Can I assume, Gil, you nevar saw DLM in all its unedited Showtime glory?
Yah, you got that right Alvie. Saw the first two episodes on Sci-Fi tonight. Showtime? What’s that?
*whine* Man, we always come after that Fat Cock.
But at least we outnumber him!
Finally got to listen to the VM show. Looks like The Fat Cock was a success. I’m impressed with just how much Fat Cock M&E were able to take.
Dammit Ed you got a way with words!
Fat Balls is teh_jealous… thats all.

>>>Looks like The Fat Cock was a success.
I’m sorry, I listened to this on the live feed and didn’t find it funny then and when I relistened to it on the podcast thinking maybe it was just the mood I was in Sat, but ya know while one or two of those type of VMs is kinda amusing, this was just plain dumb. It went on too long and really there was no payoff for the joke. C’mon if you guys are gonna pull a joke or something on the guys…….be creative and do something funny.
On a more positive note…….it was great having all the gang back together for a VM show finally. And again….my comment wasn’t meant to be a insult to anyone, I just didn’t see the point (or humor) of it.
Wow…
Well let me assure that that your kind words will only make me want to do more of this, if only to piss you off. Congrats on making us stronger…
It wasnt a “joke”. It was an homage to Jacks cast. Thats it.
>>>Well let me assure that that your kind words will only make me want to do more of this, if only to piss you off. Congrats on making us stronger…
Geez Alvie…….all I said really was that I didn’t find it funny, and didn’t get the joke (or homage in this case) Did I insult anyone in particular personally ? ummm NO. So I don’t see why you would want to do something “just to piss me off” (as you put it)
I was under the impression that this section was for comments on the show (which my post was) If I’m mistaken on this point please correct me, and I’ll apologize to whoever needs it.
Look man, I it is for comments, and I assure you nothing is taken personal.. but dont go and say “it was plain dumb” and “cmon, do something creative and funny” and then try and quantify it by saying you werent meant to be insulting. Because when you do that you come off just like that Fork or Spork, or spunk, or whoevar that ass was that ripped you guys apart for WI 69.
Dont go and say creative critisism is what you wanted and turn around and not do it yourself.
Alvie there is a heck of a lot of differance between what I said and Spork’s comments. Mainly the fact that my comments didn’t delve into vulgar, graphic or obscene comments that were directed towards a particular individual as a personal attack.
Yes I did say be creative….and having the exact same joke repeated over and over didn’t seem all that creative to me (at least to me anyhow) Maybe it’s just my hick nature or something but I just didn’t see the funny in it is all.
And thats fine man, I know my ass doesnt smell like roses, but do you see what you did in that last paragraph just now? You presented your views in a manner that come off well. Had you done that in the first place we wouldnt even be having this conversation…
And sorry, when you use phrases like “plain dumb” its gonna be insulting…even if it shouldnt be.
OK I should have phrased things different, and for that I’m sorry. I tend to have an odd sense of humor ……h eck I coulnd’t stand “Office Space” and “Napolean Dynamite” and most folks think I’m nuts because of that too.
Peace?
::: passes Alvie some rose scented ass spray :::
Peace.
Wait, You didnt like Office Space?????
*steps on dove*
But Ill keep the ass spray thank you…
All I have to say on this matter Brad is: if you cant take it then dont dish it out.
Or more importantly stand up for what you think, dont do all this PC bullcrap.
Nope could not stand that flick at all. Hell I work in an office enviroment and I still didn’t get it. Christina thinks I’m nuts, but to me it’s along the same lines of “Dude Where’s My Car?”
Giving Alvie rose scented ass spray is PC bullcrap????
Oh wait….you meant that other thing didn’t you? Ah that’s over with, dead…it’s an ex-subject.
Oh you did NOT just say that……..
The “Dude Wheres my Car” reference I mean….
Man, our peace pact is rivaling the Middle East right now…
*teeters on the brink*
World peace is a crock….its human nature to be at each others necks. World Understanding might happen.
and Office Space is NOTHING like “Dude Wheres my car.”……”Dude” is just one of those beer, dick, drug, fart joke movies.
Office Space is like Shaun of the Dead……when you first watch it, its kinda funny, or maybe not that funny, but the more you watch it the more you get it and laugh.
“World Understanding”… Interesting…
and havent we learned anything from certain movies like Serenity- Miranda- totally peaceful planet everyone died or became batshit crazy.
