  [8:30 P.M.] gillen

  


  Hmmmm hello everybody

  This is ourrrrr second evening roundup of the next 150 days

  Five! days until eliminations start

  Everybody accounted for?

  [8:30 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Yes sir

  [8:30 P.M.] tyrell

  


  OH hi yes

  [8:30 P.M.] .Alex

  


  I do have notifications on

  [8:30 P.M.] gillen

  


  That’s four of us, where’s our good Thiago?

  [8:31 P.M.] ?????

  


  I’m here

  [8:31 P.M.] gillen

  


  Our favorite moody teenager

  So, to start our roundup fellas, what all really fucking annoyed us today?

  [8:30 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Hi gillen, not like I've been talking to you all day

  You know what really grinded my gears today? You, good sir, telling me every 15 minutes everything that happened in the Doc McStuffins episode you were watching for over 3 hours straight

  [8:31 P.M.] gillen

  


  I plea not guilty

  [8:32 P.M.] tyrell

  


  HUH? What were you watching Doc Mcstuffins for?

  [8:32 P.M.] gillen

  


  Erm uh eeeh

  Disney junior was doing a marathon and it was better than watching law and order

  No other reason

  [8:32 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Funniest shit that I've heard today

  You should have been updating me instead Gillen, I would have been interested

  [8:32 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  He only spammed me because he knew it would be annoying

  And I suspect he knew I would immediately bring this up right when he asked that question

  [8:33 P.M.] ?????

  


  Just this once I'll vouch for Gillen. Law and Order is a terrible and corrupt show

  [8:33 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Uh oh Law & Order has haters in chat

  [8:33 P.M.] ?????

  


  Law and order gives people the false impression that cops care about sexual assault, that investigators ever solve cases, and that state prosecutors represent or stand for anything other than money. Don't call me a "hater". That show is rotten to the core

  [8:34 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Ruh roh

  [8:34 P.M.] gillen

  


  The group chat when it gets political

  [8:34 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Well have you considered?

  [8:35 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Have you considered?

  [8:36 P.M.] ?????

  


  No. And I won't

  [8:36 P.M.] gillen

  


  Well that's one thing that's annoyed Thiago today

  Other than everything else in the world

  Any other wAcKy aNTiCs we've gotten into today? Specifically ones that made us bubble with anger?

  [8:37 P.M.] tyrell

  


  I'm not a very angry person, but you wanna know what really, REALLY got under my skin today?

  Noodles.

  Everywhere I looked today, I was seeing noodles. And I can't stand them

  [8:37 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  I thought noodles was code for something, but nope, you're actually just really anti-noodle

  [8:37 P.M.] .Alex

  


  NOODLES? You better have a damn good explanation Ty

  [8:38 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Just say the word. "Noodles." Say it over and over. It sounds so wrong. It makes my insides tingle in a very wrong way

  [8:38 P.M.] gillen

  


  Mmm noodles aren't the only thing that are gonna be tingling your insides boy

  [8:38 P.M.] .Alex

  


  EXCUSE ME?

  [8:38 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Uuuhhhhh

  [8:39 P.M.] gillen

  


  Continue

  [8:40 P.M.] tyrell

  


  It's just like, noodles are on my TV, noodles are in my cabinet, noodles are in my fridge, even one of the songs I have says the word "noodles" in it

  The noodles just won't LEAVE ME ALONE

  I don't like thinking about them, I don't like picturing them in my mouth, or in my hands, or anything

  They're like little gooey worms

  [8:40 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Please don't ruin my spaghetti for me I don't need this

  [8:41 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Hold on Boyd, maybe this guy's cooking

  [8:41 P.M.] gillen

  


  HA, not cooking spaghetti, I can tell you that. EYYYYY someone gimme a five

  [8:41 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Barnacles. That was a good one

  [8:42 P.M.] ?????

  


  Your stock of food is supposed to be tailored to you. Why do you noodles if you hate them

  HAVE* noodles.

  [8:42 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Wait, maybe he actually should cook noodles

  [8:42 P.M.] gillen

  


  Sounds like there’s a… conflict here.

