00:03:35.196 --> 00:03:37.336 Probably, but at what cost? 00:03:37.556 --> 00:03:39.776 I mean, at what cost are Speedos a thing? 00:03:39.996 --> 00:03:43.196 Yeah, like, okay, wait, let's just like, who are Speedos for? 00:03:43.436 --> 00:03:46.296 Like, who is the intended audience of Speedos? 00:03:46.756 --> 00:03:53.796 Someone who wants to sunbathe with the absolute least amount of thing on their body, probably. 00:03:53.816 --> 00:03:59.676 Yeah, I mean, that makes sense, but it just feels like, like swim shorts exist for a reason, you know? 00:03:59.696 --> 00:04:01.396 But then you're not gonna tan your cheeks. 00:04:01.816 --> 00:04:05.536 I don't, like, why do you wanna tan your cheeks though? 00:04:05.556 --> 00:04:07.736 Who wants their butt to be tan? 00:04:07.816 --> 00:04:10.856 Oh, I couldn't give you a reason why someone wants to do that. 00:04:10.876 --> 00:04:12.536 I just, that's the reason. 00:04:12.656 --> 00:04:18.136 I mean, I guess it just feels like, it just feels like something that shouldn't be there. 00:04:18.356 --> 00:04:22.336 Speedos are filling a niche that I don't want to exist. 00:04:22.396 --> 00:04:25.396 Speedos are a product of evolution that shouldn't have happened. 00:04:28.096 --> 00:04:32.776 It's really cool, cause back in like caveman days, you had spears and speedos. 00:04:32.796 --> 00:04:38.176 That was actually the game, is you had to like rip each other's speedos off with only the tip of your sphere. 00:04:38.316 --> 00:04:41.096 That's how you get the distinction of shirts and skins. 00:04:41.676 --> 00:04:45.556 Yeah, it's like capture the flag, but you just have to steal each other's speedos. 00:04:45.976 --> 00:04:48.656 I feel, okay, isn't that Turkish oil wrestling? 00:04:48.696 --> 00:04:49.596 Isn't that what that is? 00:04:49.616 --> 00:04:51.656 I don't know what that is. 00:04:51.676 --> 00:04:57.696 Okay, so from my understanding, Turkish oil wrestling is a sport wherein- 00:04:57.776 --> 00:04:59.236 You steal each other's speedos. 00:04:59.676 --> 00:05:11.016 You both get completely oiled up and wrestle and are trying to, I think it is like literally grab, it's either a flag from the other person's shorts or it may just be the other person's shorts. 00:05:11.256 --> 00:05:12.336 Both options are good. 00:05:12.356 --> 00:05:13.736 The second option is better. 00:05:13.776 --> 00:05:15.176 The second option is much better. 00:05:15.256 --> 00:05:18.876 And also like if that isn't Turkish oil wrestling, we're making it now. 00:05:19.636 --> 00:05:22.796 Or, you know, it's already been made because that's how speedos were developed. 00:05:22.796 --> 00:05:23.556 That's a really good solution. 00:05:23.576 --> 00:05:28.096 I'm glad that that is the oldest game that's existed for many thousands of years. 00:05:28.776 --> 00:05:29.296 And the best part- 00:05:30.296 --> 00:05:42.496 The best part about the capture the flag version is once you capture someone's speedo, they change teams to the skins team and then they have to just recruit everyone else. 00:05:42.996 --> 00:05:44.876 Oh, yeah, this makes sense. 00:05:45.116 --> 00:05:48.056 Another solution to your craving, don't wear clothes. 00:05:48.316 --> 00:05:48.816 Okay. 00:05:49.056 --> 00:05:58.736 What if instead of the clothes, we change not the clothes themselves, but all we do is change the entire culture and also control the weather. 00:05:58.756 --> 00:06:02.016 I mean, we don't really have to worry about the weather global warming's coming to help us out. 00:06:02.416 --> 00:06:04.756 Thanks, thanks, bud. 00:06:04.816 --> 00:06:09.236 It's weird how that ice age might affect our want to wear clothes. 00:06:09.476 --> 00:06:09.976 Oh, right. 00:06:09.996 --> 00:06:11.376 That's how climate change works. 00:06:11.436 --> 00:06:12.076 Yeah. 00:06:12.236 --> 00:06:19.836 So we do need to control the weather, which really has the larger benefit of changing the climate intentionally, instead of unintentionally. 00:06:19.856 --> 00:06:20.896 We've already fucked it up. 00:06:20.916 --> 00:06:21.776 We might as well. 00:06:21.856 --> 00:06:23.376 Like, fuck it up for a purpose. 00:06:24.376 --> 00:06:30.576 Changing the culture to just be like very much, not even just pro nudity, but like nudity is the only option. 00:06:31.256 --> 00:06:39.536 Yeah, I mean, why, give me one good reason clothes should exist in a culture where it doesn't matter and the weather does not affect you. 00:06:39.636 --> 00:06:41.216 The thing is, I can't give you the- 00:06:41.236 --> 00:06:41.856 No, I can. 00:06:41.996 --> 00:06:42.296 What?

