Chris
So, so why are you stupid JRPG today?
00:00:24
stupidjrpg

00:00:24
Chris
Or is that your topic?
00:00:26
stupidjrpg
No, it's not my topic.
00:00:27
Chris
Okay.
00:00:28
stupidjrpg
That Claire Obscura game is... It's too much for me.
00:00:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:00:34
stupidjrpg
There's no maps.
00:00:34
Chris
Yeah.
00:00:36
stupidjrpg
There's no...
00:00:37
Chris
yeah
00:00:38
stupidjrpg
Like...
00:00:38
Chris
You got to make your own map. You just draw it as you go.
00:00:41
stupidjrpg
Ball...
00:00:44
stupidjrpg
I'm not interested in that.
00:00:46
Chris
Yeah.
00:00:48
stupidjrpg
um
00:00:48
Chris
It's definitely on my that's my next game to play.
00:00:51
stupidjrpg
It's definitely ah it's your kind of game.
00:00:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:00:53
stupidjrpg
Which is fine. you know They don't all have to be.
00:00:55
Chris
And there's some phenomenal voice actors in it.
00:00:58
stupidjrpg
I heard the guy from Daredevil's in it.
Impact of Voice Actors in Gaming
00:01:00
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:01:00
stupidjrpg
Which seems like a giant waste of money because he doesn't talk that much.
00:01:00
Chris
Charlie Cox is in it. Ben Starr. Andy Serkis.
00:01:05
Chris
andy circus
00:01:07
stupidjrpg
Andy Serkis is in it.
00:01:09
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:01:11
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:01:12
Chris
So.
00:01:14
stupidjrpg
feel like that's a...
00:01:14
Chris
Which, yeah.
00:01:16
stupidjrpg
Like, that didn't doesn't do anything for me.
Upcoming Games and Game Mechanics
00:01:19
stupidjrpg
Like, to say, oh, this famous person's the voice factor, because...
00:01:21
Chris
Hmm.
00:01:23
stupidjrpg
I don't care.
00:01:25
Chris
Yeah, I don't know. I. I kind of like recognizing you know certain people's voices. Like, oh yeah, I've heard them do so-and-so or whatever.
00:01:36
Chris
But yeah, I guess, I don't know. Are we not supposed call them voice actors anymore? Just supposed call them actors?
00:01:43
stupidjrpg
They're voice actors. They're just...
00:01:45
Chris
I don't know.
00:01:46
stupidjrpg
every i' I don't know. They're voice actors.
00:01:48
Chris
No. what and But some of them, they actually do some of the mo-cap stuff and all too.
00:01:48
stupidjrpg
Talent.
00:01:53
Chris
So I don't know.
00:01:56
stupidjrpg
It's fair.
00:01:57
Chris
yeah
00:02:00
stupidjrpg
Yeah, I've given the game a good two hours.
00:02:03
Chris
Okay.
00:02:05
stupidjrpg
It's... It's cool, but I can also tell exactly that it's not my game.
00:02:09
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, I mean, that's good.
00:02:10
stupidjrpg
Like, it's I'm going to try to throw a couple more hours at it, but it's a little too...
00:02:16
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:18
stupidjrpg
It's too frustrating for me.
00:02:20
Chris
Are you looking forward to doom the dark ages? Yeah.
00:02:24
stupidjrpg
I... Boy, I was just looking at that. And maybe.
00:02:28
Chris
Yeah. yeah
00:02:29
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:02:32
stupidjrpg
Doom, the Dark Ages. I'm still working on Oblivion.
00:02:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:36
stupidjrpg
Which... It's a hard game.
00:02:39
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:39
stupidjrpg
It's...
00:02:39
Chris
Like hard as in difficulty or.
00:02:40
stupidjrpg
ah
00:02:43
stupidjrpg
uh well that too but mostly just because it's like so old and it's yeah yeah I mean it's like oh this is beautiful looking but it still feels a little clunky and old
00:02:47
Chris
Old game is old despite with the new polish. Yeah. Yeah,
00:02:56
Chris
because I heard they use the same engine. They just put. Like better graphic part or like, um yeah, whatever. Like, the graphics engine was beefed up, but the game mechanics engine really wasn't tinkered with much.
00:03:10
stupidjrpg
Yeah, I like from what I heard, there's a few quality of life changes, but mostly it's it's just an old game. And old games play like old games.
00:03:19
Chris
Yeah.
00:03:22
Chris
Right, yeah.
00:03:23
stupidjrpg
you know Which is fine. you know
00:03:24
Chris
Yeah, I mean, that's, yeah.
00:03:26
stupidjrpg
like to grind my blade skill.
00:03:30
Chris
Yeah, I just, I don't know, I'm just not a big Bethesda RPG, that first person, it just feels floaty to me.
00:03:38
stupidjrpg
Hey, you can play play a third person.
00:03:41
Chris
Ah, but even then, it just, I don't know, the combat feels very floaty.
00:03:45
stupidjrpg
Yeah, it's very...
00:03:46
Chris
So.
00:03:51
stupidjrpg
Yeah, I could definitely see it and say that the combat is not very rewarding.
00:03:52
Chris
Yeah. Hmm.
00:03:58
Chris
Hmm.
00:03:59
stupidjrpg
don't know the word. Yeah. Yeah.
00:04:01
Chris
yeah yeah no i i and i mean i played skyrim and to me the ranged combat felt much better than the close combat so but yeah i'm still playing rise of the ronin right now it's fun it's just
00:04:12
stupidjrpg
yeah
00:04:22
Chris
I thought I had unlocked, like, done all the things in the map, and they threw me somewhere new. was like, oh, well, this must be just, like, the end game, and they're running me through this little, oh, no, no, no, there's, like, seven more territories, and
Game Reviews: Avowed and Borderlands Series
00:04:33
Chris
I'm like, oh, yeah.
00:04:33
stupidjrpg
I
00:04:36
stupidjrpg
finished Avowed. It was good.
00:04:38
Chris
Okay. Yeah.
00:04:40
stupidjrpg
um
00:04:42
stupidjrpg
Weirdly, like, kind of disappointing in the leveling part of it, but it was fine.
00:04:48
Chris
Hmm. Hmm.
00:04:49
stupidjrpg
It was a fun experience. The story was okay.
00:04:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:04:54
stupidjrpg
It's got a weird um graphic vibe. Like, if you're into that, it doesn't, because it never looked, never looked good, ah would say.
00:05:01
Chris
Okay.
00:05:04
Chris
Mm hmm.
00:05:05
stupidjrpg
so
00:05:05
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:06
stupidjrpg
and but it was, it was fine.
00:05:09
Chris
saw Borderlands four got moved up a week.
00:05:11
stupidjrpg
Oh, I didn't even know they were making Borderlands 4.
00:05:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:13
stupidjrpg
I thought after the, the disaster of the movie.
00:05:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:18
Chris
yeah yeah yeah i haven't really watched or seen much of it i don't know now that there's a new trailer since they pushed up their release i'll watch that because know they're saying they the release pushed up a week came out before but gta 6 has been pushed into next year which if nobody saw that coming you're an idiot um
00:05:37
stupidjrpg
yeah
00:05:39
