For Science! & Rush M.D: A Franetic Double-Feature Review

[@ajacknz]

I sometimes wonder “is Tom OK?” but I never expected I’d get this clear cut of a “no”.

[@thelastcarnival]

"NOH-"

[@Cubei8]

I always love how Tom's videos open up like a Tim & Eric sketch and then turn back into a normal review at a breakneck pace

[@Crumplebutt]

This one turned back into a Tim and Eric sketch

[@rambler209]

Normal?

[@TheSludgeMan]

I enjoy that too, it's like: here's 2 minutes of an unholy combination of Brass Eye and Tim & Eric. OK back to standard programming now.

[@nuk3snip3r]

You can get most permanent marker off of things (like whiteboards and tables) by drawing over them with a dry erase marker and then erasing that. It is devil magic, but may save your table, Tom.

[@TheAmazingYeti]

Devil's magic indeed... *breaks out Sharpie*

[@jennycranston7687]

Or any rubbing alcohol and hand sanitizer. Permanent markers are generally alcohol soluble.

[@Eagle3302PL]

It's because dry erase marker contains an ink solvent, the idea is to have in thinned out by solvent, you write, the solvent evaporates. So just having sharpie text sit covered in an appropriate solvent for a few seconds is enough to dissolve it, then you can just wipe it off.

[@nuk3snip3r]

@@Eagle3302PL That makes sense! I lucked into my dry-erase fix way back at my first job when I drew a cartoon cow on a whiteboard in the back with a permanent marker and then couldn't erase it. My stupid answer was to just color over it with another marker to... hide it? I have no idea. But! It fixed the cow-whiteboard issue that my supervisor likely would have been a bit upset about.

[@NAJALU]

@@jennycranston7687 rubbing alcohol might take some of the finish off the table though.

The meat boy segment at the end felt like a fever dream I'd have after eating ice cream too late at night and binging through a playlist of all of Matt's old "the Opener" videos

I was eating dinner while I watched and that was a MISTAKE -_-

[@Jausterberry1]

I like to think at the end of the financial year, you hand in some receipts to an accountant who asks "You're board game reviewers, why do you have down mince and blueberries as expenses?" And then you have to try explain yourselves.

[@disgaea76]

Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major at the end for anyone wondering. Banger

[@ChristopherZAR]

Tom has just freaking ascended. This boy is up in the higher magneteospheres, with no way to come down, just casually reviewing board games from beyond the veiled infinities

[@yannisguerra]

The meat boy section seriously gave me feels of "Hug me I'm scared" And that is a good thing...I think?

[@tachotuesday730]

The little review cam constantly rolling in the corner is killing me 😆

[@TomasCordilheira]

Tom fits in SUSD perfectly, his humor and editting are getting better each day

[@AzraelCC]

Lovely to see Kim Kitsuragi's framed portrait in the background, a guardian angel watching over our chaotic boi Tom.

[@dollenrm]

Yep anyone who's played and enjoyed disco elysium (a genuine modern masterpiece in gaming) is someone who's opinion I trust when it comes to games.

[@paulsousa]

Didn’t hear any of the Meat of the Matter portion of For Science because I was too busy learning Meat Facts.

[@luigiscazzari4724]

I wasn't expecting that horror turn at the end with meat boy

[@alexmoisley4997]

"Like slapping organs into a waiting body" - this line absolutely slayed me.

[@maticf6513]

I've been watching SUSD reviews since 2016 but Toms recent work is some of the most fun I've had watching. Great humour and very creative ideas.

[@ThomasGiles]

I was thinking the same! Vintage pear was great, and Tom really taps into that vibe 😁

[@andrewweisbrod4506]

How did that ending manage to be so provocative? All I could do was laugh quietly and wimper "nooo..."