00:08:03.876 --> 00:08:04.316 That. 00:08:04.336 --> 00:08:05.616 It's always the gray bag. 00:08:05.616 --> 00:08:09.376 It's always the gray bag, but instead of that, it's nudity, you know? 00:08:09.396 --> 00:08:15.396 I mean, we could also, like just the best of both worlds, we could develop skin pockets like kangaroos. 00:08:17.636 --> 00:08:19.196 Okay, well I don't, hmm. 00:08:19.396 --> 00:08:23.336 Okay, well, yeah, hmm, so how would we do that? 00:08:23.476 --> 00:08:24.416 GMO human. 00:08:24.816 --> 00:08:26.276 Oh, that makes so much sense. 00:08:26.296 --> 00:08:29.576 Where are you gonna put your baby when you don't have your backpack? 00:08:29.796 --> 00:08:32.776 You just put them in your front backpack skin. 00:08:33.056 --> 00:08:38.936 Can I just say that the other day on public transit, I saw someone wearing a backpack that had a dog sticking out of it. 00:08:40.056 --> 00:08:44.396 On their back, and there's just a tiny little dog head going out of the backpack. 00:08:44.416 --> 00:08:47.756 I was just like, this is the ideal form of humanity. 00:08:48.476 --> 00:08:50.616 That's the inspiration for Banjo and Kazooie. 00:08:50.636 --> 00:08:53.756 God, it must be, it must be, absolutely. 00:08:53.876 --> 00:09:01.616 Also important in the thing of No More Clothes is no media gets to have characters with clothes. 00:09:01.836 --> 00:09:04.616 Because you want to teach people that- 00:09:04.636 --> 00:09:06.316 We can have the token clotheist. 00:09:06.696 --> 00:09:13.696 I guess, yeah, we can have clothed beaches. 00:09:13.716 --> 00:09:17.156 If you want to come and play in the sand, you better have a shirt on. 00:09:17.456 --> 00:09:18.696 Yeah, literally. 00:09:18.716 --> 00:09:21.456 It's just like, oh, do you not like the nudity stuff?