Chris
But I was like, oh, OK, well, you new Borderlands, you know, maybe it's a little bit different, but still Borderlands. I don't know. Borderlands three was fun. It just felt like too much of the same.
00:05:51
stupidjrpg
I kind of 100% agree with you that Borderlands 3 was just it was fine.
00:05:59
Chris
It was like Borderlands 2.5. Yeah.
00:06:01
stupidjrpg
Yeah. Borderlands 1 was so good. And Borderlands 2 was
00:06:06
Chris
yeah
00:06:07
stupidjrpg
engaging and good and board guns three i just never could get into it i was just like yeah this i don't really care about the story
00:06:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:06:14
Chris
and Well, yeah, and the characters, none of the four are really got...
00:06:17
stupidjrpg
yeah right yeah so they you know it's okay they're allowed to have a mess everybody has a mess man
00:06:18
Chris
Yeah, I was like, okay, I don't care about any of you. So, yeah.
00:06:25
Chris
Yeah, yeah, we'll see. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's games. Yeah. So...
00:06:34
stupidjrpg
my entire
Environmental Concerns and Health
00:06:36
stupidjrpg
respiratory system is being assaulted by the world. So dealing with, yeah.
00:06:40
Chris
The pollen.
00:06:43
stupidjrpg
I was good until literally yesterday afternoon. I didn't have even to blow my nose for like two weeks.
00:06:48
Chris
Oh,
00:06:52
Chris
ah wow.
00:06:54
stupidjrpg
And then just hit me hard.
00:06:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:06:57
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's definitely that time of year where you get your car in the morning, you turn the windshield wipers on and it's...
00:07:05
stupidjrpg
I can't even wash my car at work.
00:07:06
Chris
but but it's wi yeah it's But it's right here, like in this middle section. Like I talked to people who were, know, like ah like um our fire chief just went to Florida. He was like, there's no pollen.
00:07:18
Chris
There's no pollen down there. don't get it.
00:07:22
stupidjrpg
I'm going to say this, and I might be misremembering the world. We never had pollen like you guys have pollen until like two years ago.
00:07:30
Chris
yeah
00:07:33
Chris
yeah
00:07:35
stupidjrpg
It's got to be that pear tree that's invasive, that's taking over the Mideast.
00:07:38
Chris
Was it the Braeburns or whatever?
00:07:41
stupidjrpg
Whatever that is.
00:07:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:07:42
stupidjrpg
They're everywhere. They're all up Route 1 now.
00:07:44
Chris
Yeah. Mm. Because people think they're pretty.
00:07:46
stupidjrpg
yeah
00:07:49
stupidjrpg
They're pretty for about two weeks.
00:07:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:07:53
stupidjrpg
And they look like every other.
00:07:53
Chris
Bradford. Is it Bradford pair?
00:07:55
stupidjrpg
Starts with the B. So Bradford sounds right. I don't know. Some sort of pear tree. And they they have pretty white flowers for two weeks, and then the rest of the year they just look like every other freaking tree.
00:08:06
Chris
Yes, it's the Bradford pair.
00:08:09
stupidjrpg
I just know it's an invasive species.
00:08:09
Chris
yeah Yeah, yeah, because it's originally East Asian tree.
00:08:11
stupidjrpg
And it's...
00:08:15
stupidjrpg
yeah
00:08:16
Chris
Oh, see, that's what it is.
00:08:17
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:08:17
Chris
It's China trying to take over.
00:08:21
stupidjrpg
They're everywhere. They are bad.
00:08:22
Chris
Yeah. God, if they somehow teamed up with crabgrass, we're screwed. God.
00:08:32
stupidjrpg
Yeah. Yeah. I already had ticks yesterday. when played disc golf.
00:08:38
Chris
Mm.
00:08:38
stupidjrpg
already had ticks on me. It was 90 degrees in May, so that bodes well for the summer.
00:08:39
Chris
Ah. yeah oh yeah yeah yeah that's like i went to that rescue the other day in fruitland and vehicle was out in this like cleared off field i was like oh god i'm gonna get so eat up out here i'm sure
00:08:47
stupidjrpg
I'm going to propose...
00:08:58
stupidjrpg
I'm proposing we go to some sort of... fire rescue tank top for the summer.
00:09:04
Chris
yes i was gonna say tube top
00:09:08
stupidjrpg
I'm gonna need ah is it heather gray? What what color is my uniform now?
00:09:15
Chris
Well, the good thing about the Heather Gray is it doesn't show sweat or anything like that.
00:09:20
stupidjrpg
Oh my god. I got... where did go the other day? Somewhere i was in my gear for like, i don't know, five minutes.
00:09:28
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:28
stupidjrpg
I came out and was like, oh my god, I just got out of the sauna. You just see sweat all over my shirt.
00:09:33
Chris
yeah yeah Yeah.
00:09:37
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:09:38
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:40
stupidjrpg
Can we least get like moisture-wicking shirts?
00:09:43
Chris
yeah
00:09:44
stupidjrpg
I thought about that.
00:09:44
Chris
I...
00:09:44
stupidjrpg
It was like, if I just went out and bought a moisture-wicking shirt and had them print, you know, Salisbury Fire Department, I'd probably get rid of them.
00:09:51
Chris
right
00:09:51
stupidjrpg
But I'd feel comfortable.
00:09:54
Chris
I don't know. yeah It's but like I did my consumption drill the other day and it wasn't hot hot. But yeah, was like, I got done and yeah, my polo was soaked.
00:10:09
Chris
But the good thing is the white doesn't really show.
00:10:12
stupidjrpg
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:10:14
Chris
yeah
00:10:15
stupidjrpg
I can tell you, as I get closer retirement, the more and more I think about not wearing fire gear in August, the happier I am.
00:10:23
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:10:29
Chris
Well, that's when you mentor people and you drive.
00:10:35
stupidjrpg
Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:10:36
Chris
Yeah. Which still doesn't make sense to me. If you're mentoring somebody for the officer's position, you should be in the nozzle seat. So you're staying with them.
00:10:42
stupidjrpg
That's what I always did.
00:10:43
Chris
I know, but there are some people out there. No, I'll drive them.
00:10:47
stupidjrpg
Right.
00:10:48
Chris
Yeah.
00:10:49
stupidjrpg
doesn't make It doesn't make any sense.
00:10:50
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:10:53
stupidjrpg
I guess it helps when you're going there.
00:10:56
Chris
I sure.
00:10:57
stupidjrpg
guess.
00:10:58
Chris
Yeah. And you guys had a catastrophe the other night for the police department.
Krispy Kreme Incident
00:11:05
stupidjrpg
Oh my god. They were holding vigil when I got to the station later. That...
00:11:11
Chris
ah The Krispy Kreme burned down. didn't.
00:11:14
stupidjrpg
