Talkradar/Funny: Difference between revisions

* Arguably the first Crowning Moment of Funny on [[Talkradar]] was [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbKJYeVU8u8 the initial appearance of Duke Lombardi, in episode 15.] A man who exclusively reviews E for Everyone rated video games, using a complex hat-based rating system (they're really nice hats), while [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fo6aKnRnBxM&ob=av3n Baker Street] plays soothingly in the background, was a stroke of genius. While later appearances varied in the laugh-factor, the first visit will always be a piece of [[Talkradar]] history.

'''Mikel''': "Yeah...that's seems about accurate."<br />

'''Duke''': "You in particular Mister Olston, seem to love the Ahnimul Crossin."<br />

'''Duke''': Oh excuse me...dab dab...dab dab dab...it's then left to finely age in a mass grave, until such a time as an ancient and powerful moomy, that's mummy, is attracted to its dark aura. Then you pick apples! Or pull up beets, it's up to you. This is a wonderful game for children and the emotionally distraught, alike, I give it 8 outta 5 hats!" }}

 

'''Duke''': DR. GIRLFRIEND?! Well, I'm fuckin offended. [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|Wish I had a zipper sound effect,]] lemme take this out right now...<br />

(sound effect of shattering glass)<br />

* While Duke was the first and quite hilarious, he was but a warm-up act for [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvgjpU-YVPA the Norwegian King of Names,] first appearing in episode 49. Inspired by a [http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/26/norwegian-king-refused-childs-sonic-x-name-change-request/ real life story] of a Norwegian child's requested name change (to Sonic X), which was denied by the king himself. The King of Names, in the voice of James Mason from [[Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea]], has the power to change the names or deny the changing of names to any person, place or thing. A relatively simple concept, but it brought both the hosts and the listeners, to tears.

 

'''Shane''': "...[[Kingdom Hearts II|Roxas."]]<br />

'''King''': "Roxas...The King..."<br />

'''King''': "That is the absolute...best name this king has ever heard! You...are now Liu Kang Reparaz!" }}

 

'''Brett''': (everyone laughing) "Ok...please...my fucking face hurts..."
