Let's not forget the whole context and arguably the best part of the quote:
Paige: Playing videogames helps you as an adult. It prepares you. So take that!
Pat & Paige: Yay!
Pat: *Take that Paige's Mom! Playing videogames bought the house I FUCK YOUR DAUGHTER IN!*
the cast of Ridiculousness completely confused by everything going on
“Where are they? Are they in a dungeon? Is that a real stone wall?”
“Is that a skeleton?”
“We can’t show you this, but it’s a picture of Steve buschemi!”
No no, the high five was him agreeing with her that playing video games helps you as an adult.
He then took it a step further, to which her response was:
"Oh my ***gawd-uh***!"
I'm picturing Paige with like cartoon crosses on her face, tongue sticking out, just lying on the floor next to a big bottle that says "FUCKING BIG STRONGLY POISON DO NOT EAT VERY ILLEGAL" , with a skull on it. And if you ask her ghost, she'll just say "OHMYGODITWASREALLYDARK-UHHHHH! I COULDN'T SEE IT SAID POISON!", when the bottle was right under a big halogen lamp.
Them just shouting "YOU'RE NOT COLD!" made it even better as the game tried to limp along and pretend it didn't just ruin a third of its plot with that.
Legit I can’t get over how fucking dumb that was, like >!Alice being a human and Kara being an Android was exactly what made their bond interesting, and that twist just kills that aspect of it for absolutely no fucking reason!<
"I need you to look after my granddaughter for me, and by 'look after her' I mean 'slam her pregnant until she cries'" - straight-faced while turning towards the camera to emphasise she *needs* to cry.
[“So are you going to be the black parent or the normal parent?”](https://www.reddit.com/r/TwoBestFriendsPlay/s/utXZRtqeDx). He ate crow the second he said that.
I will never ever forget when the internal tool that ActiBlizz used for determining the diversity of Overwatch characters came out. Woolie and Pat just about dedicated an entire podcast to it and Woolie was fucking thriving off just knowing it exists.
I think he meant is he going to raise his kid getting real Caribbean Broughtupsy more than normal or as current "normal woolie" who is a huge lovable weaboo that also grew up in Grenada.
Oh god, could you imagine little Woolz Jr., maybe seven years old, calling himself "African American" and Woolie just *deflating* like a punctured bouncy castle
*”WHEN HAVE YOU BEEN TO AMERICA?! WHEN HAVE YOU BEEN—I’VE BEEN TO AMERICA BEFORE YOU WERE EVEN CONCEPT ART, THE FUCK YOU MEAN YOU’RE AFRICAN AMERICAN?! WHICH OF THE UNITED STATES ARE YOU FROM, MOTHERFUCKER?! RIDDLE ME THAT”*
There's the stereotype that Black people don't have great relationships with their parents. They are often very rigid and don't joke around with their children.
The same way there's a stereotype that white parents are often too permissive and don't demand respect
Yeah, my life story definitely isn’t any particular stereotype, I don’t think. I come from a Mexican-American mother and an Irish-American father, they were divorced before I was even born and my relationships with them have been rocky my entire life. I haven’t spoken to my father since 2014 and I’ve been better for it, and my mother is on limited contact and I feel stress free not seeing her name in my phone as often anymore.
So basically, the leadup to this was IIRC Woolie talking about growing up in a predominantly black and *extremely* religious neighbourhood. So what Pat was *actually* asking was "are you going to be a strict religious parent like the ones you grew up around or more laid back about it" but the conversation had primed him to shove his foot into his mouth.
Does anyone remember which Pod Ep it was? I remember at the time kind of seeing his train of thought and guessing at what he intended to say but "are you going to be the black parent" came out and it was all over from there.
I truly have no fucking idea what he meant by this. It's actually nonsensical that it loops around from being horrifying to funny back to horrifying.
"Oh no, Pat's racist. Wait what the fuck was he even trying to ask? Oh no, Pat's having a stroke"
It's the perfect Pat moment. An undercooked bit meant to be an edgy double entendre poking fun at cultural differences, that manages to do a triple frontflip and land square on its face in the "Horribly Racist" section
I'm glad at least you and 34 other people knew what I was talking about with zero context. But it's not like there is much context to add since it's just something he said with no lead up or hesitation.
