3* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dsui0TVYk_Q The Toilet Pizza]] ([[http://countermonkeybook.blogspot.com/2007/11/chapter-6-toilet-pizza.html Text Version]]), from Spoony's musings about what brought it about to him putting it to use. Though at the end he notes that the only reason the story is funny is because nobody got seriously ill and/or died, which could have easily happened.
4* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKokzmbBbOE Invisible Jason]] ([[http://countermonkeybook.blogspot.com/2008/02/chapter-7-invisible-jason.html Text Version]]), where he recounts one of his friends managing to stand perfectly still on a car hood (and not even his own car) for ''sixteen hours'' just to avoid getting killed out of a game. By the time he's describing his returning the next morning and shouts "He's still there!", Noah is clearly right back in that moment of pure disbelief.
5** This exchange between him and Jason: "'Um, is that your car?' He goes, 'What? No.' ''[{{Beat}}]'' 'What are you doing on someone's -- ''why are you ON a car?!'''"
6** Oreo is sitting on the arm of the couch trying to grab a toy off his lap, but once he starts acting out what Jason was doing, she stops to stare at him with a completely puzzled expression.
7** "You've been standing on the hood of a car for 12 hours? I know guys in the military who couldn't do that!"
8** And when Spoony tried to get him off the car in the morning, the first thing Jason did was ask if the woman he was originally hiding from was gone.
9* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnPM7I49fj8 Shadowrun: The Squirt Gun Wars]]", his new puppy Oreo's various interruptions of his story which include jumping up on the couch beside him and trying to play (which involves biting his arm) and running into the camera while he is recording causing the whole camera to shake.
10** She breaks one of her toys after just a few days, much to Spoony's outrage, and then provides the perfect deadpan reaction at his saying at the end "Can I help you?"
11*** "This dog... [[VideoGame/{{Ripper}} is un-fucking-believable]]!
12*** It's funny to consider the filming of one of Spoony's shows or Vlog's from Oreo's perspective. Occasionally her owner puts on a costume, his voice changes and he runs around acting weird and screaming at a camera. She doesn't know ''why'' he does these things and has no idea that it's a skit or that he's making a review show- just what does she think is happening?
13** The subject matter of the video itself is pretty hilarious. Just goes to show the raw potential of chemical warfare when you put thought into it.
14** The funniest moment is when one party member walks into a building, and when the guy at the front desk asks him what he wants he responds by saying "I would like to look at my HANDS!" and kills him with wrist mounted DMSO canisters. The way he says it is ''hilarious''.
15* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut8TBd4Mr_w Vegan Steve & The Djinni of Jengai Fomogo]]", detailing the epic rise and fall of Vegan Steve after sending one of Spoony's old ''Dungeons & Dragons'' campaigns {{Off The Rails}}.
16** "[[WhamLine I wish for a Deck of Many Things!]]" Every other player immediately gives Steve a DeathGlare, which Spoony describes as everyone "trying to make this fucker's head explode with their mind".
17** Oreo's fascination with his circular hand movements.
18** The repeated references to Steve being a "fucknut."
19* Oreo shows up again briefly in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzWoFIRxINA All Jedi or No Jedi]]", and just as Spoony describes something as "boring" she gives a [[FunnyBackgroundEvent big, perfectly-timed yawn]].
20** He advises us to either make every player a Jedi or not use them at all when playing a ''Star Wars'' RPG, because otherwise you'll always get the non-Jedis trying to horn in on the Jedi battles.
21** He made the mistake of giving Darth Vader a cameo in one of his campaigns, causing all the players to immediately drop the story in favor of hunting down and killing Vader, while Spoony desperately tried to get them back on track.
22** He recounted [[MightyGlacier Wookiee players]] who had maximized their body stat to [[MadeOfIron such ridiculous heights]] that they could NoSell ''lightsabers''!
23* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3AEBnH1kAM Vampire: Spoony's Jyhad]]". His ultimate revenge is mainly a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, but also hilarious.
24* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1AT_FbOR0Y Tandem's Last Ride]]":
25** The entire thing, right from the stoner caterpillar to the battle against the Lich.
26*** One of the highlights was when they realized that [[EverythingIsTryingToKillYou Everything Really Is Trying To Kill You]], so they declare war on Wonderland and start killing everything in sight as a preventative measure.
27** "''He's a twentieth level monk[[note]]As Spoony notes, the Dormouse is actually a wererat, what he fought was the March Hare[[/note]]!''" *loud squeak by Oreo's squeaky toy that almost sounds like a frightened squeal*
28*** The visual of the barely alive Tandem stabbing the remains of the Dormouse, to the point where his party members had to drag him off.
29** Him singing "He's trying to enchant us! He's trying to enchant us! FUCK-ING-KILL-HIM~!" Also the idea of an elven bard singing Music/IronMaiden as a counter-song. And he did it at the table.
30** The description of how Zeus literally kicked Tandem's ass off Olympus for boning one of his daughters (he ''thinks'' it was Athena, but he was pretty drunk at the time), which is hilariously hypocritical considering it's ''Zeus'', the patron God of ReallyGetsAround himself.
31*** Also somewhat impressive, given one of Athena's titles was "the virgin".
32*** His reaction to Zeus [[CoitusUninterruptus walking in on them]]: "[[DefensiveWhat What?!]] '''She''' came onto '''me'''!!"
33** The multiple {{Not Making This Up Disclaimer}}s he gives for "Castle Greyhawk", including the legendary mage Mordenkainen is a dimensional traveler who films movies in his castle using real monsters, an encounter with the cast of ''Franchise/StarTrek'' (complete with phasers), and getting into a fight with [[Myth/NorseMythology Thor]] because you walk into his dressing room.
34* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtL4rBzEgug The Age of Manure]]". "Everything went to shit!"
35** The entire backstory of the Manure Golem, covering three pages front and back. Be prepared to stop the video because it hurts to keep laughing.
36** This golden exchange:
37--->'''Bennett:''' ''(reading)'' "'It wasn't long before a man named Hinsty David tried using [magic dog crap] on a golem. [[CaptainObvious The result was devistating]](sic)." ''(dissolves into laughter)''\
38'''Spoony:''' [[{{Understatement}} I bet it was!]]
39** "Realizing that the Manure Golems were uncontrollable, Hinsty David created the Rod of Manure."
40--->'''Spoony:''' [[ToiletHumor I create a rod of manure every day.]]\
41'''Bennett:''' ''(laughing his ass off)'' I do that every morning.
42*** Moments later, when they read that the Rod of Manure lets one control manure, they start trying to figure out how the hell that works and settle on the image of doing the Indian Snake Charmer routine...with poop.
43** Their rendition of Hinsty David showing off the golem to Mr. Mockingham.
44--->'''Spoony:''' Mr. Mockingham, you've gotta come! ''Look what I did!!'' I made a golem out of ''shit''!!\
45'''Bennett:''' ''(near tears)'' Not just any shit! Are you sitting down?\
46'''Both:''' ''(in unison)'' [[MundaneMadeAwesome MAGIC DOG SHIT!!]]\
47'''Spoony:''' It moves! It was devastating!
48** Spoony's fascination with the "double club." And then he and Bennett spend ages thinking up double version of other weapons.
49*** Made even funnier with the "Double Spiked Club".
50* While the ''Literature/ThievesWorld'' story gets ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKgmhmEtgx4 really]]'' dark, '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8ZarCRE2g0 really]]''' fast, the story of some no name idiot mage throwing a bottle of acid at Tempus Thales face still had me laughing for five minutes straight. It couldn't have been a better punchline if Spoony had ''planned'' it because it was all set up perfectly, from the minor tangent early on talking about the devious horror of chucking flasks of acid at people in combat, to the descriptions of how he reacted to getting '''acid in the face''', it will leave you gasping for breath.
51--> He got a flask of acid to the face- ''there's no good way to take that!''
52** What makes that particular moment even more hilarious is that, usually it's impossible to hit Tempus Thales, and in fact, Spoony intended to have him dodge the flask or simply get hit in the chest and shrug it off as a mild annoyance. The problem was that the mage - precisely at that place and at that time - ''rolled a crit''. Spoony proceeds to reenact his reaction to it by facepalming and going "Oh... oh [[LittleNo no]]...".
53** Just the way he describes the reactions of the [=PCs=] during that moment is gold.
54--->'''Mage''': I-I thought it was cultists!\
55'''Other PC''': Well, '''''obviously fucking NOT!!'''''
56** The other players extensively debating ways to collect the bounty on their mage friend without being double-crossed, ''while standing right next to him''. Especially this part:
57--->'''Mage''': Guys, there's no way Tempus Thales is going to let you live even if you give me to him.\
58'''Other PC''': Yeah, you're right. But on the other hand, ten thousand gold pieces!\
59'''Mage''': Yeah...
60** Spoony going from describing Tempus [[spoiler: skullfucking a bar maiden to death]] to realizing Oreo is off in the corner having a dream.
61** Spoony's subsequent horror at "unleashing the darkness" due to his players responding to the above by committing even worse atrocities.
62** Spoony constantly making fun of Matthew's "I'm not that kind of a thief", turning it into a RunningGag thorough the story.
63--->'''Spoony''': I just remembered, it was Matthew who was the first to die (killed by Tempus Thales in the final BossFight). Guess he wasn't the kind of thief who fights well.
64** His frustration with the player who created a character devoted with the goddess of death, who was always brooding and even seeking out corpses to sing her praises over. He was only kept around because he could heal people; and even then he would only heal them if they would promise to say a prayer to the goddess.
65---> '''Spoony''': Ugh. (''bored monotone'') "I pledge allegiance to the Reaper..."
66* While the "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc8Ubesn9GA The Prisoner Dilemma]]" vlog ([[http://countermonkeybook.blogspot.ca/2007/11/concerning-alignments-throttling.html Text Version]]) is mostly a serious talk about CharacterAlignment, the part about ChaoticNeutral characters is worth a chuckle.
67-->'''Spoony''': A ChaoticNeutral character could very well burn down the orphanage, I would be like "Why did you do that!?" and they would be like "*Shrug* Eh.". *Shrugs* ''I can't argue with that''!
68* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeSVjfYaMGk The Importance of Wearing Pants]]" (the title alone being comedy gold), Gary, an especially flaky player in the same '' Thieves' World'' game detailed above, once called in to say he'd be late, because he had to go back home to get his pants. "[[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer It's so stupid, it had to be true]]" and Noah spends the next 15 seconds assuring us that he didn't make it up.
69** After Gary's wife turned out to be horribly racist, one of his friends developed a complete {{Bile Fascination}} with it and kept trying to get her to keep talking about it.
70*** Spoony's completely baffled reaction to why said wife even felt comfortable with sharing her extreme viewpoint with him, a complete stranger.
71--->'''Spoony:''' ''I'm a Nazi!''
72*** And then he tells her that the friend she calls a wetback (i.e. Mexican) [[MistakenNationality is actually Polish]], and that on top of being a racist she was also massively stupid.
73** Oreo randomly licking Burton's arm near the beginning.
74* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNrU0_A-PFk Dungeon Mastering A Great Game]]", he provides a tip for dealing with players addressing a PlotHole: simply saying "Yes, that is odd..." or a similar phrase (coupled to an enigmatic smile) can turn an immersion-breaking error into an OhCrap moment, getting the players paranoid that things aren't what they seem.
75** A wizard once mocked his half-orc thief that a six-foot six, burly half-orc was the least stealthy character possible and couldn't steal anything. Spoony responds by promptly clubbing the wizard over the head, mugging the guy, and tell the other party members to tell the wizard when he wakes up that he stole the guy's money, demonstrating that [[CallBack he wasn't that kind of thief]].
76*** The wizard's [[ActuallyPrettyFunny lighthearted and amused reaction]] only makes it sweeter.
77* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVxkpOolpKw The Dungeon Master's Secret Weapon]]", his bit of HypocriticalHumour about how outraged a party of adventurers will get that someone ''else'' "stole their stuff that '''they''' had rightfully stolen!"
78** Another gem is Spoony's impression of the party after finding out their boots were stolen. "They stole our '''boots'''. They're wearing our '''boots'''."
79-->"They aren't actually wearing them, they're twice their size..."\
80"They are wearing our '''boots'''!"
81* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-TWXdSQYxU Don't Be That Guy]]" is a serious treatise on how NOT to play. It is filled with things you should do, like always know more than one type of spell (some things are immune to fire, so don't specialize in doing only fire damage and things like that), carry extra empty sacks and always carry more than one type of weapon just in case you meet zombies (resistant to piercing damage) or moving skeletons (resistant to everything but blunt damage)... Then he comes to alchemist character and why you shouldn't be one or even standing near one. It causes one of his epic rants.
82--> Oh, by the way, be careful when throwing fire. Really I've seen so many guys, they want to be that guy who carries a shitload of alchemist's fire. You know the guy. Yeah I've had that guy, you know, in, like ,several games. I've had that asshole who's like "I want to set fire to everything. *chuckles* I've got like 10 flasks of alchemist's fire and I just chuck it out whenever I feel like. You know, I've got four ranks in alchemist so I can make more frickin' alchemist fire haha!". That guy's gonna set himself on fire and he's gonna take you with him, I guarantee it. Because one of these days he's gonna throw his alchemist fire, he's gonna botch the roll and not only does he fail to throw it forward he throws it behind himself. And guess who's behind him? You are! So guess what, he just set your ass on fire, have fun with that! And worse yet he's like only five foot in front of you so when the alchemist's fire goes up, he goes up and guess what he's wearing? He's wearing nine more flasks of alchemist's fire and if the DM is an asshole (which I am) he's gonna be like "Oh guess what, guess what also goes up?" So he rolls a saving throw for every single alchemist's fire. Two of them fail which is actually pretty good rolls for the nine flasks of alchemist's fire. He still explodes. Seen it. Seen it a lot. That's also the... That's also the case in any kind of western game. There's always the guy who carries around dynamite because he's like "Wow dynamite does a shitload of damage. I'ma throw dynamite at those guys, cuz' they're hiding behind barrels and they're really hard to shoot". One of these days he's gonna mess up his throwing roll. He drops... he drops the dynamite five foot in front of him and then you got bad times. Yeah, that guy.
83* From WebVideo/D20Live:
84** The recounting of "The Greatest Swordsman in the World". A single boast by Tandem the Spoony pisses off the wrong guy, a dedicated sword specialist, who felt his honour was sullied. He challenges Tandem to a duel to first blood - he botches, losing his sword, as Tandem gets a crit. He concedes, but follows Tandem around, asserting his boast around powerful fighters in hopes to get him killed. However, he wins every battle, even managing through luck and guile to defeat a gigantic, tree-wielding gladiator by crippling his primary arm and finishing him off with DeathByAThousandCuts. The gobsmacked specialist never bothered him again. Doubles as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome.
85*** Spoony tells this story to fill time while Big Mike sets up the game. Then in a BrickJoke as soon as the game starts and YouAllMeetInAnInn, Spoony introduces himself to the others as "Hi, I'm Tandem...''the Greatest Swordsman in the World!''" (audience laughter)
86** People in the crowd keep calling out references to Spoony's Ultima IX review, especially "What's a paladin?"; sometimes this is funny but other times it's just annoying. Then a few minutes later, Spoony tops them all when the DM says that the campaign is set in a land called "Britannia" and the crowd reacts...
87--->'''DM:''' That wasn't deliberate, Spoony.\
88'''Spoony:''' No, it's okay. I have an advantage. After all, ''my knowledge of the land shall be great!''
89** Spoony looks at his skills and is pissed that Big Mike gave him 0 in Thievery...but on the other hand, he has 12 ranks in [[ForScience Science]]. One has to wonder if Big Mike knew what he was doing with that one.
90*** When Spoony reads this out, the crowd cheers and a fan yells "Science" in a Doctor Insano voice.
91** Early in the adventure, the quartet decides to find a prostitute in order to get information. One of the adventurers decides to step into the center of town and yell "I require a prostitute!". Later, they see a suspicious-looking man who they steal a scroll from, only to find it is instructions for a role-playing game; earning a "What?!" from the party.
92--->'''DM:''' Congratulations guys, you mugged a bunch of Dungeons & Dragons geeks.
93*** As they're leaving, Roo uses the Mage Hand spell to turn one of the geeks' rolls into 1; they can hear the sounds of the players shouting from outside.
94*** And then, on the next roll, Linkara actually does roll a One! Spoony does question on how Meta the Game is.
95** And when they first hear the rumor about robed figures carrying sacks around town, Spoony speaks up to ask "are they alchemist-sized bundles?"
