd for me because im an avid reader so people assumed it was because i had a good imagination. In actuality it was because i enjoyed learning about fantastical people and places even if i couldnt "see" them.
Arin: "this is the last level right?" Ross: "all the koopas" I'm so glad Ross remembered not to give it away. But I bet Arin figured it out from the fact Ross dodged the question
@@Clubpenguin22 well yes obviously they find out when they get there, but the whole point of the castle rising out of the lava is that Arin thinks he beat the world and then there's more. I just don't want Arin to have found out before that big reveal.
@@jblen yeah I know, I just was letting you know they do eventually get to the final level cause there was no certainty they get there until Ross posted that picture :)
@@Clubpenguin22 ok fair enough, though I think it may have just been that Ross has to play instead. (Though judging by this episode I think Arin can do this level himself at least)
To people with aphantasia; there is a visualization exercise called “image streaming”. Some people with aphantasia have said that this exercise progressively made it easier for them to mentally visualize things. Considering how little known aphantasia is I would be concerned about something like “image streaming” also being largely unknown. Perhaps this technique might at the least work for some people even if it doesn’t give immediate results. I hope this helps!
**Ross and Arin talking about the Cat Mario feature** It wouldn't be Game Grumps without Arin saying something in complete confidence that is utterly and definitively wrong.
Ross talking about being an artist with aphantasia is super interesting. It seems to be fairly common, both my dad and my boyfriend have it. I’m a dancer with sound to color synesthesia, which is basically like an imagination power up. It really helps me convey emotion through my movements. I couldn’t imagine what my life would be like without it.
I got aphantasia they say that its rare but I feel like more people are starting to realize that they have it. Its a different experience honestly cause throughout life you couldnt really have an imagination. We have imagination just in a different way lol.
@@emischlief8691 I think a lot of people are thinking they have it because they are misunderstanding what it is (Not everyone obviously). I've seen lots of comments online where people seem to think they should be able to literally SEE things in front of their eyes like a hallucination, and if they can't do that they assume they have aphantasia. It's especially difficult when people with aphantasia try to describe it to other people because if you genuinely have it you can't explain to other people what they are supposed to be doing when they 'visualise' something. I can visualise images in my head, in a lot of detail mind you, but I find it hard to explain. It's like the visual version of an internal monologue (which apparently lots of people also don't have), you don't literally hear words you just think them.
"burger king spider lettuce" had me crying. That being said, huntsmans in produce isn't too uncommon, and as long as the lettuce was washed it was probably fine.
I love seeing Ross again, though I will say having him here listed as a guest grump instead of a grump hurts a little bit. I’m just glad we have him here tbh
... Wait, but he didn't? He said he'd practice it at home and beat it, but instead he had to bring in the guy who made the stage to beat it for him. I mean, no shame to Arin, you do what you gotta do, but still, that's not what he said he was going to do, lol.
Yall have to play fighterz again for sure! There's actually enough gokus for both of you to just have full teams of unique gokus! If that's what your into
So awesome hearing them just hanging out and BSing with Ross. We need more of seeing them interact with friends. Also, 100% would watch a fail video of Ross' Mario Maker antics.
I miss when Ross was a regular, but times change and I accept that. At least we get the slightest dose of nostalgia. I guess I'll go back and watch some old Steam Train vids, eh?
I mean they still hung out a bit cause they've talked about it, and I'm sure they're chatting a lot online, but obviously not as much as before cause covid really screwed everything up.
You can really tell Arin and Ross have been friends for like 15 years. They're like the same person but one's American, one's Australian. I'd watch that show. Very wholesome
I feel like Dan doesn't really need to say "okay and now Ross is handing the controller to arin" I mean, no offense to arin, but it shows when he's playing vs Ross playing 😂
Well let's understand that Arin changes game genres constantly, while Ross plays the same thing for an extended amount of time. Experience vs Diversity
After all the episodes of watching Arin fail at the early bosses, it was amazing to watch Ross just come in and beast them. Loved hearing the flow of the conversation the rest of the way too.
