Hey, we all just had our holidays! Ours were nice. What were things like for you? Happy Christmas, New Year, and… Valentine’s Day? There’s been a lot of momentous days lately.
Lee is going to build an enormous Mecha-Teddy Bear and will soon be terrorizing some large city in the U.S. Probably New York. She’s going to become a fluffier, mechanized version of Godzilla, and Sean is here for it. Well, so long as she doesn’t try to become a baby Godzilla. Those things are too scary.
A giant teddy bear, mecha or otherwise, is a whole lot easier to procure than a working time machine. Sean can back up that assertion. He’s got a good handle on the physics and math that a time machine utilizes, but who’s got the time to make one? And in this economy?
The major topic at hand today is the sunk cost fallacy. What is it? How has it affected our lives? The pair are feeling mired in a muck of sunk cost fallacy over having to watch The Stand. They did it to themselves, though, and they’re going to see it through to the end.
In what was streamed this time, things are reaching a tipping point out in New Vegas. Our dear compatriots, Glen, Larry, and Ray, have been captured and imprisoned by the terrible citizens of that wretched place. The veil is slowly being lifted from Flagg and his evil influence. A big, ol’ sphere of vengeful lightning makes an appearance, and there’s a big KABOOM on the way. Oh, there’s also some stuff happening in Boulder.
