Um, Actually on the megaman question "more than 5 have weaknesses" is correct. Every boss is weak to one of the others and you can technically start with any of them. Cut->Elec->Ice->Fire->Bomb->Guts->Cut->(and so on) A few years(?) late by now but she should have gotten the point for that.
Cut Man also takes the most damage from the default Mega Buster, so arguably he's the best one to start with. The problem though is that in order to acquire the Magnet Beam on Elec Man's stage, you need Guts Man's ability (or Elec Man's ability), so if you don't want to go through that stage twice, you shouldn't start with Cut Man or Elec Man. The world record speedrun still starts on Cut Man though, and uses a glitch to warp through a wall to acquire the magnet beam. The glitchless world record starts on Guts Man.
Um, Actually Obi Wan wasn’t the FIRST one to kill a Sith Lord. When he cuts Maul in half, Mail doesn’t die. It isn’t until AFTER Anakin kills Count Dooku (Maul’s successor) that Obi Wan finally kills Maul. So Anakin is the first to kill a Sith Lord.

Um Actually, Homestar DID answer an email but you're forgetting the episode where The Cheat made his own animated Strong Bad Email, entitled "mile" which was not a fan submission (this information is on the DVD commentary and available in the FAQ section of the website). ALSO, Homestar Runner began with a kids book in 1996, The Homestar Runner Enters the Strongest Man in the World Contest, so while the cartoons began in 2000, Homestar Runner did not. And technically, Homestar Runner isn't a series of web cartoons. He's just a terrific athlete.
Um, actually it's inaccurate to say that only five out of the six robot masters have weaknesses to other robot master weapons. Bomb Man is, in fact, weak to Fire Man's Fire Storm, it's just that in any given playthrough of Mega Man there is one Robot Master that has to be fought first and therefore can't exploit their weakness.
The horse-headed alien is called a Thakwaash, and his name is Hohass Ekwesh aka Runt (he's one of the only of his kind able to fit in a cockpit) and they actually have multiple mental personalities - warrior, pilot, etc. He flew with Wraith Squadron in the Rogue Squadron book series!
First time watching this early, I just got to watch the series recently now it's my favorite pastime with my dad who is the most pedantic person I know. love y'all!

Um actually, Barrett does have a chainsaw arm. It's one of the weapons he can equip so Ryanni actually should have gotten five on that board. Just so happens that two of those were things that could have been for Barrett.
@@damien4197 In all fairness, I utterly boycotted WoW for murdering my favorite RTS series, and also recognize that I would have utterly become addicted to it had I not.
Um Actually, Bombman is weak to Fireman, making Ryanni correct and also making many other starting points perfectly viable. I know this was made ages ago, but still.
Um actually, Marcus “Needles” Kane is also referred to simply as Sweet Tooth in crossover media like PlayStation all-stars. So while it may originally be the name of the car, SONY has retroactively also made it an alternative name for the character as well.
I could have sworn that the timeframe for Demolition Man had already passed... I guess Taco Bell and Schwarzenegger still have a decade to get their shit together.
Um Actually TF2 could have been acronymed to both "Team Fortress 2" and "Titanfall 2," both of which have communities that use TF2 as an acronym, confusingly.
Um actually, I have literally never heard anyone call Titanfall 2 "TF2". It is clearly understood what you mean when you say "TF2". That would be like talking about how much you love FF3 and it turns out you meant Fatal Frame 3. You're full of shit.
Um, actually, She-Ra has a telepathic connection with Swift Wind and could call him over whenever she is in need, or "summon him" using magic. I assume that the question meant summon as to bring into existence, but it was oddly worded.
Um actually, did she do that in the Netflix show? I don't recall seeing that. She-Ra could do it in the original (better) series, but he specifically said the question was about "She-Ra and the Princesses of Power" therefore the (good but not better) Netflix show.
@@RJPolito I haven't seen the original show but in the new one they explicitly mention having a sacred bond, Swift Wind senses when she's in trouble and takes Bow and Glimmer to her, and he senses when they're on their way back from space
@@mrroboshadow Ok then. To be honest I haven't finished watching the full series. I'm a big fan of the original He-Man and She-Ra shows as well as the 2002 series, but this new one didn't feel like She-Ra to me. Not saying it was bad, the story's interesting and the characters are good, but at the same time they just feel like completely different characters not She-Ra and company.
