Video Death Loop

You’re working for the Middle State Anime Convention Trading Company. You got a fresh supply of Love Hina‘s taken from Minnesota you’re sending downstream to St. Louis and you get a 10% bonus if it’s out before the imports start making their way to the dockside dealer halls. Life is hard, but it has its ups and down. For every Mazinger there’s a Chargeman Ken, as they say in the industry. Oh so you think they might say. You haven’t stepped off the boat in 20 years. You adjust your reading glasses to read the yellow text at the bottom of the screen. You hope Keitaro chooses Konno. This is the life you lead and you let noone tell you otherwise.

John Hurst is your host today and he’s not going to relive his AMV-making past. Aaron Littleton is your co-host and he’s just an ooolllllllld captain on the river just a-rolling.

It’s the post Thanksgiving gathering with your friends from high school. You’re tired of the family that made you leave the town so it’s time to leave them again and see the real reason why you return. That gang’s all here. You smile and grab a Brand Beer from the Brand Cooler. Life is good. Rock Band is setup but no one is playing. The song on the screen is a 30 second loop of “Maps”.

“Hey, how come no one is playing?” you ask?

“It’s because we’ll have to unlock all the songs again.” one replies, looking for a discarded red solo cup that definitely wasn’t theirs earlier in the night.

“Well, we can do that! Come on, everyone!” you reply, crushing the can with one hand and walking towards the microphone. No one moves. “Oh come on, it’ll be fun!” you try to convince them. They are unmoved, far more interested in what appeared to be a rudimentary game of beer pong from other discarded red cups.

“Well, fine, I can do this myself!” you say, grabbing both guitars. You’re going to be the star of the night for this. It’s time to enact the plan. You just know the drumsticks go last.

Did you know that Staples has a new logo? Like, three years ago? You didn’t. Don’t lie. I didn’t. I driven by a staples every day this entire time and haven’t noticed it. Because it’s a Staples. But these people did. And clapped. Probably because it’s their job. Probably because they’re fans. We may never know. We just know it’s a great place to buy average pens. But what if we need to go… Deeper?

Blow the foghorn, the meat bicycle is here! The Claymore Man comes a-wieldin and to that we’ll have a good eatin’! You can make your own or wait for him to come swinging! Either way, it is a delight and horror to children at the same time and that’s all we really want out of these sort of things. Carols? Gifts? Folklore? Nah. Just a guy with a bunch of meat and potentially a heaping amount of lawsuits. Come over here, you enemy of the health inspector you!

Aaron Littleton is your host and he is celebrating a ancient new tradition in the Video Death Loop household! John Hurst is your co-host and he’s using the meat bicycle for primarily decoy-related purposes.

Ah, yes. BloodRayne! The franchise that, much like a vampire, refuses to die. Every once in a while a new game comes out. And it’s alright! Enough to enjoy over a weekend of nothing else to do. But that’s it. Like a vampire, you forget they’re there until it’s too late. Then bam! Another game for you! Or, if you were watching MTV2, maybe a semblance of a music video. We hear that’s all the rage now. Video games *and* music? Now that’s madness. True madness.

John Hurst is your host this week and he’s not sure if he is at a vampire buffet. Aaron Littleton is your co-host and he is not going to listen to the nurse in this instance.

Ain’t no better way to kill off your fast food mascot than to leave him eventually discarded by the side of the road. All the mitt wanted was a lite bit of fun! The wind had other plans! He is no longer within the warm embrace of Arby’s, who would later have the meats. But not an over mitt. Never again. Never again until nostalgia takes hold once more.

We have got to get Aaron off of Oven Mitt content. I’m terrified.

Atlantis! City Underwater! Source of Legends! Games you played on every system from the Atari 2600 to…. Whatever PS5 game is involving it right now. Maybe a Last of Us. Heck if I know. But it’s there and we seek to prove it! … By getting distracted by philosophers philosophizing and robes. We’ll solve the mystery. Eventually. We just need to get a little comfy.

Gosh, things are just… TOO. DARN. HOT. I can’t grab all these hot things! Good thing I have the new Hot Hands glove(s) to stop my hands from becoming hot! I no longer need to worry. The power of heat will never touch my cold, blood-filled hands ever again. We will be safe and protected in our new, silicone vessel that gives us life as well as keeps us cool. We are the new Gods. The Hot Hands will take out hands and lead the way. This is Childhood’s End. Here’s your Hot Hands.

Soothing music time approaches. It means you’re about to play a game. A Genshin game, maybe. You feel at peace with the world. All is well. The bridge is being made as you walk towards your 10-pull of anime husbandos and waifus. But a thought crosses your mind: Where is Boston, really? Is it like… North? North-ish? Somewhere up there. You think about how you used to do real well at geography. You could beat Mario is Missing like a speedrunner. You got, like, third at that elementary school Geography Bee, man! Where did it go wrong? Was it the Sunsphere? I bet it was the Sunsphere. Obsessed with it, you are. Always hanging out on the edge of your peripheral. Waiting. Firing. No. Wait. Is it firing? Is the Sunsphere Weaponized? Screw this. I’m going back to Chipotle.