Its so nice to see Jaidens face after knowing her troubles with her self image and her anxiety towards showing herself online as she is in the physical world... its so nice to see how she grew.
You what? Wait... wait wait no, do you mean, like, the average person does have one? Cause I do, and I assume thats a normal thing is that like, average??
It's weird, because I usually don't picture much when reading, but I CAN picture things if I want to. I take in the info and understand it, but I'm more curious about the book in terms of whether I'll like the characters or enjoy the mystery more than I worry about how the characters look.
Same here. I cant picture the characters or the creature or the magic but still imagining the concepts as real things kept me reading. Admittedly i liked things like The Hobbits riddles more han The Wheel Of Times politics.
shame. i'm currently listening to (off and on) a japanese light novel audio book, and i'm past the point that's actually been turned into an anime, so i have to imagine whats going on. But the reader of this audio book, does a really great job at keeping me in my chair, and the fight scenes are really descriptive that i can actually imagine what the scene will be like in a year or twos time when the rest of this light novel, finally gets it anime adaptation.
This was fascinating to learn about aphantasia! (starting around 23:40 for reference) I don't have it, but if I _did,_ then I'd have a great excuse for why I don't enjoy reading so much! 😄
@@D14MBK That's a great question! I'm not really sure. I have been diagnosed with ADHD, and that might have something to do with why it doesn't hold my attention as well as videos do. I actually prefer both audio books and comics to actual _reading_ just straight text.
Man, Arin's aggression really is his downfall in these. If he'd just wait a moment, or stay atop a cannon a bit longer, or otherwise not just immediately gun it in some risky manner, he'd probably spend a lot less time dodging bombs or getting his butt kicked by Wendy O.
I try to remember that Arin is also the director/producer of Game Grumps, as well as being in it... that's not an easy thing to do... but it drives me nuts when he goofs up too xD I can't help it, it's like "Come on Arin" lol
The fun thing about linguistic accommodation, is some people naturally/unconsciously morph their accents to match whoever they’re talking to. I do this to basically everyone except (US) southerners. I’m not sure why my brain distinguishes that accent alone as different enough that I won’t adopt it, especially considering I’ve accidentally picked up slight British, Australian and Irish accents, and I pick up regional accents in Spanish too
As a U.S. southerner, I'm offended. Jk, but I do the same. Never thought of it as accommodation, but like, my dad is from New York and my mom grew up in the greater Huntsville area, so I'm only really southern when I'm around people who are really southern, you know? And on top of that, there are a lot of people in my area that come from Chicago, and I'll flow into their accent when I talk to them. I didn't know other people did that.
Same, i remember on tests I would picture how I spatially arranged my notes to help differentiate similar definitions. I'm more confused how anyone processes auditory information without subtitles
I never knew the inability to picture things in your head was a thing other people had. I've struggled my whole life with it. It's nice to have something to tell others about when I need to explain it.
Neat! When Ross was talking about Aphantasia and did the ball visualization thing, I just imagined three, roughly sketched circles. No color, no depth, just like circles on a page. I guess that's interesting. I remember watching that Sherlock show with Bengerton Cummyback, and he'd do his silly Mind Palace thing. All I could think of was how that's so exactly opposite of what's helpful. When I have to think about things in an intense way, I avoid visualizing at all costs. Just let thoughts run wild, not trying to interpret them. Like a blob of colors shifting around and mixing. Then I just get a "PING" and know that I know the answer, even if I don't know what the answer is. Then, in expressing what I know I know, the thoughts finally take shape. The Mind Palace always seemed like an extra, complex step that would make thinking so much harder and slower.
Yeah I would have to focus so so hard to get consistent shapes and details, that the mind palace thing wouldn't work for me because I'd be bursting a blood vessel just to get a good image of the front door
Ross wasn't kidding about people in his chat on that gartic phone stream - lots of people either confused on what he meant or having _"Wait I thought everyone was just pretending"_ reactions
That honestly blows my mind as to how someone can tell you "picture this" and you can't do it that you wouldn't know that means you can't do it when most people can. How do those people think that's normal when other people are literally telling them they can do things they can't? I don't mean that to sound rude by any means, I just don't understand.