Um, actually...you're probably correct with the order of robot masters, however having completed the game for the first time recently, I'd just like to say that cut man is a way easier first boss than Bomb Man and he seems weaker to Mega Man's blaster than the rest.
The "correct" order works pretty well, but I like starting Gutsman first because I'm not a big fan of Bombman's weapon. If you start Cutman 1st and follow the order, then you can't remove the section of the wall in Elecman's stage to get the M-platform, which forces you to redo it. Technically, it's possible to glitch yourself into the wall and get it (Megaman 1 is full of glitches), but this is quite difficult and your average player isn't going to be able to pull it off. The only reason why I know about glitching into the wall is because I'm a fan of speedruns, and the current speedrun strat for Megaman 1 glitches into the wall for the M-platform.
Bomb Man is weak to Fire Storm in the original game. Bomb Man's weakness was changed to Rolling Cutter, in the remake, while Fire Storm was the weakness to Oil Man.
Um Actually, Spiderman worked alongside the X-Men but was never officially an X-man. His daughter Mayday Parker was an X-Man due to being born with his powers. #ProfXisFacist
Um actually, you failed to mention Block, the computer Strongbad uses to check email from his Eastern European viewers. This is revealed in sbemail 111.

Barrett was holding onto Dyne in Corel area after he kept him from falling into the canyon, and Scarlett shot them in the hand after the Shinra MP's missed hitting them.
I think this is the first ever shiny question where I definitely could have gotten a perfect score. I guess I should thank my brother in law for knowing Ash and his chainsaw hand! It's mostly because of him I've seen those movies.

Um, actually... For grease fires it's important to know which kind of fire extinguisher is the correct one to use. A red fire extinguisher is usually for what's known as "dry fires" like fires from paper and electricity outlets. If you use a common red fire extinguisher on a grease fire, the chemicals in the extinguisher will actually make the fire combust more. Extinguishers that are silver are usually designed for grease fires.
Um actually, Swift Wind and She-Ra have a psychic link and can feel each other’s pain and feelings after he is transformed into her rainbow unicorn steed by accident. Meaning she can call out to him to summon him if they are separated. Even though Horsey is transformed by accident it seems as though a horse becoming Swift Wind is supposed to happen at some point considering the First Ones Tech/Beacon is designed for She-Ra AND her steed. (Implying all the She-Ra’s get a steed at some point).

um, actually, Obi-wan Kenobi doesn't kill a sith lord. Though the Jedi council believes Darth Maul to be a sith lord. he is in fact only Palpatine's apprentice.
You’re right but for the wrong reason. Darth Maul is a Darth. By definition, the Darth title indicates you are a Sith Lord. The right answer is: Um, Actually Obi Wan wasn’t the FIRST one to kill a Sith Lord. When he cuts Maul in half, Mail doesn’t die. It isn’t until AFTER Anakin kills Count Dooku (Maul’s successor) that Obi Wan finally kills Maul. So Anakin is the first to kill a Sith Lord.
Um actually; since acronyms are pronounced as full words; DMC, TF2, PvZ, GTA and CS:GO don't technically qualify since you say them as lettered abbreviations.
It probably depends on how you define “defeating” them-if it’s just “winning a fight”, im pretty sure obi-wan still counts what with him cutting darth maul in half and all
Umm, actually...for Demolition Man, the restauraunt wasn't Taco Bell. For the UK edition, it was Pizza Hut, because it was a more recognizable franchise in thay region.
Thank you! I just checked my version on amazon prime because of that question. Because I was immediately "ha...um actually...its not taco bell, its pizza hut" and was baffled after that wasn't the mistake. But yeah in my version (Germany) its pizza hut that survived the big franchise war. 😂. Just watched the scene again to be sure that I didnt go crazy. Its one of my guilty pleasure movies that I watched at least 15 times so I was 99.99% sure to know it right 😅.
Woe betide the international audience if there's ever a question about "All Work and No Play makes Jack a Dull Boy" from _The Shining_ since Stanley Kubrick apparently changed it for Italian, German, French and Spanish versions of the film.