[@helgecko]

I had the exact same response XD Chuckling uncomfortably and muttering “no no no..” alone in my house…

[@justinfritz4817]

isopropyl alcohol should clean the ink right up fam, I got you. That or write dry ink over it and it should rub off

[@tjpinedo4072]

When meat boy smile, I smile

[@christianbraun5426]

Such a lovley dissection/operation scene at the end. As a boardgaming forensic pathologist, I approve of this very much ;)

[@Dztbrawler]

Loved this review Tom! While I am haunted by the implications of Meat Boy, I will accept him as one of your many beloved characters. Keep up the good work!!

[@nohbody987]

The ending absolutely slayed me

[@AchanCham_]

Great video. The review cam and scrolling ticker being there for way too long was an incredible joke.

[@RicardoMorenoAlmeida]

We're getting quite surrealistic there, aren't we??? WOW... That was a trip.

[@tahunuva4254]

I heard about a streamer who once peeped the horror. That guy was zonked.

[@m3grim]

1:05 I'm counting the script on toilet paper as a Battle Royale reference. Congratulations, Mr. Fukasaku, you've finally made it to the big leagues.

[@mattroso1210]

So good. I love this boy and I'm definitely going to watch a KZbin again.

[@hardeslaper]

The Meat Boy ending gave me Don Hertzfeldt vibes 💛

[@Narniaru]

I have nobody to play any of these games with and probably never going to buy any but I love watching you guys. Thank you so much

[@santeeblack3580]

Rush MD is so much fun to play, or rather it plays you. I love having all these oddball games in my collection, there obtuse breaths of fun air between runs of new or dry, or heavy , game nights. Thanx Tom

[@thegeneralissimo470]

Love the sound you mad when you realized the ink bled through the bog roll onto the table.

[@Sekacnap_]

Was expecting another "Boy Cured" at the end there lol

[@davidmelon9409]

[@Torakosama]

On a bit of a binge for this channel and I will say, I audibly shouted at the TV "no" in horror at meat boy, because it was weirdly unsettling but still enjoyable. 😂

[@scottcameron174]

[@VinceCaramel]

[@ShadayAV]

I'm looking at Patreon thinking "Meatboy in stop-motion is an honorable endeavor filled with purpose". Great video and reviews, btw!

[@Trav18]

That ending was very David Firth. Loved it. Never change Tom.

[@ulysescolon2183]

Im 1:39 seconds into this video and it is pure madness. I expect this fever dream to continue throughout the video. That's a Thumbs up from me!

[@ulysescolon2183]

I was not disappointed

[@joelface]

I paused it at the same time because I expected the top comment would be in reference to him screaming "NOO-" about the marker on the table. haha.

[@IstasPumaNevada]

Could you bring back the Kitchen Rush Review Cam next review? Just title the box "Back by popular demand; Kitchen Rush Review Cam" and offer no explanation. Especially if it's not popular; that would make it even funnier. I could do without more meat boy though.

[@Bleuchz]

Happy that Tom finally joined the ranks of "The Knights Who Say 'nu'"

[@DarkLeviathan8]

I've rewatched the first like 2 mins intro of this video like 10 times already it's sooo hilarious.

Legitimately surprised that the Meat Boy segment did *not* end with another "Boy Cured" popup.

Feels like these games would be great to play once or twice in a boardgame bar rather than at home.

[@SkaiaMechanic]

Even for a Tom review, this was rather...unhinged. Like he thought of a funny joke to include in part of it, put it in, decided it actually wasn't that funny, but then decided to triple down on the joke to make it MORE FUNNY rather than cast it out. I mean, I enjoyed the double review, I'm just unnerved, that's all. Putting a copy of a previous review into a box at the bottom of the screen was genius though.

[@4_EST]

Nice one! Looking forward to part 2!

[@fireant202]

For Science! looks great to me but 1) it's been perpetually out of stock since I first heard of it on NPI's channel and 2) I already have Junk Art (highly recommended by SUSD and myself) so it feels a bit redundant as it's the same game dressed up in different clothes and more rules.