  [8:43 P.M.] tyrell

  


  I’m not going to cook any of those noodles unless they’re the only food left and I’m about to starve to death

  [8:43 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Tyrell from two days ago would beg to differ, it seems

  [8:44 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Well what if I don’t believe Tyrell from two days ago?

  What if it was actually the game hosts who put the noodles in against my will to torment me?

  [8:44 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  I’m gonna out on a limb and say they didn’t do that

  [8:45 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Well how do YOU know, smart guy?

  [8:45 P.M.] ?????

  


  Everybody else’s food supply matches them. It’s not the game, it’s you

  [8:45 P.M.] gillen

  


  Damn that’s rough

  [8:45 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Boom Roasted

  [8:45 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Guys I swear it’s not me! I probably asked for them as a practical joke on myself or something

  [8:47 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Okay can I talk about something that totally DIDN’T annoy me today?

  [8:47 P.M.] gillen

  


  WE’RE NOT DONE WITH THE SEGMENT YET

  [8:47 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Well fine! I’ll talk about something that IS annoying me

  Cause know what’s really irking the fuck out of me is the TV channels

  Every single network I see and scroll through just has no personality whatsoever and does nothing but air reruns of the same show for hours

  [8:48 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Oh boy I know what you’re talking about

  [8:48 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Like how Gillen was watching Doc McStuffins for 3 hours until it presumably switched to Bluey

  Disney channel has just been murdered by Disney plus, like how every channel has been murdered by streaming

  [8:49 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  And we don’t even get streaming here dude!

  [8:49 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Like where’s my fucking Netflix bitch! I don’t want to watch a bunch of televangelists, football, or 30-minute commercials!

  [8:49 P.M.] ?????

  


  You don’t know how many people I would kill to have HBO streaming

  Whatever the fuck they call their app now

  [8:49 P.M.] tyrell

  


  That’s an enticing thought

  [8:50 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Dude I was watching SNL reruns from like four years ago this afternoon. Do you know how weird it is to watch political cold opens that are that outdated

  [8:50 P.M.] gillen

  


  SNL cold opens fucking suck

  [8:51 P.M.] ?????

  


  What annoyed me today? Thanks for asking

  [8:52 P.M.] gillen

  


  Everything annoys you Thiago

  [8:52 P.M.] ?????

  


  But I’ll tell what specifically annoyed me, since no one’s mentioned it

  That fucking TV alert about the crosswords.

  [8:52 P.M.] gillen

  


  That was definitely a spooky

  [8:52 P.M.] tyrell

  


  BRO THAT GOT ME SO BAD ??

  [8:52 P.M.] gillen

  


  Gave a real shiver in me timbers

  [8:53 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Am I really the only one who didn’t get scared by that alert

  Not even the morning alert yesterday announcing the game got me

  If anything, they’ve given me a jolt of excitement

  [8:53 P.M.] tyrell

  


  BRO HOW

  [8:53 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Nah, you’re a psychopath, Thiago is right. When you’ve gone a full day and half in peaceful quiet, thinking you know what the deal’s gonna be, only for another alert to pop up completely unexpected in the middle of the day when you're already comfortable, that's fucked

  That was engineered to be scary

  [8:54 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Well it didn't scare me

  I dunno what to tell you

  [8:55 P.M.] gillen

  


  I think your parents didn't love you

  [8:55 P.M.] .Alex

  


  ???!!!!!!

  [8:55 P.M.] gillen

  


  So what bothered me today

  The hot dogs I made for lunch were a overcooked

  That was pretty cringe

  The author's content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

  [8:56 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Devastating. I love hot dogs

  [8:56 P.M.] gillen

  


  No biggie. It made me cry for hours

  Well we’ve been talking about this for half an hour

  What day we turn the discussion to something a little more positive

  Alex? Now’s your chance, what was epic and cool today?

  [8:57 P.M.] .Alex

  


  O yeah.