I coincidentally just seen that interview Jon Stewart did with George Lucas where Jon asks where Obi-Wan is from since it's never been mentioned before. George said he had to think about it for a second or something along those lines where Jon jokingly calls him out for not already having an answer and how George wouldn't be making it up on the spot. George says of course he wasn't doing that and proceeds to reveal Obi-Wan was born on the planet Stewjon, which was obviously meet with an incredulous look fom Mr. Stewart.

Um actually, all restaurants were Taco Bell only in the American release of Demolition Man. In the version released for European audiences (which is the only version I have watched, for some reason), all restaurants are Pizza Hut.
Um actually, in Megaman all 6 of the Robot Masters are weak to one of the other Robot Masters' weapon, it's just that you can only use 5 of them because whatever order you go in the first one will have to be taken out with just the mega buster.
Um actually in megaman in the NES each of the 6 robot masters are weak to something, bomb man beats guts man beats cut man beats elec man beats ice man beats fire man beats bomb man, bomb man is weak to fire, so to say that only 5 are weak is incorrect
to the credit of Final Fantasy 7's writers, they DID choose to make Barrett, the token black man, an obnoxiously attentive adopted father. Hardly ever shut up about saving the world for Marlene and was probably wasting precious PHS time talking to her.
Wouldn't call Barrett an attentive father... He's basically constantly leaving her in the care of other people for the entire game, and she must have to fend for herself a lot too v as what five-year-old knows how to tend a bar by herself??
@@niceguy191 Um actually, in the original dialogue transcript, available online, Barret leaves Marlene with Aerith's adopted mother because he understands how he's wrapped up in a plot to save the world from destruction. He chooses to give custody of Marlene to a stable, kind adult and even goes so far as to try and convince her biological father to fix himself up and go back for her. There's very little plot available for Barret after the Gold Saucer/Corel Prison section of Disc One because his story revolves around keeping Marlene alive and happy.

Fun side story, in the international releases of Demolition Man the restaurants actually aren't Taco Bells but Pizza Huts as this food chain is more commonly know outside the US. Not really an "Uhm actually" but still a pretty cool fact :)

ALSO, Homestar Runner began with a kids book in 1996, The Homestar Runner Enters the Strongest Man in the World Contest, so while the cartoons began in 2000, Homestar Runner did not.
And technically, Homestar Runner isn't a series of web cartoons. He's just a terrific athlete.
Thank you for this reply. Also there's literally an episode where the Cheat answers emails too. I believe it's the email "cheat day" ?
Wasn't the e-mail he received in Virus fake too? I have a very strong recollection of reading that somewhere, though I can't find it now.
Um, actually it's inaccurate to say that only five out of the six robot masters have weaknesses to other robot master weapons. Bomb Man is, in fact, weak to Fire Man's Fire Storm, it's just that in any given playthrough of Mega Man there is one Robot Master that has to be fought first and therefore can't exploit their weakness.
The horse-headed alien is called a Thakwaash, and his name is Hohass Ekwesh aka Runt (he's one of the only of his kind able to fit in a cockpit) and they actually have multiple mental personalities - warrior, pilot, etc. He flew with Wraith Squadron in the Rogue Squadron book series!
Hohass Ekwesh? So, basically a corruption of "Horse Equus"? Gotta love Star Wars names, lol
First time watching this early, I just got to watch the series recently now it's my favorite pastime with my dad who is the most pedantic person I know. love y'all!
that's pretty chill
If you haven't already, you should check out "Corrections" from _Late Night with Seth Meyers._ Not only are the corrections full of pedantry, pedantry about corrections even comes up in today's episode.
Um actually, Barrett does have a chainsaw arm. It's one of the weapons he can equip so Ryanni actually should have gotten five on that board. Just so happens that two of those were things that could have been for Barrett.
That is an obnoxiously obscure but totally true fact, which is exactly what we need here.
I'd argue this wouldn't count given the format of the question. It's very clearly designed such that one prosthetic matches to one name.
"This show is like being at a party you don't want to be at."
Is there really a gnome in Hearthstone named Finkle Einhorn?
