Melf was originally a D&D character. IIRC he was created by Gary Gygax' son Lucien. It literally stands for Male Elf. He's attributed in various later D&D editions as the creator of various spells such as Melf's Minute Meteors and Melf's Acid Arrow.

[@emillegal-search-and-seizure]

Um actually, comic Melf's shared namesake with D&D Melf was most likely a coincidence. Comic Melf was first introduced in April 1975, and while D&D Melf certainly existed in Gygax's campaign before then, he wasn't published until later in 1975 with the Greyhawk book.

[@RabblesTheBinx]

​@@emillegal-search-and-seizure Um, Actually, his name wasn't revealed to be Melf until after he died in January of 1977, so it's very possible that Marvel took the name from D&D.

33:42 Note: that's the federal tipped minimum wage. Some US states, such as California, have the same minimum wage for both tipped and untipped employees. People not mentioning this has always bothered me, since when I first learned about how tipping works in most states online I got really confused and my parents who both worked as waitstaff in the pass were like "what the hell are you talking about". Like most US laws, the details vary by state.

Also important to know that the minimum wage itself is very different by state, in California it’s much higher than a lot of states, though so many things are also more expensive so it really doesn’t mean much.

[@captainhuman]

Um actually, Trapp said Luck and Pluck are two different swords, but they’re the same sword. It originally had the word “luck” inscribed on the hilt, but as its original owner Blueford died, he wrote the letter P on it in blood before giving it to Jonathan Joestar. Also I don’t think it’s ever stated that that’s the sword’s name, it’s just written on it for the aesthetic (not 100% on that one though, been a while since I saw the show).

19:10 Fun Fact: this is how ‘Melf’, as in the fictional creator of such spells as “Melf’s Acid Arrow” and “Melf’s Minute Meteors”, from D&D was named.

@@chaosfromtejas"Super" means "above" or "beyond" in Latin, in this context: above the capabilities of normal human beings. Nothing about the name implies the enhanced capabilities must be supernatural. Superheroes are a genre, not a real, scientifically defined thing. Batman is one of the original superheroes and your sorry ass is going to argue he isn't cause of some made up etymology you invented lmao

[@ReinBelmont]

The space pirates bring back Ridley because he is one of their leaders and then, iirc, the federation does clone him by accident.

[@aqacefan]

Um, Actually, Orcrist doesn’t appear in LOTR because it was buried with Thorin after The Battle of The Five Armies. Glamdring (The Foe Hammer) was the sword that Gandalf carried, and used it in his fight with the Balrog.

[@TrentR42]

Trapp accepts the Universe/Franchise as an answer. And no one mentioned Gandalf. 28:50

[@SDScaggs]

Um actually, the card is called "Winged Dragon of Ra", Ra isn't the name of the dragon

[@Rubymagicalgirl88]

Oh my god I love their expressions when they all hear the answer to the fan question at 12:08:00

[@originalindigodingo]

Um Actually, there is no card called The Winged Dragon Ra in Yugioh. Its specifically the Winged Dragon OF Ra, since the God Cards, despite being called the Egyptian Gods, aren't actually the gods themselves, and more the monsters the Egyptian Gods themselves use to fight on their behalf - The Winged God-Dragon of Ra, The Sky Dragon of Osiris, and The Giant God-Soldier of Obelisk. Yes, I am aware that Obelisk is both not a god, but a structure, and not even an egyptian word, but the pattern is clear that they belong to the gods, and are not the gods themselves.

[@theharbingerofdawn7207]

Um, actually, Black Noir doesn't die when the almondjoy is forced in his mouth. He dies the season after when homelander kills him. Also, he isn't allergic to almonds specifically, he is stated to have a "severe tree nut allergy" by Maeve, the one who shoved the almondjoy in his mouth.

[@Satrynx]

I love that the dune map has dune written down in the lower corner lol

[@BewbsOP]

12:22 Um, actually, the unborn fetus they're referring to, pan, is a woman, and there have been plenty of badass women in the series including saiyans. Theres also two super saiyan women not long after the point in super they're referencing. Long before that point in the series, there was even a villain turned hero who was far more powerful than even the most powerful super saiyans at the time. It took the introduction of a new deus ex machina villian to even match her absurd power.

[@ozioni2553]

"Badass women" but are they actually characters who contribute to the plot and have character development? Until very recently, no

[@BewbsOP]

@@ozioni2553 Lol, it's not like bulma is a genius who literally invented the device that moves the plot forward and has multiple plotlines to herself. But of course, because she doesn't punch real hard she doesn't contribute to the plot or have character development. I guess lapis/18's development from villian to hero wasn't character development and didn't contribute to plot either.

[@ozioni2553]

@BewbsOP ah yes, the thing she did off screen before the start of the franchise, That definitely indicates her active role in the story Sorry I couldn't hear you over the 12 hour footage of bulma sitting alone on namek

[@ozioni2553]

@BewbsOP android 18 DiDNT have development she was barely a character, she was introduced as evil, became irrelevant due to cell and then got absorbed And then she was wished back and the next time we saw her was 7 years later and she was just "krillins wife" She barely has any lines until after dragon ball Z ended, that's not character development

[@BewbsOP]

@@ozioni2553 Lol, apparently a person has to do the job on screen for it to contribute to the plot! I'm sorry that you think people have to scream and punch good to be a relevant character. I'm sure you have a ton of shows that you can go watch instead that meet your totally normal and not ridiculous standards.

