It's a parody of Mrs. Robinson - Simon and Garfunkel.

This was a great podcast. I've been hoping for another 'recap' episode for a while. And the "Princess Bride is a chick flick" bit was awesome! I didn't hear this before since Episodes 8 & 9 are broken on iTunes....

You know what, I really hope Mr. Thompson does sue/attack us.

By the way. Did anyone even buy Manhunt 2? I mean him and the media are saying "OH look what kids are playing" and we're like "Manhunt 2, Meh."

Yo Lono.

You said there was trouble with this no-Grammar Blogger right? Involving Halo Jesus and being flamed for it. Is this blogger guy known as Tapio? I got into an argument on Uncle Gamer with a No-Grammar blogger by that name over Halo Jesus.

great parody doc, and lono, great job manhandling the podcast.

Who knows... they all seem to be the same person. 15 years old or probably 35 yrs old and screechy, dumb, blind, deaf, I could go on about their shortage of chromosomes, but I won't. It's too much of a waste of my time.

The parody was good. I got a good laugh out of the chorus especially.

But I still can't help but laugh at hearing that Lono promo again. That's got to be my favorite SG moment ever at this point.

New song was class, doc, you trying to get yourself a record label??

Best of podcasts was a class idea, but for those who have not heard the old greats, go download them, NOW!!

Lono, good job on pulling it all together on your own, hope the guys cut you some slack on the next one, but i highly doubt that.

i cant believe theres already a "best of" podcast...

Did you guys go on strike with all the Hollywood writers?? lol... just kidding, but, no seriously, did you??

The parody song was good... i "giggled" a little, but i was waiting for the great "SCREW YOU" payoff... The other parodies definitely blew this one away...

I think the best part of the song was the "Janet Reno looks like Lurch" part... But meh, needed that official, "WE'RE SARCASTIC GAMER NOW GO SUCK IT" feel that all the other parodies had... Definitely should call a Mulligan on this one..

Now im going to have to cross the street and not go with traffic... or is it go with traffic and not cross the street... I'll figure it out... Good luck with the writer's strike...

Hey great show, I'm always bummed out to hear that its a recap show, but then I'm laughing at everything I've laughed at before, so thanks! Also I just wanted to point out if you guys haven't noticed, you guys are on the front page of "What's Hot" on the Podcast section of iTunes! And not only the front page, you are on the little tab before you even get to the front page of podcasts! Great job guys, and great job everyone for giving iTunes feedback who did!

You're continued support really means a lot. Even ala douche's support...

I was really bored today, so I wrote down the lyrics of the song. It's probably flawed here and there ( 'sueing a corp for being fizzy', that one is wrong, but I have no idea what it should say otherwise :p ), so please correct me if I'm wrong.

Great song, congratz :D.

EDIT: sueing a corp for being fizzy -> suing Coke for being fizzy
sueing -> suing :p
How 'bout you let me decide which games my kids should beat tonight -> How 'bout you let me decide which games my kids should be denied

Hey Mr Thompson
What's it like to be demented?
Suing folks like Rockstar Games with claims that you've invented
Yes, it's true
Even went after Kotaku
Those guys pwned you

Hey Mr Thompson
What kind of lawyer are you?
Ever wonder why so many states want to dispar you?
Such an ace
Dude, have you ever won a case?
What a disgrace

Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you're suing me
Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you're suing me
Now you're suing me

Hey Mr Thompson
It looks like you've been busy
Sending porn to judges, suing Coke for being fizzy
Why stop there?
Go get whoever does your hair
It's a solar flare

Hey Mr Thompson
You really raised a racket
When you sued Janet Reno 'cause she touched you on your jacket
Must've hurt
Touched by a girl who looks like Lurch
A real red alert

Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you're suing me
Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you're suing me

You say you do it for the kids
But can you name a thing you did that didn't fail and go right down in flames?
How 'bout you let me decide which games my kids should be denied
and you go sue the parents, not the games
'Cause every time you sue Rockstar, and act so righteous end bizarre
They sell a million copies of the game
And you're to blame

Hey Mr Thompson
That sound you hear is laughter
from every single company that you've ever gone after
Now we'll see
How long it takes 'till you sue me

Hey Mr Thompson
It's free speech
You Mr Thompson don't scare me
You don't scare me

Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you're suing me
Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you're sueing me
Now you're suing me

ah all Jack Thompson wants is already reality here in Germany.
I mean. We can't buy adult games. Gears of War and Crackdown are completely banned!!! And those which aren't banned are censored. For example GTA or Call of Duty. That sucks.
Cos of that I got to but the UK or Ausria Versions of the Games. :mad:

We're trying, but the horse is out of the barn already. One guy makes a video and people jump on it. The problem is that we don't get any of the site traffic that we intended when we made it, so while the guy maybe a genuine fan, he's really hurting us where it counts.

Aww come on, I'm sure they would have recorded a whole new episode if they could. And despite not being able to, they still put some content together, especially to newer suscribers who might not have had the opportunity to listen to some of the best moments from the previous 7 episodes.

I think that it was a really good attempt by Lono to host the entire show on his own too, even though he should've had his own Martini time.

I mean I have "hey there Mr. Thompson!" stuck in my head in fact im listening to the podcast right now! but when I started listening to the Ps3 one when it was cut off by still alive I was annoyed so I was "ARRGGGHHHH GOD is it going to be in the next Podcast? maybe it isnt? uhhhh" and coz it wasnt I was wondering if it was still going to be put on another Podcast? soooooooooo......... is it?

I just read about what this guy has done... It's just incredibly sad with the amount of c**p that this guy has made up. He went after Take-Two and Rockstar? He even tried to sue Wal-Mart with them for selling a kid GTA because the kid killed someone and he was a big fan of the game... This guy should go on the moment of truth because then he can start telling the truth about what he really thinks. He's all in it for the money.