As in, a reference to Ace Ventura Pet Detective?!? Einhorn is Finkle! Finkle is Einhorn!
I immediately assumed that was the fake one because I was thinking of the Ace Ventura thing.
He's the gnome you free from The Beast
I mean, he was always in Blackrock Spire in WoW... Hearthstone just incorporated him.
@@damien4197 In all fairness, I utterly boycotted WoW for murdering my favorite RTS series, and also recognize that I would have utterly become addicted to it had I not.
I thought this too but the question just said "legendary" and he is a non collectable legendary you get from killing The Beast.
Um Actually, Bombman is weak to Fireman, making Ryanni correct and also making many other starting points perfectly viable. I know this was made ages ago, but still.
Um actually, Marcus “Needles” Kane is also referred to simply as Sweet Tooth in crossover media like PlayStation all-stars. So while it may originally be the name of the car, SONY has retroactively also made it an alternative name for the character as well.
Dude, Ify ALWAYS does this. Like, I think he forgot to say umm actually in LITERALLY every episode that features him as a contestant.
It's also only Taco Bell in the US release. Internationally it was Pizza Hut that won the franchise war.
You forgot to say “Um, Actually”, so no point for you. Sorry.
@@kirvine77 it's not a correction though, it's a fun fact
I could have sworn that the timeframe for Demolition Man had already passed... I guess Taco Bell and Schwarzenegger still have a decade to get their shit together.
Um actually, prosthetic is the adjective form prosthesis is the noun form
Um Actually TF2 could have been acronymed to both "Team Fortress 2" and "Titanfall 2," both of which have communities that use TF2 as an acronym, confusingly.
I guess its similar to Diablo 2 and Destiny 2, both are D2.
Trapp never said, "Team Fortress 2" was the only correct answer.
Um actually, I have literally never heard anyone call Titanfall 2 "TF2". It is clearly understood what you mean when you say "TF2". That would be like talking about how much you love FF3 and it turns out you meant Fatal Frame 3. You're full of shit.
Um actually, Titanfall fans prefer using TF|2 to distinguish it from TF2 by referencing the title card
@@jksumaylo8066 If so that's super creative and I love it
Ally seems like the kind of person you'd want to just chill with. Really funny and aware. You're cool, Ally!
Umm Actually in addition to Homestar Runner answering Strongbad's emails, The Cheat also did an episode answering the emails.
Um, Actually while Finkle Einhorn is a legendary Gnome card, he is an uncollectable card that can only be summoned by The Beast.
I'm amazed to learn that "Finkle Einhorn" is a real character🤯...
I was sitting here going, "wait, that's from Ace Ventura"
I love the idea of Brennan buzzing in to correct people outside of um, actually hours, he should carry it with him everywhere
Twisted and Sweet Tooth in the same card?! We’re edging into Starkid territory… or maybe I’m just obsessed (I am)
wow what a reference!!!
Whether or not they’re going into starkid territory I certainly am. Maybe I should watch HMB! Again
Including homestarrunner in Um, Actually can only have one response.
Blow it out youw eawwww.
Um, actually, She-Ra has a telepathic connection with Swift Wind and could call him over whenever she is in need, or "summon him" using magic. I assume that the question meant summon as to bring into existence, but it was oddly worded.
Um actually, they did however say she was 7ft tall even tho the show says 8ft so there was something wrong in the question
Um actually, did she do that in the Netflix show? I don't recall seeing that. She-Ra could do it in the original (better) series, but he specifically said the question was about "She-Ra and the Princesses of Power" therefore the (good but not better) Netflix show.
@@RJPolito I haven't seen the original show but in the new one they explicitly mention having a sacred bond, Swift Wind senses when she's in trouble and takes Bow and Glimmer to her, and he senses when they're on their way back from space
@@RJPolito she does yes but if im remembering right its not something either of them knew they could do from the start
it was revealed later on
@@mrroboshadow Ok then. To be honest I haven't finished watching the full series. I'm a big fan of the original He-Man and She-Ra shows as well as the 2002 series, but this new one didn't feel like She-Ra to me. Not saying it was bad, the story's interesting and the characters are good, but at the same time they just feel like completely different characters not She-Ra and company.