[@NerdyZanoth]

Um, Actually it's the Winged Dragon of Ra, not the the Winged Dragon Ra.

[@jonathanlucas1501]

Just a question, why don’t they do it in person anymore? I miss the in studio chemistry 🙂

[@Elephanthobo]

I'm guessing these are still pandemic episodes? anyone with dropout to confirm if they're back in the studio?

[@xyreniaofcthrayn1195]

These are pre recorded and something something part of the same thing that hosts the brennan lee mulligan dnd games so we get an episode on youtube every time someone reminds someone that this channel exists.

[@santiagoperez5431]

The part of the boys was a clue that this is prerecorded

[@brandog1391]

They're back in studio with new episodes now. KZbin is a few "seasons" behind what is currently on dropout

[@NearCry91]

This episode originally aired Oct 8, 2021. You can access Dropout without an account, just not watch the episodes.

[@sonote1]

They missed a chance to use drizzt do'urden's swords

"Nobody's weakness is mundane." Arsenic from Runaways has a bee allergy.

[@charlieewing1810]

Linguists right now: I kind of hate this, but the use of scientist in English is fascinating.

[@Niko__01]

Um, Actually, while I agree with her sentiment, as it seems like Toryima in general doesn't know how to write competent women, or soon casts them aside very often, later in Dragon Ball Super we get a Super Saiyan woman... and perhaps an alternate universe's (Universe 6) version of The Legendary Super Saiyan, who is also a woman (and even if she isn't Universe 6's Legendary Super Saiyan, she is still a super saiyan, with a transformation similar to Broly's... and she was canon before Broly was...)

[@Fissi0nChips]

Ever going back to in person?

[@gugadelunardo4737]

Um Actually, Black Noir survived that. Homelander killed him in season 3 for betraying his trust.

[@TomAmit42]

22:34 StarWars was the only place I know this phrase from! I remebered Jaba saying that.

[@atjatkatkaktark]

@Erika for the record the fetus is a girl and they do introduce female super saiyans eventually in Super just hard to do in a show where early in the canon of the show they all but eradicate the race only having 2 pure blood saiyans known to exist after the battle with Nappa and Vegeta on Earth.

[@SSJSaphira]

Um, Actually! In the original Yugioh Manga, Duel Monsters was originally called "Magic & Wizards" before it was called Duel Monsters. Since the Original Manga was just about games in general, before the card game aspect suddenly took off.

[@Murphys00]

First?

[@barkoartstudio3096]

Um Actually... Black Noir does not die after being force fed an Almond Joy by Queen Maeve in season 2 and is "hospitalized" but comes back in Season 3.

[@cghensi]

26:46 Um, Actually, you're missing a word there, it's the Winged Dragon OF Ra, as in Ra's Dragon, not Ra himself. (Yes, I know that's nitpicky, but isn't that the point of the show?)

[@hopefulkiwi]

Fun fact "Klaatu barada nikto" is also in Spyro 2 when Spyro is given an orb in cloud temples

[@QBG]

Pro-Tip: Instead of tipping normally, ask your server if they have Venmo or some other type of online payment app, and use that to give them their tip if you can. This way, you stop any kind of shady tip-related wage theft that owners commonly engage in _without_ stiffing your server.

[@CantKillACowboyTX]

Nope - if they collect more than $600 dollars a year in payment apps, they are gonna get taxed like crazy on it, so if you go out, make sure to bring cash for a tip!

[@ShadowDrakken]

Poor Erika , missed out on the two new Super Saiyan women in Dragon Ball Super, Caulifla and Kale. And if you include the Kefla fusion, then you have three ;) I mean, they tried to fix their blunder? maybe? Not very well XD

[@IlGreven]

Um, Actually...King was re-publshing the first four Bachman Books due to the success of the fifth, Thinner, which finally exposed him as Bachman. He'd then write the novel The Dark Half, about a writer's murderous pen name coming to life and trying to kill him...and then much later he'd write The Regulators under the Bachman name, as a mirror novel to Desperation, which he wrote as himself. And while he was doing THAT, a compelling story about death row popped into his head, and instead of choosing either/or, he decided (on the advice of his agent Ralph Vicinanza) to release the death row story in 6 installments...and thus The Green Mile was born.

[@OptimusGPrime]

Umm actually... there are plenty of super heroes that have mundane weaknesses. The original Green Lantern is weak to wood (subsequent ones are weak to the colour yellow), Shazam's weakness is just saying his own name, Aquaman is weak to dehydration, Martian Manhunter is weak to fire, Black Canary is weak to a sore throat, Daredevil is weak to loud sounds, Human Torch is weak to asbestos, Powergirl is weak to natural unprocessed materials, and Storm is weak to claustrophobia.

[@SlurmDude]

The nikto saying is also how raven in TT does her power blast if I remember right

[@crimsoninsight97]

(Um, actually) in most media regarding raven, it's azuroth metrion zinthos (iirc azuroth is her home dimension and metrion is her mother's name. It's a mantra that allows her to focus her emotions into magic, though in higher states of power like in the episode when she fell in love with a fictional character she doesn't need to use it)

[@sophiequinton4327]

umm acutally, black noir didnt die from his allergic reaction. There are scenes following with him on life support and having different other heroes talking to him while he is in a coma.