00:09:56.996 --> 00:09:59.056 Zipper underwear, zipper socks. 00:10:02.036 --> 00:10:06.736 Okay, so just like to change the size of the underwear and socks or like for other purposes? 00:10:07.076 --> 00:10:08.716 Well, you can just zip them off. 00:10:09.276 --> 00:10:14.256 Well, you get your zip away pants and now they're off, but what are you going to do after that? 00:10:14.496 --> 00:10:16.756 Now you're going to struggle to take your underwear off? 00:10:16.836 --> 00:10:18.836 No, you just zip that right off. 00:10:21.116 --> 00:10:34.476 It's like, you know, when they test a car and it's like zero to a hundred and six seconds, the test for any good pair of clothing, any good outfit is fully closed to nude in under five seconds. 00:10:36.476 --> 00:10:40.616 How quick can you take off every piece of clothing on your body? 00:10:41.576 --> 00:10:43.656 It's the opposite of stripping. 00:10:43.896 --> 00:10:45.376 Now it's a speed round. 00:10:45.396 --> 00:10:50.696 This is the speed category of stripping. 00:10:50.716 --> 00:10:52.356 The speed runs stripping. 00:10:52.596 --> 00:10:54.216 Speed running stripping. 00:10:54.336 --> 00:10:56.316 Yeah, I think this is really the best idea we have. 00:10:56.336 --> 00:11:00.776 It's just like zippers or no clothing or zippers that help it be no clothing. 00:11:00.816 --> 00:11:12.756 Maybe there's just zippers that strategically, hey, okay, so what about zippers that unzip in certain ways to just have just like a very seductive nudity, right? 00:11:12.776 --> 00:11:15.656 Of just like you unzip to a certain degree. 00:11:15.656 --> 00:11:19.356 Oh, and then that zipper is done to reveal a second zipper. 00:11:19.376 --> 00:11:22.256 Yeah, yeah, exactly. 00:11:22.276 --> 00:11:23.176 Zippers on zippers. 00:11:23.276 --> 00:11:35.196 Wow, so it's like, it's a new level of stripping where it's like, you can go as fast as you want, but there are like 20 zippers on this one piece of clothing. 00:11:35.636 --> 00:11:37.516 So it's still really slow. 00:11:37.556 --> 00:11:40.056 Yeah, everyone can go super fast. 00:11:40.076 --> 00:11:44.416 I love this because it's everyone's just gonna look like they're in a parka all the time. 00:11:44.576 --> 00:11:48.936 And that is the ideal form of this because then it doesn't matter if things fit. 00:11:49.216 --> 00:11:50.976 Everyone just wear clothing that's too big for you. 00:11:50.996 --> 00:11:52.996 We just assigned them their big gray bag. 00:11:53.316 --> 00:11:55.136 Big gray bags, exactly. 00:11:55.156 --> 00:11:59.416 We assigned them their big gray bags and then no one has to worry about this ever again. 00:11:59.616 --> 00:12:00.636 Actually, it's not gray. 00:12:00.656 --> 00:12:04.376 At five years, you get to pick your favorite color and then that's your color bag. 00:12:04.396 --> 00:12:07.456 And then you never get to run away from five-year-old you ever again. 00:12:09.816 --> 00:12:12.256 What five-year-old you have chosen for your bag color? 00:12:12.276 --> 00:12:12.676 Green. 00:12:12.836 --> 00:12:17.376 Yeah, I think my five-year-old self would have chosen purple, which like I would still be on. 00:12:17.396 --> 00:12:23.136 I want, see, that makes me jealous because I would have chosen purple as an adult, but I would have been stuck with my green bag. 00:12:23.176 --> 00:12:26.216 And if you switch bags with someone else, how will they know? 00:12:26.576 --> 00:12:28.656 Unless you register everyone's color? 00:12:28.676 --> 00:12:34.556 Yeah, this feels like a really overcomplicated way to do this because our goal here... 00:12:34.576 --> 00:12:40.876 No, see, in our dystopia, we could just give everyone a gray bag and not register, and that sounds much simpler. 00:12:40.956 --> 00:12:44.276 But then people will find other ways to accessorize, right? 00:12:44.296 --> 00:12:47.576 It's like school uniforms, which of course are a dystopia of their own. 00:12:49.296 --> 00:12:53.696 Like people find ways to make it their own and customize it, accessorize and stuff like that. 00:12:54.016 --> 00:12:56.176 I made my green bag into some earrings. 00:12:56.696 --> 00:12:57.896 Yeah, exactly. 00:12:57.916 --> 00:13:01.876 I don't have any clothes anymore. 00:13:01.896 --> 00:13:03.136 How many bags do you get?

