I seem to recall reading something around the acquisition about how CV was actually more profitable than GB. I may be wrong, but it kind of makes sense, because there's much lower overhead costs to a comic site with 2 people than a video game site with super long videos and a staff of 6+ people.

Rorie on the Bombcast tomorrow? Hope they could get Drew in there too

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
Comic Vine gets a lot of traffic because they have one of the best wikis out there, I guess the articles aren't the main reason.
They talked about a 3-man podcast before mentioning Rorie... and considering that Ryan is likely out for the week, and Vinny is out until BART is no longer on strike, I'm not sure who else that 3rd person could possibly be.

First official video of Giantbomb Midwest!
Patrick is the best.
...
;_;
Thanks for this that Boss fight was great to watch! I might have to jump back into Dark Souls now, as he is up to where I got to before I got frustrated and gave up last year.

watching patrick's monday vid reminded me....why hasnt jeff done a house tour, surly hes got a wireless camera or a phone with high enough resolution but he always blamed the webcam for the Jar episodes as why he can never "show us" when he talks about his game shelves/new washingmachine/ect...
Maybe he doesn't feel like showing off his entire house to the internet?
Yeah I use their Wiki quite often when I have to look up some comic book stuff.
Did we see a lot of his house in the CollectSHUN GOTY video?
Hah have you seen what www.klepekpower.com redirects to.

I haven't had any twitch issues with comcast.
I get the occasional lag from time to time i suspect that isn't always on my end since almost everyone else in twitch chat is also complaining.
This is awesome. What school? I live in Illinois so I'm curious.
Well, whoever owns that domain now obviously did good things with it.
Ah, a classic!
Oh my...
You are telling me you don't know Weezer? You never heard Buddy Holly in your live? WTF?

Jonas or Sweater Song has to be more famous though, right? Right?
I always enjoy hearing El Scorcho, personally. It's dumb fun.

Jonas is up there but I think Buddy Holly and Say it Ain't so are way more famous. Island in the Sun probably as well.

But... Jeff referenced the sweater song in a Headboard song! My whole life is in shambles!
Nope. Never heard those songs. I know Buddy Holly the actual person, obviously. But as far as my taste in music goes, I'm pretty much a traditional country/folk/blues sort of guy. Don't keep up with much from the past 30 years. I've heard of Weezer and seen their logo, but it always pisses me off because it looks like a knock off of Waylon Jennings Flying W.
I am not saying those are the songs I think of when I think of great Weezer songs. Although Buddy Holly can still be fun.

Knowing Buddy Holly and the Crickets is much more important than knowing Weezer. It's okay.
I'm just kidding. Except the reference to the sweater song part.
When the video went up, I checked and it redirected to Klepek's Tumblr page.
Somebody changed that..

Why is the BART on strike? I find it fascinating that such a large transportation service can shut down.

Let's just all agree that The Red Album is their best followed closely by Maladroit and Hurley.
Their... other albums can be ranked in any order, really.

We're going to talk about expensive PC interface devices, motorcycles, North Korea, optimizing video production and you will LIKE IT.
A little Drew is better than no Drew. There is no downside to having him there.
Pay dispute. If the train drivers union goes on strike then it shuts down, can't just sub in temps for a specialist job like that.
Now they see who blinks first but the drivers want something like 20% and the latest offer was 8% rise over 4 years.

I'm currently watching 3 720p+ streams simultaneously on twitch without a hitch. I don't want to jump the gun, but it seems like my twitch nightmares may actually be over.
I'm sure you guys were on the edge of your seats waiting to hear when my twitch problems were solved.
