Polygon plays JACKBOX | "Sonic Will Finally Vape" feat. YOUR questions!

[@impwolf]

griffin, being a polygon ghost, is recorded with an emf reader at the beginning

[@ItTakesTwoReviews]

Ch'a'boi

[@porkinsdlx5764]

deet deet deet deet dee deet! Haunted Microphone watch!

[@Anafyral666]

nice ava

[@blackcat2333]

dont eat my ass spirits

[@flame_warp]

Oh shit hi spooky

[@jjju3]

"what kink will griffin accidentally saddle his brand with next?" "I am _NOT_ voting!"

[@binarycat1237]

Can I get a backstory for this?

[@anonimouse5533]

binary cat Griffin vored a banana on video at one point (he ate the whole top without peeling it) and the fanbase will never let him live it down.

[@divergentclouds]

@@binarycat1237 he had a series where he vored amiibos

[@endymionredacted1304]

I see you literally everywhere and that's beautiful

[@The_Jovian]

Abstinence kink

[@jaejae9906]

sounds like griffin is using his iconic 'amiibo corner' microphone here

[@beefxbeef]

I'm like legitimately upset nobody voted for Gooch Scooch Daganrompa, Brian deserves so much more

[@plushs]

i KNOW its been an entire year and i'm still so mad about that

[@radioreprise]

Alecia Gatlin i think every day about gooch scooch daganrompa

[@bigbadgammagnome]

I agree and everyone here is valid

[@AreweAble]

i'm still laughing at Gooch Scooch Danganronpa

[@storms1791]

I still weep when i remember Gooch Scooch Danganronpa

[@freefa4309]

Griffin's audio is being recorded from inside the Hellcube at the start

[@williamnownes7173]

Thundercat!

[@Abigail-hu5wf]

The only thing I love more than Simone being asked, kindly and quietly, "do you know what an acronym *is?"* is the quiet, mortified, hysterically whisper-laughing response of "I spelled it backwards in my braaaaain....."

[@rachelrachel9152]

Not for nothing but Tara does not ask that kindly and quietly but extremely judgementally lol

[@Souledex]

Even funnier is, it’s not an acronym it’s an initialism

[@shizaya]

I am deeply disappointed that an answer for G.S.D. was not "Griffin's Saddle-play Dungeon"

[@meking1808]

OH. MY. GOD

[@ciaradonegan1607]

“I’m so afraid of my big son” is literally the plot of Frankenstein, griffin must be psychic or something

[@TrekkerLLAP]

Ciara Donegan EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING

[@dracos0024]

Though considering that the monster said it, it's not ENTIRELY accurate. Yes, I'm lot's of fun at parties, thanks for asking.

[@1tylerq127]

Shinx002 Or is it. Has the son become the father?

[@Ovetupp]

Grian Savid Dilbert

[@tracyh5751]

Brian Mavid Gilbert according to Simone

[@samaraisnt]

same,

[@notjamin]

I'm so fucking glad that someone else thought this

[@FFigueira]

griffin sounds like he's on the other end of a walkie talkie but our end is covered with a pillow

[@ensokoth4670]

Hes talking thrpugh a wendys drive through speaker

[@boudicathebrave]

I *would* make fun of Simone's answer for the last one, but I spent the entirety of the time the answer was on the board trying to figure out what was wrong with it and couldn't crack it until, like, a full minute after the video ended.

[@dracos0024]

I'M NOT ALONE!!! PRAISE THE ANTI-POOPING GODS!!!

[@olojondro73]

boudicathebrave I still don't get it

[@boudicathebrave]

The acronyms are supposed to be "GSD" but Simone typed "Gettin so mad", which would have the acronym "GSM". She says she got so confused because "mad" ends in a "D" so she didn't realize what she'd done until she submitted it. I got confused too, haha.

[@dantefloressq]

Me too god why was it so hard to process

[@mellow_mallow]

God same I thought the problem was that she added "I'll be here all wee" and not that Mad is a word that doesn't start with the letter D

[@MoonSafariFilms]

"Nothing says 'Party' like a 6ft ceiling." is a criminally underrated answer

[@laurafrakinroslin]

I don’t know when these were recorded but for the last three videos (this one, Amiibo Corner Finale, The Overview on that spy game with Juice) Griffin has sounded like he’s much more relaxed. This is why I’m not sad that he’s officially leaving; the boy needed room to breathe. Everything he does do is going to be better now that he might be able to get some sleep.

[@ProfessionalClownDoctor]

This Griffin guy is pretty funny maybe Polygon should hire him!

[@e.hhampsen4508]

*Kicks down door* POLYGON DOT COM VIDEO PRODUCER

I THINK I’D BE AN ASSET TO THE TEAM, DON’T YOU SIR?