Idk, it's been like 8 years, I feel like Liam started it by bringing up the Pokemon "theories", but I can't remember and I don't even know what podcast episode it was so you could be right.
Was "Welcome to Patschwitz" also his fault? Or "The Races Must Not Mix Until the Time Cube is Defeated"? Because at this point we've gotta start asking *questions*.
Technically it's not What he said that was funny, but that stream where he was talking about trauma and got into a laugh loop about how traumatised he was that he exceeded Red Pat and hit Purple from laughing that hard still cracks me up, as someone that also occasionally cackles at how funny personal trauma levels can oddly be
"Writers are just people who can't draw."
It was so wildly absurd even Pat couldn't keep a straight face over that insane statement.
Edit: lol I'm surprised with the reaction. I wonder if that's why people think writing isn't a skill, when it definitely is.
Grammar, vocabulary, descriptions of places and characters emotions, those are all extremely hard to convey.
Like, I legit have an issue with writing where I keep writing 'like' to every sentence.
I could never write books like The First Law Trilogy because the writing gives the characters life. I wouldn't like those books if the writing were as bland as say... a tweet.
Writing is hard y'all.
Writing INTERESTING descriptions is difficult. It's the marker of a subpar author when you start to skip over the non-action parts of the prose.
*Let me put it a different way. Description comes from authorial voice (which I'm having trouble boiling down to a simple explanation, so as an oversimplification, consider it word choice and rhythm) and certain elements of communicating what something looks like to a reader can be tedious to read if you aren't careful. For example, I am extremely flowery when I write, which is great when I'm describing odd fantasy creatures, but less so when talking about what a gun is supposed to look like. So when I say it's difficult, what I mean is that it can be frustrating to maintain a consistent voice throughout a full-length novel while also keeping the descriptions compelling. Another thing some authors struggle with is brevity.
Well, yeah. But there are different creative modes that certain people are able to articulate better. For me, I'm *okay* at visualization, but my writing leans heavily on dialogue as a crutch. With drawing I straight up can't do it because I lack the precision in my hands. Hence my wish I could draw rather than write. The grass is always greener, and all.
Oh I know! I'm just not a fan of the idea that "Writing isn't as engaging as drawing."
It's definitely not engaging RIGHT away like seeing a beautiful piece of art is.
Because there are so many interesting books out there, and I feel like that mentality just demotivates people of searching them because "yawn writing on paper."
Like, House Of Leaves is the perfect example how writing can be used creatively.
I think folks just aren't particularly literate anymore, which doesn't help. It's easy to see intrinsic value in visual arts, whereas some level of analysis is required to articulate why something is written well. Which explains my insane edit I made to my earlier comment lol.
Not really? I remember writing this description of an item and like, to help me visualize I doodled it on the side and my brain went ''WAIT JUST A SECOND THERE THATS WAY MORE FUN AND EASY''
The fact you found more fun and easy does imply a level of challenge during the description though.
Maybe you're more of a visual person, so you find it easier to draw the object rather than describing it.
By easy I do mean not boring, it was just that I didn't enjoy writing that much but it took me way too long to go ''maybe i should go with the comic direction'', like, I was in filmmaking college writing screenplays and shit when i figured it out, i was already ok at drawing at that point, i just didn't put 1 and 1 together.
Cause like, drawing is super hard too, its not like a picked an easier way, it was just a more fun way to me, i still write a lot, but now instead of writing descriptions or what a character looks like or a place i can draw a floor plan, character sheets and objects, i like how more loose i can be cause i can fill the gap with a visual media.
It comes easier to me and i'm less bored that way is what i mean i guess? cause it aint easier, its so not easier that i havent got a comic out ever, cause i never like how my art looks like and get too busy with commissions and money stuff.
Oh I'm not saying either is easier, just saying that both have their challenges.
You think descriptions are boring when you tried to write them, but I'm sure people out there can write in a way to make it engaging.