It didn't burn down.
00:11:15
Chris
but I know.
00:11:15
stupidjrpg
No,
00:11:16
Chris
Yeah. but And you heard what happened, right?
00:11:19
stupidjrpg
I never heard what ended up causing it.
00:11:21
Chris
They were changing the grease or whatever. and they forgot to turn the heater off. So when they drain the grease out before they could put the new grease in it, what little bit of grease and all was in there off it went.
00:11:39
stupidjrpg
Nice.
00:11:40
Chris
So yeah, yeah, no, which evidently that's just that's like the main distribution, Krispy Kreme for this area.
00:11:42
stupidjrpg
That'll probably do it.
00:11:49
Chris
Because
00:11:49
stupidjrpg
Oh, yeah, I imagine. There's not many bakeries around.
00:11:53
Chris
yeah And they, yeah like, the fire inspector was talking to the general manager or whatever, and he's like, yeah I mean, Rural Farms is going to be on me if I don't get these donuts to him quick.
00:12:07
Chris
Okay. Yeah.
00:12:08
stupidjrpg
Well, all of these donuts are getting thrown away.
00:12:10
Chris
yeah Yeah, it's K-rated.
00:12:11
stupidjrpg
so
00:12:11
Chris
K-rated.
00:12:13
stupidjrpg
ah ah heard this. I was surprised his his truck didn't come slide swiping into the parking lot.
00:12:19
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:12:20
stupidjrpg
Let's take all the thrown away donuts.
00:12:25
Chris
Yeah, I made it to the bypass on that call.
00:12:29
stupidjrpg
um
00:12:30
Chris
So because i didn't realize nobody was on call that night.
00:12:31
stupidjrpg
We made it there, sort of.
00:12:37
Chris
And the other deputy chief was in a chief's association meeting and I get this text.
00:12:41
stupidjrpg
Oh.
00:12:43
Chris
Hey, can somebody go to that call? i looked at Paul's point and I was like, oh, crap. Yeah. So I'm running around the house getting changed and throwing on a fire department T-shirt and shorts. and yeah i made it to about the bypass
00:12:59
stupidjrpg
I'm sure I'm going to get written up by Central because when the lieutenant from the truck screaming out for help, help, it's on fire, we just got an engine and went before we were dispatched. So I'm sure we'll get yelled at.
00:13:13
Chris
if they yell at you let us handle that because that's no that's what you should do because the other day it took them eight minutes to dispatch a structure fire
00:13:13
stupidjrpg
so for
00:13:24
stupidjrpg
We had a call on my shift, that it was six minutes I watched the pre-alert before they dropped the tones.
00:13:30
Chris
yeah
00:13:31
stupidjrpg
And I was like, I'm pretty sure this the national standard from call take to dispatch is 90 seconds. So we're well...
00:13:38
Chris
ninety percent 90% of your calls should be dispatched within a minute 99% should be within 90 seconds or something like that.
00:13:45
stupidjrpg
Yeah, they're not making that.
00:13:47
Chris
do No, no, no.
00:13:51
Chris
Yeah.
00:13:52
stupidjrpg
Yeah. Yeah. I said, look, it's a rough job. I heard their excuse for why that that fire ah took eight minutes, by the way.
00:13:58
Chris
Yeah.
00:14:02
stupidjrpg
And that's a terrifying excuse. If that really is what happened, I don't know what you heard, but I heard that they said that everybody was busy taking calls.
00:14:11
Chris
Yeah. Yep. Yeah.
00:14:13
stupidjrpg
And if that's true, that's terrifying.
00:14:14
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:14:16
Chris
Yes. Yeah, I agree. Yeah. Well, I also like when you hear a crew, you know, like Paramedic 2 Central, you can hear like some something in their voice. Standby Paramedics who were extremely busy.
00:14:16
stupidjrpg
Some real changes have to happen.
00:14:27
stupidjrpg
Right.
00:14:28
Chris
No, no, no. Your job is to listen to them.
00:14:31
stupidjrpg
Right. Yeah.
00:14:33
Chris
hu
00:14:33
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:14:34
Chris
Oh,
00:14:36
stupidjrpg
yeah
00:14:36
Chris
Side tangent, I don't know. I don't know, the goofy way I pay attention to things. I always look, especially when when I'm stopped in traffic, at the vehicles around me, at their wheels.
00:14:50
Chris
So many people are driving around missing one or more lug nuts. How does this happen?
00:14:56
stupidjrpg
That's a problem. That's a good question.
00:15:00
Chris
How? I mean, is it a cost thing? i mean Do we need to supply extra lug nuts?
00:15:05
stupidjrpg
What's weight? You got to reduce the weight.
00:15:09
Chris
Oh, is that what it is?
00:15:10
stupidjrpg
it's like the It's like the bike racers that they take their plastic caps off of their tubes because it's saving grams.
00:15:10
Chris
Okay.
00:15:17
stupidjrpg
It could be like that.
00:15:17
Chris
Yeah. Okay.
00:15:20
stupidjrpg
i was to say, I see people with expired tags constantly now.
00:15:24
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:15:28
stupidjrpg
which in your state makes no freaking sense because you don't even have to get inspected.
00:15:33
Chris
Yeah, that's true. So evidently some of those expired though. What is it? Because my neighbor knows his tags were expired. He's a state trooper.
00:15:45
Chris
But the tag, the one with the sticker is on the front of the vehicle. I don't know if that's like some weird undercover code they use that if you put the tag with the stickers on the front to show that you're an undercover, I don't know.
00:16:02
Chris
But yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They expired, which a little victory with the historic plates. The Maryland has passed that the historic plates are only for cars made before 1999.
00:16:20
stupidjrpg
Oh, nice.
00:16:21
Chris
So it's a little step in the right direction.
00:16:23
stupidjrpg
Now you see everybody running around buying 1998 Ford Rangers.
00:16:27
Chris
Oh my gosh.
00:16:29
stupidjrpg
The Danger Ranger.
00:16:30
Chris
Only supposed to be driven like on Sundays or something. But say, you know, when I retire, if the state police want to hire me, I will literally drive around and write tickets just to those people.
00:16:32
stupidjrpg
Right.
Public Safety and Parking Issues
00:16:41
stupidjrpg
i don't know. i I really just want to enforce fire lane violations.
00:16:45
Chris
my gosh.
00:16:46
stupidjrpg
That's all I want to do.
00:16:48
Chris
Let's say in my new work car, I've got a bunch of those like you're parked in a fire lane, little nasty things to put on people's windshields.
00:16:55
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:16:56
Chris
And like the other day, there was somebody in the fire lane right there Claremont. I was like, and by the time I circled around, they were like running out to their car to jump in. was like, oh.
00:17:05
stupidjrpg
Man, you need to give them to me because I run into those people all the time. That food line that we go to, it's constant.