96** When Roo tries to ask where the missing alchemists were last seen, Big Mike tells him he didn't think to ask the employer before he left. Roo then says "okay, so we burn the town to the ground-" (*Big Mike {{Facepalm}}s*) "and when it's done, the alchemists will be in the ashes!"
97** Linkara accidentally killing an opponent he tried to immobilize with [[MemeticMutation an arrow to]] [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim the knee]]. The arrow alone wouldn't have killed it, but the fact that his opponent had several weapons stuck in his hide and a bag full of crushed glass in his face thanks to Spoony, combined with the shot to the knee being a critical hit, caused the opponent to fall over front first, impaling himself on the weapons.
98** In the intermission, Big Mike recounts how another DM was angry at him; Spoony, Roo, Dodd, and Linkara all chose distinct character classes and Big Mike assigned them unique skills. Meanwhile, in a different game the other DM was around for; the party was [[CripplingOverspecialization comprised only of fighters]], decided to fight [[LeeroyJenkins two Gorgons when underleveled and without splitting them up]], with the last action in that game before the [=ConBravo=] campaign started was one Gorgon [[GrievousHarmWithABody using one of the players as a club to whack the others]].
99** When they are trying to return the girl to her father, Spoony decides to distracted by "dedicating a song to her" while she's talking to a man in red robes. When they ask about the man's importance to the quest, Spoony's first words are:
100--->'''Spoony:''' Get lost, Nerd!
101*** On top of that, Spoony's song starts with "She's a very special girl, the kind of girl you don't bring home to Mother...and soon she's gonna be in a burlap sack and sent back home to her dad". He then belts out the chorus of Rick James' "Super Freak".
102** Better yet, the group argues about whether to tell the leader of the guild the truth ([[spoiler:they knocked his daughter unconcious after she drugged and stole from them, then tossed her in a burlap sack]]) or lie ([[spoiler:and blame the guy that she was with, whom they incidentally knock out in front of the leader]]).
103** When the party releases the missing alchemists, Big Mike says that one of them comes up to the group, with a mane of wild white hair looking bug-eyed. Spoony calls out "[[Franchise/BackToTheFuture Marty! You've gotta come back with me! Its your kids!]]", and Big Mike admits that this is exactly the joke he was making, and Spoony's impression is better.
104** Spoony's reminder that, as he decides to insult the dragon, he is firmly behind a tree. When the dragon snorts and flies into the air, he further comments "I know [[BreathWeapon where he's going with this]], which is why I'm still behind the tree."
105** When the dragon uses his breath weapon on Spoony ([[spoiler:actually just an illusionary image of him]]), Big Mike (the DM) rolls:
106--->'''Spoony: BOTCH!''' ''*stands up*'' [[LargeHam GREATEST IN THE WORLD!]] ''*starts chanting "Yes! Yes! along with the audience*''\
107'''Big Mike:''' Spoony... please look a little closer at the dice. It's a seven.\
108'''Spoony:''' ''*deflated*'' Oooh... *{{beat}}* You still miss, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch]].\
109'''Big Mike:''' ''*dejected*'' Yes, I do...
110** A lot of the hilarity at the end is Big Mike losing it as his dragon comes closer and closer to death. When Roo lands the finishing blow, Big Mike responds by calmly turning off his microphone, getting out of his chair, walking over to the wall, and [[AtomicFBomb proclaiming his displeasure to it.]]
111** Another amusing note from the crowd after everyone began to hit the fallen dragon's spine, "I DUB THIS PARTY 'SPINAL TAP'!"
112** When Tandem the Spoony gets a critical hit on the dragon's spine, the callback to 'greatest swordsman in the world' and Tandem's crazy luck:
113---> '''Spoony:''' I told you!\
114'''Big Mike''': I didn't believe you!\
115'''Spoony''': Nobody does!
116** The moment when Big Mike's campaign started coming completely undone: In the middle of the [[BigBad black dragon]]'s speech to its minions...
117--->'''Spoony''': [=ExCUSE=] me!\
118'''Big Mike''': Oh, for fuck's sake!
119* From "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdM4QTuE3hc Never Get On The Boat]]":
120** Spoony trying to stand back up a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Team Rocket]] stand that fell over before just casually tossing them aside.
121--->'''Spoony''': Team Rocket's blasting off again!
122** His talk on Takos. "I don't know what it is but I want it! There's a male tako and a female tako. I could go for some tacos right now!"
123** The way he keeps saying "Giant ''FUCKING'' Octopus!" in a pissed off tone near the beginning.
124** Generally, the way he portrays [=DMs=] as AdmiringTheAbomination as they gleefully look up "interesting" aquatic monsters to throw at the players.
125* The titular "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LusZp160bnA Bardic Knock Spell]]", which consists of simply knocking on a locked door and punching the person who opens up.
126* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RZL-jtQPWo The Trouble with Superheroes]]", he explains that the problem is with the powers defining what heroes can do.
127--> '''Spoony:''' It is not much fun playing Cyclops. Whenever your turn comes up, the DM asks you: What are you going to do? And your answer is always going to be "I'm going to shoot the bad guy with my eye beam." Okay, roll to hit. And next time your turn comes out, the DM asks you: What are you going to do? And your answer is still going to be "I'm going to shoot the bad guy with my eye beam". Boring!
128* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jYRP1DOhrU Hey Fatty! Let's Go To Mordor!]]", Spoony discusses the problem of setting a game in a franchise where the players already know what's going to happen and who turns out to be a bad guy, such as ''Series/BabylonFive'':
129-->'''Spoony:''' He's like, "[[CatchPhrase I'm Mr. Morden. I just have one question for you: What do you want?]]" And the guy's like, "I want to shoot you in the face with a [[{{BFG}} PPG]], motherfucker!" ''BOOM!''