Y'know what? Seeing these pop up on Friday has become a really happy part of the week. Thanks for creating this.
Um, actually...you're probably correct with the order of robot masters, however having completed the game for the first time recently, I'd just like to say that cut man is a way easier first boss than Bomb Man and he seems weaker to Mega Man's blaster than the rest.
The "correct" order works pretty well, but I like starting Gutsman first because I'm not a big fan of Bombman's weapon. If you start Cutman 1st and follow the order, then you can't remove the section of the wall in Elecman's stage to get the M-platform, which forces you to redo it. Technically, it's possible to glitch yourself into the wall and get it (Megaman 1 is full of glitches), but this is quite difficult and your average player isn't going to be able to pull it off. The only reason why I know about glitching into the wall is because I'm a fan of speedruns, and the current speedrun strat for Megaman 1 glitches into the wall for the M-platform.
Bomb Man is weak to Fire Storm in the original game. Bomb Man's weakness was changed to Rolling Cutter, in the remake, while Fire Storm was the weakness to Oil Man.
Um Actually, Spiderman worked alongside the X-Men but was never officially an X-man.
His daughter Mayday Parker was an X-Man due to being born with his powers.
#ProfXisFacist
I mean he was a teacher at the xavier school and fought alongside his students to defeat Mr. Sinister.
If it walks like a duck and all that
Its time for your favorite game original episode or a reair of drop out !!!
Iffy looks slimmer. But I've never seen Ally wear their hair like that. Though some of the questions seem familiar. Hmmm. Re-air, final answer.
@@myprecious66 FYI apparently Ally is a "they."
Um actually, you failed to mention Block, the computer Strongbad uses to check email from his Eastern European viewers. This is revealed in sbemail 111. Also I believe the Corpy NT6 appears earlier in the series (before the Lappy), but I'm not sure if Strongbad actually uses it to check a sbemail at that time...
Umm actually, I'm pretty sure the e-mail in the Virus episode was fake, although they did receive many similar e-mails.
Barrett was holding onto Dyne in Corel area after he kept him from falling into the canyon, and Scarlett shot them in the hand after the Shinra MP's missed hitting them.
I screamed when you said “Ozma to Yzma.” I’ve never felt so SEEN 🥲💖
I think this is the first ever shiny question where I definitely could have gotten a perfect score. I guess I should thank my brother in law for knowing Ash and his chainsaw hand! It's mostly because of him I've seen those movies.
Woah, Ify, everyone knows Final Fantasy IX is the best Final Fantasy
Um, actually, Trapp said his team wrote the first fan question when talking about the correct order. Why you trying to steal credit Mike?
Knew the answer to the real life skills because I once had a scout leader that used compressed air to shoot a bag of flour straight up, so it would explode on top of the campfire and cause a huge fireball. We all stood way, way back and I still felt like my eyeballs melted.
Wow they really baited me with Brennan in the beginning I feel betrayed and I'm in the comments.
Um, Actually. When Homestar answered an email, the segment's name is changed from sbemail to hremail.
Um, actually, FF7 is not the greatest FF in the franchise. FF6 is.
Um, actually... For grease fires it's important to know which kind of fire extinguisher is the correct one to use. A red fire extinguisher is usually for what's known as "dry fires" like fires from paper and electricity outlets. If you use a common red fire extinguisher on a grease fire, the chemicals in the extinguisher will actually make the fire combust more. Extinguishers that are silver are usually designed for grease fires.
Um actually, Swift Wind and She-Ra have a psychic link and can feel each other’s pain and feelings after he is transformed into her rainbow unicorn steed by accident. Meaning she can call out to him to summon him if they are separated. Even though Horsey is transformed by accident it seems as though a horse becoming Swift Wind is supposed to happen at some point considering the First Ones Tech/Beacon is designed for She-Ra AND her steed. (Implying all the She-Ra’s get a steed at some point).
Ify's Nas Nas almost broke me in the middle of a crowded train. I had to pinch my tongue so hard I cried. Worth it
It was the “let’s see your nasnas”… “i drew Arthur as a teen going to a seafood blowout” “I drew dodrio” “I drew Nas with a chain” that did it for me
I’ve been a subscriber to drop since it came out, however I don’t know why I still click on these when I get notified as I can watch them any time I want 😂
Same.