00:16:27.916 --> 00:16:28.456 Yeah. 00:16:28.756 --> 00:16:31.376 What is, what's your one that you're gonna go for? 00:16:31.396 --> 00:16:34.436 I thought I would describe Scorebunny's final evolution. 00:16:34.456 --> 00:16:38.936 Yeah, tell me about Scorebunny's final evolution, because like it's an interesting look. 00:16:39.256 --> 00:16:42.356 It moves away from fire, which is a really bold move on Game Freaks. 00:16:42.376 --> 00:16:43.336 That's a really, yeah. 00:16:43.596 --> 00:16:49.796 It actually turns into a metal type, and it is just called the Inheritance. 00:16:50.356 --> 00:16:51.816 And it is just all about money. 00:16:51.836 --> 00:16:54.696 It just has stacks and stacks of money. 00:16:55.016 --> 00:16:56.316 You know Scrooge McDuck? 00:16:56.476 --> 00:17:01.316 It kind of looks like Scrooge McDuck on many, many piles of money, but it is just a rabbit. 00:17:01.516 --> 00:17:03.256 Yeah, that's really interesting. 00:17:03.276 --> 00:17:05.676 It's kind of like what if Bugs Bunny was Scrooge McDuck? 00:17:05.696 --> 00:17:11.856 It's great too, because they actually got the voice actor from Scrooge McDuck to voice all of the character moves. 00:17:12.276 --> 00:17:13.756 Oh, that's really interesting. 00:17:13.776 --> 00:17:15.296 I didn't, how'd you find that out? 00:17:15.716 --> 00:17:19.796 There's a button that if you click on it, it will scream at you. 00:17:20.376 --> 00:17:21.096 Oh, interesting. 00:17:21.116 --> 00:17:22.096 I didn't try out that button. 00:17:22.196 --> 00:17:25.036 Hey, can I try out that button for Sobble's Final Evolution real quick? 00:17:25.056 --> 00:17:25.276 No. 00:17:30.016 --> 00:17:31.776 Wow, that's a really intense one. 00:17:31.976 --> 00:17:33.916 Is it just a full on metal type? 00:17:34.116 --> 00:17:37.496 I think it's metal and green type. 00:17:37.896 --> 00:17:38.396 Sorry. 00:17:39.776 --> 00:17:40.396 Sorry, which one? 00:17:40.796 --> 00:17:41.616 Metal and green. 00:17:44.036 --> 00:17:48.176 Can you explain, does it show anywhere on the website about what green type is? 00:17:48.696 --> 00:17:50.136 I mean, you have to pay to find out. 00:17:51.676 --> 00:17:56.236 Yeah. 00:17:56.256 --> 00:17:58.556 I like how it has earrings that are coins. 00:17:58.836 --> 00:18:03.616 When it does attack, it just turns into a bunch of coins and then shoots itself at you. 00:18:03.636 --> 00:18:05.516 It's like an anamorph, but with money. 00:18:05.536 --> 00:18:07.256 An anamorph, but with money. 00:18:07.276 --> 00:18:08.856 Yeah, that does make sense. 00:18:09.096 --> 00:18:11.236 Terrifying, deeply terrifying. 00:18:11.276 --> 00:18:12.796 Yeah, I mean, that's the point. 00:18:12.816 --> 00:18:14.656 As terrifying as capitalists are, you know? 00:18:14.756 --> 00:18:17.616 Yeah, I mean, you have dinosaurs and capitalists. 00:18:17.656 --> 00:18:20.836 Do you want to describe for me Grookey's final evolution? 00:18:20.856 --> 00:18:22.436 I'd say we could do it together maybe. 00:18:22.456 --> 00:18:24.996 Yeah, it's sort of a team effort. 00:18:25.096 --> 00:18:28.576 There's a lot to handle in this image that we are both looking at. 00:18:28.716 --> 00:18:32.896 I mean, the first thing to note is that, instead of getting bigger, they've shrunk him. 00:18:33.096 --> 00:18:42.196 Yeah, it's really weird because the only thing that has grown is the little log in its head, and the rest of the body is smaller. 