Or in South Park movie- The song that Satan sings- “you cant have good unless you have evil, so it must be good to be evil sometimes”
A couple more movies that I despise and everyone else in the world seems to love:
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
A Christmas Story
Then dont watch them.
*South Park “Deep Thought theme” plays*
I think Ive learned something today…
You see, people fight because of views..they want to push thier beliefs on others because they think its right… but you cant push personal preference. Its like Paris Hilton not having sex for a year..it just cant happen. I think if we all realize we’re not the same, we’d actually be alot happuer…and thus, the same.
exactly……and we need some evil or we cant have good.
and speaking of that: *pushes Alvie in the mud puddle*
>>>Then dont watch them.
Good advice (and I don’t) but when I used to work in a video store it couldn’t be avoided.
And thus, learn how to type “happier”.
*lays in puddle*
My God, its becoming so clear now..
*Kicks Jason in the junk*
*cringe*
*high voice* Enlightenment is beautiful *falls over*
Nut shots??? C’mon I leave the board for a hour or two and you devolved into nut shots??? Geez louise!
Heh…
“Nut shots…”
And that is a problem how?
See! ditto loves his nut shots!!!!
Wait, ditto I totally dinna mean it like that.
ditto?
ditto please come back…
What are you talking about, Alvie. Ameretto is made out of almonds…
Oh…thats right…
*slaps head*
Doesn’t it hurt when you do that?
Whats that ditto?
I couldnt hear you, Im in a lot of pain.
This is my new name for a while.
wtf????
That was the most entertaining read evar
and all I have to say is……..
nut shots
Charlie the Crack Guy has a different podcast.
I really enjoyed watching and hearing “Op:FaCo” play itself out! You guys rawk.
“Shit, Evo, that’s all you had to say.”
Shit thats right… I remember Mike showing me a “Charlie the Crack Guy” at a Phoenix Walgreens once…
Sorry Charlie the Beer Guy… totally my fault.
Well, I have to say I agree with Brad. Operation Fat Cock had so much promise! But, Mike is the one editing the show, did he pull the VM that tied the others together for the punchline? It sure seemed like there was a *pause* lack of a boom at the end.
I loved Operation Fat Cock because it was fan driven. Anytime you get your fans to make something happen, you know you are on the right track. So I think we should bash MIKE…Hey Mr. Audio God, did you not play the one VM that would’ve made the joke?
Er, and no, it wasn’t fishie. It was Yellowtail and Albacore we sent to Charlie the Beer Guy who apparently has a smoker. Mmmm smoked fish! I think we should target the other Far Point Media people and really get the other fans pissed off.
On another note, I would like to see more of the fans like Alvie, Brad, Ian, Chris, Andrea, Jimmy (if he sells enough maggerzines), ditto, Jeremy, or whomever to take the helm and try out a WI episode. I certainly learned alot doing the 68.5 episode. (No, it wasn’t 69, dammit, it was supposed to be 68.5, Joe Murphy!)
Hat’s off to the creative people who took an idea and went running…to where I have no idea… but ran they did. I’d rather listen to ditto and Andrea anyday instead of “Gee, you guys have a great show, my mom made me listen and wow, I will try to meet you at DragonCon in my Spock uniform”.
….uhhhh….wuhzaaa…heheheh…..pthththpthth….
Karen…your albacore & yellowtail…my smoker…some sugar maple smouldering away…this, we call heaven.
Yknow what I call Heaven, Charlie? Um…”Heaven”.
Thanks for the thoughts/ideas Karen! And no, Mike dinna cut anything or “mess things up” or anything like that.. There was no punchline, no grand plan, nothing like that… The VM’s were strictly to make Jack smile. That was all we we’re tryin to do. And as long as that happened, then it was teh_successful.
And yeah, I totally agree with: I’d rather listen to ditto and Andrea anyday instead of “Gee, you guys have a great show, my mom made me listen and wow, I will try to meet you at DragonCon in my Spock uniform�.
No kids fat cock was what it was. Sorry.
It was a joke for Jack Mangan’s benefit and that was all it was. It accomplished exactly what we wanted it to. I am sorry it did not transfer well.. but in our point of view it was a complete success. I know it sounds crazy but its the truth
Woah!!!! Me and Andrea are totally connected at the cortex!!!!!
Alvie- we posted the same thing at the same time… hawesome
oooo so thats your cortex huh?
Saxy baby, very saxy
AND AGAIN!!!!!
Sooooo sexy…
