Merry CRIMEmas! | Anime Jigsaw - HoHoHomeInvasion [JINGLE GRUMPS]

Danny has his "im SO tired" voice which means these episodes are going to be fantastic!

[@andrewjenkins9965]

True. He always gets goofy when he's tired. 😆

Tired Danny is extra salty🧂

[@IgnatiusBlaze4]

I hope one of them is a horror, maybe that's why he's exhausted rather than bored exhausted, like revisiting Krampus or something. Don't get me wrong I hope we still get some solid Christmas ones like I love those ispy like games.

[@misterspiggins]

Somehow the grumps playing a game that literally cannot be a whole episode and then switching to an equally strange game perfectly creates what I want in the Christmas season.

[@Slightly_Decent]

Exactly why the Daze Before Christmas episode from so long ago will always be one of my favorites.

[@crystaldollhouse]

"Wish you were my side piece, Arin." "I can be but you always playin, dude." Lmao 11:40

[@SheaWaiteAMDG]

There’s no way they do this for half an hour… right? Ok nevermind I didn’t realize they’d have the office version

[@attackdoughnut]

I don't know which one is Arin trolling more, Dan or the audience.

[@Dragon359]

If there was ever a time where a punch delivered to Arin's groin was warranted, it'd be for something like this episode. Still funny, but yeah, a dick-punch is due.

[@andrewjenkins9965]

Yes.

[@outcastedOpal]

Dan is a stand in for the audience

[@StuRush]

It's just.. OH GAWWWD

[@goblinounours]

Why not "both"? I gotta say, 10 minutes of the "anime jigsaw" thing was too much for me to handle, I'm stopping the video there, and I'll skip the next Jingle-Grumps episodes, if they're immediately digging in the 1$ garbage-bin of Steam. I wouldn't want to be in Dan's place.

[@SoldrfMfortune]

I'd enjoy a "Dan's 8 Days of Game-ukkah" or a one off "Dan's 8 Games of Hanukkah" where Dan plays games he remembers receiving as a gift.

[@Pringless16]

This is a truly wholesome idea. Full support to this initiative ❤

Arin- Fun Fact, in the Dakota Language, C is pronounced as a CH sound. K does the hard consonant work. Get your point though. "English" is a language full of redundancies, exceptions to rules, and alot of adapting words from other languages.