00:18:42.216 --> 00:18:49.236 It's really interesting because it is just a tree with a tiny little thing at the bottom of it. 00:18:49.276 --> 00:18:54.676 And if you look very closely, there is a magnifying glass on the website that you can use. 00:18:55.496 --> 00:19:00.216 It just looks like Grookey, but it's like maybe three pixels big. 00:19:00.616 --> 00:19:05.136 Yeah, they didn't really change anything about Grookey, except like... 00:19:05.236 --> 00:19:06.096 They just made a tree. 00:19:06.496 --> 00:19:09.456 They just kind of made a tree, but the tree is interesting. 00:19:09.476 --> 00:19:12.796 The tree is really, I think, the interesting part of it, because it isn't... 00:19:13.216 --> 00:19:14.456 You know, it's not a normal tree, right? 00:19:14.476 --> 00:19:17.096 It's not just like a cedar tree or like, yeah. 00:19:17.116 --> 00:19:19.176 It is like a demon tree. 00:19:19.176 --> 00:19:20.356 Yeah, it's a demon tree. 00:19:20.436 --> 00:19:27.276 Yeah, which is really an interesting choice on Nintendo's part to just like demon trees in the game. 00:19:27.296 --> 00:19:31.356 It does sort of feel like they are just stealing Kirby's first boss. 00:19:32.736 --> 00:19:34.516 Well, it does have a huge face on it too. 00:19:34.536 --> 00:19:35.176 Yeah, that's true. 00:19:35.376 --> 00:19:36.936 It does have a second face. 00:19:36.956 --> 00:19:38.796 But it's Nintendo, so I guess they can do that. 00:19:38.876 --> 00:19:39.396 That's true. 00:19:39.416 --> 00:19:41.496 It's not the first Pokémon with a second face. 00:19:41.736 --> 00:19:43.796 And also they can steal from Kirby if they want to. 00:19:43.796 --> 00:19:44.516 That's true. 00:19:44.756 --> 00:19:46.356 Game Freak can do whatever they want. 00:19:46.596 --> 00:19:49.676 It's interesting, because Sethoroth is also being added. 00:19:51.676 --> 00:19:52.216 And some. 00:19:52.236 --> 00:19:54.716 Well, you know what they've been saying, Pokémon is the new Smash, so. 00:19:54.736 --> 00:19:55.256 That's true. 00:19:55.376 --> 00:19:58.176 I'm having a bit of difficulty reading one of the types. 00:19:58.296 --> 00:19:58.516 Yeah. 00:19:58.536 --> 00:20:03.096 Because they did keep grass type, and I appreciate that choice, but there's another type there. 00:20:03.316 --> 00:20:04.916 Are you able to read what this one says? 00:20:05.036 --> 00:20:07.216 Oh, I don't think anyone has been able to read that. 00:20:07.476 --> 00:20:11.196 That is Grookey's original ancestry of like demon. 00:20:11.596 --> 00:20:13.236 Yeah, that does make sense. 00:20:13.276 --> 00:20:15.256 And the demon, you know, in the form of the tree. 00:20:15.276 --> 00:20:17.116 Yeah, demon tree. 00:20:17.136 --> 00:20:20.256 Which is an interesting nod to Scottish folklore. 00:20:20.416 --> 00:20:28.476 Since it's kind of based on Britain, the whole region, I think that it's interesting that they made that kind of reference there. 00:20:28.636 --> 00:20:31.236 I think that the other thing is the leaves. 00:20:31.256 --> 00:20:33.136 Do you want to tell me about the leaves of this tree? 00:20:33.136 --> 00:20:35.256 Because they're kind of sharp. 00:20:35.416 --> 00:20:36.656 Yeah, they're really sharp. 00:20:36.676 --> 00:20:38.756 They're just like razor blades. 00:20:39.116 --> 00:20:41.996 But not like individual razor blades. 