[@nidhipai3630]

@@madelainewentzel2362 I used to live in Baltimore but now I'm in New York!

[@ossifrages]

The only thing funnier than Gooch Scooch Danganronpa is that NOBODY voted for it

[@BigBoyMemeZone]

and that everyone voted for gettin so mad!!! thanks ill be here all wee

[@nerdpiggy]

I WAS SO FUCKING PISSED BRIAN DESERVED MORE

[@rileypaulin7441]

Brian is amazing and Gooch Scooch Danganronpa is amazing and he deserved to win

[@birdman6025]

and that he spelled danganronpa wrong

[@iwakeupandboomimarat]

@@birdman6025 everyone does

[@babs5821]

griffin: leaves polygon, immediately burns all his recording equipment

[@JulieKatJa]

i cant believe griffin is into saddle-play :/

[@comfycetenary]

“gooch sooch danganronpa” will be the battle cry of revolutionaries

[@nikoninja]

I love how you can always tell what answer is Griffin's his humor is so distinct lol

[@robinsparrow1618]

GSD: Gettin' So Mad!!!

[@evariste_galois]

simone saying "i spelled it backwards in my head" killed me sjskslsbslshsls

[@taakotuesdays]

beatriz b m that was deeply deeply relatable and I’m mad that it is

[@LittleCrimsonMonster]

as an egg lover i can no longer silently accept this hard boiled egg in a cup hate polygon dot com spreads

[@---fi2ml]

is it hate? i always was under the impression that they were just confused by it

[@dracos0024]

Is this what Humpty Dumpty died for? #EggsHaveRightsToo

[@BigBoyMemeZone]

they never say the little egg in a cup is hard boiled. perhaps the reason it seems to be so upsetting to everyone is that its just a small cup full of raw or scrambled egg?

[@taakotuesdays]

FUCKING THANK YOU I FUCKING LOVE HARD BOILED EGGS

[@Chloe_Zana]

Egg cups are for soft boiled eggs, though?

[@sarissena5424]

I'm so glad that simone didn't vote and messed up her acronym and still won the last round anyway

[@Fopenplop]

she makes up for not knowing the rules with her sheer gaming prowess

[@himynameishelen]

In some ways I feel like just slightly messing up your acronym is the meta game which assures you victory in the acronym round

[@bisko1]

polygon: sonic vapes yall: griffin....sound......

[@strungalobungalo1845]

Everyone already knew he Vaped after he started hanging out with that bad influence Shadow

[@bisko1]

sjmnansdnd this is the funniest response ive ever gotten

[@blackcat2333]

sonic is a good christian he does NOT vape!!!!!!

[@noxebop]

We're concerned if Griffin is really leaving or if Polygon is trapping his eternal soul in some type of customized orange GameCube and this is the only way he can request help.

[@rosesinthegard3n]

Brian is correct, he is all our favourite

[@spacetrashpile7199]

You can tell by the amount of comments demanding justice for Gooch Scooh Daganronpa

[@presidenttheo565]

This is Jenna erasure

[@kneazle3603]

I like simone and pat as much

[@lionsmith3944]

And all of the Mcelroys

[@chrissiefirefly5732]

I'm glad he knows

[@wardandson]

Polygon: “We’re so sad to have the McElroys leave us. Here’s a massive farewell fanservice video. So long” Polygon the next day: “Hey today’s video features a McElroy!”

[@glutenfreeguy104]

I think Simone mentioned in an ep of the polygon show that they record the Jackbox videos several weeks in advance

[@vstpnv]

also they said that they'll keep appearing in videos and even making Monster Factory

[@StarWarsGirl2011]

gooch scooch dangonronpa was way underappreciated

[@catboyhole]

i know right i would have given that one silver

[@radioreprise]

Emmy K the misspelling really added something to it

[@lenore-bw6qz]

I didn't get it, what is it a reference to??

[@RainbowLizardOne]

Someone's bad opinions

[@PleasantLeech]

Well the gooch is the area between your genitals and butt. And Dangonronpa is a Japanese murder mystery game, and that's basically as deep as the joke goes.

[@SlimeMage32]

Griffin is communicating with us from beyond

[@bubble992]

Secret Brian after credits scene

[@taakotuesdays]

Where he tries to say he isn’t musically talented as if we don’t know

[@Champiness]

Griffin didn’t vote on the fetish question, but his not-voting tipped the scales against “bug admiration”. I think we can at least say with confidence what his next year *should* have been.

[@shmehfleh3115]

Griffin's gonna be like that guy who hangs out around college long after he graduated, ain't he? I'm kidding. Please don't leave us!

[@novacanemway]

in the next installment of the hit sonic the hedgehog franchise, sonic will Finally GET TO HELP THE QUILTING CIRCLE.