Finkle Einhorn is a reference to Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, namely to the character Lois Einhorn/Ray Finkle where Ace Ventura is trying to find the connection between the two and keeps saying "Finkle and Einhorn, Einhorn and Finkle" before coming to the realization that they are the same person; He also uses Ace Ventura's catchphrase "Alrighty Then".
Been watching since you guys started releasing these on TH-cam, hands down my favourite episode yet, love the show, so glad for your Kickstarter success! Keep on truckin'
i love Ryanni's hair omg
Um actually, You misspelled "Mekgineer" in the Hearthstone question. You added an 'n' after the 'k'
Ok i cant be the only one who saw Ryanni's purple the mustache and saying wah and thought waluigi
um, actually, Obi-wan Kenobi doesn't kill a sith lord. Though the Jedi council believes Darth Maul to be a sith lord. he is in fact only Palpatine's apprentice.
and it's revealed in the clone wars and solo that Darth Maul wasn't killed after being cut in half.
You’re right but for the wrong reason. Darth Maul is a Darth. By definition, the Darth title indicates you are a Sith Lord.
The right answer is: Um, Actually Obi Wan wasn’t the FIRST one to kill a Sith Lord. When he cuts Maul in half, Mail doesn’t die. It isn’t until AFTER Anakin kills Count Dooku (Maul’s successor) that Obi Wan finally kills Maul. So Anakin is the first to kill a Sith Lord.
@@hmt501 Does Obi-Wan actually kill Maul? He's alive in Star Wars Rebels and by that point he was in hiding, keeping an eye on Luke.
@@jamiewilliamson9829 Yes, Obi-Wan kills Maul in the Rebels episode "Twin Suns."
@@jamiewilliamson9829 He dies in rebels! Search Obi Wan vs Darth Mail Star Wars Rebels and watch the Disney XD scene!
Um actually; since acronyms are pronounced as full words; DMC, TF2, PvZ, GTA and CS:GO don't technically qualify since you say them as lettered abbreviations.
Um actually, Anakin was the first jedi in a thousand years to defeat a sith lord because Darth Maul survived?
Defeat, not kill, Maul was very defeated
It probably depends on how you define “defeating” them-if it’s just “winning a fight”, im pretty sure obi-wan still counts what with him cutting darth maul in half and all
@@ophiuchus_kin fair enough
Umm, actually...for Demolition Man, the restauraunt wasn't Taco Bell. For the UK edition, it was Pizza Hut, because it was a more recognizable franchise in thay region.
Um, Actually, funny thing is, in the European Cut of Demolition Man it wasn´t Taco Bell, it was Pizza Hut! (This threw me of, I didn't knew that)
Thank you!
I just checked my version on amazon prime because of that question. Because I was immediately "ha...um actually...its not taco bell, its pizza hut" and was baffled after that wasn't the mistake.
But yeah in my version (Germany) its pizza hut that survived the big franchise war. 😂. Just watched the scene again to be sure that I didnt go crazy. Its one of my guilty pleasure movies that I watched at least 15 times so I was 99.99% sure to know it right 😅.
@@JoshTyrReece same here, I'm also from germany and I was "HA... Um Actually it's Pizza Hut..." but dang... :D
Woe betide the international audience if there's ever a question about "All Work and No Play makes Jack a Dull Boy" from _The Shining_ since Stanley Kubrick apparently changed it for Italian, German, French and Spanish versions of the film.
I coincidentally just seen that interview Jon Stewart did with George Lucas where Jon asks where Obi-Wan is from since it's never been mentioned before. George said he had to think about it for a second or something along those lines where Jon jokingly calls him out for not already having an answer and how George wouldn't be making it up on the spot. George says of course he wasn't doing that and proceeds to reveal Obi-Wan was born on the planet Stewjon, which was obviously meet with an incredulous look fom Mr. Stewart.
anyone else think um actually he's not referred to as an alicorn in the show so arguably swift wind isnt an alicorn? like afaik its from mlp
He's got wings and a horn, and to my knowledge we don't otherwise have a term for something that meets BOTH those criteria, so...