00:17:12
Chris
Oh, yeah.
00:17:14
stupidjrpg
And I make comments.
00:17:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:15
stupidjrpg
I'm surprised somebody hasn't complained because I'm always like, that's a weird looking fire truck. I didn't know they made a Toyota fire truck.
00:17:19
Chris
That's what, yeah. Well, see, that's what I say all the time, like off-duty in my regular clothes, and my wife's like, you're going to get shot.
00:17:27
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:17:28
Chris
Because I say it loud.
00:17:29
stupidjrpg
Yeah, me too. It's ridiculous. Ridiculous. And you know, like, because the shopping center by me, is and my personal life, is real bad because it's it's real narrow.
00:17:39
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:42
stupidjrpg
And these people are like, the worst ones are the, oh, I'm just running to get my food. Well, there's a freaking parking spot that I can see six feet from you that wouldn't be blocking the goddamn fire lane.
00:17:45
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:17:50
Chris
Right.
00:17:51
stupidjrpg
And the fire trucks go in that parking lot all the time because there's also a ah urgent care.
00:17:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:57
Chris
o
00:17:57
stupidjrpg
So they get called there all the time. and You dumbasses are in there.
00:18:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:02
stupidjrpg
Pay me.
00:18:02
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:03
stupidjrpg
yeah know You don't have to pay me. Just give me the authority to give tickets out and I will do it.
00:18:05
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:07
stupidjrpg
glad I'll dance down the road as I do it.
00:18:08
Chris
Hmm. Yeah. Or a tow truck. Just give me a tow truck.
00:18:13
stupidjrpg
Yeah. Well, Newark just had to...
00:18:16
Chris
But one of those you can just back up real quick and hook it.
00:18:18
stupidjrpg
Yeah, so the the repo ones. Newark just had to put body cams on their parking enforcement officers because of people arguing with their...
00:18:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:27
stupidjrpg
You know, people now and yeah you don't even see the ticket anymore.
00:18:27
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:18:29
stupidjrpg
So you don't even I don't know how you would know to yell at them because they just mail it to you.
00:18:34
Chris
yeah
00:18:34
stupidjrpg
Right. They don't put it on your car anymore.
00:18:36
Chris
Right.
00:18:37
stupidjrpg
I did see a car that had four boots on it the other day in Newark.
00:18:45
Chris
I mean, that's a little excessive, but.
00:18:47
stupidjrpg
it felt a little like it was like if they had it it was on one of the side streets and like in newark you can't park on side streets unless you have resident parking it's like you're allowed to park in zone whatever and it had like notice and it had like six notices in the window you know like adhesed to the window and then it just had four boots like oh i think they just got ti sick of this car
00:18:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:56
Chris
Yeah.
00:19:14
Chris
yeah this If it's still there tomorrow, I'm putting another boot on it.
00:19:18
stupidjrpg
yeah It kind of impressive.
00:19:21
Chris
Yeah, yeah. What's the next thing?
00:19:23
stupidjrpg
I think just got...
00:19:23
Chris
did they Do they then hook a chain to the boot and drive it down into the pavement?
00:19:28
stupidjrpg
um I mean, assume They tell it eventually, right? They have to.
00:19:32
Chris
Yeah, yeah. yeah So speaking of towing, so that call I went to in Fruitland, the vehicle's on its side. The patient wanted his house keys and the keys were still in the ignition.
00:19:49
Chris
So I get one of the folks from Fruitland to like hold the passenger side door open. I could see I could reach in and grab the keys. Well, wouldn't. The key wouldn't twist out the ignition. So I just you know pulled hard and it pulled that little ring off and his house keys came separated from his ignition key.
00:20:07
stupidjrpg
Sure.
00:20:08
Chris
I'm bringing the keys back and the Somerset Sheriff's deputy says, well, did you leave a key in the ignition in case the tow truck wants to drive it? It's on its side, young man. How is he going to drive it?
00:20:27
Chris
Yeah. Which, yeah, I got there and fire police. The one guy is like, has his hand on the vehicle. I got it set. no you don't. I just said, I appreciate you, but could you step back?
00:20:42
Chris
Hmm. Yeah.
00:20:44
stupidjrpg
Fire police, my favorite.
00:20:45
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:20:48
stupidjrpg
yeah
00:20:48
Chris
Yeah, there were more fire police there than there were on the engine from Fruitland.
00:20:53
stupidjrpg
Yeah, my, um, one of my drivers, he always makes the comment, and don' understand why we don't have fire police. i just I don't want to direct traffic. I'm like, yeah, but we also don't want to deal with the liability of 90-year-old men dying heart attacks on the scenes.
00:21:06
Chris
Right.
00:21:07
stupidjrpg
That's why the fire department doesn't have fire police.
00:21:07
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. You look at Yeah. Look at some, ah so many of those, you know, line of quote unquote line of duty deaths.
00:21:14
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:21:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:21:15
stupidjrpg
This dude was 87 years old and died of a heart attack.
00:21:15
Chris
Yeah.
00:21:18
stupidjrpg
That's not lying to you, death.
00:21:19
Chris
Yeah.
00:21:19
stupidjrpg
That's time running out.
00:21:20
Chris
He was directing traffic at an accident and 23 hours later woke up dead in his bed.
00:21:21
stupidjrpg
Right. right
00:21:26
Chris
That's, that's not line of duty.
00:21:28
stupidjrpg
The dude
00:21:29
Chris
That's the grim Reaper finally catching up to his old ass.
00:21:31
stupidjrpg
was on the run from the deaths. That's the whole difference.
00:21:34
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's yeah. Yeah, that's why we have police.
00:21:42
stupidjrpg
That's why we have... And I will tell you this. It used to be they hated... like it so it seemed like, especially Sarasovs, they would not want to be on scene.
00:21:54
Chris
Right.
00:21:54
stupidjrpg
And now, like, MSP, Sheriff's Office, SPD, they're like, ah, we got this. You guys can leave.
00:21:59
Chris
Yeah.
00:22:00
stupidjrpg
What's happened?
00:22:01
Chris
Yeah, it's because they know they can just get back in their car, sit in their air conditioning, and write a report.
00:22:07
stupidjrpg
Yep.
00:22:08
Chris
