Here's how to vote: 1. Go to the @GrumpOut Community Tab. 2. Vote on your favorite clips in the polls. 3. Done!

3rd?

[@daviddiaz-dixon6622]

you guys should play Fossil Fighters for the Nintendo DS. I think that dan would enjoy it considering stegosaurus has a place in his heart. as for arin, i think that fans of this game would lose their shit over the possibilities of him voice-acting certain characters.(i swear to God if he does the Diddle-Kid voice for Snivels i will die a happy man.) It's about 180 dollars on eBay as of right now so it is a bit pricey, but it has a lot of charm to it that will most likely lead to a good time.

[@PlebNC]

@@beefmonstr4644 It's likely to curb misinformation on the subject and people profiteering by spreading such misinformation as clickbait. Unfortunately KZbin failed to realise this also neutered positive or non-detrimental discussion on the topic, and that censorship of words only stops the word itself, not the memetic concept the word represents and so the concept is assigned a new synonym to replace the censored word, such as "Backstreet Boys Reunion Tour."

[@redmoon383]

You know, I had never gotten into game grumps before 2020. I had lost my job and out of desperation for something to stimulate me, I started watching. Just for something different. And then I watched a few compilations and then I ended up subscribing. Dan's windwaker talk affected me even years after he said it. Game grumps helped me to get through one of the worst years of all our lives. I'm working now, and in a pretty good spot these days. And I want to thank Dan and Arin for helping me to get through it. I'm not a long time lovely, but I'm a loyal one. I know they'll never read this, but I hope they know that I say thank you.

These compilations do a lot to highlight exactly how much of Arin's apparent "Stupidity" is just "His brain stumbles onto an idea and then latches onto that idea with an iron vice grip"

I wonder if arin has ADHD. I have impulsive type and sometimes getting an idea turns you into a dog with a bone, which might also explain his lack of success with Zelda puzzles. Sometimes mine also messes with spatial reasoning, which might explain his consistently missing key visual elements or text. Not diagnosing him but it could explain something lol

I don’t care what any of the haters say, these guys really helped me get through the stress of school & are still doing so to this day. I haven’t cry laughed in so long & they’ve even got me to open up & accept different parts of myself I’ve hidden from my family cus I was afraid that they wouldn’t love me anymore if they knew. 2020 to now have been a huge mess but these two hilarious dorks have been the light that I needed during these scary, unpredictable, and stressful times.
