This is Halloween! It is crap!

A quick readers note for you all. Normally I opened these blog posts with the phrase “Happy Monday.”

I did this for two reasons. First most people dread Mondays, but to me Monday means new LRR videos and that’s why you’re reading this blog. Second, I stole it from Jian Ghomeshi, the host of one of my favourite CBC shows. While I’m feeling a little queasy thinking about Mr. Ghomeshi right now, the show he hosted still proves to be as good as ever. Even if I can’t use the phrase “Happy Monday” without feeling uncomfortable, Q and the CBC continue to be vital to both the arts in Canada and in the world. The point behind this all is no more “Happy Monday.” I’ll have to think of a different phrase to celebrate a dreaded day of new beginnings.

Speaking of celebration, this week’s LRR video is a Commodore Hustle! What happens when the LRR crew wants to get together and have a Halloween party? We all learn a lot of things in Free Candy. Mostly how awful we are.

The exact opposite of learning things is what happens in this week’s Unskippable. Graham and Paul sit through the extremely weird One Piece: Unlimited World Red.  What is happening? I have no clue. Some One Piece fans are a little upset that Graham and Paul didn’t do more research. For my rebuttal, I suggest that making a game totally  incomprehensible to anybody but the most devoted fan is generally bad idea.

Speaking of bad ideas, this week’s CheckPoint is Be A Bread. The Surgeon Simulator team is back, with I Am Bread, and somehow this game is WAY grosser than the game where you rummage around in someone’s ribcage.