Because if something minor comes out, I'm tied up on this.
00:22:12
stupidjrpg
Yep. Yep. I think it is also they finally realized we're busy. You know, which is nice.
00:22:22
stupidjrpg
Not that we're running two calls a day anymore. We ran nine calls in the engine of the day.
00:22:26
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:22:28
stupidjrpg
Ran more calls than the damn ambulance.
00:22:30
Chris
yeah
00:22:33
Chris
yeah
00:22:33
stupidjrpg
Ambulance crew slept all night. And i just looked and was like, did you have good night?
00:22:35
Chris
Hey,
00:22:36
stupidjrpg
Yeah, it was great. Fuckers.
00:22:40
Chris
it's nice that every now and again ambulance gets that.
00:22:43
stupidjrpg
It's true. It's true.
Emergency Response Times
00:22:45
Chris
Yeah. I still remember. God, I think it was me and Twilly on the medic uptown. And the engine crew, to be a smart aleck, they had like an AFA, like 11 o'clock at night.
00:23:00
Chris
Turn the lights on. hey medics, we're going on a call. We'll be back soon.
00:23:04
stupidjrpg
but Oh, ah oh, oh.
00:23:04
Chris
oh So, okay. We were up like every hour after that. Hey, Engine, we're going on a call. We'll be back.
00:23:17
Chris
Hey, Engine, we're back from the call. Just wanted to let you know. Next morning, can't remember who it was. He was the lieutenant on the engine. They're like, that was messed up. I said, did you learn a lesson? Don't screw with the guy that's going to be up all night.
00:23:30
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:23:33
stupidjrpg
i I remember whenever we had big storms, I was always like, put me on ambulance because you would do nothing all night.
00:23:38
Chris
yeah
00:23:39
stupidjrpg
Nobody wants to go to the hospital in a storm. you know what you're going to be on the engine?
00:23:43
Chris
yeah yeah yeah chasing afas and lines down yeah but what do we do with the tree down yeah
00:23:44
stupidjrpg
Up all night. Jason bullshit.
00:23:51
stupidjrpg
I don't know why we even go to the tree down.
00:23:55
stupidjrpg
Again, my my driver, she's like, why do we go on this call? and I'm like, you know, I don't really have an answer to that question.
00:24:01
Chris
yeah
00:24:02
stupidjrpg
Why do we go on this call?
00:24:03
Chris
yeah Well, it's because dispatch they go through and they're like well, the police can't do anything. well They can't. Fire department must be able to handle it because for years we were the ones that just handle everything.
00:24:13
Chris
yeah.
00:24:14
stupidjrpg
Right, but there's a road department.
00:24:14
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:24:17
stupidjrpg
That's their job.
00:24:18
Chris
yeah I. Yeah. I don't understand that, but.
00:24:23
stupidjrpg
I mean, if it's a small tree, sure, I'll come take care of it, I guess.
00:24:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:24:28
stupidjrpg
But I get out there's some of these trees.
00:24:28
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:24:29
stupidjrpg
They're like the size of houses.
00:24:32
Chris
yeah Is the tree on fire? No. Is someone trapped underneath it? No. Then what do you want me to do?
00:24:38
stupidjrpg
Well, you got a direct traffic. I don't do direct traffic.
00:24:41
Chris
No.
00:24:41
stupidjrpg
That's not my job.
00:24:41
Chris
Yeah, no. Yeah, no, no.
00:24:44
stupidjrpg
Send somebody else.
00:24:45
Chris
Yeah. I will say, every now and again, there is somebody who will call for an ambulance in the middle of a storm.
00:24:52
stupidjrpg
It does happen.
00:24:52
Chris
It's usually somebody that's had, like, you know, ah hurt toe for five days or something.
00:24:57
stupidjrpg
yes Yeah, yes, yes.
00:24:57
Chris
Stupid. Because there was one night... but We had that and got there and had the stretcher waiting. The bottoms opened up.
00:25:10
Chris
There's like an inch of standing water on the stretcher. I'm not sitting there. I'll get wet. We're all soaking wet, ma'am. Get on the goddamn stretcher.
00:25:19
stupidjrpg
i
00:25:20
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:25:20
stupidjrpg
but I was going to say I have the same exact story. I remember we went to Field Drive and like this the bottom jumped out of the...
00:25:23
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:25:32
stupidjrpg
I mean, the it was dumping rain on us.
00:25:32
Chris
yeah yeah
00:25:34
stupidjrpg
And this lady had the goddamn nerve to say, well, I'm going to get wet. And we're like, we look like drowned rats just in the walk from the ambulance to the...
00:25:39
Chris
yeah
00:25:42
Chris
yeah
00:25:44
stupidjrpg
You know, we move the stretcher. We sit there and get... And she's like... Well, my leg hurts and going to have to carry me. Okay, I'm going to put you on this stretcher and we're going to go.
00:25:54
Chris
yeah
00:25:54
stupidjrpg
Well, I'm going to get wet. Well, I don't have a waterproof stretcher. So sizzy doesn't have but this thing doesn't have an all-weather cover.
00:25:59
Chris
yeah
00:26:03
Chris
Yeah, we don't have an abimini top for it.
00:26:06
stupidjrpg
Man.
00:26:06
Chris
God.
00:26:07
stupidjrpg
And then, ah because that was the day we were so mad because ah structure fire had come out.
00:26:08
Chris
Hmm.
00:26:15
stupidjrpg
And right after we had got dispatched to this call.
00:26:18
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:26:18
stupidjrpg
So we're on this call for a freaking lady with leg pain. Get her, and instead she gives us crap because it's Rhett. The damn stretcher. I mean, like thats the the sheet's translucent on the stretcher.
00:26:25
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:26:28
stupidjrpg
It's so wet.
00:26:28
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:26:29
stupidjrpg
you know Get her in the back the ambulance. Get her to the hospital. we're pulling the hospital, another structure fire comes out. i was like, yoink, you're off the stretcher. We're leaving.
00:26:38
Chris
Yeah.
00:26:39
stupidjrpg
We got that fire. I was so annoyed.
00:26:41
Chris
Yeah, that one we had was at the ah trailer park.
00:26:44
stupidjrpg
oh
00:26:45
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, and we got her in the ambulance. I remember she's like, well, do you at least have a towel? And my partner grabs one of the towels from the back of the cot that is saturated.
00:26:57
Chris
Here you go. It's like, bravo, sir. Bravo.
00:27:03
stupidjrpg
it's
00:27:03
Chris
Hmm.
00:27:03
stupidjrpg
It's just the things people expect us to do.
00:27:08
Chris
Yeah.
00:27:09
stupidjrpg
yeah And look, 99% of the people are so thankful for what we do and what we're willing to do.
00:27:15
Chris
Oh yeah. Yeah. Yep.
00:27:19
stupidjrpg
And they are so thankful because we'll help them up. and we in know were
00:27:22
Chris