23:40 "Can I ask you a question? When you read a character description, you can see the character clearly in your head, right?" **My head whips up cuz I've asked a very, very similar question a dozen times** Oh my god... is he about to ask about aphantasia? This is fascinating! I also have aphantasia, and I would describe my visualization as mostly blind. When Ross said "Picture three balls", it's just information I have, maybe the briefest flash of a muddy black-and-white picture-- there was no color, even when he asked for it. Directions are feelings, not pictures; movement in 3D space. I love color, I love sketching/drawing. I love love love zentangle. I have a great eye for very subtle differences in shades, and I can look at a picture of a 3D object and nearly unfailingly choose the correct rotated orientation like on those IQ tests (though that's more pattern recognition). But just like Ross, it's a matter of "sketching it out and finding the line". Where we differentiate is I LOVE books. I love being in a different world and feeling different things. The textile things are what gets me the most: the roughness of cobble streets or the sleekness of a river-stone; the tight squeeze of an underground tunnel or the open-air feel of a field. Anyway, it's neat to see someone more "popular" have aphantasia, especially an artist.

That one death hit Ross so hard it knocked the Australian back into him
"Yeah go on mate!" XD
It brought him straight back to the land down under.

Whenever Ross' Australian accent kicks in that's when you know he enjoying it
9:38 Ross's cackle when Arin dies immediately after Dan says "Nice Dude" had me dying. I love the chemistry between the three.
It's such a Ross thing to do
Brought me right back to 2014 :')
I want to add this little chuckle 23:51
he laughed so hard he went out of phase xD
Intro to Crazy Train right there
*Dan:* How many more levels are there, Ross?
*Arin:* I think there's all of the Koopa kids, right?
*Ross:* Mhmm. All of the Koopas.
*Arin:* This is the last stage right? It has to be.
*Ross:* ...
*Ross:* All of the Koopas.
He meant last stage in general, of RubberRoss World, not the last part of the level
I love Jaiden at the beginning needing that cup to stop from laughing while Arin is talking lol
@💋MARSYA💋 Will you love me long time?
you can see her belly giggles, which kinda explains why it's not one-shot. can't blame her tho
@💋MARSYA💋 Marysa, why won't you let me see the kids?!
I love how people are sad about their past relationship with a robot in the comments section
@💋MARSYA💋 sooooO like... do you come here often? Saw you broke some hearts and I just so happen to be looking for some character development
This shows always such a blast when Ross is on, I really hope he’s up for more Guest Grumps once in a while, also Dan shouting “Burger King yoU CUNTS” was incredible holy shit
Ross’s laugh reaching both mics is what I imagine a harpy’s scream to sound like
9:38
Accurate. It's a beautiful thing
9:40 Ross laughed so hard the audio broke in, like, three different ways.
“This is the last stage right?”
Ross: S I L E N C E*
Ross: YeAh, So, AlL ThE KoOpA KiDs!
Truly the loudest of silences,
@@NWolfsson "AlL the KoOpAs!"
Why am i reading op's comment in Amidala's voice, while imagining Ross Dressed as Anakin Skywalker?
I love how ross gets his accent back progressively more and more as the episode goes on lol
Ross' manic cackling whenever Arin falls for one of his traps really sums up his relationship with friends.
Arin: “This IS the last stage, right?”
Ross: “Allllll the koopa kids”
I love Ross talking about his crazy life and Dan is just like "I read books"
Well he is also a literal Rockstar, so he's got that going for him
"Burger King Spider Lettuce"
Please. PLEASE do more episodes of this. Finish Super RubberRoss World with Ross! This is great!

@mikochaos6310 think I can picture an outline, or low detail visual, and no more than that, and half the time I have to close my eyes to do so.
6:25 - Arin's thinking of the "WE HAVE A SON!" joke, it happened during the original version of this boss.
THE BABY'S COMING!
WHAT DO WE NAME HIM?!
Suzy : "WHAT'S HAPPENING??!"