00:20:42.016 --> 00:20:49.496 It's just like if you went to the store and bought a Gillette, and then it's just a bunch of Gillettes hanging off of these branches. 00:20:49.556 --> 00:20:51.656 Which is a weird form of product placement. 00:20:51.656 --> 00:20:52.676 It is, yeah. 00:20:52.836 --> 00:20:58.096 But I do appreciate the ability to take risks and try new things. 00:20:58.196 --> 00:21:04.496 I mean, it's really good though, because with inheritance and whatnot, you can buy all of... 00:21:04.596 --> 00:21:13.296 This is why inheritance is good against it, because you just buy all of its razors, and then it's left with no attack. 00:21:13.316 --> 00:21:15.356 And then you burn it. 00:21:15.496 --> 00:21:19.776 And it's good against Sabal, because it's just like you can't poison a tree, you know? 00:21:19.796 --> 00:21:20.716 That's true. 00:21:20.856 --> 00:21:23.396 No one has ever successfully poisoned a tree before. 00:21:23.416 --> 00:21:24.096 That's true. 00:21:24.156 --> 00:21:30.036 And also, I forgot to mention Sabal's final evolution names, that it's actually named Kill. 00:21:32.116 --> 00:21:32.896 I love Kill. 00:21:34.036 --> 00:21:38.436 In this world, it's Kill or Inheritance or... 00:21:39.016 --> 00:21:40.596 Tree. 00:21:40.696 --> 00:21:43.136 No, actually, it's just called Groot Tree. 00:21:43.376 --> 00:21:44.116 Groot Tree. 00:21:44.796 --> 00:21:50.076 There's a Pokémon mod for Minecraft that has items that allow you to summon legendaries. 00:21:50.136 --> 00:22:01.596 My favorite thing in Pixelmon mod for Minecraft is that in order to summon the birds of the Zapdos, Moltres, Articuno, you have to get specific orbs and then you have to fill it with souls. 00:22:02.056 --> 00:22:03.196 Oh, good. 00:22:03.416 --> 00:22:15.436 Of just by defeating Pokémon, that adds a soul to it, and you have to defeat 300 and then you can summon the legendary, which is so metal and also makes a lot of sense. 00:22:15.456 --> 00:22:27.436 It does kind of explain why on the website it says that you have to murder the opponent's Pokémon now and just collect their souls and then you will get Kill or Inheritance or Loot Tree. 00:22:27.516 --> 00:22:29.496 And this is why it's called Pokémon Sword and Shield. 00:22:29.516 --> 00:22:34.036 As we were saying on Twitter recently, the only item you have is a sword and you stab. 00:22:34.096 --> 00:22:34.996 Or shield, right? 00:22:35.016 --> 00:22:36.516 You have sword and you have shield. 00:22:36.636 --> 00:22:44.516 Of course, there's been lots of people speculating about whether gun, the secret third item will exist, but I think they're gonna leave that for like Pokémon Gun. 00:22:44.536 --> 00:22:45.276 It's the Elite Four. 00:22:45.436 --> 00:22:47.236 I mean, the Elite Four might just have guns. 00:22:47.436 --> 00:22:47.836 Yeah. 00:22:49.576 --> 00:22:51.016 No Pokémon, just guns. 00:22:51.296 --> 00:22:51.696 Just guns. 00:22:51.816 --> 00:22:52.236 Yeah. 00:22:52.256 --> 00:22:56.096 But they also might be leaving it for Pokémon Gun, the third version of the game. 00:22:56.476 --> 00:23:08.516 No, it's great, because I know this isn't technically a craving, but if it were a craving, and talking about these Pokémon that we have seen, it would definitely be solved. 00:23:08.636 --> 00:23:09.716 But I did already know- 00:23:09.736 --> 00:23:13.736 We've solved people's craving for this information without wanting to refresh the page 150 times, you know?