[@endymionredacted1304]

where is my SONIC GAME WITH THE QUILTING CIRCLE

[@Sage-ec7gf]

Loving all these last-minute McElroy videos. I'll miss those boys.

[@binary_terror2]

Brian, I will not have you deprecate your own beautiful musical abilities!

[@electrapng]

I’m rewatching Jackbox videos and Simone’s final answer still manages to make me laugh so hard I cry. Simone is a national treasure that must be protected at all costs.

[@plubo5095]

"my knees has increased tenfold" is the funniest thing to me how was that vote 50/50???

[@breloomy]

i'm kinkshaming the video description.

[@OrionX700]

Headin' back to the piss well

[@tmmw1975]

Nice of Griffin to join them from the Moon at the beginning.

[@Raspberrysorbaet]

Gooch scooch daganrompa was funny! Brian, you got robbed.

[@thisistheborkvoice.718]

Jamie Newsome i always go for brian but he’s won in like one of the jackbox vids i’ve seen

Odd thing I noticed about all the even splits: many were along gender lines even though the answers had no relation to gender.

[@BeccaMoses]

also clocked that

[@Moocow2003]

if there's one thing us ladies love, it's callbacks to jokes about hard boiled eggs

[@ginargent5077]

[@kolteel]

THE FACT THAT BRIANS ACRONYM WENT UNRECOGNIZED IS SO UPSETTING

[@swordswaltzing]

every once in a while I think about the phrase gooch scooch danganronpa and die

[@quinnprice6991]

Justice for gooch scooch dangonronpa

[@superdog4343]

Griffin left so they took revenge on him by making him use the Bad Mic™️

[@oweneastwood2223]

at the beginning I thought griffin just sounded like that because he was far away from polygon now

[@TheLandWin]

“Six foot ceiling” is a goddamn UNDERRATED hilarious answer

[@wrijack]

my GSD acronym: Grian Savid Dilbert

[@micklynchcomposer]

Did Griffin reference his own TV show with the "...You know ;)"

[@cameron9087]

i don't want to believe that brian knows danganronpa exists. i think brian is too good to know what danganronpa is. i'm shaking

[@sorio99]

4:42 Girls like memes, boys like coffins.

[@mercurymoss3981]

In this video we see that BDG knows what Danganronpa is enough to mention it out of context so my point is unraveled Danganronpa episode when???

[@jackgittings739]

Never 😭😭

[@coulrophagia]

there's the beans.

[@chrissiefirefly5732]

i love this video because brain realizes he's the favorite

[@saprogeist31]

pffft Brian saying "people who are actually musically talented" in the outro as if he doesn't have the voice of an angel his band is called The Altogether if you're unaware of it

[@evanicole7099]

Simone's laugh is the cure for all of the evils of this world.

[@ZodiacCloud]

9:20 griffin says "there's the beans!" He used his favourite punchline!

[@ignaciogmartinho]

Brian vowing to make therapycore music a thing makes more and more sense the more we know about him.

[@brightey3s231]

The pit is filled with Griffin, that’s why his audio sounds like that.

[@WetSaucySlommy]

My favorite polygon member, the phone guy

[@karabirb]

Idk what’s more sad, Simone writing “getting so mad” on that last prompt, or the fact that I didn’t see anything wrong with it till the end of the round

[@nurusara]

god i cant wait for spike chunsoft to release Gooch Scooch Danganronpa

[@pixelatedcorpse]

ukki ok same

[@superneko99]

these jackbox videos are honestly the only thing i have left to live for

[@ToadstoolTrav]

"was that a play on words or was that you honestly seeing the word mechanic and reading it literally" ummm I read it literally and didn't realize I shouldn't have until he said that xD

[@rachelrachel9152]

That was so exactly what it was lolll

[@NestorCustodio]

Simone's laugh is something else (in a good way)!

[@novathehybrid917]

2:50 was my question!! I'm so proud

[@Zanthosus]

Brian making an unrecognized Danganronpa reference is the saddest thing in this video.

[@UsotheMarshmallow]

brian i'd support your 'gooch scooch dangonronpa' even though no one else did

[@anthonyramos2874]

ive seen this one many times, but i just misread the titile as "sonics final vape"

[@Kokorisu]

I have just recently found this channel and Simone's weird goose witch laugh gives me a reason to live.

[@Stevonicus]

Can I request that y'all collaborate with Drawfee sometime? I think Simone and Julia should meet.

[@tylerene]

Stevonicus The McElroys already have if you haven’t seen it, but I agree Simone and Julia would be hilarious together

[@Ghostpigeon5304]

That would be awesome!

[@cottontaelle]

they give off such a similar energy

[@tracyh5751]

Update: Simone was in the recent Scooby Doo episode and it was great.