Just missing some Best friend Barry.
Arin talking about Ross being a guest now reminds me of how a parent would talk about their kids coming back for Thanksgiving.
I like how they still call him Rubberninja in the title and link the Rubberninja channel in the description despite the conversation in the beginning.
God I've missed Ross interacting with Dan and Arin. Happy for him having his own thing, but the old days were sweet
Maybe if he didn't toss thousands of dollars in to a fire for a bit he'd still be on Game Grumps/Steam Train.
Ross’ new grump head looks too innocent and doe-eyed for his personality
Everyone knows Ross's true evil lies *within*
Yeah! Where are the devil horns?

Thank you plague, very cool
Arin is 100% talking about the legend himself LIL KIRBS around 28 minutes

That's what I thought as well.

I guess I'll go back and watch some old Steam Train vids, eh?
Watch his and Danny's kings quest playthroughs! They're so delightful
“This boss was a really good bit!”
I think the bit was Arin having a baby.
Arin and Ross have such a high-energy humor when they hang out for the first time in months/years.
I mean they still hung out a bit cause they've talked about it, and I'm sure they're chatting a lot online, but obviously not as much as before cause covid really screwed everything up.
The more Ross talks about Australia the more he returns to his true form.
The way Ross screamed with laughter when Arin died after finishing the mini boss. I nearly died.
"Hey Billy, what was your favorite episode of game grumps?" "I liked the one where they talked about" "Billy go to your room this instant!"
You can really tell Arin and Ross have been friends for like 15 years. They're like the same person but one's American, one's Australian. I'd watch that show. Very wholesome
YEAH! Ross is here!
Arin: "This one simple trick..."
Ross: "Uh-huh..."
*Breezes through 1st Mario level*
Watching the other 3 try desperately not to break character during Arin’s shenanigans at the beginning gives me life.
across the pond they call that "corpsing" after people having to pretend to be corpses.
"I've slain kings dude" that line fucking killed me :D, always a fun time here.
James and Ross just dead faced and Jaiden can't stop giggling into her cup lmao
Hearing Ross and Dan laugh together at Arin his deaths is the best 😂
I love the dynamic when these three get together, truely magical
“If 4 billion people are thinking of things all the time everyday, statistically *at least* one of those things is bound to happen in reality.”
I feel like Dan doesn't really need to say "okay and now Ross is handing the controller to arin" I mean, no offense to arin, but it shows when he's playing vs Ross playing 😂
Yeah, Ross killed it in the first 2 minutes, and then the rest was Arin. It definitely shows.
Well let's understand that Arin changes game genres constantly, while Ross plays the same thing for an extended amount of time. Experience vs Diversity

man, i love seeing ross visit the grumps and hanging out. glad to see him doing well and watching arin finish his world for a while.
Dan screaming C*NT makes me so happy, it's my favourite swear- XD
Seeing Ross's reactions in real time is a treasure. I'm so glad this series is back
the line between grump cade and guest grumps is becoming even more abstract
9:42 - HAHAHAHAHA! Wow, Ross still dying at Arin's misfortunes
11:59 - Hahahaha, that's awesome & funny
30:36 - Hahahaha
35:46 - Hahaaha, holy crap
The fun thing about linguistic accommodation, is some people naturally/unconsciously morph their accents to match whoever they’re talking to. I do this to basically everyone except (US) southerners. I’m not sure why my brain distinguishes that accent alone as different enough that I won’t adopt it, especially considering I’ve accidentally picked up slight British, Australian and Irish accents, and I pick up regional accents in Spanish too
As a U.S. southerner, I'm offended.
Jk, but I do the same. Never thought of it as accommodation, but like, my dad is from New York and my mom grew up in the greater Huntsville area, so I'm only really southern when I'm around people who are really southern, you know? And on top of that, there are a lot of people in my area that come from Chicago, and I'll flow into their accent when I talk to them. I didn't know other people did that.
as someone who learns almost entirely visually, i literally cant comprehend being unable to visualize something. head empty.
Its such an interesting discussion from either end.
