Episode 280 - Tokyo Joycon Drift

from Here's What I Don't Get · host Here's What I Don't Get

This Summer, HWIDG Studios and the producers that brought you the Fast and Furious Saga of films bring you the next pivotal entry in the story all about family. They've been in the streets and all over the world. They've been to the sea, and the sky, and even space. So where is Dom and the family going next? Mushroom Kingdom. The Fast and the Furious Presents: Kart Wars. When Dom can't find a babysitter for date night, he turns to the last man he can: Mario! Dropped into the world of Nintendo, Dom and family must do the one thing they know to defeat Bowser: race. But this isn't any normal race. No NOS here, just bananas and shells! World's collide this summer in Kart Wars!- Regionalisms- Corporate Greed for The Little Things- Squandering Opportunities- Halo TV ShowIt's the little things in life that matter. It's the weird idiosyncrasies that make us who we are. But your little things in the town over are weird and your weird idiosyncrasies are disgusting and you should choke on them. Wether it's serving cheese water with chips and salsa, or putting marshmallow fluff on your burgers, it's different and I DON'T LIKE THAT.Companies are not poor people. They pay taxes like they are, and take all the handouts they can get, but poor they are not. So, they should be able to foot the bill for the little expenses. But some don't. They want to keep every nickel and dime when a dollar would make everyone happy, and they have a billion of those in the bank right now. Imagine the best quarterback in the NFL. Not the best so far, but the peak specimen. I'm a perfect robot body. He sets a Hail Mary pass under pressure, it takes off in a perfect spiral towards the end zone, and the receiver, setup for the perfect pass, no one around him, drops trou and pisses in his mouth as the ball flies into his head and kills him. That guy would go down as the worst player ever. He squandered the perfect opportunity.If you were a TV executive and you got the new, hottest franchise dropped into your lap, and the budget to match, would you A:) hire people that know or are willing to learn about said franchise in order to best represent it, or B:) replace all the existing intricate lore, leaving it a shell of its former self, pissing off all the fans, and making an uninteresting genre work based on cliche for people that don't even like said genre? The answer is always B apparently.All this and more on this week's fast and furious episode! Don't forget to join us on DISCORD, support us on PATREON or by BUYING A SHIRT.