  Let me tell you about this band called the Yeah Yeah Yeahs that the game blessed me an album from

  "It's Blitz!" is the album. And it's a fucking masterpiece like nothing else out there

  If any of you are fans of synth rock, boy oh boy do I gotta treat for you

  [8:57 P.M.] gillen

  


  Hm. How do you know if it's a masterpiece like nothing else if all our memories of music are gone

  [8:57 P.M.] tyrell

  


  I think we just don't remember opinions, but I think we still have all our knowledge of music

  But I'm amenable to synth-rock, you may have found yourself a curious ear

  [8:57 P.M.] ?????

  


  Is this some type of 80s shit?

  [8:58 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Nah. Nah this is modern shit.

  The 80's wish they were this good

  It's like one side of the album is some of the best party anthems ever created that make you feel like you're rocking out in a music video, and then there's a side that's more mellow and super vibey and just so fucking good. SO fucking good. I believe with all my heart that Hysteric might be the best production of all time

  [8:59 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Oooh what's it about?

  [9:00 P.M.] .Alex

  


  About? Wrong question. Yeah Yeah Yeahs doesn't really write songs to have specific meaning, it's more to give you feeling. If you're trying to dig into any of their songs from the lyrics, you're very much listening to it wrong. You listen to Yeah Yeah Yeahs for the lyrics like you watch porn for the plot and character development

  [9:00 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  "I believe with all my heart" and "it MIGHT be the best song ever"

  [9:00 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Respectfully, kill yourself

  [9:01 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Well I would say you've sold me, but I'm afraid I'm stuck with the albums that I was given

  [9:01 P.M.] gillen

  


  Can't you request it?

  [9:01 P.M.] tyrell

  


  OH

  Man, so many things to request tonight…

  [9:02 P.M.] gillen

  


  Is the daily crosswords one of them? You seem like the "type"

  [9:02 P.M.] tyrell

  


  As a matter of fact…

  Rubbing my hands together deviously

  [9:03 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Wait, if we can request albums

  You know that I'm clutching all the other Yeah Yeah Yeahs albums

  I want their whole fucking catalogue in my mouth

  [9:03 P.M.] gillen

  


  You shouldn't put CDs there

  In case you didn't know

  [9:03 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Thanks

  [9:04 P.M.] gillen

  


  Mr David Stone, sir David Stone, what did you find really cool today? Or just positive at all

  [9:04 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Hm

  Today was a little boring overall

  But I did whip some banger fucking chocolate croissants for dessert earlier while we were talking

  [9:04 P.M.] tyrell

  


  CHOCOLATE CROISSANTS?

  [9:04 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Yes?

  [9:05 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Hold on, so like you dipped actual croissants in chocolate and ate them? Or is it just like, chocolate shaped like croissants? Please tell me it's that one

  [9:05 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  The chocolates inside the croissant

  Have you never eaten bread with chocolate before

  [9:05 P.M.] tyrell

  


  NO?

  Wait a minute I'm thinking about what this actually looks like now and that sounds delicious.

  [9:06 P.M.] ?????

  


  Did you forget what croissants are

  [9:06 P.M.] tyrell

  


  I don't know what I was thinking now! But I want chocolate croissants now

  Wait, CAN I REQUEST THOSE TOO? Oh my god I'm learning so many things today

  So many doors have opened to me today

  [9:06 P.M.] gillen

  


  Tyrell is having a moment

  Need we even ask what you found cool today?

  [9:07 P.M.] tyrell

  


  I found basically everything cool today, I couldn't possibly list it all

  Unless you want me to ramble for 2 hours

  [9:07 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  I'm not staying awake past 10

  [9:08 P.M.] gillen

  


  Well then, what about Thiago? Does anything fill you with ecstasy these days?

  [9:08 P.M.] ?????

  


  My music is pretty cool I guess

  [9:08 P.M.] gillen

  


  Epic AND based

  [9:09 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Oo what kind of music do you like?

  [9:09 P.M.] ?????

  


  It’s mostly punk rock

  [9:10 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Ah, I know a thing or too about that. What kind?

  [9:10 P.M.] ?????

