As the internet comes to a complete stop like a troll editing a Wikipedia page about a 1996 story arc of the Wolverine ongoing comic series, episode 5 of the Fair Use Law podcast is now in the bag.
You might ask yourself, how did I get here? And you might ask yourself, who owns this big beautiful car? And you might ask yourself, just what will episode 5 of the Fair Use Law podcast mean to me? I can answer one of those questions: you entered the room via the doorway.
What episode 5 of the podcast means for me is a not so tearful last episode with 4th wheel Skeesix as he returns to North Carolina or Georgia or Alabama or whatever damn state he's from. The moment might be a bit more bittersweet if he wasn't so proud of his gift of Meet the Spartans to yours truly. That movie still stings and I haven't even watched it yet, folks. If you enjoyed Jimmy's two hours of podcast rocking power, don't fret, he should return over the summer or perhaps if one of us loses a tooth and leaves it under our pillow.
In podcast topical news, we touched on a number of news subjects this week. First and foremost, both on the show and in our hearts, is the triumphant and inspiration story of a shark, a precariously placed water slide, an almost impossible dream, and eventual chlorine poisoning. Won't you join with us as we honor the memory of Water Slide Shark?
If you are wondering how Fair Use Enterprises liked Brad Pitt's latest movie, the Curious Case of Benjamin Button, I'm sad to say that outsourcing our planned movie review viewing to a randomly armed guy in Philadelphia was not one of our brightest ideas.
And finally, but certainly not at all least, we come to the Curious Case of Bob's Shitty Nintendo DS game. What started off as one man's inevitable failure at programming a self proclaimed "retail ready" DS gaming experience has now ended in what just might be the saddest attempt at protesting ever. Apparently the marketing strategy of never letting publishers or Nintendo themselves see your actual game in paranoid fear that they will steal your ideas (which look suspiciously like an RPG Maker game) wasn't the best way to get your game on the shelves of Best Buy. Since the story initially broke last month, Bob has continued to go off the rails, now issuing an ultimatum that he believes Nintendo can't ignore. Ironically, as he threatens Nintendo of Japan, claiming that, by not publishing his game their profits will plummet, he's already working on an iPhone port. So keep that download in mind if you have a window of time open in between playing actual, good games from iTunes and laughing at him to care.