130** He then talks about using an AlternateHistory type setting where there are recognisable characters but they might not turn out the same way as the original, and suggests that Mr Morden could turn out to be 'a harmless encyclopaedia salesman'.
131** His rebuttal to arguments that the Fellowship of the Ring should have rode the eagles to Mount Doom: Sauron would've easily seen them coming and annihilate them with the Fell Beasts.
132--->''Although, I would have loved to see them try that. If there was, like, if they were all full of assholes who were like "Yeah, let's do this and fuck up Spoony's game," I'd have fuckin' wasted you and I would have laaaaaughed doing it!''
133** After ranting for ''over two hours'' about every topic that popped into his head, he finishes by summarizing it thusly: "[[ComicBook/XMen Cyclops]] is a douchebag, ''TabletopGame/CallOfCthulhu'', awesome."
134* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnMzDyIJT2g Thou Shalt Not Fuck With the Lady of Pain]]": "Ah, [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries Jessie]], you top-heavy bitch."
135** "[[TabletopGame/{{Planescape}} Sigil]] is a shitty... [[FreudianSlip uh, city]] shaped like a donut... a donut [[ItMakesSenseInContext on top of an infinite pizza]]. I don't make this up, it's a torus. [{{beat}}] It's a donut."
136*** This was followed by several people in the comments talking about pizza and donuts.
137** One player attempted to [[DidYouJustScamCthulhu intentionally get "mazed" by the Lady and use his racial ability to get out of maze]] [[BraggingRightsReward just so he could say he did it]]. Spoony's response? Have the Lady trap the guy in a maze that's a straight line and 100 million miles long, and worse, due to his ability the guy ''knows'' exactly how long it is.
138*** Before that, Spoony going on a tangent.
139-->'''Spoony:''' I totally fucked him over in the end! *{{Beat}}* Actually, he tried to fuck me over first, so I counter-fucked him!
140** The repeated callbacks to "Tandem's Last Ride" and how Zeus kicked his ass off Olympus.
141** Spoony pointing out that in the ''Literature/{{Dragonlance}}'' setting you can play a [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot Pirate Wizard Minotaur]].
142** Spoony goes through several sourcebooks about different character types looking for a particular one. With a puzzled expression he holds up the first one and we see its title is "Paladins":
143--->'''Spoony:''' ''(in confused tone)'' ...[[CallBack What's a paladin?]]
144* The description of a succubus in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNAk39Jm88Q Beware the Woman, for They Come from Hell]]":
145-->"In case you don't know what a succubus is -- you probably have a fairly good idea -- but what she is is a sex devil! They take your soul by fucking you! They suck your soul out through your dick! That's what they do!"
146* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9xj6yQIP2Q Laundry Day in the Tower of High Sorcery]]", we start out with Spoony obsessing over the [=D&D=] Ninjas handbook, wondering aloud why he never rolled a Ninja, then getting more and more convinced Ninjas were meant to be a practical joke, as their skills included Giant Kite Flying.
147** Suggesting the only reason why anyone would choose to be ''explicitly evil'' was so they had easier time on laundry day (they get black robes). Then suggesting the evil wizards would throw in a neutral wizard's red robe in with the good wizards' white robes to make them pink as a prank.
148*** One of Spoony's descriptions of things an evil person would do is "You would kill a man for a ham sandwich.", said in an honestly disapproving tone.
149** "People don't change their gods like they change their pants!"
150** "Yeah, I compared ''TabletopGame/DarkSun'' to ''Film/MadMax''. Still can't get [[RunningGag beyond Thunderdome]]".
151** He mentions that the main god of goodness in ''Dragonlance'' is called Paladine. Cue "[[RunningGag What's a Paladine]]?"
152* Oreo's interventions in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKqX2LfUZGg Counter Monkey Punk]]" are even more hilarious than usual, looking plaintively into the camera even when Spoony's looking away, 'reading' Spoony's Cyberpunk source books when he's trying to leaf through them, and jumping up into his lap at just the right moment to surprise him into losing his train of thought.
153** Spoony's rant about how a later edition of ''Cyberpunk'' (specifically, ''Cyberpunk V3'') replaced the line drawn character art of the first edition with 'green photos of dressed-up action figures' and how this meant it was impossible for anyone not already familiar with the game to take it seriously.
154*** [[http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j8/theamazingfanboy/barbiepunk2.jpg Here's a link to some of the art,]] just so you can understand what Spoony's going on about. All of those are from the actual book. Somehow, looking at it makes it funnier and even sadder at the same time.
155** The title in a meta sort of way, for being [[Wrestling/CMPunk a reference]] that has nothing to do with the video, isn't brought up in it, and few people are going to get.
156* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVnCxG1IsXw Connection Time Out]]" has Oreo just rising into the shot approximately six minutes in.
157* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeVofHZ-VvQ Cthulhupunk]]", Spoony makes a "[[ComicBook/AmazonsAttack Bees.]] [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall My God.]]" joke concerning, well, a deadly bee weapon.
158* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRfrNeBspEE The Jedi Hunter]]":
159** Crazy Mike, given a SurferDude voice by Spoony, is described as being "a half-[[Creator/KeanuReeves Keanu]]".
160** Spoony's impression of a Jedi Holocron speaking with a Yoda voice.
161** "By the way, those robes light up real good, don't they?"
162** Describing how during the aforementioned flamethrower incident [[ATruceWhileWeGawk everyone else stops fighting to stare at the flaming sith lord running past]].
163** He refers to the Sith Lord they were fighting as "Darth Fuckyouupicus" and later "Darth Kickyouassicus".
