  • i used to love this

    this show used to be nice… but now its just them plugging the patreon. theyve run out of riddles and jokes, and they keep reusing ones from the Patreon- and, actively knowing that most of us wouldn’t get them, telling us to subscribe so we would. sandy’s the only good person here. now it’s just ad and shameless plug-filled slop with unoriginal jokes and obscure references.
