Florida Man here, the Clearwater case was two women using SO much glitter that the man inhaled it and had to go to the hospital and they were given battery charges, I believe. However a man did also rob a gas station with a pet alligator while highly intoxicated here. It's basically a swampy Mad Max.
Local Greek here: "ptero" is Greek for wing and ferns are probably called "pteridae" because they're wing-like. In modern Greek ferns are called "fteres", you can see how that came about. As a side-note, "dactylo" is Greek for finger, so a pterodactyl is a "wingfinger"
Bill Edgar gets paid to crash the funeral *by the deceased person.* He then reads a letter prepared by the dead person, sometimes containing confessions (a lifelong member of a biker gang hired Bill to announce that he had been a closeted gay man his whole life) or just messages of love for their friends and family.
Must say, it's great getting to see Jane win two (TWO!) games of this, as historically Jane hasn't gotten to win many of these games. Due, of course, to being such important work of being on top of the community chats and things. :) So, much yays for Jane in this one!
The thing with the surgeon was during the COVID lockdowns. Court was done via Zoom at the time. I believe he was in court for medical malpractice as well, making his court/surgery double-booking extra nuts.
As it turns out, I was wrong regarding the reason for the hearing. It was actually for a speeding ticket. Also worth noting is that they're a plastic surgeon.
Call me _crazy_ but when they said Charles Barkley, for some reason I could only envision Gnarls Barkley (CeeLo Green) fighting Godzilla and I was immensely perplexed.
I love watching gameplay for this game, honestly. (Just waiting for the OST to go live so I can listen to that kickass lobby theme and resulting credits vocals.
I knew the Pokemon Go cops one! They ignored a radio call about a robbery in progress 'cause they were driving around catching Pokemon for 20 or so minutes. Instead of chasing crims, they instead went to catch Snorlax.
As someone who lives in the state of Victoria, I was very confused by the idea JackBox made a "Wacky Victorians" category. Then was weirdly disappointed when I realised they didn't mean that kind of Victorian.
This new Fibbage looks great, thank you Mike, Jane and Andy for giving us a great preview of it. Also, was so good to see you all at EGX in the oxventures you did, here's to your success with them on the new channel.
Winged leaf/branch/stem, perhaps? Imagine yourself in a fantasy world with no word for 'fern'-- you take one look at the plant and name it a 'wingstem' instead.
That restaurant has also previously been named for serving the most expensive hamburger, the most expensive hot dog, and the most expensive grilled cheese sandwich. It's sort of their thing - being wild and wacky and kitschy but also ludicrously expensive. They tend to attract wealthy tourists and other thrill-seekers with deep pockets. It was also shut down in 2007 for spectacularly failing two consecutive health inspections in a matter of weeks. This was at a time when they were well-known for an ice cream sundae topped with special chocolate, exotic candies, truffles, liqueurs, caviar, and "edible" gold leaf, served in crystal goblet with a gold spoon - priced at $1,000. Presumably, it also came with a light dusting of mouse fur, rat droppings, and cockroach remains, which were just some of the reasons why the restaurant was shut down. It reopened shortly after, however, and suffered no loss of business - if anything, its status and popularity grew and grew as it inevitably become a fixture of social media posts for wealthy influencers.
This was a great way to spend a Tuesday evening. 1:02:16 Love you guys 😘 "Quality joking there" - Jane "I liked you when you were talking about horse armies" - Mike
The movie at the 54:00 mark is the 1937 movie "Nothing Sacred", starring Carole Lombard. It was remade in 1954 as "Living It Up", starring Jerry Lewis.
You know, offering free funerals (or even coffins) probably isn't bad public policy. Funerals are expensive! A lot of that comes from corporate consolidation of funeral homes, as Adam Ruins Everything covered a few years back, and this policy wouldn't do anything to stop that, but the fact still remains that for a lot of families, with death comes debt. Local governments funding funerals for people who know they're nearing the end of their lives would probably help their families be able to focus on the grieving process when the time comes. Even better if it's paired with antitrust laws (that take investors into account) and price controls (that introduce minor, proportional controls along the whole supply chain instead of just one part, eventually adding up to a big cost reduction for the consumer without reducing business viability). Political opponents would spin it so fast it'd cause a tornado warning, of course ("Local Politician to Elderly: You're Going to Die"), but people would be helped, and that's the main thing.
Pepsi never actually took possession of the ships and the 6th largest navy thing is just blatantly wrong, that would be a very small navy. It’s just one of those “facts” that everyone heard from a friend and kept repeating.
Yeah I was surprised this game claimed it was true, at this point it feels like I've seen it discredited so many times I guess it was the game making up its own lie