How can you have a Shiny Question called An Arm and a Leg, about prosthetics, and not have Fullmetal?! Where is Edward?!
My favorite thing is when trapp tells ally they’re wrong and they’re just like “no you’re wrong” 😂
Edit: actually my favorite thing is trapps excitement when someone gets a question right when he wasn’t expecting it like ally with the twisted metal question 😂 but ally’s “I beg to differ” is a close second
Um actually, all restaurants were Taco Bell only in the American release of Demolition Man. In the version released for European audiences (which is the only version I have watched, for some reason), all restaurants are Pizza Hut.
Would love to see a special history episode
Genuine question: why does a wet towel put out a grease fire if pouring water on it doesn't?
Um Actually, Obi-wan was just a Padawan when he defeated a Sith Lord, not a Jedi yet.
He wasn't a jedi knight but still part of the jedi order; thus, he was a jedi.
Um actually, in Megaman all 6 of the Robot Masters are weak to one of the other Robot Masters' weapon, it's just that you can only use 5 of them because whatever order you go in the first one will have to be taken out with just the mega buster.
Hello you're great!
No you're great!
Um Actually those are Initialisms not Acronyms. Acronyms have to be able to be spoken as a word
Um, actually
They were called "sbemails" not "Strong Bad Emails"!
Um actually in megaman in the NES each of the 6 robot masters are weak to something, bomb man beats guts man beats cut man beats elec man beats ice man beats fire man beats bomb man, bomb man is weak to fire, so to say that only 5 are weak is incorrect
Um actually She-ra is 8 feet tall, not 7
T-tall tall woman big she BIG
to the credit of Final Fantasy 7's writers, they DID choose to make Barrett, the token black man, an obnoxiously attentive adopted father. Hardly ever shut up about saving the world for Marlene and was probably wasting precious PHS time talking to her.
True, just because Samuel L Jackson acts like this in movies doesn’t mean other characters can’t act like this.
Wouldn't call Barrett an attentive father... He's basically constantly leaving her in the care of other people for the entire game, and she must have to fend for herself a lot too v as what five-year-old knows how to tend a bar by herself??
@@niceguy191 Um actually, in the original dialogue transcript, available online, Barret leaves Marlene with Aerith's adopted mother because he understands how he's wrapped up in a plot to save the world from destruction. He chooses to give custody of Marlene to a stable, kind adult and even goes so far as to try and convince her biological father to fix himself up and go back for her. There's very little plot available for Barret after the Gold Saucer/Corel Prison section of Disc One because his story revolves around keeping Marlene alive and happy.
Isn't it mostly in the translation too? The original japanese wasn't nearly as shitty as the english dialogue he got
@@rheawelsh4142 I wouldn't be able to speak on that but two months later it resonates even more that the 6'5" pile of muscle with a vulcan minigun grafted to his forearm might not have the most couth demeanor
Um actually if you are saying sweet tooth is the truck then twisted metal black has Needles on the cover and there are others were only his clown logo appears on the cover not the truck.
This is going to sound like I’m SIMPing, but no, Um actually, Storm isn’t really a mutant. She is a goddess and her powers aren’t from her mutant abilities, they’re from her goddesses. I saw a TikTok comic review for this like yesterday but can’t be more specific.
Um actually he said Five Nights at Freddy while it should be Five Nights at Freddy's
My favorite moments are when Ally gets a point
Um, actually he is definitely known as Sweet Tooth.
Cant believe no one has quoted Gimili: "That still only counts as 1!" When someone overkills on one point like Iffy did
Umm actually a Pegasus is a winged horse an alicorn is a winged unicorn
These questions are becoming "Who or what doesn't belong on this list."
Lot of claps for the Barret anger impression ;) :D I had really always thought he was more of a Mr.T than a Sam Jackson
A Drag Queen doing the rock on hand pose after getting a point on a nerdy game show is such a vibe 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Fun side story, in the international releases of Demolition Man the restaurants actually aren't Taco Bells but Pizza Huts as this food chain is more commonly know outside the US. Not really an "Uhm actually" but still a pretty cool fact :)
