@@herobrineharry7698 he thought a pokemon was a certain type and it led to twitter people being mad about luxray or pokemon as a whole I dont understand pokemon or punctuation sorry

[@EDoyl]

@@herobrineharry7698 During a pokedoku NL guessed the pokemon (or "poke") Luxray was Dark-type, and defended his guess based on Luxray's dark fur and frowny face. Big Luxray fans (it's a popular pokemon) from south america were furious at him for not understanding the subtleties of Luxray and their anger nearly put him off Pokedoku forever.

Three-quarters of a chicken and cheese quesadilla dipped in "Father Ryan's Fucking Nothing Oil ™" 1:40:11 I'll never not enjoy the chili oil bit

[@EDoyl]

Librarian, my hero my champion, my knight in every armor, you know I would never dare insult you. You are the conduit from which the pogs flow and I am in your debt. So: Isn't your chat time-advancement a little too much? Like sometimes I see chat reacting to something that hasn't happened yet, or answering questions that haven't finished being asked. e.g. 33:14 "you cannot" completely comes out faster than "Can you say that?". There are some FAST typists in NL chat, and they end up being spoilers for whatever's about to happen since you push forward the chat so that the regular-speed responses are instant. I think it's worst in games like Lethal Company, where I see LULs filling the chat and now the surprising thing that's about to happen isn't as funny since I'm expecting it.

[@AuroraBorealis-dh6nr]

Yeah my brain is programmed to expect a chat delay, it's weird seeing people react at the same time as or even before the funny thing happens. Do better Librarian, smh my head.

2 hours left of work, bless you sir.

Roald Dahl’s illustrator is called Quintin Blake, he’s done a lot of different work over the years

I don't like the energy this comment radiates

[@CoolHandLuke196]

librarian can you photoshop NL's thumb that he showed a couple weeks ago into his head wearing his headphones

[@GoldenBeholden]

Dev energy on the guy spamming the "hidden gem" he wants NL to play from 30:33 onward.

1:08 me when I get Stuntman on Ante 1

[@thegrinderman1090]

This was so consistently funny. Thanks Librarian and NL.

that outkast fact checking bit knocked the wind out of me, holy fuck

Me when NL mentions his mom: "one of my oomfs!!!"

[@TheLibraryofLetourneau]

she's actually my oomf on twitter tho

[@MercMercury]

@@TheLibraryofLetourneau yes same lmfao

[@Regis_Philbin]

NL saying its hard to be Chiblee's friend but "through hard work and perseverance we got there" immediately followed by the ball getting knocked into the air and rolling down several sections was a powerful moment.

[@ORaylon]

BRASIL MENTIONED Mano que tipo de brasileiro assiste nl? Bizarro kekekekekekeke

[@RadarFinsR]

Hot take the dishes vs cooking thing really depends on a lot of things sometimes doing dishes is like 2 and a half seconds and cooking is 3 hours of stirring ragu. It all comes down to just be empathetic.

The guy who said "all balatro jokers are in a single switch case" made me do an actual spit-take- localthunk i love your game, can we start a donation fund for you to take a quick bootcamp and get you a better engine than Love2D 😭

[@TheLibraryofLetourneau]

bro that's how undertale works too and both run like a dream so clearly the code is the least important part of a game's quality

[@BogoblinGamer]

polymorphism son or switch case daughter?

[@TheRealFishyB]

Most oh the favs are built like that. And honestly if it doesn't wreck my machine I don't care. Minecraft, Terraria, Balatro. If you taught all that, they wouldn't have time to actually make the game. It just do be like that sometimes.

[@dylaann]

@@TheLibraryofLetourneau I was mostly just teasing, code definitely isn’t the most important part of the games quality just a meh attempt at a jab at love2d and switch cases cause i’m too online tbh, but i’ll leave it up so people can laugh at me

[@dylaann]

@@BogoblinGamer OOP they/them unfortunately 😭

[@tatzooism]

wait, dl_guiga is a brasileiro???? Verdade vazou??! (that's actually surprising tbh)

[@crimsonvale7337]

31:20 lingo is an awful choice for NL to play, puzzle streamers are few and far between for many reasons most of all being that it takes a specific type of streamer to make in interesting. Also, puzzle games are niche as shit, at that point just recommend sokobond express or something.

[@atpx8]

i mean you probably have a point but shush

[@stnfwds]

That's funny cause I got introduced to both NL and Aliensrock by searching for Baba is You playthroughs, and since at that time NL also did Chess and crosswords I thought he was cut from the same cloth as well