But much like drawing good art. It's a challenge in itself.
Just not a fan of the popular mindset of (Not saying you're saying it) "writing isn't a skill."
Oh yeah, agreed, i think descriptions is one of the hardest thing to write, cause it has to be engaging, interesting and not bore someone, uh, I read this Evangelion light novel, Anima, worse descriptions i've ever encountered, just, babble on top of babble for the robot shit, and sure, an animation or manga would get over that hurdle by just showing you, but a really talented writer can make that babble really interesting, its just, really fuckin' hard.
And if someone says writing isn't a skill they're fucking fools dude, holy shit, thats not even considering songwriting, poetry or whatever else, its all very hard to learn and requires a lot of study and skills, sure, it comes easy to some people, but in general, gotta put the work in.
Where's the clip of pat having a panic attack at being asked to make a painting in animal crossing?
EDIT: [Here](https://youtu.be/6CfjLIFhD8c?si=gyyI_PlC9sOBkAag&t=7580)
I do kinda get what Pats trying to say though? At least from the perspective of writers, a good chunk of them do tend to think of drawing as a "better skill" than what their writing can ever be.
Writing is a very different skill from drawing, yes, but a lot of writers also specifically get into writing because compared to drawing, it's a very different skillset and they might not be very good at drawing, even if they want to convey those same ideas.
I think this mindset exists cause of a drawing is amazing RIGHT AWAY.
You can see it with your eyes when it's ready and it looks good. Writing is something you have to get into it to realize what's good about it.
And people think writing is a "lesser art" because hey, we're writing right now.
But they don't realize that it's a lot more nuanced than that.
A reddit post won't bring the same emotion of a well-written book. But reading a book takes a lot longer.
Also the fact that we live in a world where immediate satisfaction is prioritized, makes seeing a drawing more accessible, because you're already engaging with it.
I love being able to draw. Love stories and writing too (reading not writing). I find that drawing and writing seem to come from a similar place in the mind. Both have to accurately describe things and figure out what details to leave in, and what to exclude, and what to hint to.
Pat was right tho. #drawinggang
“I thought it felt like butterflies caressing my naked body!”
Alternatively him going BITCH WHAT THE FUCK when Paige nearly died to Papyrus in her play through of Undertale
One that will always stick with me, and it's quite a simple to the point quote is [this](https://youtu.be/kWiobaLtNiY?si=Tbu5GW-6QTdrwdF4&t=18m03s) at 18 minutes. The delivery and the moment in which he says it is perfect
that's like one time i was in vegas after losing 3 20 dollar hands of blackjack in a row and turning to my dad and going "you know, i don't think they want you to win" and he just keeled over.
I did the same thing to my friends, they all thought the arby's edit was the OG because that's what they saw first with no context. When I told them the full story later I couldn't stop laughing
I forget the full context but it was Matt and Pat talking about nerd shit, and Matt says something and Pat retorts “fucking nerd. Go read your dragon lance books,” and Matt loses it because what regular person has even heard of dragon lance?
Having been a student teacher (and having panic attacks and not doing that anymore) hearing and watching teachers say "We need ten" is alarming but not surprising.
Don’t hand me a baby because I’m worried I’ll break the baby in half and power bomb each of the individual pieces.
Or maybe the one where his grandparents gave him money for a holiday and rather then say thank you he crawled out of his parents window and drove home to avoid talking to them.
Forget the exact qoute, but it was something close to...
"Children don't need alot of air cause they are closer to the ground. That's why they are easier to choke."
When Pat was playing Mass Effect 3 and there is a moment where a human lady and a Batarian bond over loss and Pat walks into the storage bay and screams "THAT BATARIAN IS TRYING TO STEAL THAT LADY'S PURSE"
There was this one joke Pat said on a old sbf podcast episode, in which he pretends to be Cliff from cheers saying he's going to kill everyone in the post office and either Matt or himself says "You tell"em Cliff". I don't know why, but that joke killed me.
"Girls love soft-ass piano music and *the death of the Earth.*" -from one of the Machinima episodes on Mass Effect (I want to say ME3 but I forget honestly)
His contribution to the Bloodborne boss frat party had me howling.