  


  The kind that’s too much for your vanilla ass

  [9:11 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Shots fired

  [9:12 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  I took you as more a heavy metal woman Thiago, I’m suprised

  [9:12 P.M.] ?????

  


  Heavy metal is noisy trash that means nothing and stands for nothing

  [9:12 P.M.] gillen

  


  Some would say the same about punk rock…

  [9:13 P.M.] ?????

  


  Well they’re wrong. Not even close

  [9:13 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Whatever you say

  [9:13 P.M.] gillen

  


  Well at least you like something

  Now what did I like today?

  Hm

  [9:15 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  He's thinking

  [9:15 P.M.] gillen

  


  Correct

  I agree with David, the second day was a little boring

  But I did watch some Mythbusters in the morning. Cool stuff

  Then they started playing some other shit that wasn't interesting

  Alex was definitely right that every TV channel is only reruns of the same show for 6 hours

  [9:16 P.M.] tyrell

  


  How charming

  I wanna see when their airing reruns of that show again, I might sneak a peak

  What channel is that on

  [9:16 P.M.] gillen

  


  Discovery. It's up in the top 30 channels

  [9:16 P.M.] tyrell

  


  K, looking now…

  Aw damn I've scrolled like five days ahead and it's not airing at all

  [9:17 P.M.] gillen

  


  Shame

  If only we had STREAMING

  [9:17 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Well, I'm sure there's other stuff around

  [9:18 P.M.] gillen

  


  So

  One more prompt for our evening roundup, something I thought of earlier

  What are our plans for the coming days of the game?

  Things we're looking forward to and such

  [9:18 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Oo I've got PLENTY to look forward to if everything on my request note is any indication…

  [9:19 P.M.] .Alex

  


  I don't know about you but my gut feeling tells me we're getting another big announcement tomorrow. I'm looking forward to that

  They wasted no time hitting us with crosswords, there's gotta be other stuff coming at least over the next week before they start eliminating people

  [9:19 P.M.] gillen

  


  HEY we're taking TURNS

  Alex's thing is more interesting so you go first

  [9:19 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Wah?? Unfair

  [9:19 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Someone I talked to today mentioned video games, and it quite shocked me how they didn't even leave us with a playstation or something to pass the time with

  [9:20 P.M.] gillen

  


  We're still in the socializing stage of the game, I don't think we need video games just yet

  [9:20 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  You just talked about how boring your day was

  I don't think a game system would hurt, especially not if we have multiplayer stuff

  [9:20 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Dude bro my man if they gave me one of those classic Wiis with all the nintendo exclusives, I would get so down on that

  [9:20 P.M.] ?????

  


  I would kill for a Mario Galaxy 2

  [9:21 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  That's 2 things now you said you would kill for

  [9:21 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Top Thiago priorities: watch HBO, play Mario Galaxy 2, listen to punk music, kill people, eat hot chip and lie

  [9:21 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Honestly? Same.

  [9:22 P.M.] gillen

  


  It seems I have been outvoted

  Well let's see what happens then

  What are you looking forward to Thiago? I'm curious what your plan are

  [9:22 P.M.] ?????

  


  I'm not planning ahead much in this game, I know I'm not making it to the finale

  But while I'm here I'm thinking I can try learning to play guitar. If I'm allowed to request one

  [9:23 P.M.] .Alex

  


  A shining beacon of optimism as always

  [9:23 P.M.] tyrell

  


  OOOO well that's so convenient, because it also happens that I'm thinking about learning guitar

  Or maybe keyboard, I haven't decided yet

  And if you're curious Miss Thiago, I also had the idea of starting a band with my fellow musically inclined players…

  I call it… the Runk Pockers.

  [9:24 P.M.] "David Stone"

  You. What

  


  My guy, starting a band when we can only commune over text is hard enough. But Runk Pockers is an absolutely off the fucking wall band name

  [9:24 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Uuuuh, thanks? I think?

  [9:24 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Holy shit that's actually the funniest thing I think I've ever heard

  If we can get Runk Pockers up on stage with the Butthole Surfers, we're so golden

  I'm gonna be laughing at that for at least another hour jesus christ

  [9:25 P.M.] tyrell

  


  …Thsnks!