00:24:31.576 --> 00:24:33.596 What fanfiction needs to exist? 00:24:33.856 --> 00:24:35.856 I'd see the problem with that. 00:24:35.956 --> 00:24:39.516 I can give you good fiction and I can give you fanfiction. 00:24:39.536 --> 00:24:42.376 I don't think I could give you good fanfiction. 00:24:42.596 --> 00:24:44.236 I think that's a contradiction. 00:24:44.256 --> 00:24:46.516 I'm right fanfiction, you asshole. 00:24:47.236 --> 00:24:48.976 No, there is good fanfiction out there. 00:24:49.096 --> 00:24:52.936 It is difficult to find, but also so is good published fiction. 00:24:52.936 --> 00:25:04.696 I mean, the thing about fanfiction that I think our submitter is getting to is the fact that it is often a lot gayer than published fiction and a lot more deals with things in a different way. 00:25:04.816 --> 00:25:10.096 It's usually more interpersonal dynamics rather than, as they said, plot. 00:25:10.376 --> 00:25:17.496 There's fanfiction where plot matters, but most fanfiction, I don't think that the plot is the main point because otherwise you just publish that fiction. 00:25:17.576 --> 00:25:22.096 I think a lot of the good of fanfiction comes in the relationships. 00:25:22.176 --> 00:25:28.996 And so really any series that has good and interesting relationships in it, we can just make fanfic for. 00:25:29.136 --> 00:25:41.996 You were mentioning Friends of the Table, and I think that's an interesting idea because tabletop RPGs are just all action based, usually plot heavy, but you can just make it about the characters. 00:25:42.196 --> 00:25:44.736 You could make any tabletop RPG fanfiction. 00:25:44.876 --> 00:25:48.956 You could also write fanfiction about tabletop games that you're involved in. 00:25:49.236 --> 00:25:56.196 You and I are in a game of D&D that we do, and I would absolutely write fanfiction about those characters. 00:25:56.216 --> 00:25:57.576 Yeah, that's a good idea. 00:25:57.596 --> 00:25:59.216 That'd be really fun, actually. 00:25:59.236 --> 00:26:03.596 Okay, let's make a fanfiction about Nia and Rix. 00:26:04.076 --> 00:26:06.976 We first have to introduce who these characters are. 00:26:06.996 --> 00:26:07.816 Yeah, okay, sure. 00:26:07.836 --> 00:26:10.356 Do you wanna give me three to four sentences on Rix? 00:26:10.556 --> 00:26:13.336 Sure, Rix is a goblin in a mech suit. 00:26:13.556 --> 00:26:14.336 She is a fighter. 00:26:14.676 --> 00:26:22.416 She is disabled, and so her and her wife built a gigantic mech suit for her to be able to move around in. 00:26:22.616 --> 00:26:36.796 And then her wife died, and she got real sad and then real angry, went into the city, became an enforcer for a criminal group, and now is just very angry and confused about everything. 00:26:36.916 --> 00:26:38.776 That sounds pretty accurate. 00:26:38.796 --> 00:26:40.996 Give me the down low on Nia. 00:26:40.996 --> 00:26:52.376 Nia was raised in a utopia, Lambia, and she had lived there her entire life until she got invited on a grand quest, and she felt it was her need to go. 00:26:52.676 --> 00:26:59.876 And now she's basically like a clueless child that, she's not a child, she's an adult, but she was clueless going into the world. 00:27:00.136 --> 00:27:03.816 And then she gets to realize that things kind of suck. 00:27:04.556 --> 00:27:08.056 And Nia is very magic-y, she's a sorcerer. 00:27:08.196 --> 00:27:08.976 Yeah. 00:27:08.996 --> 00:27:09.836 What else is Nia?

00:28:22.176 --> 00:28:28.696 So in our version, it would be, Rix owns the flower shop, and Nia owns the tattoo parlor. 00:28:28.796 --> 00:28:29.096 Right? 00:28:29.276 --> 00:28:32.776 Nia does own the tattoo parlor, that's true. 00:28:32.796 --> 00:28:34.856 Yeah, Rix definitely owns the flower shop. 00:28:34.876 --> 00:28:39.796 And there's absolutely, Nia's like, Nia has a Lambia tattoo, but Lambia isn't real. 00:28:40.196 --> 00:28:42.156 Oh God, that's so good. 00:28:42.536 --> 00:28:44.696 Rix definitely is just in a wheelchair. 00:28:44.816 --> 00:28:47.296 Yeah, with her wife at the flower shop. 00:28:47.376 --> 00:28:48.776 I think her wife's still dead. 00:28:49.136 --> 00:28:49.396 Oh. 00:28:49.476 --> 00:28:51.316 I mean, this is not the half of the everybody- 00:28:51.336 --> 00:28:53.156 This is why Rix owns the flower shop. 00:28:53.176 --> 00:28:54.216 It was her wife's flower shop. 00:28:54.236 --> 00:28:55.216 Yes, exactly, exactly. 00:28:55.236 --> 00:28:56.296 They opened it together. 00:28:56.476 --> 00:29:00.476 Exactly, and now she's become grumpy, and like, basically, what if Sprooge didn't have money?