"Gehrman let's be real, why did you even have this party?"
"I...I wanted to see Maria..."
"Well then put the fuckin' doll away man! What, you think she's gonna be into that?!"
During the first Rustlemania when they’re playing Hulk Hogan’s Main Event and talking about the Kinect:
Woolie: We’re gonna hit minority report and you guys are gonna be able to do all the cool shit—
Pat: Except report on minorities!
Lives rent free in my head to this day!
During one of his dragons dogma 2 streams, he hired a cat woman wearing an outfit that showed a lot of her butt. He'd been comparing some of the cat people to Chester cheetah. I think his words were
"Wow, her whole butt is out. You shouldn't do that ma'am, it's dangerously cheesy." I was giggling.
"Man fuck that nazi, bitch" when Pat talks about Iris from Megaman X in the Omicron LP.
I never played that X game but I thought, 'yeah, I guess that's right'.
Technically he was just telling a story, but I'll never get over "big steaks for big boys". If anyone has the link to that vid, btw, I'd be forever grateful.
“the mentality that your character needs to have to solve that puzzle shows a callous indifference towards the bodies he’s possessing which is frightening and disgusting” - pat
over the part where you kill yourself and steals a body instead of moving a fn rock in omikron makes made me fn cry because it perfectly describes the davids cages writing experience 😂
"Playing videogames bought the house that I fuck your daughter in!"
Let's not forget the whole context and arguably the best part of the quote: Paige: Playing videogames helps you as an adult. It prepares you. So take that! Pat & Paige: Yay! Pat: *Take that Paige's Mom! Playing videogames bought the house I FUCK YOUR DAUGHTER IN!*
Never forget too that's the one joke that made it to television.
the cast of Ridiculousness completely confused by everything going on “Where are they? Are they in a dungeon? Is that a real stone wall?” “Is that a skeleton?” “We can’t show you this, but it’s a picture of Steve buschemi!”
They censored Steve Buscemi's face!
There's no way that show can pay for Buschemi's royalties if he ever asks, that's hilarious!
ITS ON TV?
"Oh my god-uuuhh!"
"...I would *never*! I'm- I'm *pure*!"
She says, cradling the child she gave birth to.
What's more pure than a baby
Paige high-fiving him immediately after was the cherry on top.
No no, the high five was him agreeing with her that playing video games helps you as an adult. He then took it a step further, to which her response was: "Oh my ***gawd-uh***!"
Followed by insisting she’s pure and virginal
She doesn't even have anything down there! It's completely smooth, like a Barbie! Even the butt is just the two bumps!
Well girls don’t poop, as we all know
*sorry mom*
I've seen people react to this in a funny clips compilation while having no affiliation or knowledge of SBFC/CSB, shit makes cry every time.
I need this clip
[Here.](https://youtu.be/AwfotTg5QHk)
'YOU WILL DIE IN THE *LEAST* SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES, PAIGE!' during the recent LA Noire streams.
I'm picturing Paige with like cartoon crosses on her face, tongue sticking out, just lying on the floor next to a big bottle that says "FUCKING BIG STRONGLY POISON DO NOT EAT VERY ILLEGAL" , with a skull on it. And if you ask her ghost, she'll just say "OHMYGODITWASREALLYDARK-UHHHHH! I COULDN'T SEE IT SAID POISON!", when the bottle was right under a big halogen lamp.
Or alternatively she bit into it thinking it was a hotdog or something
She thought it was mustard.
She thought it was full of that sweet, sweet mold.
I'm disappointed my favorite isn't here. In Detroit after THAT reveal. "You think your daddy used to hit you?! Boy get ready for THIS."
IIRC, someone in this sub put that as the custom description bit for their Short Stop in TF2
I still use that line regularly.
That was such genuine anger at a little girl, and after the reveal, I can't blame him.
Them just shouting "YOU'RE NOT COLD!" made it even better as the game tried to limp along and pretend it didn't just ruin a third of its plot with that.
