I know some really weird facts.

Edit: According to the friend who supplied the bee mailing info, the postal workers really don't like you if you have bees shipped to yourself regularly. I can't imagine why.

Is it weird that upon reading this I comtemplated that one way to ship bees via the mail system for purposes of bee smuggling would be to mail packages of dry ice, and just stick the bees in with them where they'd freeze harmlessly and could later be revived?

Odd. I totally have a thing for Morgan despite not being gay... :P

And at 8 days, at time of filming, that's unlikely to get beaten.

This may be slightly unrelated, but I have to ask...

Are there currently plans in place to procure a Hobbes for Calvin? Because if not, I am disappoint. (And may just have to resort to making it happen myself.)

In another thread congratulating Tim and Larissa, several people have said they would do so, including Tally. At this point, I think Tim's planning to have a whole tiger-filled nursery, so I'm sure you can still do it too.

I don't think keeping a baby around live tigers would be the best idea. But I'm sure he'd be very, very safe if you can make sure the tigers don't go after Calvin... so it might be a decent trade off.

Larissa has said she'll take care of the live ones, so I don't see what could go wrong.

If the tigers get out of control, just get some dire-wolves to keep them in check.

Great video but one thing that I kept mulling over in my head through out it was "Isn't that the bass line from Blue Monday?"

Something I noticed on a second viewing; while the LRR crew almost never acknowledge the camera's presence, Jerett looked at the camera as if it was another character, presumably because he's used to looking at "Kyle" while in character.

Not a criticism, just thought it was interesting.

In-universe, perhaps that scene was being filmed by Kyle.

They did a super successful web series, and a critically acclaimed TV show that ran for one season before being cancelled. They haven't really bounced back to the web show since, it's pretty sucky.
The individual members are all doing their own stuff now, so at least it's not a total loss.

They're probably best known in the gaming community for "FPS Doug", played by Joel Gardiner, the guy with the shaved head in the foreground of the last shot. His catchphrase is "BOOM! Headshot!"

So I figured I'd venture onto the forums to ask this question (hopefully it hasn't been asked yet) but Kate's headphones. What brand are they? They look like Aerial7 Chopper2s but seeing as Aerial7 feels to me like a hipster brand, I'm always surprised whenever anybody else owns them :P

They're Panasonic "Retro" headphones, and they're amazing. I have a pair myself and have recommended them to Cam and Kathleen, who now both love their pairs.

That's awesome. I actually saw someone with a pair this weekend and I saw the panasonic badge on 'em. They seem pretty sweet.