00:27:23
stupidjrpg
But there's that 1% that really ruined for everybody else.
00:27:26
Chris
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
00:27:28
stupidjrpg
I mean, that VFIL drive call was...
00:27:29

They were so excited to go to Thunderbolts, just like opening weekend. I'm like... Nothing sounds less exciting than going to Thunderbolts opening weekend. so
00:30:50
Chris
um Yeah, there's so many people.
00:30:56
stupidjrpg
The last movie... that I was excited for and I was disappointed by, and it was that Napoleon movie.
00:31:03
Chris
Oh, yeah, with them.
00:31:06
stupidjrpg
Joaquin Phoenix.
00:31:07
Chris
Yes.
00:31:09
stupidjrpg
Um, that was the last movie I went to the theater for, I would say.
00:31:10
Chris
Oh, there's the Avatar Fire and Ash.
00:31:15
stupidjrpg
I've never seen a single Avatar movie. Wait, is that the cartoon or the, the blue, I've not seen either one.
00:31:17
Chris
Good for you. Neither have I.
00:31:20
Chris
No, the blue people.
00:31:23
Chris
Yeah. This could be exciting.
00:31:25
stupidjrpg
Uh,
00:31:27
Chris
2025 upcoming movies, Bollywood.
00:31:31
stupidjrpg
Sure. I'm sure they're good.
00:31:35
Chris
Probably.
00:31:39
stupidjrpg
And I'll probably watch Thunderbolts in my house.
00:31:45
stupidjrpg
I don't care about Superman at all. Because I guarantee...
00:31:48
Chris
I will watch it when it comes to streaming.
00:31:51
stupidjrpg
Sure, but I guarantee the first 15 minutes of Superman is going to be the same 15 minutes of every other stupid Superman movie they made.
00:31:59
Chris
This says Crypto, the super dog.
00:32:03
stupidjrpg
Yeah, but I don't need to see his origin story again.
00:32:07
Chris
ah There's Bonjour Tristesse. This new adaptation of Francois Sagan's lusty, stylish, coming-of-age novel about a Playboy father and his teenage daughter on the French Riviera.
00:32:20
stupidjrpg
definitely, i you know, hits me right heartstrings.
00:32:23
Chris
Yeah. The Rust movie is finally coming out.
00:32:27
stupidjrpg
Don't care.
00:32:28
Chris
The Alec Baldwin.
00:32:29
stupidjrpg
Yeah, yeah.
00:32:30
Chris
Yeah. Ooh, The Surfer.
00:32:32
stupidjrpg
Don't care.
00:32:33
Chris
Tensions are high on a locals-only beach when Nicolas Cage and his son return to try to catch some waves.
00:32:35
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:32:39
stupidjrpg
I saw the ads for that.
00:32:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:41
stupidjrpg
I don't know what the hell I was watching. I saw the ads for that. i was like, what the hell is this movie?
00:32:48
Chris
Hmm.
00:32:48
stupidjrpg
Is it a horror movie?
00:32:50
Chris
I don't know.
00:32:51
stupidjrpg
Yeah. weird
00:32:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:57
Chris
This is a great teaser. Friendship. Paul Rudd and comedian Tim Robinson star in this absurd comedic film about male camaraderie. Okay.
00:33:07
stupidjrpg
All I've heard about that movie is people are saying it's actually funny.
00:33:10
Chris
yeah Well, I mean, Paul Rudd's a funny guy, so...
00:33:12
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:33:15
Chris
ah Yeah. I don't... Yeah.
00:33:23
Chris
Oh, there's the... Yeah. Remake of Romeo and Juliet. This time, it's Juliet and Romeo.
00:33:30
stupidjrpg
Oh, man.
00:33:31
Chris
Shakespeare's star-crossed lovers get the pop music treatment in this colorful take starring Clara Rougard and Jamie Ward.
00:33:31
stupidjrpg
Doc.
00:33:39
stupidjrpg
You just said everything that makes me not want to go to the movie.
00:33:39
Chris
It's a musical this time.
00:33:43
Chris
Right. Oh, here's one for me. Clown in a Cornfield.
00:33:48
stupidjrpg
Oh, that sounds like up your alley.
00:33:49
Chris
This slasher from director Eli Craig features a killer named Friendo. That's all it says.
00:33:57
stupidjrpg
Nice.
00:33:59
Chris
Oh, there's a new Final Destination movie.
00:34:03
stupidjrpg
Nope, okay, don't care.
00:34:04
Chris
Yeah, no, no. Ooh, Love. This Norwegian film about two healthcare workers discussing relationship philosophies closes out um Dag Johan Huggard's Sex, Dreams, and Love trilogy.
00:34:21
stupidjrpg
Okay.
00:34:22
Chris
All right, yeah.
00:34:26
Chris
yeah Oh yeah, there's your Mission Impossible, The Final Reckoning.
00:34:29
stupidjrpg
Mine. so if I have anything to do with the movie.
00:34:31
Chris
Yeah. Oh yeah, that's yours.
00:34:33
stupidjrpg
ah i was I was the executive producer on that.
00:34:35
Chris
Hmm. Yeah, yeah.
00:34:40
stupidjrpg
I just, I don't know. like like I don't know what it would take to get me back into movies again.
00:34:48
Chris
Well, one, if you didn't have to take out a second mortgage to go to them.
00:34:52
stupidjrpg
That's very fair. but top of that, like...
00:34:58
stupidjrpg
they They had me with the Avengers, right? Like, I went to see every stupid Avengers movie in theater.
00:35:01
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:35:04
stupidjrpg
And there's a part of me that... I'm totally... Look, I don't need artsy-fartsy movies because I...
00:35:10
Chris
Yeah, no.
00:35:10
stupidjrpg
I don't want to think. Right?
00:35:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:13
stupidjrpg
i don't want I don't want to have to... Like, oh, the clown represents his inner demons. and don't I don't need that shit in my life. Um...
00:35:23
Chris
yeah
00:35:23
stupidjrpg
And maybe Thunderbolts would be great. I bet it will be great.
00:35:25
Chris
Yeah. yeah
00:35:28
stupidjrpg
But I still care.
00:35:30
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:31
stupidjrpg
haven't seen a Marvel movie.
00:35:35
stupidjrpg
I think the last one I watched was Doctor Strange and the Multiverse.
00:35:38
Chris
Oh god, that was not good.
00:35:40
stupidjrpg
It was fine. It was fine.
00:35:43
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it wasn't like, oh, my yeah, like you said, it wasn't like end game or anything like that.
00:35:48
stupidjrpg
Now, now.
00:35:52
stupidjrpg
I that's the problem with the Marvel movies, though, is they had such a great run.
00:35:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:58
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:59
stupidjrpg
It's hard to get that magic back. Like, you know, it's not like
00:36:02
Chris
Right. Yeah. No, you're absolutely right. Yeah.
DC vs. Marvel Movies
00:36:05
stupidjrpg
DC.
00:36:05
stupidjrpg
Anything DC put out could be better than everything else they put out because all they put out is trash.
00:36:06
Chris
Oh, God. Yeah. ah Yeah. Yeah.
00:36:13
stupidjrpg
It's not difficult.
00:36:14
Chris
Yeah. No.
00:36:16
stupidjrpg
And DC really disappoints me.
00:36:16
Chris
Well...
00:36:18
stupidjrpg
As Superman, this is this is my argument again. They're putting out another Superman. Which, whatever, I didn't watch any of the Henry Cavill Superman.
00:36:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:27
stupidjrpg
Supermans? I don't know how you pluralize these supermanses.
00:36:29
Chris
Super... Manz's?
00:36:32
stupidjrpg
um But you have so many other characters in your repertoire of DC.
00:36:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:36
stupidjrpg
And I think that's one thing Marvel's doing well is they're like, look, we have this guy.
00:36:36
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:36:39
stupidjrpg
We'll just pull him in.
00:36:41
Chris
Yeah. Oh, my God.
00:36:43
stupidjrpg
There's so many DC characters you're not seeing in anything.
00:36:46
Chris
Mm-hmm. Well, so supposedly they're making a Clayface movie.
00:36:51
stupidjrpg
Oh, interesting.
00:36:52
Chris
Yeah. Which, that could be neat, you know, if especially if it goes into his, you know, like, kind of multiple personality issues.
00:36:58
stupidjrpg
Sure.
00:36:59
Chris
and Yeah.
00:37:01
stupidjrpg
Have you watched the Penguin?
00:37:03
Chris
Yeah.
00:37:04
stupidjrpg
Is it good?
00:37:05
Chris
it's It's not bad. it's definitely a different take on it, but it, you know... Yeah, ah Batman is like referenced, but that's it. So it really shows you like the gritty crime boss versus crime boss kind of thing.
00:37:20
Chris
So.
00:37:20
stupidjrpg
Like, DC's doing well in the series stuff. Right?
00:37:25
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
00:37:27
stupidjrpg
I guess. This can't put out a movie to save their lives.
00:37:28
Chris
Yeah, I mean, yeah, no. Well, and they keep rebooting and rebooting and rebooting and
