Friday Nights - 'Tis the Season

[Graham]

Luck comes Alex's way as Magic Christmas Land is upon us.

SantIan! Is that the first time Ian has been in Friday Nights?

[theycallmejokke]

Wait are you guys still making Friday Nights!?!

I kid! I kid! Awesome episode as always guys.

I have to admit that I didn't get any of the aftercredit cards after the lieutenant. The referential humor there was just too sophisticated for my Scandinavian palate. Straight up pronunciation differences are easy to spot, but, like... Am I correct if I guess that an armchair is called a chesterfield in Canada? Some googling told me a Kraft dinner is a brand (persumably canadian?) of Macaroni and the Shawinigan Handshake was a political chokehold incident from the 90s? I accept defeat, as far as I can remember these were the first jokes LRR have made that are just far to deep cuts for me.

I loved the Magical Christmas Land escalation. Between that and the "Salty" crapshot you've got me looking forward to the next time someone goes into the tank. I'm picturing Cam in an aquarium.

I found The Shawinigan Handshake joke much too funny. The fact that that incident was twenty years ago makes me feel old.

The chesterfield one is a bit more of a stretch as chesterfield means couch or sofa in Canadian English.

Kraft Dinner holds an important place in Canadian culture although it is sold under other names elsewhere. While Kraft is an American company (now merged with Heinz), James L. Kraft was born in Canada but moved to the United States before starting what would become Kraft Foods.

HAHA

Thanks.

I'm waiting to see how many people want to line up and buy a luck sack.

Just goes to show that if you want a draft done right, you've got to do it yourself.

Also I really loved "the magic was in Alex's deck all along" as a Christmas Season Special style moral.

Was that post-babby Kathleen, or is that scene super old?

[kade_zero]

And now I’m aware of my teeth; that’s great.

[rpg1203]

So will Kathleens card get updated so that you can tap it to spawn a baby token?

Cameron should probably see a professional. Either a therapist or hitman, not sure which.

I mostly comment to because Graham discarding Tainted Pact is such a clearly wrong play it hurt me on the inside. If Tainted Pact is really the best card in his hand, it costs 1 mana, and he could have just cast it, and it would still be in his graveyard to flashback in less turns than if he just discarded it. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm leaning more towards the hitman side of things for Cameron.

Twenty years? What are you talking about, it was only in the ninet-oh my god...
