That’s the late Tony Jay. He’s my all-time favorite voice.

Wonderful, wonderful show. My introduction was Ambient Swim’s inclusion of “Joe Pera talks you to sleep.” Then when the recommendations showed me he had a series, I tried it and was hooked.
His character makes me cry good tears. I laugh so hard. When Lulu returned his greeting in the restaurant but tacked on that “Don’t come over here.” I was slain.
I still can’t tell if he’s waiting to “finish the DVD commentary” to break character, or if he’s actually like that.
Rubbernecking the painted trees
Ham and pork
Pussy Riot
His pants boner goes straight through the table.
I second the Dear Esther mention. I almost feel like it’s a dead body starting at me from my Steam library for the past decade+.
GT is why I have Garbage’s As Heaven Is Wide on my driving playlist.
I have to submit weekly files to a vendor every Tuesday, but I can’t see the vendor-side result until a report generates. They show us a 10 minute timer that I’m positive is just that, an animation. Some days the countdown skips from 9 minutes to Donev every try. Other days the timer hits zero and gets replaced with a “We’re still working…” message for another 5-10 minutes.
I’m positive the timer is the vendor’s way of forcing people to have at least 10 minutes of patience.
My older teammate reads that timer as gospel and flips their shit the moment it hits zero when really they just needed to give it a couple more minutes. One of their calls I overhear all the time is to the vendor saying “Oh, well it’s finished now, after I called you.”
My best friend from high school had one with a broken stand/tripod. Everything else worked fine but you needed to lay on your back and balance it on your face, and end up with a big red ring around your face after. I remember Wario jumping from foreground to background and back.
I took a chance on DQB2 and really liked it!
I keep seeing My Time at Portia and think I might like it, but I haven’t taken the plunge yet.
The Web invaded Mainframe
Sprite and virus battled side by side,
Attempting to reclaim the city
from the rift which opened wide.
But Megabyte betrayed Bob and
he threw him deep inside the pit.
The pit was closed and Bob was hosed
and all that he could say was “Nooo!”
Without Bob to protect us
we thought we would have no barrier,
From he who would infect us
except Enzo, which was scarier,
The city shivered terrified
from fear of the Infector’s touch…
“I guess your fear was verified, I wasn’t a protector much.”
(I guess our fear was verified, he wasn’t a protector much)
(I guess our fear was verified, he wasn’t a protector much)
(I guess our fear was verified, he wasn’t a protector-ector much)
It wasn’t Enzo’s fault at first
he only was a little Sprite,
At best he was the worst but then
he slowly learned to do it right,
And just as he was getting skilled
a Game came down he couldn’t win,
I thought for sure they’d both been killed,
first Bob then Enzo, not again!
(And just as he was getting skilled a Game came down he couldn’t win)
(She thought for sure they’d both been killed, first Bob then Enzo, not again!)
I went from Game to Game
I aged, I grew and lost my innocence,
I soon became enraged by each
and ev’ry bad experience,
The Sprite you knew was gone
I had become a grim aggressor man,
I knew from that point on
that I was truly Bob’s successor man.
(The Sprite we knew was gone, he had become a grim aggressor man)
(He knew from that point on that he was truly Bob’s successor man)
I met up with the Webriders
and took the form of Interface,
I joined my gun with pirate swords
and sailed the seas of cyberspace,
And when at last the pair of us
were fin’lly reunited guys,
Our shouts of joy did blare because
we really were delighted guys.
We soon made tracks to Mainframe
so our friends could reunite with us,
We made it back and Megabyte
was waiting there to fight with us.
When Bob went face to face
to face to face with Hexadecimal…
…his chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesimal.
(His chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesimal)
(His chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesimal)
(His chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesi-esi-mal)
Bob helped to defragment my head
while Matrix fought with Megabyte,
I thought he’d wind up dead
but Matrix put up a terrific fight.
I’d dreamed of this each lonely night
of doing in that virus trash,
But just as I had won the fight
he engineered a system crash!
(You dreamed of this each lonely night of doing in that virus trash)
(But just as you had won the fight he engineered a system crash)
What Megabyte had hoped to do
was cause his death to crack us up,
I gambled on the User to ReBoot
and thereby back us up.
It worked! We all were born anew
and rid of things barbaric,
And now we’re back together,
Ev’rything’s alphanumeric!
(It worked, we all were born anew and rid of things barbaric)
(And now we’re back together, ev’rything’s alphanumeric)
And now we’re back together,
EVERYTHING IS ALPHANUMERIC!!