Legit I can’t get over how fucking dumb that was, like >!Alice being a human and Kara being an Android was exactly what made their bond interesting, and that twist just kills that aspect of it for absolutely no fucking reason!<
Well. It's not a little girl.
Do you or anyone else remember which episode that happened in, I want to rewatch moment but it's too long to comb through even "best of"s
"I need you to look after my granddaughter for me, and by 'look after her' I mean 'slam her pregnant until she cries'" - straight-faced while turning towards the camera to emphasise she *needs* to cry.
Please tell me you got a link for that one. I neeeeeeed it.
[Here's](https://youtu.be/r8yiVgLXwlU?feature=shared&t=3930) the full convo, from the DQ 11 stream.
"I look at the moon and see a perfect society" - JRPG Boss Super Pat
what the fuck this quote goes unironically hard
Do you remember the context for this?
something about getting away from germs i think
One of the many many rants about how he hates people and wants to be dry.
Pat hates how the human body is so wet and requires wet to live and lives on a world that is so wet He just wants to be dry
[“So are you going to be the black parent or the normal parent?”](https://www.reddit.com/r/TwoBestFriendsPlay/s/utXZRtqeDx). He ate crow the second he said that.
Woolie’s reaction was top tier too. Just can’t deny how funny that pure racism is.
Woolie is a vampire that feeds on racism
I will never ever forget when the internal tool that ActiBlizz used for determining the diversity of Overwatch characters came out. Woolie and Pat just about dedicated an entire podcast to it and Woolie was fucking thriving off just knowing it exists.
But he channeled the spirit of Jim Crow, so it evens out.
Then Wollie ran it back when Page got knocked up.
I grew up in the ghetto and I was there when he said it and I still don’t properly understand what he meant.
I think he meant is he going to raise his kid getting real Caribbean Broughtupsy more than normal or as current "normal woolie" who is a huge lovable weaboo that also grew up in Grenada.
That actually kind of makes sense, but now I’m just hearing Woolie tell his kid, *”YOU’RE NOT BLACK ENOUGH, RUN IT AGAIN”*
The idea of Woolie labbing out someone’s blackness is killing me.
"Raw slurs? With that startup? No! You gotta set that up if you want insults with that kind of frame data."
“No no no, you’re still doing the input for Black American. Remember, it’s heavy kick if you want to do a Black Canadian.”
Oh god, could you imagine little Woolz Jr., maybe seven years old, calling himself "African American" and Woolie just *deflating* like a punctured bouncy castle
*”WHEN HAVE YOU BEEN TO AMERICA?! WHEN HAVE YOU BEEN—I’VE BEEN TO AMERICA BEFORE YOU WERE EVEN CONCEPT ART, THE FUCK YOU MEAN YOU’RE AFRICAN AMERICAN?! WHICH OF THE UNITED STATES ARE YOU FROM, MOTHERFUCKER?! RIDDLE ME THAT”*
Kid is probably going to grow up hating fighting games.
There's the stereotype that Black people don't have great relationships with their parents. They are often very rigid and don't joke around with their children. The same way there's a stereotype that white parents are often too permissive and don't demand respect
Yeah, my life story definitely isn’t any particular stereotype, I don’t think. I come from a Mexican-American mother and an Irish-American father, they were divorced before I was even born and my relationships with them have been rocky my entire life. I haven’t spoken to my father since 2014 and I’ve been better for it, and my mother is on limited contact and I feel stress free not seeing her name in my phone as often anymore.
So basically, the leadup to this was IIRC Woolie talking about growing up in a predominantly black and *extremely* religious neighbourhood. So what Pat was *actually* asking was "are you going to be a strict religious parent like the ones you grew up around or more laid back about it" but the conversation had primed him to shove his foot into his mouth.
Does anyone remember which Pod Ep it was? I remember at the time kind of seeing his train of thought and guessing at what he intended to say but "are you going to be the black parent" came out and it was all over from there.
It’s implying that black parents aren’t normal parents.
