Blood Bowl! Aliens participating in fair and honest sports! 8)
That would be pretty funny
Warren, that actually sounded like a young Queen wasp looking for somewhere to build a nest. Imagine if she had of gotten to the promised land, you’d have been pissing wasps next spring! That would have been the best episode of XLBS ever – Warren is Waspman! Maybe Knight models could even have done a figure for you! If the music industry survived the amazing revelation that Milli Vanilli didn’t sing their own songs, I reckon the sci-fi industry can survive aliens coming to earth. The other thought I had was back in the 90s, as we lusted over Gillian… Read more »
I saw shandy bass being sold in an offy! It’s not drink it’s a refreshing cool aid on hit days for kids
Thank you for reminding me of the glory that is Gillian Anderson.
To be fair to Justin I’ve heard of other folks who were giving whiskey for toothaches (the alcohol free beer thing seems less bad in comparasion doesn’t it @warzan
My da was a fan of this. Either whiskey or brandy. Headache. Teething or toothache. Cold means you get a hot one with sugar nomnomnom
Dipping the dummy… heard of that before. Potcheen for the poor, brandy for the rich…
My Grandad was found feeding me spoonfuls of whisky (sorry no idea of brand probably Johnny Walkers) when I was about 6 months old, not sure why, doubt if I cared at the time.
When I was about 14 neighbours used to fill my glass at weddings with Guinness , kept thinking I’d found the glass that never emptied.
29 mins – “I was wearing shorts….” WHAT ARE YOU WEARING NOW @warzan! NSFW, NSFW!!
With all this Alien chat going on, I have a real urge to watch “Paul” again…
When two of my brothers got married I was 11ish and 14ish was carried home both time’s loved it.
I know what could give gaming a problem, particularly minature gamers, imagine whilst fighting an alien attack, we develop a new weapon fueled by the casting metal used in metal minatures, and they need all of it @avernos would have to go into hiding to keep his metal mountain safe, not to mention the rest of, we would have to have secret railroads to smuggle figures to safe houses all round the world.
We’d need the secret hand shakes to recognise other hoarders.
What about a anti plastic veto that basically banned plastic world wide?
Dolphins
If fish were?are smarter than humans people will go kill all fish thinking they will be overthrow us.
Warzan I see why your wife love you if your not ejaculating you’re flicking thing’s off every day must be an adventure for her an the family Lol
Roadkill fezes for the win ??
After just having had a management and then staff meeting on internet usage at work and nodding in hypocritical fashion I am now watching this… at work obviously. Feeling positively cultish.
You could just get the fezzes made out of tinfoil. That way you cover both sides of every controversy.
When our toddler was just a baby he ended up at a few beer festivals so one of his first words was “Beer!” (actully his first 10ish words were all ways of expressing dissapointment: Oh dear, uh-oh, oops, shit etc. Says a lot about something I’d imagine). As soon as he could walk well enough he would run to the fridge and grab a bottle of beer and take it to an adult to get them to open it. You would hide it and 30 seconds later he would be back with another. We quickly took to keeping an empty… Read more »
I think when the aliens arrive on Earth, we can ask the aliens what kind of tabletop games they play.
Ask Uncle Atom from tabletop minions where he gets his fezs from. He’s been sporting them and buying differnt ones for years
I would say that the most likely threat to our gaming industry would be a major economic collapse. If you have to put all your time and money into just feeding your family there will be no time or money left to buy modern games. People will still play games as recreation in the little free time they have but they would have to be cheap or free (think improvised chess sets or card games). My wife grew up in China in the 80’s before their economy had really taken off. For her and her parents the idea of spending… Read more »
I had the same issue with my wife, who’s Chinese. Now she’s fine about it lol
Paranoia! Imagine the alien race that based their culture on that game!
that would be interesting to see. Sitting is forbidden, the computer tells you to take a seat, what do you do? What do you do?!
How do you know about Aliens? please report to the re education /Soylent Green Yummy snacks area .Thank you for your cooperation
Don’t you have Butterbeer for wee ones?
Great show, nice to see Ryan there. For the wargame the aliens would think was our “historical documents” ? Let’s go with Battletech, they’ll be disappointed with the Assimo robot…