164** The RunningGag of Spoony saying "I'm glad you asked that!" to Crazy Mike, who then goes OhCrap as Spoony pulls out yet another gadget he found in the technology sourcebook.
165** (While talking about the Expanded Universe's obsession with superweapons) "There was [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Kyp_Durron this guy]] who turned Sith and stole the Sun Crusher and started...[[ShapedLikeItself crushin' suns]]."
166** He talks about stun and kill settings on blasters in ''Franchise/StarWars'' and then contrasts it with ''Franchise/StarTrek'', mentioning that in the recent reboot it's now colour coded: "Blue for stun, and red for ''OUCH!''"
167* His April 1st video "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iiop7tiV9U Gary Gygax Interview]]" is essentially one giant self-parody where Spoony makes fun of just about every common occurrence in his CM videos including going on tangents about obscure [=RPGs=] and at one point actively encouraging Oreo to "come over here and disrupt everything".
168** If you're watching it for the first time, it's also hilarious when you realize partway through that [[spoiler:he's narrating the plot from Film/{{Army of Darkness}}]]
169* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1495Y-oa4SM Dem Bones]]", his video on various dice:
170** His {{angrish}} over various bad dice, particularly the black ones with dark red numbering.
171*** "No. Fuck you. Fuck you... in the ''ear''."
172*** "[[ItMakesSenseInContext Fuck the elves and fuck Cthulhu!]]"
173** His amusement with the electronic dice when musing over ''TabletopGame/{{Shadowrun}}'' and ''Series/ThePriceIsRight'' applications.
174*** Especially how Spoony starts out wanting to complain about them, but somehow manages to convince himself they'd be cool in those roles halfway through his rant, derailing his own thread.
175** The Ten Commandments D10, and the fact that the only use Spoony can think for it is to answer "which one do I want to break today".
176** The overly-complicated multi-type die that somehow does D50 easier than the actual D50.
177** The story about the oversized die that split open after settling from a roll.
178-->If you roll so hardcore the die explodes... crit!
179** "[[MemeticMutation Yo dawg, I heard you like dice, so I put dice in dice so you could roll dice while rolling dice.]]"
180** When ranting about crystal dice, Spoony recounts a story of a player who kept rolling the d8 instead of the d10 all day. The funniest part is that he points at the d6 instead of the d8 while saying this, which pretty much proves his point about the various crystal dice being very difficult to tell apart.
181** Spoony [[DisproportionateRetribution threatening to murder anyone who brings over-designed dice to his games]].
182-->"I will fucking... '''[[IllKillYou KILL YOU]]''', you bring that shit to my table! ... [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Don't. Ever. Bring-]] I will jump the table and [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon strangle you with your own lungs!]]
183** Spoony's constant battles with the auto-focus. Especially funny if you watch WebVideo/StuartAshen's videos, where this has become a RunningGag, and are now watching Spoony discover the same problems for himself for the first time.
184** Bringing up the FridgeLogic of a glow-in-the-dark die since in order to see it glow you wouldn't be able to see your character sheet.
185* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uboK9KovMnY Spoony Gets Mazed]]". his reaction upon being eaten by the Dragon after almost making it.
186** Referencing Linkara's 'don't you know anything about science?'
187* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBl-i4KMSmI Childe Spoony to the Dark Tower Came]]":
188** The unintentional RunningGag of Spoony getting abruptly pounced on by a dragon and becoming pissed off, as in the last board game.
189** The ShoutOut in the video description:
190--> "He who does not watch this video [[Franchise/TheDarkTower has forgotten the face of his father]]".
191** Spoony talks about how the game is a rare collector's item and casually adds that he killed a guy to get his copy.
192** When the Dark Tower breaks down early on and Spoony has to fix it, he cuts away to bizarre 80s adverts for both the Dark Tower and the D&D game from last time.
193* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzOvTavIn40 Shadowrun: The Code]]", he is pissed with the players derailing his game so badly after the hard work he put into giving them a cool adventure, not to mention their slaughter of nine security guards and janitors, that when they enter the sewers he tells them that [[spoiler:the [[CyberneticsEatYourSoul Cyber]] [[AxCrazy Psycho]] [[GodzillaThreshold Squad]]]] is waiting for them. "Their assholes dilate so tight they could crush coal into diamonds...not all of them are gonna die. [[FalseReassurance Just most of them]]. And that's the point. That's [[TitleDrop The Code]]."
194** Spoony getting increasingly annoyed at the players' insistence that they should find a secret exit out of the museum on the map. A public map. Like the ones you get at the zoo with cartoon elephants pointing at the exhibits.
195--->"Eight successes"! ''(Flips the double bird to the camera with a little {{Angrish}})'' You could have rolled eight ''hundred'' successes, dickweed! The cartoon elephants aren't going to reveal a secret fucking door!
196** Noticing that one of the players had loaded his shotgun with Dragon's Breath shells. On mission to rob a public museum. Resulting in one security guard having his leg burned off. What sells it is his impression of how the player reacted towards to Spoony's incredulity.
197*** Also trying to remember who of the party members it was and after a short while recalling that it was the Elf-before immediately reprimanding himself for referring to player characters by their job, or worse, race because it's bad form, then changing his mind, reasoning that a player that mean doesn't deserve to be recognized by name.
198** As he starts to describe the actual break in:
199--->"So they start of and- and '''thank god''' they went at night! [[DamnedByFaintPraise At least they got]] ''[[DamnedByFaintPraise one]]'' [[DamnedByFaintPraise thing right]]."
200** The description and impersonation of the alarm going off and the Decker, still plugged into the network, reacting to it.
