Hope you’re feeling better! I love your hat!

Andy

Daisy Bell was the first song ever sung by a computer-generated voice

Jacob Bess

41:00 I also have trypophobia. I work at Walmart and I used to be in the produce section and dealing with bags of sprouting potatoes was torture for me. My skins crawling just thinking about it.

Spyko

the relevance of "Daisy Bell" is simply that it is the first sung ever sang by a computer ^^

AZTEC NINJA

You and Morgan had the exact same reaction to Zooble saying they want to have s** 🤣🤣🤣

David Johnson

*And* the song HAL sang in 2001: A Space Odyssey, while he was slowly being "lobotomized." Given Caine *also* seems to be slowly losing it...

Kitsune Kokoro

And that's also why HAL 9000 sang the song in 2001: A Space Odyssey Surely that's not ominous foreshadowing...

Andy

Jax says he believes that everyone here slowly falls into their "archetypes," but he's proven wrong by literally every character in this episode Ragatha acts the opposite of cheerful, Gangle acts the opposite of sad, Zooble acts the opposite of grumpy, Kinger actss the opposite of crazy, Jax acts the opposite of funny, and Pomni acts the opposite of being unsure about who she is

Kitsune Kokoro

9:07 Not often that you and Jax have the *exact same reaction* to something XD

Some Simp

This show is more character focus than story focus honestly i like it for that

Chance

I'm sorry. I'm not feeling good today. I hope you're feel better. I. I have to be n out of my meds for a while. I've finally feeling better. So I hope you feel better. Roman's help just united warm even though no, it's summer.

Some Simp

npc jax is the worst theory in my opinion

David Johnson

"I wonder if the physics of the guns works differently?" That seems to make sense. That would also explain why Ragatha's gun just did the "boom" flag - she's literally not capable of shooting someone, so the gun didn't.

Martin E Melcher

Really, the only characters we havent seen show signs of abstraction are Kinger and Zooble. Yeah we talked with Zooble with her dysmorphia. But we havent seen her really struggle and panic like we have Gangle and Jax. Ragatha maybe, but that was more the first episode when she was attacked. I worry, if we do get an abstraction, it'll be Kinger, and it would be when hed finally snap during a cohesive moment in the darkness and reveal he was a dev on the game

Wren Williams

DAMN IT she missed the creepy jax smile!

Joey Quixote

Might be my favorite episode to date. It's been my experience that 9.8 times outta 10, if someone advertises themselves as a "charming asshole", they're really just an asshole. Jax has that in spades. But I think you hit the nail on the head. He's given up on ever making it back to the real world, so he's embraced chaotic nihilism. I never thought I'd be worried about him, but here we are. Kinger's therapy session with Ragatha is beautiful. I think he saved her from abstracting here. A lot of people needed those words, so I also think Kinger looking right at the camera was intentional. Him hating himself until Ragatha came along though... So she's been here second longest? Zooble is becoming one of my favorites. The way they look out for Gangle is sweet. Jax has really done a number on Gangle though. Poor thing is traumatized at the mere thought of him. Gangle and Zooble both having avatar gimmicks... Makes me wonder why noone else does. I'd just assume to accommodate Zooble's body dysmorphia and Gangle's bipolar depression. I couldn't mark if Gangle's sad mask smiling after she got shot was because she was actually happy for once, or if it was because she was happy she was "dead". Caine messed with Jax's mind again. Something he said he couldn't do... I'd seen a similar image to the one you mentioned, but it was on the person's neck. The image was attached to a phony article about a shampoo recall, likely linked to some spyware laden site. I had this hair that wouldn't stop jabbing me in the back of the neck for the rest of the day and I couldn't stop thinking of that image.

Ryan

Hey, maybe Jax was a QA tester who got trapped in the game! They push the boundaries, they try and break the game. But they have to do it again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again... (twelve hours later) ...and again, and again, and again...

Alp

Zooble uses ANY pronouns actually :D

Alp

The best episode yet. Also pretty sure everyone else is gonna discuss it better than me so I'm just gonna say... Bubble was cute this episode. That little "help me Caine" was hilarious. ... Also Zooble canonically wants to fuck. This is extremely important lore.

Ryan

For a show that is so bright and colorful and childish in its production design this sure explores some dark subjects...