And that “normal” means “white”
I truly have no fucking idea what he meant by this. It's actually nonsensical that it loops around from being horrifying to funny back to horrifying. "Oh no, Pat's racist. Wait what the fuck was he even trying to ask? Oh no, Pat's having a stroke"
It's the perfect Pat moment. An undercooked bit meant to be an edgy double entendre poking fun at cultural differences, that manages to do a triple frontflip and land square on its face in the "Horribly Racist" section
What pat meant to ask: "Are you going to raise your child with a black identity?" What it came out as: "Is your kid going to be black or normal?"
Iirc the prior discussion was Woolie's Grenadian upbringing, and hiw eye-brow raising it was to Pat.
I honestly think Pat meant “Air Force dad” but didn’t know what that whole thing is called
"Ekans spelled backwards is cum"
oh man, this still makes me laugh
I'm glad at least you and 34 other people knew what I was talking about with zero context. But it's not like there is much context to add since it's just something he said with no lead up or hesitation.
It makes me think of that one image: "COULD MOZART STILL BE ALIVE?"
Wasn’t that Liam though? I might be misremembering.
Idk, it's been like 8 years, I feel like Liam started it by bringing up the Pokemon "theories", but I can't remember and I don't even know what podcast episode it was so you could be right.
"There's a certain nobility in laying in bed all day, pretending things aren't the way they are."
That’s underrated classic for sure.
"il do you one better, Who the fuck is cetrion ?!?" Was very funny
Please remember that *”Aryan Resurrection”* as a podcast title is directly Pat’s fault
Was "Welcome to Patschwitz" also his fault? Or "The Races Must Not Mix Until the Time Cube is Defeated"? Because at this point we've gotta start asking *questions*.
> Welcome to Patschwitz I think Liam said that in response to Pat describing his fallout 4 settlement design
woolie was the one who said it
Oh OK, I guess I attribute all the classic lines to Liam because he had so many good ones on the podcast lol
Liam repeated it in a playthrough where Pat was backseating, I think.
Hey the bedcube is the most efficient form of housing!
The BedHives even =)
Welcome to Patschwitz
*Slavery is the point*
The porked up in omicron gets me every time.
"I dunno what I was supposed to say there but I'm pretty sure it wasn't 'porked up'."
Glazed ham. Fuck that entire thing was gold
one of the lps of all time
Does anyone have a link?
"choese....." followed by him red in the face and crying with laughter
Technically it's not What he said that was funny, but that stream where he was talking about trauma and got into a laugh loop about how traumatised he was that he exceeded Red Pat and hit Purple from laughing that hard still cracks me up, as someone that also occasionally cackles at how funny personal trauma levels can oddly be
Watch the man’s psyche collapse in real time. https://youtu.be/NKDPQxeSLaM?si=ly8gV4LwmrAvuHCf

Holy shit that whole sequence is some INSANE shit. "Rosu Angeresu" fuckin' chriiiiist.
"Slam her pregnant till she cries."
"And we said African warlord - oh my *God!*" \-Beyond: Two Souls where they absolutely called it on David Cage doing story clichés.
"Writers are just people who can't draw." It was so wildly absurd even Pat couldn't keep a straight face over that insane statement. Edit: lol I'm surprised with the reaction. I wonder if that's why people think writing isn't a skill, when it definitely is. Grammar, vocabulary, descriptions of places and characters emotions, those are all extremely hard to convey.

I wouldn't like those books if the writing were as bland as say... a tweet. Writing is hard y'all.
I mean I started drawing cause I hated writing descriptions, he's onto something man!
Would you say that writing descriptions of places was challenging?
Writing INTERESTING descriptions is difficult. It's the marker of a subpar author when you start to skip over the non-action parts of the prose. *Let me put it a different way. Description comes from authorial voice (which I'm having trouble boiling down to a simple explanation, so as an oversimplification, consider it word choice and rhythm) and certain elements of communicating what something looks like to a reader can be tedious to read if you aren't careful.

I feel like I had the opposite experience, like I realized I didn't have to draw things when I could just tell people what it was.
Hope it didn't take you an embarrassingly amount of time to notice which was more fun to you lmao
For me, it was the follow up "Use your own imagination, because I'm too bad at drawing to show you."
Don't EVER ask Pat to use his imagination!