00:37:35
stupidjrpg
Right. That's what I'm saying. Like, there are other...
00:37:37
Chris
Or even when they have like multiple projects going, they're like, oh yeah, but these have nothing to do with each other. It's like, that doesn't make sense. Because that's the nice thing about Marvel.
00:37:46
stupidjrpg
There are other...
00:37:47
Chris
You're like, oh, well I'm watching yeah the Daredevil show and they're talking about Skrulls and Spider-Man and all these other things.
00:38:00
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:38:00
Chris
yeah which did Did you watch the new Daredevil season?
00:38:03
stupidjrpg
haven't watched any of
00:38:04
Chris
Oh, it actually it is good
00:38:07
stupidjrpg
it.
00:38:08
Chris
And there's a couple of the episodes that have nothing to do with the Daredevil side, and it's all about like the lawyer side, and it's like, yeah.
00:38:17
stupidjrpg
Do I have to watch like six episodes before it starts to get good?
00:38:20
Chris
No.
00:38:21
stupidjrpg
Because that was the problem with the first Daredevil series. Everybody's like, if you watch if you get through the first six episodes, then the seventh one is really worth watching.
00:38:24
Chris
Yeah.
00:38:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:38:29
Chris
Yeah, no, I thought they were all good.
00:38:32
stupidjrpg
Okay.
00:38:33
Chris
yeah
00:38:33
stupidjrpg
Then I'll have to go to the chats.
00:38:35
Chris
Yeah, it it's a little it's a little I don't know, not disjointed, but you can tell that it was supposed to be originally it was supposed to be like 16 episode season and then they split it.
00:38:35
stupidjrpg
We just started watching Andor, so...
00:38:49
stupidjrpg
Oh.
00:38:50
Chris
So they reshot some things. But yeah. No. So what do you say you're watching?
00:38:56
stupidjrpg
Andor?
00:38:58
Chris
Oh, yeah, I can't. don't know.
00:39:00
stupidjrpg
Man, Andor's so good.
00:39:03
Chris
I like my Star Wars with lightsabers.
00:39:06
stupidjrpg
Oh, it's so much better than that. It's like, oh man, i you're watching we just started watching last night. We just started the new season. It's such a cool take on the rebellion.
00:39:23
stupidjrpg
Like, how did the rebellion start?
00:39:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:39:27
stupidjrpg
How does this all work? That's cool to me.
00:39:30
Chris
Yeah. I don't know.
00:39:31
stupidjrpg
It's like the normal side. I liked it. I've liked it. I liked season one. um and I will say because that's kind of like why Rogue One was good to me because like oh that's cool that they went over it's just normal people doing shit
00:39:36
Chris
Hmm.
00:39:46
Chris
Yeah. I don't know. I don't like Ian Cassian's character.
00:39:52
stupidjrpg
oh really you like casting an Andor well yeah you have to watch the
00:39:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:39:56
Chris
No, he just seems like a jerk.
00:40:01
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:04
stupidjrpg
The universe is against the dude.
00:40:08
stupidjrpg
He's kind of a jerk already, and then it just gets bad.
00:40:10
Chris
yeah yeah well suck it up and get some force powers yeah
00:40:17
stupidjrpg
I'll take one force powers, please.
00:40:19
Chris
yeah exactly yeah well maybe if he had leveled that up instead of leveling up his douchebaggery yeah yeah go to is it k2so respec there you go fixed
00:40:36
stupidjrpg
See, I like that they're exploring the non-Jedi part of the universe.
00:40:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:43
stupidjrpg
I think that's cool. It's kind of like I thought Rebels was going because Rebels started that way and then they blew right into ah into the Jedi stuff.
00:40:50
Chris
Yeah. yeah
00:40:56
stupidjrpg
But yeah, I mean, just going back to my topic, it's just like none of these movies, none of them are going to be better experiences than just watching them my house.
00:41:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:41:04
Chris
Right. Oh, yeah. I might.
00:41:06
stupidjrpg
I guess the only thing I can say is i won't make time and I just won't watch them at home.
00:41:13
Chris
yeah yeah i have definitely found myself lately like i'll watch snippets of things like i'll put something on the ipad or whatever when i'm on the treadmill or on the bike working on a puzzle yeah
00:41:28
stupidjrpg
I just can't seem to care.
00:41:31
Chris
yeah well so i've been re-watching all the aliens and predator movies
00:41:38
stupidjrpg
Mmm.
00:41:38
Chris
Because Kind of kind of Funny was is doing a rewatch and like you know every week they'll talk about one of them.
00:41:39
stupidjrpg
That's a tough rough.
00:41:47
Chris
Yeah, some of them are not good. um
00:41:50
stupidjrpg
There's only...
00:41:50
Chris
But...
00:41:51
stupidjrpg
Out of that both series, there's only three good movies.
00:41:56
Chris
Yeah.
00:41:56
stupidjrpg
There's three good... Three that are like, eh, I can watch these.
00:41:58
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:01
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:01
stupidjrpg
And then there's a lot of doll crap.
00:42:04
Chris
I will say Romulus was good.
00:42:04
stupidjrpg
Like...
00:42:06
stupidjrpg
i've heard I haven't watched it. I've heard Ron Willis is good. I mean, Alien, Aliens, and Predator. Those are amazing films.
00:42:13
Chris
Yeah. Yep. Yeah.
00:42:16
stupidjrpg
Predator 2 is just terrible.
00:42:18
Chris
God awful. Yeah.
00:42:20
stupidjrpg
um
00:42:21
Chris
Which did you three?
00:42:21
stupidjrpg
Aliens... Well, that's Rebirth? Right.
00:42:26
Chris
No, three is where they're on the prison planet.
00:42:32
stupidjrpg
Right.
00:42:32
Chris
and She has to shave her head and all that.
00:42:35
stupidjrpg
Which is the one where she makes love to the alien?
00:42:36
Chris
now That's the fourth one?
00:42:40
stupidjrpg
Okay, that one's really bad.
00:42:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:43
stupidjrpg
Alien 3 is also bad.
00:42:44
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:45
stupidjrpg
ah Prometheus was fine.
00:42:49
Chris
Weird. Yeah. And so was Covenant.
00:42:53
stupidjrpg
Covenant was fine?
00:42:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:56
stupidjrpg
ah Alien vs. Predator? Totally worth watching.
00:42:59
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's just a... Yeah.
00:43:02
stupidjrpg
it's not It's not good, but it's totally worth watching.
00:43:03
Chris
It's dumb action. Yeah.
00:43:05
stupidjrpg
Yeah. i didn't watch
00:43:07
Chris
It's like, that's a little kid smashing toys together. I mean, that's...
00:43:11
stupidjrpg
I didn't watch the Predator Native American one. i don't know if that was any good.
00:43:15
Chris
Oh, I haven't either. Prey.
00:43:17
stupidjrpg
Yeah, Prey. I haven't seen that one.
00:43:17
Chris
Yeah, that's... Yeah. I will say Predators with Adrian Brody.
00:43:23
stupidjrpg
Oh, yeah.
00:43:24
Chris
Not bad.
00:43:25
stupidjrpg
was fine.
00:43:26
Chris
Well, and I didn't realize until this rewatch and listening to Kind of Funny that that is supposed to be the direct sequel kind of to Predator. So just like you had alien to aliens, this was supposed to be predator to predators.
00:43:42
Chris
was like, Hmm. Hmm. Okay. Yeah.
00:43:46
stupidjrpg
yeah but three of those movies are that aliens is the one i was thinking about because i was the other day covenant was on at work i was watching covenant while i was doing reports and um i was like man this movie is bonkers
00:43:48
Chris
Yeah.
00:43:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:43:56
Chris
yeah
00:44:03
Chris
yeah
00:44:03
stupidjrpg
Like, who made this movie? Like, it is insane.
00:44:06
Chris
yeah
00:44:07
stupidjrpg
And it's like, they started a franchise and then stopped giving a crap about
Alien and Predator Franchises
00:44:12
stupidjrpg
it immediately.
00:44:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:14
stupidjrpg
And then immediately we're like, we don't care what this thing is.
00:44:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:17
stupidjrpg
It becomes way out of control.
00:44:18
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:21
Chris
Right. Yeah. But the number of lines that I can quote from aliens and predator.
00:44:22
stupidjrpg
Like...
00:44:26
stupidjrpg
Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:44:27
Chris
Yeah.