201* His amusement at Wrestling/TheUndertaker having a Strength score of 21 in the "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SA8mbwgsDF0 Know Your Role]]" [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWxjsEags8s RPG book]]. He even goes rummaging through his d20 books to see how that translates to lifting power. And later, when he gets to Wrestling/BigShow's stat block:
202-->"What's his Strength- TWENTY FOUR? [[BigOMG OH MY GAWD!!!]]"
203** Before that, Spoony talks about an old e-fed (think role playing but with wrestling) he was in. One of his characters was "The Ring Crew Guy", who is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin literally just the guy who cleans the ring.]] He was intended to be a complete {{Jobber}} who wasn't even supposed to wrestle. He got beat up by heels after they lost a match, and then he would be booked in matches inexplicably, in which he would lose some more. Strangely enough, [[EnsembleDarkhorse people liked him a lot just because the character was so ridiculous.]] Eventually, he was offered a tag team title shot if he could find a partner, and despite the fact that he NEVER wanted to win, got paired up with the BigGood Hulk Hogan {{Expy}}. He won the tag team title by having his unconscious body thrown on his opponent.
204** At the start of the vid he's reading the flavor text on the back of the book which narrates the famous Undertaker vs Yokozuna casket match. When he reads "Yokozuna attacked without warning", he pauses to question how someone like Yokozuna is supposed to "sneak up" on someone. "He's a five-hundred-and-seven-thousand-pound..."
205* From the "The Dirtiest Book in the Game" [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFR36BfY9bc two]]-[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJDrCkoGCOQ parter]]:
206** The short example tale for the LawfulNeutral alignment involving an arranged marriage... where the ''[[BaitAndSwitch guy]]'' is the one undergoing DroitDuSeigneur with the female lord.
207** Showing a photograph of a woman in kinky S&M attire... ''[[RunningGag that's a paladin!]]''
208*** In her character description, it suddenly gives details about her war horse. That said, there aren't any sex feats for horses.
209** Related to the above, apparently the book ''does'' discuss bestiality and necrophilia. At least, if [[EveryoneHasStandards it amounts to]] [[NoJustNoReaction rolling one's eyes and going]] [[{{Squick}} "Ugh!"]][[note]]They're listed as "Universal Taboos", things which almost everyone in a normal setting will consider utterly reprehensible; this list also includes child molestation, incest with immediate family members, and rape.[[/note]]
210** The extended game of 'guess the appearance score,' a stat which Spoony construes as a "how likely are you to have sex with this creature" score. The variance of the scores leads to lots of comedy and equal amounts of {{Squick}}. It sees humans as the baseline at 10, elves coming in at 14, some dragons pushing 18, and a unicorn reaching 24 (out of a theoretical maximum of 25 or so). It has a gelatinous cube make a showing at 2. It also has a black pudding's appearance score as a shameful ''negative'' 1.
211** Spoony reads off a list of fantasy sexually translated diseases, in the same tone as the pornographic films of John T-Bone from the Lethal Games review. Then he gets to one called "Whore's Delight" and starts singing "[[Music/TheSugarhillGang Rapper's Delight]]".
212--->'''Spoony: '''I said a hip hop a hippie to the hippie to the hip hip hop, you don't stop...
213*** "Lycanthropy. [[{{Beat}} (Slight pause)]] I didn't know you could get it like that."
214*** The list also includes "Mummy Rot," a pre-existing D&D disease unsurprisingly normally spread by the touch of a {{Mummy}} that causes a sufferer to rot away while alive. Spoony is nonplussed as to the idea that anyone would be inclined to [[{{Squick}} sleep with someone in such a state.]]
215** His TooMuchInformation reaction to having sex toys listed on one's character sheet.
216** Explaining why the Tantric Mage is the worst class because they require having sex to renew their powers -- which due to the logistics of most adventures would mean doing it within sight of his companions ''for hours''.
217--->To get his fireballs back he has to get his fireballs ''off''!
218--->'''I'VE GOT PLACES TO ''BE''!'''
219** Realizing that he's [[DiggingYourselfDeeper digging himself deeper]] the more he complains about the feats that let you extend a sexual act for ludicrous amounts of time.
220** His [[{{Corpsing}} utter failure to keep a straight face]] for ''any'' amount of time when discussing the [[spoiler: Cock Sheath of Pleasure]] magic item.
221* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2zTrMf4eH4 They Duel. That's What They Do.]]", Spoony recounts a story of his only game of TabletopGame/LegendOfTheFiveRings, where he spent an hour creating a character, another hour being confused at the setting (which he knew nothing about at the time), five minutes offending the Crane party member (by [[BlueAndOrangeMorality accepting an offer of tea before refusing it three times]] and carrying a katana) and the final five minutes being chopped into fishbait by said Crane party member ("Because they duel."). He's still bitter about it.
222** Also, his short-lived "realistic campaign" pirate - swung over to the opposing ship, flourished his cutlass... BoomHeadshot. Dead in the first round.
223* Likely not an intentional example, but he comments about how when you've got a Superman-esque boy scout character in the party, you shouldn't throw acid in people's faces. Considering how his ''Thieves' World'' campaign all started with one of the [=PCs=] throwing acid in somebody's face, that may have hit closer to home than it meant to.
224* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3VOZGFXTXU An Entirely Miscible Episode]]": Spoony's first character, Lance Stormshield, drinks two potions... and explodes. It gets even funnier from there.
225* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35IqrqIevrs BABOON!!!]]". The title itself clues you in that this is gonna be silly. Moments include one guy [[NeverLiveItDown getting frog-splashed by said baboon]], and the party, being his current group, being smart enough to try and [[GenreSavvy avoid getting on the show for stupid shit]].
226* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIuavbDijZM It's A Long Way to the Top if You Want To Rock & Roll]]", in which Spoony goes into the requirements of an original Bard, and just how ridiculous it was that they had higher stat requirements in certain areas than, say, a Paladin.
227--> '''Spoony:''' So Bards, usually, can out-bench a ''Paladin''. ...Just remember that. You know, hey, "Sturm Brightblade"? Don't go [[PrecisionFStrike fucking]] with me. I can squat more than you, alright?
228** He compares Bards in ''TabletopGame/AdvancedDungeonsAndDragons2ndEdition'' to the [[Literature/{{Dune}} Kwisatz Haderach]], which is not all that inaccurate, given the high stats required for entry into the class.
229** In the same game, Bards are divided into several different colleges, based on level. Bards of a certain college do not associate with those of a lower level, which Spoony compares to lower level bards having a dream for Sempai to notice them.
230* The ending of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Klfj2ZAStHM The OTHER Dirtiest Book in the Game]]", where he talks about a monster called Creamy Ooze. Yes, it's exactly what you think it is.
231** Spoony's general difficulty in maintaining composure while reading the material.
232** Everything pertaining to the "Mystic Pimp" prestige class.
233** Speculating that [[CallBack Hinsty David]], creator of the Manure Golem, was a Blue Mage.
234** The entire bit about Colossal Gay Al, [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext who for some reason is a humongous Allosaurus]][[note]]this is likely a reference to "Big Al" a nearly complete ''Allosaurus fragilis'' specimen discovered in 1991, making the whole thing a very bizarre GeniusBonus[[/note]] with CampGay traits through the roof, and Spoony's increasing disbelief as he reads the description.
235** Spoony's complete inability to get through the description of how a certain type of magical crab lives in "pubic or buttock crevice hair" without giggling.
236* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1a78wGV5ANw Roll for Initiative, Jesus!]]", the audience manages to [[ActuallyPrettyFunny get some laughs out of Noah]] with their suggestions. One asks if you get an Attack Bonus for collecting foreskins like David, and when another asks "Did they stat out Satan?" Spoony starts flipping through the book, remarking "Let's go get that motherfucker!" Sadly, it doesn't.
237** For that matter, just leaving through the index in the back of the book produces some great reactions, whether it's the "Desert Fertility" spell or the "Sin Dragon" enemy. Spoony remarks "I TOLD you this book was badass!"
238* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zR-56AZPuKA Sorbo The Conqueror]]" continues Spoony's tradition of characters with UnfortunateNames and just gets funnier from there.
239** WarElephants were one of the possible things you could inherit from a roll table, and Spoony happened to get one. Which he named [[FluffyTheTerrible Daisy]]. And references how WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons shows feeding one is a bitch.
240** Getting killed by their Barbarian who had gone berserk, at which point the party [[IfYouDieICallYourStuff immediately starts rolling to see who gets the elephant]]. While Spoony is sitting right there.
241** Talking about how his current campaign has a sentient wand who used to be a wizard named William, or Willy for short. And the FreudianSlipperySlope at the end where Spoony tries and fails to talk about Willy without it sounding dirty.
242* In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0r-G7towScQ Exploding Head Syndrome]]", he imagines using "Death Field" to wipe out zombies with ease, proposing trick shots and likening it to a firework display. Which he emphasises by humming the 1812 Overture.
243--> '''Spoony:''' Da da da da da da da da da da *boom*
244* In the above video, he recounts about the Bard ability "Vicious Mockery", which can kill people with just insults, which was the M.O. for one of his characters.
245--> '''Spoony:''' It was his go-to power, was just he was insulting people like Creator/DonRickles.
246
247[[folder: Pathfinder Campaign]]
248!!Session 1:
249* The introduction of "[[TrrrillingRrrs Rrerrh]] the Ranger." Spoony feels the need to ask Coldguy if that's the necessary pronunciation.
250* The miscellaneous teases of Jinx, WebVideo/PushingUpRoses' gnome druid. Her lower intelligence stat results in many YouNoTakeCandle jokes.
251* "Then he dies."
252* Coldguy's dwarf making a BondOneLiner after ploughing through two bandits in two turns without armor.
253--> '''Rrerrh''': [[FunetikAksent Oih]], Tax season is [[ItMakesSenseInContext ovveR]].
254* At the beginning, they get their mission from the mayor and are cued to leave, there is a silence until [[WebVideo/MarzGurl Maleuseu]] says "I am no longer in that building" and asks if anyone will leave with her.
255
256!!Session 2:
257* It's revealed that WebVideo/PushingUpRoses opted out, Jinx leaving as a result with an in-story reason. The party jokes that "(Her) planet needs (her)!"
258* "[[PungeonMaster Liz]]... I swear to god, I will come over there."
259* Magnus tries to stabilize Gustav, but fails. Drama collapses as the death marker appears on the wrong party member.
260-->'''Sean Fausz:''' I'm not dead! Fuck you!
261* "Our old friends were too squishy. We need new friends."
262
263!!Session 3:
264* Early on, after mentioning that Marzgurl was absent again due to computer troubles, Spoony gets the idea to contact her by phone (by text or voice) to see if she can somehow participate. Numerous jokes stem from the concept.
265* [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment "We find the corpse of]] [[spoiler: Pinkie Pie.]]"
266* The entirety of the bandit camp, mainly due to the sound effects used including a perfectly timed [[StockScream Wilhelm scream]]
267
268!!Session 4:
269* After the party survives the second ambush of the day without a hitch, [[TemptingFate Spoony wonders out loud if he should start ramping up the difficulty.]]
270--> '''[[KillerGameMaster Spoony]]:''' [[CallBack Next time we're cracking out the Manure Golem.]]
