Grrr this is still super frustrating.

are they doing real news and putting a fake twist on it ala Saturday Night Live or just pure fake stories (of course i can tell the ones which are TRULY fake)

Still love it though
The feature story is always a fake kinda-made-up one, or an interview. The news desk stories are ALL real, but made fun of mercilessly with jokes.

Kathleen is quite dreamy when finding others dreamy.
I didn't get the cut joke, guessing it's some lyrics I haven't heard.

As for the book, it might make me actually play a text adventure game as I haven't played any fictional ones for quite awhile.

Wait, was that last line a Parappa the Rappa reference?

My respect for you just skyrocketed.

ENN is always a must watch for me, and the "Square-One" joke at the end had me laughing for minutes!

He hee. Enjoyed the new 'swooning' Kathleen in this one, and the interview was actually really well worked I thought. (Didn't rely too much on the videogame-text adventure thing it started with.)

Ah ENN, you eat up my Wednesdays so frequently.

It is comedy based on real news.

I actually have one of those. :D

Yes, I'm a human magpie, I admit it. And I would *totally* rock some Kojammies.

Haha, that is a very nice hat indeed. And I also rather enjoyed the explanation of how Yahtzee's book ties into his ZP work because "it does have punctuation and also some zeroes".
