Zero Punctuation: April Fools

[Roseveare]

(chuckles) Its amusing how you guys dont get how he's fucking with us.

He read an extract from the "Ode To Melancholy", a distinctly depressing choice on the assumption that his loyal yet brainless fanbase would all watch it with bated breath waiting for some Yahtzee brand venomous hilarity on April Fools.

You got us good, Yahtzee, you twanker

By the way, it's 'Ode On Melancholy', maybe next time you can stop sucking up long enough to get your facts right.

 

[Saerain]

Hah, ya'll are so thick. Joke has been stated repeatedly. He's actually punctuating.

There's nothing punctuationless about Zero Punctuation in the first place. That would be incomprehensible. It's just fast-paced.

 

[Roseveare]

Irony. Irony is all there is to it. Now stop your ludicrous speculation and sleep peacefully in the knowledge that you are all inferior beings in comparison to me.

So I guess it is true, Americans don't understand irony.

 

[Alphakirby]

I think his previous April Fools joke was better...lol duke nukem forever

 

[kidigus]

Gawd, i've never heard him speaking sooo sssllloooowwwwwwllllyyyy beeeeefffffffffoooooooooorrrrrrre

 

[SyphonX]

It's just supposed to be a little absurd, and entirely underwhelming in comparison to his other videos. This is intentional. April Fools doesn't mean "funny joke", it just means something strange or peculiar to make you feel strange or confused, i.e. a false news report, or the opposite of what Yahtzee usually does.

I thought it was great.

The rest of you need to have some chocolate or something and lighten the fuck up.

Where was it hidden? i had no idea

wait what? where was this hidden? haha

Part-way through an episode of Game Dogs

Those clever bastards! They hid it in the one place they knew we wouldn't look!

 

[De Ronneman]

A lot of people didn't find this Clip hidden in some of the other Escapist Videos, which kinda means there are some who don't watch the other vids.

I watched this placed in the middle of Game Dogs, which was hysterical given the timing where he just cuts the episode and reads some annoying novel.

Did it only happen on the 1st of april, no other days? I watched GameDogs 2nd of april...

 

[Minbad]

Now that was the most beautiful April fool joke I have ever seen!

 

[Furrama]

I liked it. It was quite unexpected, (especially during Game Dogs). First I was shocked that Yahtzee was there, then that he was reading SLOW, and then slowly realizing that he was reading erotica. It was fun

 

[Tyrannowalefish_Rex]

So cool! Has anyone typed it into Google to say what it's from? Not a recent game, I suppose. loool
Edit: Ode On Melancholy, got it.

 

[Lord Doom]

What the hell......................................................................................................

Also, Yahtzee, why would you hide it in an episode of game dogs? The announcement ad for it sucked so bad, I refuse to watch the show. Why would you risk association with that show?

 

[Aga Aquino]

I think so, no one seems to have found that clip after April 1. And why doesn't anybody watch Game Dogs? Its a fairly decent show.

 

[The Ultimate 2]

Huh??? what the hell was that?

 

[Venatio]

???

 

[hotacidbath]

Where was it hidden? i had no idea

wait what? where was this hidden? haha

Part-way through an episode of Game Dogs

That would probably explain why no one found it.

I don't care if I'm a few days late and you've already been well-quoted because, damn it, I laughed.

 

[Justin1221]

I still don't get it.

Ok, so the joke is either that Yahtzee is reading a book and talking slowly and pausing, a inside joke from a episdoe of game dogs which I don't watch, or it's both. What is it?

 

[tjb32995]

um wtf, erotic novel read by yahtzee

 

[Schlagwerk]

I was expecting that to be a screamer.

 

[WorldCritic]

I kinda just sat there wondering what was going on.
