Wil Wheaton is also an author and living god of the geek community. All the nerd ladies have the hots for him. Ask any random one of them.

i always thought he was a wiener.

synesthesia is actually pretty messed up. Some people taste colours or words etc so their always hungry. Or worse certain stimuli makes them smell/ taste/ hear bad things (usually in an arbitrary fashion).

i have to say it.
richard karn of home improvement should have played riker.

Olliver said...

I dunno. If I could say "spaghetti" and taste spaghetti bolognese, I would spend my day doing nothing but shouting "spaghetti" and constantly tasterbating.

I tell ya, it'd give a whole new meaning to the phrase "mouthing off".

Hey Fellow Bumpers!
Gave the podcast a listening to...and I want to apologize for the lack of articulation on my part. Boy, do I slur some sentences together! I can't even blame the beer. It's really just my own lazy self. And that couch of Dave's. I'm sure if you checked between the cushions you'd find the properly pronounced consonants.
Still...$1100 well spended.
To see where the magic happens. Pretty much can't price check that.

Dave said...

Emmett, I won't stand here and listen while you second guess yourself. Where's your new found sense of superiority? Besides, I edited out most of the consonants for time.

Dharma Mayonnaise said...

I'm sure it doesn't work like this but I wonder if people with synesthesia have jerk friends who say things like "shit" or "fat man's taint" all the time to them.

Actually, I'd like to nominate that for the Pranks segment: Saying inappropriate things to people with synesthesia.

Olliver said...

Emmett, given the circumstances, consider slurred words your own special blend of herbs and spices.

I enjoyed your appearance Emmett. Don't overanalyze yourself.

Emmett, you could have conducted the entire podcast with a mouth full of marbles and you would still be in the clear based on the awesome jingle alone.

Once again the awesomeness of this show has made me look like a fool on the subway. I was packed in a train during morning rush hour with people right in my face and I kept trying to hold in laughter so I wouldn't be laughing in people's faces, but when it got to "inter-galafrican" I lost it and did some weird half cough half laugh in some guys face and he didn't seem amused.

I also converted two friends to bumpers this week. That sounds oddly sexual.

Olliver said...

How did the reverse circumcision go?

That's how you do it, right? Reverse circumcision?

Dave said...

Reverse circumcision? Is that the process of converting your friends into bumpers or a side-effect of synesthesia? Seriously, is that what it is?

Olliver said...

Hey, it's your show, I don't write the lore.

Seriously, now. Where am I sending the ale, gentlemen?

Fondest regards,

Emmett said...

Oh hohohohhh!
Is that ales what I think it is?
Mic-Standstout?
And to think I made jocular slurs in regards to such sponsorships.
Oh...and thanks for all the support, bumpers and Dave. However, I still feel my mouth needs some exercise. Wit stings sharper when the point is well formed. I mean I wish I did the talking with better tung shapes.
