"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

Null not realizing that Rugrats was a show about Jews made me lose IQ points. Two of the most famous episodes were about Chanukah and Passover. It's not just Tommy's family that's Jewish—they all are. Except, I guess, the black one. Chucky's single father even married an Asian woman, which is like a Jewish trope.

I guess Josh just doesn't see race or ethnicity. MLK would be proud of you.

You should've been there live, we were going to stroke out watching Josh repeatedly run up to the black guy and get shot. Or walk straight past conspicuous map terminals.

Especially liked the part where chat was yelling at him that the circle/dot was his target and he was all like ‘what? where?’ as a big glowing unmissable dot stared back out of the screen.

It's understandable to forget details about a show that you haven't watched in 20 years. Rugrats is how I first learned about those two holidays, but I never made the connection at age 7 that these characters are all really super Jewish in all the episodes that weren't holiday specials.

They used to show those episodes to us when we were really young in Hebrew school, so it was just obvious to me. I guess if you a goy and have no reason to watch or remember those episodes in particular, then it wouldn't be obvious. But I don't recall any episodes explicitly about Christian holidays in the same way, so it did seem kinda obvious to me that the show came out of a Jewish mien.

At that age I got plenty of exposure to Jewish history through Veggietales in Sunday school. I just chalked it all up as old timey Bible stuff, I didn't make any distinction. It's totally on-brand for a modern Christian church to have a sermon on Passover, or any other Old Testament event, since it's all part of the Bible.

This Alien Isolation stream solidifies my belief that Josh would be better off playing Dishonored.
  • chapter-based format great for streams
  • option to choose stealth or violence
  • option to kill everyone or not kill anyone
  • F5 quicksaving
  • not spoopy

I feel like he’d like the Dishonored DLC where you kill a delusional woman who lies to herself. Don’t play 2, it’s just kinda shit. The DLC is the best sequel because it’s just a literal Thief spiritual successor.

@Null since you posted in the Jack Scalfani thread:

Petition to bring back the awful cooking bingo segment on the Fridays show, with cooking with Jack instead of Kay.
Click to expand...
I've only watched a handful of Jack's videos and it's been a while. This list needs expanding and probably correcting, especially figuring out what the free space would be.

appalling excess of liquids (eg; mayo-filled macaroni and bean soups on Salad Night; blood pooling from undercooked chicken)
raw meat (raw as in still raw as the end product)
shills his sauce or seasoning
antagonizes his family (eg; threatens his son; puts the call with his mom in the video after she says not to)
failed boomer humor (eg; Disney mug)
cusp of self awareness (eg; knows the party cheese salad looks/sounds abhorrent; says the undercooked chicken can go into the microwave)
narc holyman pose (eg; when tasting the party cheese salad)
obnoxious "MMMmMMMmmmmMM!"
noticeably confused (eg; the pork shoulder won't shred because it's fucking raw)
excuses for bad cooking (eg; clearly the meat claws are defective and that's why the pork shoulder won't shred)
dumb facial expression (sometimes on accident, sometimes he legit thinks it's enhancing the mood)
neckbeard/visibly unwashed

Alien Isolation may be the best thing to happen to the Alien franchise since Aliens.