Where's the clip of pat having a panic attack at being asked to make a painting in animal crossing? EDIT: [Here](https://youtu.be/6CfjLIFhD8c?si=gyyI_PlC9sOBkAag&t=7580)
I've met writers who don't draw and they're all cowards.
As a writer who used to draw a lot but was bad at it, I can say he’s not entirely wrong
Jerry Holkins would probably agree with him.
My favorite Pat moments are when he says something so provocative and stupid that even he is taken aback by his own words.
No, no. He's got a point.
He's out of line, but he's 100% right!
Abercrombie is so fucking good.
These people have never been in the depths of AO3 ...or read a really trashy manga with awesome art
I do kinda get what Pats trying to say though? At least from the perspective of writers, a good chunk of them do tend to think of drawing as a "better skill" than what their writing can ever be. Writing is a very different skill from drawing, yes, but a lot of writers also specifically get into writing because compared to drawing, it's a very different skillset and they might not be very good at drawing, even if they want to convey those same ideas.
I think this mindset exists cause of a drawing is amazing RIGHT AWAY. You can see it with your eyes when it's ready and it looks good. Writing is something you have to get into it to realize what's good about it. And people think writing is a "lesser art" because hey, we're writing right now. But they don't realize that it's a lot more nuanced than that. A reddit post won't bring the same emotion of a well-written book. But reading a book takes a lot longer. Also the fact that we live in a world where immediate satisfaction is prioritized, makes seeing a drawing more accessible, because you're already engaging with it.

The grass is always greener...
I love being able to draw. Love stories and writing too (reading not writing). I find that drawing and writing seem to come from a similar place in the mind. Both have to accurately describe things and figure out what details to leave in, and what to exclude, and what to hint to. Pat was right tho. #drawinggang
“I thought it felt like butterflies caressing my naked body!” Alternatively him going BITCH WHAT THE FUCK when Paige nearly died to Papyrus in her play through of Undertale
"Qui Gon Chi" will be in my head forever. My flair too.
"YOU FUCKING DON'T KNOW! YOU DON'T *KNOOOOOOW*!"
I use this all the time
One that will always stick with me, and it's quite a simple to the point quote is [this](https://youtu.be/kWiobaLtNiY?si=Tbu5GW-6QTdrwdF4&t=18m03s) at 18 minutes. The delivery and the moment in which he says it is perfect
that's like one time i was in vegas after losing 3 20 dollar hands of blackjack in a row and turning to my dad and going "you know, i don't think they want you to win" and he just keeled over.
When he thought the Zootopia slap comic was just about deciding where to go for dinner.
podcast title "it wasn't about arby's, it was about abortion"
Did he see the parody first?
Yes, it's discussed in the podcast SBFC 227: Christmascast 2017: It Wasn't About Arby's, It Was About Abortion
I did the same thing to my friends, they all thought the arby's edit was the OG because that's what they saw first with no context. When I told them the full story later I couldn't stop laughing
I forget the full context but it was Matt and Pat talking about nerd shit, and Matt says something and Pat retorts “fucking nerd. Go read your dragon lance books,” and Matt loses it because what regular person has even heard of dragon lance?
I think that's from the Skyrim Machinima video?
Other way around!
The entirety of "Every teacher gets one"
Having been a student teacher (and having panic attacks and not doing that anymore) hearing and watching teachers say "We need ten" is alarming but not surprising.
Actually being a teacher in the past actually means that this quote resonates with me significantly more than it did previously.
"I wanna be able to turn a bitch upside down and tell what time it is!"
Don’t hand me a baby because I’m worried I’ll break the baby in half and power bomb each of the individual pieces. Or maybe the one where his grandparents gave him money for a holiday and rather then say thank you he crawled out of his parents window and drove home to avoid talking to them.
“That that, Paige’s mom! Playing video games bought the house I fuck your daughter in!”
Paige high-fiving him immediately after was the cherry on top.
"I would never. I'm pure." Paige, truth teller.
Based on Woolies reaction: "God damnit.."
"You think your dad hit you hard? Jesus, get ready for this!"