  [9:25 P.M.] ?????

  


  There are a hundred reasons why I would never join that band

  Not the least of which is because that's the least punk band name literally ever

  [9:26 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Well maybe the Runk Pockers is just too good for you

  We'll make it one day, and you'll regret never joining when you had the chance forever

  Like when Will Smith turned down The Matrix

  [9:26 P.M.] .Alex

  


  THE RUNK POCKEEEEEERRRS

  AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA

  If I learn how to play bass or something can I join that band

  With that fucking trombone slide of a name

  [9:26 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Absolutely! The Rock Pockers would love a bassist!

  Recruitment number 1, let's GO!

  [9:27 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Ooooh my god that's so funny. Fuck me fuck me

  [9:27 P.M.] gillen

  


  No

  So how about you David?

  [9:27 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  My plans over the next few days involve baking a lot huge batches of the finest desserts I can so I can shovel them into my face whenever I want

  I don't plan on leaving this game until I have full on diabetes

  [9:28 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Sounds unhealthy. Where do I sign up for delivery

  [9:28 P.M.] tyrell

  


  You should ask for a recipe book

  Unless you already know everything

  Hang on if I request one of YOUR chocolate croissants, will I get it?...

  [9:28 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  You'd better not find out

  I ain't sharing

  [9:28 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Rats. Why did they only give us pens to write with?

  [9:29 P.M.] gillen

  


  The game hates you specifically

  [9:29 P.M.] tyrell

  


  ??

  [9:29 P.M.] gillen

  


  Well I think Tyrell has already told us plenty about what his plans are

  But guess what I'm planning to do

  [9:29 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Uh, burning more hot dogs?

  [9:30 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  Bombarding me with more messages about Disney Junior?

  [9:30 P.M.] gillen

  


  Mr. David Stone you know that's just my daily routine

  No. What I'm planning to do is WIN THIS GAME MOTHERFUCEKR

  Unlike Thiago

  [9:30 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  We both know you're gonna fizzle out by the end of the first month

  You're gonna go out in a straitjacket kicking and screaming

  [9:31 P.M.] gillen

  


  Am not

  [9:31 P.M.] tyrell

  


  How inspiring

  [9:31 P.M.] ?????

  


  Godspeed

  [9:31 P.M.] gillen

  


  I'm gonna out victoriously cracking open a beer bottle with a gold medal around my neck

  That has to be the reward at the end, right? I'd be fine with that

  [9:32 P.M.] .Alex

  


  I think all of us are going to be carried out of this game in strait jackets

  I'm on team Thiago here, I'm not making it for shit

  [9:32 P.M.] gillen

  


  Exactly how I'm gonna win bitch

  [9:32 P.M.] tyrell

  


  I'm on Team Gillen, I think he's going to win too

  [9:32 P.M.] gillen

  


  Exactly right

  Thiago you've been quiet for most of this, what have you been up to?

  [9:33 P.M.] ?????

  


  Reading

  Did you people forget you have books

  [9:34 P.M.] gillen

  


  Quite literally yes

  [9:34 P.M.] tyrell

  


  Aw crap, I started reading this cool thing yesterday and totally forgot to continue it today

  [9:35 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  I have a history book about tanks from WWII, should I be concerned

  [9:35 P.M.] .Alex

  


  An entire book just about tanks? Yeah I think you're cooked

  [9:37 P.M.] gillen

  


  Well it's been a fun hour

  I think I've had enough texting for one day

  [9:37 P.M.] "David Stone"

  


  I am on a fast track to developing carpal tunnel

  [9:37 P.M.] gillen

  


  Me and David are probably going to bed

  Good luck to all, we will check in..... tomorrow

  [9:37 P.M.] .Alex

  


  Goodnight losers. I'm staying way up

  [9:38 P.M.] tyrell

  


  I think I'll dip soon as well, gotta be fresh and awake for all the stuff I'm getting delivered tomorrow

  [9:38 P.M.] ?????

  


  Night