Same, i remember on tests I would picture how I spatially arranged my notes to help differentiate similar definitions. I'm more confused how anyone processes auditory information without subtitles
Episode spoiler
I like how even with Ross here the stage still isn't beaten
0:30 Ross's face at his limit with arin like... Ross: God when will this end..?
28:05 Arin's probably thinking about LilKirbs!!! And then he throws something against the wall for completing the level xD
I love Ross slowing getting his accent back as he's talking about Australian Slang
Despite conventional wisdom, there was apparently no room for Jollo in Ross' heartfelt hatred of King's Quest VI.
I never knew the inability to picture things in your head was a thing other people had. I've struggled my whole life with it. It's nice to have something to tell others about when I need to explain it.
I love it every time they used that intro. Jaden's reaction is everything. Arin going all over the top is the best!
10:42 IM SO GLAD THEY TALKED ABOUT THAT. i loved that playthrough
Neat!
When Ross was talking about Aphantasia and did the ball visualization thing, I just imagined three, roughly sketched circles. No color, no depth, just like circles on a page. I guess that's interesting.
I remember watching that Sherlock show with Bengerton Cummyback, and he'd do his silly Mind Palace thing. All I could think of was how that's so exactly opposite of what's helpful. When I have to think about things in an intense way, I avoid visualizing at all costs. Just let thoughts run wild, not trying to interpret them. Like a blob of colors shifting around and mixing. Then I just get a "PING" and know that I know the answer, even if I don't know what the answer is. Then, in expressing what I know I know, the thoughts finally take shape. The Mind Palace always seemed like an extra, complex step that would make thinking so much harder and slower.
Yeah I would have to focus so so hard to get consistent shapes and details, that the mind palace thing wouldn't work for me because I'd be bursting a blood vessel just to get a good image of the front door
28:05 he has to be talking about Lil Kirbs. If he’s not I’m gonna shout him out cause he needs more recognition.
Ross wasn't kidding about people in his chat on that gartic phone stream - lots of people either confused on what he meant or having _"Wait I thought everyone was just pretending"_ reactions
That honestly blows my mind as to how someone can tell you "picture this" and you can't do it that you wouldn't know that means you can't do it when most people can. How do those people think that's normal when other people are literally telling them they can do things they can't? I don't mean that to sound rude by any means, I just don't understand.
@@justanaveragejoe4265 i just assumed it was a metaphor lol
I love the way Ross gets excited and goes back to Australian twenty minutes in.
RIP Lemony Fresh," I found out about this yesterday."
Me: "yay they're gonna finish it"
Also me: "no not this level again the memory gone but the pain still fresh"
And I say unto you:
"No, I'm not Mario Maker Jesus, either."
Wow it’s crazy that Ross overthrew the Burger King and installed a burger republic
I'm still waiting for the Ross Toss to be a real dance one day
Happy to see ghoul grumps continued beyond Halloween this year!
Ross: "My mind is completely empty"
God, same though.
23:40
"Can I ask you a question? When you read a character description, you can see the character clearly in your head, right?"
**My head whips up cuz I've asked a very, very similar question a dozen times** Oh my god... is he about to ask about aphantasia?
This is fascinating! I also have aphantasia, and I would describe my visualization as mostly blind. When Ross said "Picture three balls", it's just information I have, maybe the briefest flash of a muddy black-and-white picture-- there was no color, even when he asked for it. Directions are feelings, not pictures; movement in 3D space.
I love color, I love sketching/drawing. I love love love zentangle. I have a great eye for very subtle differences in shades, and I can look at a picture of a 3D object and nearly unfailingly choose the correct rotated orientation like on those IQ tests (though that's more pattern recognition). But just like Ross, it's a matter of "sketching it out and finding the line".
Where we differentiate is I LOVE books. I love being in a different world and feeling different things. The textile things are what gets me the most: the roughness of cobble streets or the sleekness of a river-stone; the tight squeeze of an underground tunnel or the open-air feel of a field.
Anyway, it's neat to see someone more "popular" have aphantasia, especially an artist.