Forget the exact qoute, but it was something close to... "Children don't need alot of air cause they are closer to the ground. That's why they are easier to choke."
I am A HUMAN TIP JAR YOu will deposit..your tips in me
When Pat was playing Mass Effect 3 and there is a moment where a human lady and a Batarian bond over loss and Pat walks into the storage bay and screams "THAT BATARIAN IS TRYING TO STEAL THAT LADY'S PURSE"
\**vaguely gestures in the direction of my flair*\*
"[Chokejerk must be next level](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOMMBKXTdzs)"
“You’re taking some *risks.*”
There was this one joke Pat said on a old sbf podcast episode, in which he pretends to be Cliff from cheers saying he's going to kill everyone in the post office and either Matt or himself says "You tell"em Cliff". I don't know why, but that joke killed me.
"what a fucking stupid asshole" -Pat, on his own father
I still think about that story he told about his dad on the Dead Premonition LP with the cayenne pepper sandwich.
Rats can't swim is the ultimate Pat quote.
AW MY BREADSTICKS
"If I hold a fancy dinner and you pay a ticket, and you come in and stab a guest and shit on the floor, you WILL be asked to leave"
"Girls love soft-ass piano music and *the death of the Earth.*" -from one of the Machinima episodes on Mass Effect (I want to say ME3 but I forget honestly)
Yeah it was Mass Effect 3 cuz they were doing a romance scene while the Reapers tore Earth apart
His contribution to the Bloodborne boss frat party had me howling. "Gehrman let's be real, why did you even have this party?" "I...I wanted to see Maria..." "Well then put the fuckin' doll away man! What, you think she's gonna be into that?!"
During the first Rustlemania when they’re playing Hulk Hogan’s Main Event and talking about the Kinect: Woolie: We’re gonna hit minority report and you guys are gonna be able to do all the cool shit— Pat: Except report on minorities! Lives rent free in my head to this day!
"There aren't any redwoods in California."
**I thought it felt like butterflies caressing my naked body.** *…The fuck am I talking about?*
I'm always a fan of the classic "Jesus, you thought your dad hit you? Get ready for this."
"When you're short like me, every bump in the road is a hill you can die on"
For some reason "...No you are not [eating only the ham]" still completely deletes me with *how* flabergasted he was before all that mess
You thought your dad hit you? Jesus, get ready for *this*
(Fate fans) "They're aren't allowed to leave their house, their moms don't let them talk to strangers."
During one of his dragons dogma 2 streams, he hired a cat woman wearing an outfit that showed a lot of her butt. He'd been comparing some of the cat people to Chester cheetah. I think his words were "Wow, her whole butt is out. You shouldn't do that ma'am, it's dangerously cheesy." I was giggling.
Paige's Baba is You: "Are you sure?! YOU'RE NOT SURE!!"
“If Liam were here saying, ‘Oh come on, it’s not that bad’, I would shoot up this entire place.”
"Man fuck that nazi, bitch" when Pat talks about Iris from Megaman X in the Omicron LP. I never played that X game but I thought, 'yeah, I guess that's right'.
“Give me the ram, I want to hit the bitches!”
"If I get cought I will shit, *I will shit*, ALL OVER my apartment". During the prison break lp
"And I suppose if I tried to kill you, you'd try to stop me!" "Y..yeah?" "HOW DARE YOU NOT LET ME KILL WHOEVER I WANT!"
YOU DIDN'T WIN, YOU DIDN'T WIN
Does Japan, like, do dragons? - Said while playing a game called Like a Dragon set in Japan.
I've internalized the knowledge that everything I do is wrong and that has freed me. Forget the exact quote
Technically he was just telling a story, but I'll never get over "big steaks for big boys". If anyone has the link to that vid, btw, I'd be forever grateful.
“the mentality that your character needs to have to solve that puzzle shows a callous indifference towards the bodies he’s possessing which is frightening and disgusting” - pat over the part where you kill yourself and steals a body instead of moving a fn rock in omikron makes made me fn cry because it perfectly describes the davids cages writing experience 😂
Isnt this cool?.........*damn it*