Dunno how I should feel about knowing about the fb ants group because I actually used to be a member. Haven't been there in a long while, but it used to be a lot of silly fun, posting about loving the ant queen, about work, and spamming the ant emoji if you didn't want to be branded a human in disguise. Sometimes humanity's alright. Edit : damn, I actually knew about Biquette ! She made local french news a while ago and it's an old popular nickname for goats. My old modern history teacher used to say goats are anarchists, and, you know what, it checks out
47:33 Nabisco makes Oreos, while the very similar Hydrox cookie was made by Sunshine. You're probably thinking one cookie was a knockoff of the other, and you'd be right: Oreos were the imitators, however. They simply won the fight.
Can confirm Pepsi did run an advert that suggested you could buy a military jet through them, however when someone tried and Pepsi refused they were sued for false advertising
Since no one else has answered in the 5 months since this streamed, the screaming in the Harold Diddlebock clip was old-timey shorthand for liquor being very strong, especially stronger than the drinker is used to. Since it's Harold's first drink of his life in the movie, that also explains why he doesn't even realize he's the one doing it.
So I remember Mike and Andy talking about eating at Serendipity III in NYC when they talked about Mike eating stunt food? They got the really expensive milkshake. Anyone else remember this?
The hand grenade in the potatoes likely has to do with the potatoes being grown in an Great War battlefield in France or Belguim. Called the "iron harvest", live munitions from the war are still peroidically found and upon occasion explode.
I googled it, the potatoes were grown in New Zealand, but you are right that it was dug up with the potatoes after being left there during WW2 (the grenade turned out to be a dud used for training)
Fibbage, Among us and one night ultimate werewolf outef me as a good liar to my friends and now I can't get away with anything 😂 Still tossing people out of the airlock as the imposter is fun
I vividly remember when "Who's Your Daddy" was advertised and almost a thing. Still can't believe it actually (nearly) happened. Truly the event horizon of bad reality television.
12:27 It's more perplexing than that-- the Siege of Yorktown was from September to October of that year, so the letter was probably written and delivered _before_ Cornwallis' surrender. Technically, American independence wasn't formalized until the Treaty of Paris in 1783.
Before watching: definitely not Mike. Either devious rogue Andy or Jane because she's big brain. Probably Andy, due to his experience as pirate and wild west outlaw.
I haven’t thought about Zenon in years, but a couple days ago I ended up looking up the show because someone brought up a similar name and it jogged the memory. Now Andy and Luke have a podcast about that exact show… weird 😅
The best way to lie, is to first establish a reputation of being a horrible liar: obvious ticks, nervousness, and taking too long to answer, etc. So when you _do_ lie, naturally and confidently spoken, they won't suspect it.
@@kunimitsune177 Ya'll are taking this too seriously. But to clarify, I said the best _way,_ not how to be a _better_ liar. And as to why I gave this pseudo-advice... Personal experience. Of course, it wasn't deliberate that I established myself as a bad liar. As you said, lie all the time and improve upon it. I did as so, and the family members who knew me as a bad liar believe my lies now after I gained some confidence in myself.
Okay now who snitched to Jackbox about Andy complaining the whole time? ; ) (Of course, maybe they just heard him from Jackbox HQ. It had slipped my mind until the french fry discovery how comically loud his voice can get)
Haven’t yet watched the video but I’m going with Jane. Having said that, I have a vague recall of a 20+ year news article saying such was the reason for people’s pogonophobia…
Might just be me, but it felt like there was a disproportionate amount of New Zealand content in this one. Not that I'm complaining, certainly. Though I'd definitely forgotten about Mr Chips and their wacky hand grenade hijinks.
I don't know how taxes work but if they vlogged it, couldn't they write the fries off as a business expense? I know this isn't a trying sort of channel but now I desperately want them to be able to try the fancy fries.
Stream starts at 1:56! But why would you want to skip such a funky tune?
Thanks my dude, and you're right, not skipping this time
Agreed! 💃
Seriously, that song has no right to slap as hard as it does
What IS that tune?❤👍

The delightful experience of saying "I know this one; I watched a Tom Scott video about it!" at the same time as Mike.
The highest pub question was about Tan Hill Inn.. Been there several times, there's a bench outside in memory of my dad :)

Being trapped with actual Oasis would have been worse than with cover band Oasis.

Had to look it up. Pteron is Greek for wing and Pteridophyte is Latin for fern. Probably a cognate at some point thousands of years ago.
Winged leaf/branch/stem, perhaps?
Imagine yourself in a fantasy world with no word for 'fern'-- you take one look at the plant and name it a 'wingstem' instead.
Andys violent outrage at $200 chips is a whole ass mood lol

The movie at the 54:00 mark is the 1937 movie "Nothing Sacred", starring Carole Lombard. It was remade in 1954 as "Living It Up", starring Jerry Lewis.

Horse armies, gold-dusted fries, and human skull medicine. This was one heck of a stream (and educational).
