Yeah, I say it’s #11, but really, it’s #12. Live from RavenCon ‘08 with John Cmar, Laura Burns, Joe Komenda, Stuart Jaffe and Tom Gideon! We talk PUPPIES and dishwashers. There has been alcohol involved.

We missed you, Jason!

    Initially I thought that the suggested convention topic was “Ood puppies”, which is very different, but that would be good, too!

    A) the dishwasher talk hit a bit too close to home (going to have to make my wife listen to it).
    B) Is there a link to the picture of the puppy w/gin?
    C) As entertaining as the others were… Jason was missed (his tweets were the best part of the show somehow).

    First off, the conjugation of “to smite” everyone was casting about for: “If Jean-Claude Van Damme beat up Jesus, Jesus’s dad would have smitten JCVD.” It’s the conditional perfect progressive tense. (And yes, I had to look that up. I’m not that much of a grammar geek!)

    Second, there’s a fourth possible state for the dishwasher–some of the dishes could have been clean and some dirty. And yes, EWWW! But it was a party; a partial load could have been cleaned but not unloaded and someone then added a dirty item. This is clearly a guy-only* state; a non-guy would say that the dirty item contaminated the rest of the load, so it was all dirty.

    * “Guy”, in this case, is not to be used as a gender distinction. Not all men are “guys” and a woman can be a “guy”. Think more Oscar Madison vs. Felix Unger. A guy is the type of person who can pull some cold cuts from the fridge and seriously ask, “Is this meat too green?” I will say, however, I have yet to hear a woman ask that question. ;-)

    Oops! The conditional perfect progressive should be, “Jean-Claude Van Damme would have been smitten by Jesus’s dad.” Which is how the comment started out in the ‘cast.

    My wife and I have had many arguements exactly like the dishwasher story. I’m very into spacial relations and puzzles and putting everything into it’s right place. But when I add a dish or two to the dishwasher after my wife has finished loading it she’s not impressed with my problem solving abilities. She sees it as a direct attack on her dishwasher loading abilities.