00:45:19.816 --> 00:45:23.896 I think the other answer is get into really niche groups. 00:45:24.656 --> 00:45:27.436 And really niche, like, meme-like. 00:45:27.856 --> 00:45:32.196 I really like sending people bird memes because I'm pretty sure no one follows bird things. 00:45:32.216 --> 00:45:33.756 No one really follows bird memes. 00:45:33.776 --> 00:45:40.316 So I get to know that no one sees bird memes ever, and I'm like, oh, I'm pretty sure no one's seen this bird meme before. 00:45:40.336 --> 00:45:40.976 God, yeah. 00:45:40.996 --> 00:45:46.436 There's a Facebook group that I'm in that is just like a lot of really weird and cool memes. 00:45:46.776 --> 00:45:52.336 It's a really cool small meme group, and it just comes with the most obscure memes. 00:45:52.336 --> 00:45:58.796 I've never even heard of before that come from like niches I am not a part of, and they're excellent. 00:45:58.896 --> 00:46:06.696 And anytime that I send a meme to someone who is not in that group, I know that they probably have not seen it before because it's so niche. 00:46:06.856 --> 00:46:08.996 So is niche meme culture a thing? 00:46:09.136 --> 00:46:09.856 I think it is. 00:46:09.876 --> 00:46:11.196 I mean, yeah, it definitely is. 00:46:11.256 --> 00:46:14.596 I mean, fandom memes are often really niche. 00:46:14.736 --> 00:46:18.196 At what point is a meme niche versus nonsensical? 00:46:19.016 --> 00:46:23.576 Like how niche can you get before there is no real reason or meaning? 00:46:23.796 --> 00:46:25.336 It has to make sense to someone. 00:46:25.416 --> 00:46:28.136 Okay, so as long as you can say it to one other person. 00:46:28.216 --> 00:46:33.356 Yeah, like as long as there's someone else who gets it, like then that's a niche meme. 00:46:33.376 --> 00:46:36.096 If there's no one else who gets it, that's a nonsense meme. 00:46:36.316 --> 00:46:38.536 What if you only ever make a meme for you? 00:46:38.756 --> 00:46:39.476 Self-meming. 00:46:39.696 --> 00:46:40.576 Self-meming. 00:46:40.696 --> 00:46:42.616 Is it truly a meme anymore then? 00:46:43.336 --> 00:46:44.676 If it's only for you. 00:46:44.696 --> 00:46:51.816 I have a great example of a niche meme, and it's also a good story of the time that I was briefly a meme in my high school. 00:46:51.836 --> 00:46:52.296 Great. 00:46:52.396 --> 00:47:00.796 We were in class goofing off or something, and someone was just like taking pictures and like ended up taking a picture of me making a really weird face. 00:47:01.536 --> 00:47:05.376 And like that picture of my face, they began making into a meme. 00:47:05.396 --> 00:47:06.536 Oh, good. 00:47:06.756 --> 00:47:13.276 It ended up as like a wallpaper, as a Minecraft texture pack, whatever rained my face. 00:47:14.496 --> 00:47:15.216 It was very funny. 00:47:15.976 --> 00:47:16.516 Wow. 00:47:16.576 --> 00:47:17.536 It was a lot. 00:47:17.576 --> 00:47:21.556 And it was like, it was only for a couple of days, but it was really funny. 00:47:21.656 --> 00:47:24.436 And it was very weird to be like, oh, that's my face. 00:47:24.536 --> 00:47:26.036 Yeah, I've been a meme before. 00:47:26.076 --> 00:47:30.556 And I think that that's a pretty good way to ensure that no one else has seen those memes. 00:47:30.836 --> 00:47:32.096 Make yourself into a meme. 00:47:32.116 --> 00:47:35.556 Clair, what's the new, what's the meme that you're going to be?