Chris
No. Yeah.
00:44:32
stupidjrpg
But...
00:44:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:33

Chris
Yeah.
00:44:42
Chris
Yeah, oh yeah, I agree.
00:44:44
stupidjrpg
it's got It's got to be in the combination for the top.
00:44:47

stupidjrpg
And Alien is got to be one of the best horror movies ever made.
00:44:51

00:45:41
Chris
yeah
00:45:43
stupidjrpg
Because you're like, man, they saw how good this movie was and said, we don't give a shit.
00:45:50
Chris

00:46:06
Chris
It's totally different. Like him and Ripley were supposed to go after Newt because something happened. Her pod got separated. and i don't know. But
00:46:16
stupidjrpg
Can't tell you
00:46:17
Chris
yeah.
00:46:17
stupidjrpg

00:46:17
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Newt is not.
00:46:21
stupidjrpg
yeah Because I don't think Ridley Scott gives a crap about aliens at all.
00:46:25
Chris
No.
00:46:27
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:46:27
Chris
Just give me money.

00:46:35
stupidjrpg

00:46:40
stupidjrpg
No.
00:46:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:46:43
stupidjrpg
They got my money.
00:46:44

00:46:51
stupidjrpg
No. What are you talking about?
00:46:52
Chris
No. No. What? Come on
00:46:57
stupidjrpg
What?
00:46:57
Chris
The final battle on Mustafar? It's in that in RPX.
00:47:01
stupidjrpg
Yeah. Yeah. It's fine.
00:47:05
Chris
yeah
00:47:07
stupidjrpg
Look. I'm okay. There's three Star Wars movies. And a fourth one that I want to watch sometimes.
00:47:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:14
stupidjrpg
And that fourth one is Rogue One. That's fine. I... ah
00:47:21
Chris
Well, there will be another one coming up that you might want to watch the Mandalorian and Grogu.
00:47:21
stupidjrpg
I can't.
00:47:27
stupidjrpg
No.
00:47:28
Chris

00:47:28
stupidjrpg
No. I don't think so.
00:47:30
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:31
stupidjrpg
i
00:47:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:35
stupidjrpg
I'm okay.
00:47:36
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:36
stupidjrpg
The show was fine. I don't think it was near as good as people gave it credit for. I think people were like, it's better than the three sequels, so we're just going to love on this.
00:47:45
Chris
Mm-hmm. Exactly. Well, I mean, I think that was definitely part of it.
00:47:49
stupidjrpg
Right? Like, like,
00:47:50
Chris
Yeah. it still ties to Rebels, I think, that yeah got a lot of people.
00:47:52
stupidjrpg
Yeah, yeah, there was there were little ties and people were like, oh, that's cool.
00:47:55
Chris
um
00:47:56
stupidjrpg
It was fine, but...
00:47:57
Chris
Yeah. yeah
00:47:59
stupidjrpg
I mean, the three sequels are so bad. They're not even watchable. They're just terrible.
00:48:06
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:48:09
stupidjrpg
I'm sorry. I hate... I don't want everyone to crap on somebody's... If you really like those movies, more power to you.
00:48:16
Chris
Yeah. But I don't know how.
00:48:21
stupidjrpg
I don't either.
00:48:22
Chris
Yeah. I mean, yeah, you you took Luke and you just wiped your ass with him. Hmm.
00:48:29
stupidjrpg
and
00:48:31
Chris
And, yeah. Oh, you could have explored all this stuff with Leia and, you know, her actually being trained by Luke and learning.
00:48:33
stupidjrpg
And Han Solo...
00:48:40
stupidjrpg
You could have just not done anything with Han Solo.
00:48:43
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:44
stupidjrpg
Right? You could have just... Harrison Ford doesn't want to do it.
00:48:46
Chris
Yeah. Right.
00:48:48
stupidjrpg
We don't have to even mention him.
00:48:49
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:50
stupidjrpg
and And we were like, he's off doing Han Solo shit. You never have to think about it.
00:48:53
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:48:55
stupidjrpg
And everybody would have fine.
00:48:56
Chris
But here are him and Leia's twins who are Force-sensitive.
00:49:00
stupidjrpg
Oh, well.
00:49:04
Chris
owen yeah Here's Mara Jade.
00:49:06
stupidjrpg
Oh, yeah, well. in ah In a better world.
00:49:10
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:12
stupidjrpg
it's It's definitely you need
00:49:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:15
stupidjrpg
Star Wars needs an enema. Like, somebody needs to be... Somebody who gives a shit. And I guess now that Dave Filoni is actually in charge of things.
00:49:25
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:26
stupidjrpg
Maybe that'll happen, but...
00:49:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:28
stupidjrpg
Somebody has to be like, this can't be.
00:49:30
Chris
Right.
00:49:30
stupidjrpg
You can't can have three movies of... ridli you know Daisy, whatever the hell her name is, and then never talk about it and just be like, oh yeah, she's like Palpatine's granddaughter.
00:49:37
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:44

Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:50:04
stupidjrpg
Oh, but if we throw...
00:50:05
Chris
yeah If only there was a trilogy that would make more sense, like Thrawn.
00:50:05
stupidjrpg
a
00:50:10
stupidjrpg
Yeah. We'll just throw Lando Calrissian and you'll see him for three seconds.

00:50:36
Chris

00:50:39
stupidjrpg
felt rewarding.
00:50:41
Chris
Hmm.
00:50:41
stupidjrpg
We're going to have this whole scene but with Benicio Del Toro and Finn and Rose.
00:50:47
Chris
Oh, my God. Yeah.
00:50:49
stupidjrpg

stupidjrpg
Right.
00:50:55

00:53:47
Chris

00:53:47
stupidjrpg
In April. No, it's now May, but it wasn't.

stupidjrpg
Stony crabs for you.
00:53:56
Chris
um Yeah. yeah fish
00:54:02
stupidjrpg
I mean, the ironic answer would be to be a shark.
00:54:05
Chris
Yeah. i I was figuring you were to do that.
00:54:15
stupidjrpg
But like a...
00:54:15
Chris
I'd want to be a nurse shark.
00:54:17
stupidjrpg
I'd like to be like a thresher shark.
00:54:19
Chris
Hmm.
00:54:20
stupidjrpg
One of those like big ocean going voyaging sharks.
00:54:24
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:25
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:54:27
Chris
I'd say nurse shark because, I mean, nobody hunts that or fishes that.
00:54:31
stupidjrpg
Hmm.
00:54:31
Chris
Yeah. Kind of just chilling.
00:54:34
stupidjrpg
you're going to be a shark, I want to be able to take other people out with me.
00:54:38
Chris
Maybe a great white. Oh, a bull shark.
00:54:41
stupidjrpg
Both sharks don't really kill lot people.
00:54:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:43
stupidjrpg
They just, know they ah really beam a lot of people.
00:54:45
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:46
stupidjrpg
Yeah. oh
00:54:47
Chris
but it's It's the long term, though, because the infection sets in.
00:54:48
stupidjrpg
yeah It's true. It's true. I mean, a great way be cool, but you're basically kind of stuck to one little area. Thrasher shark, you're like everywhere.
00:54:59
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:59
stupidjrpg
you don't want to be a tiger shark because you're just eating everything.
00:55:02
Chris
Oh my gosh, yeah. Yeah.
00:55:04
stupidjrpg
Yeah. The garbage bales of the sea. Yeah.
00:55:06
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Or be one of those weird like goblin sharks or whatever that lives miles below.
00:55:12
stupidjrpg
What's the one in Antarctica? Or not in art in the Arctic Sea?
00:55:15
Chris
and
00:55:15
stupidjrpg
The Greenland shark.
00:55:16
Chris
The Greenland? Yeah.
00:55:17
stupidjrpg
Yeah, that thing lives forever.
00:55:19
Chris

00:55:21
stupidjrpg
Yeah, yeah.
00:55:22
Chris
Yeah. Crazy.
00:55:25
Chris
Hmm. oh All right. um Reptile amphibian.
00:55:33
stupidjrpg
I mean...
00:55:37
stupidjrpg
the question is...
00:55:38
Chris
Do you want to live forever? You're a tortoise.
00:55:41
stupidjrpg
Well, hu yeah, that's good. that's And if you're looking for good karma, you don't want a snake. Right? going Killing things. If you're tortoise,
00:55:49
Chris
Yeah. But I mean, and so many people fear snakes.
00:55:52
stupidjrpg
hate you. Yeah.
00:55:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:55:54
stupidjrpg
Yeah.
00:55:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:55:57
stupidjrpg
A tortoise is really good answer. That's a really good answer.
00:56:02
Chris
Yeah, see, I would think a sea turtle.
00:56:04
stupidjrpg
Oh, man. Now just living the life. Just cruising around.
00:56:06
Chris
You're just cruising around.
00:56:09
stupidjrpg
Hope the shark doesn't bite you.
00:56:11
Chris
Yeah, by I mean, that's the unfortunate thing. But again, you live for a really long time. mean, you live to the point where barnacles grow on you.
00:56:16
stupidjrpg
Yeah. yeah
00:56:21
stupidjrpg
You gotta get through the first day though, which really sucks.
00:56:25
Chris
Yeah, that yeah, that first like four hours.
00:56:28
stupidjrpg
The mad dash to the sea. Yeah. That part really sucks.
00:56:31
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:56:35
stupidjrpg
Turtle seems like some sort of turtle seems like the way to go.
00:56:39
Chris
Yeah.
00:56:40
stupidjrpg
They seem like they live a good life.
00:56:40
Chris
Cause you got some built armor. Yeah.
00:56:42
stupidjrpg
ah You got built-in armor. You basically sit in the sun all day.
00:56:46
Chris