William Timmins

Yeah, I've known a lot of folks who act like being obnoxious and abrasive is 'telling it like it is' or 'people can't handle my honesty.' No, you're an asshole.

Sam Macias

Hey y'all, I'm that Sam that Mosco mentioned & she's right that was an absolute hilarious moment when playing REPO. It was the definition of comedy timing lmao

Annieme

Hope you’re feeling better! Also I *knew* you’d get a kick out of it when pomni mentioned jax’s trypophobia xD

Adrian

I'm gonna be honest, I really don't buy into the NPC Jax theory. I do think that maybe Kinger and his wife might have been testers for the game since Kinger was said to have been there the longest, and since he has a background in computer development it's not that strange that he'd be part of a team testing for bugs and glitches. Kinger is just the best, too. I love his conversation with Ragatha.

man-of-bvz1n3ss

Daisy Bell was the first song to ever be sung by a computer, and was infamously sung by Hal 9000 in 2001: A Space Odyssey

jellybrigades

Jax has chosen nihilism to cope because if there’s no consequences in this video game world, he can pretend he’s not trapped; he’s just playing another game. That’s why he was behaving differently in the fast food episode. That adventure got a little too close to reality. If he forms connections with other players he’ll have to 1) acknowledge them as individuals, and 2) face the fact that any of them can abstract at any moment. Pomni calling Jax’s antics out for what they actually are took him out of the game he’s created to survive into the prison that they’re trapped in, which led to the panic attack and near abstraction. Jax is an unbelievably cruel person, but I can recognize a defense mechanism when I see one…. That man is disassociating.

Brett

I also love the hat.

WyvernKing99

First off, I love that hat. Secondly, I'm sorry you got sick, I hope you feel better soon. And third, I love how your reaction to Zooble saying they wanted to be able to have "seggs" matched Jax's perfectly. (And mine for that matter.) So hilarious.

Anzac-A1

Honestly, I had high hopes for TADC...but now it just feels kinda meh? Beyond the deep analysis stuff...it's just boring to me. I have no desire to rewatch any of it.

Tammy Ragsdale

Honestly, the writing, animation and pacing of this episode was amazing. Nothing felt forced or out of character, the fact that the guns worked differently for different characters based on their mindsets made sense, and this certainly didn't feel like the longest episode so far. And the part that can really get you thinking? Everyone I've watched this with or reactors who I've watched knows Jax is lying and trying to cover up about accidently starting to care about Pomni without noticing. Everyone so far. So, my question is, was that the show's writing and animation? Or did we, the audience, start to care about Jax without noticing either?

Álex Martínez

The audience started caring about Jax because of the show's writing and animation

Stephen Mumford

I mean, the whole 'sex' question: Zooble IS based entirely around the idea of swappable, interchangeable parts, so if ever there was an opportunist in the show for that sort of approach, it'd be them. Caine's reaction to that question, however, led me to another thought. If, as the prevailing theory goes, the Digital Circus was originally a type of ELIZA-esque therapy virtual world, having 'rated e for everyone' content filters enabled to begin with was a poor design choice, because, almost by its very nature, effective therapy would require having to discuss some very mature topics. If so, obviously Caine is having difficulties with trying to enable serious mature therapy with such a limiting filter, which would explain how non-kid-friendly things keep slipping through (such as violence, guns, etc.). The Daisy Bell song is also an interesting item to reference, because in addition to its history as being the first song 'sung' by a computer, it was also famously the last words of the classic sci-fi computer, HAL: an AI who went crazy after it was forced to try and resolve conflicting instructions.

Lisunavailable

I really hope that Jax ISN'T a NPC,it would feel like a cheap cop out on his character.Him being human makes him more interesting.But that's just me.

Stellar Kruize

Jax be like, "it's just a prank, bro!" lol

Jittercritter

The face Jax makes at Zooble gave me so much joy

Jittercritter

You and Elijah make me want to write so bad lol! Good reactors are an underrated source of writing inspiration in my experience

man-of-bvz1n3ss

And each letter in HAL is the letter ahead of each letter in IBM. This is meant to indicate how much HAL has improved on IBM's technology.

Havoc 13

Just a slight correction. Jax won the popularity poll by 6 votes. A glitch staffer confirmed it

FoxtrotStudios

Goose has already debunked the Jax AI theory on twitter

ELS_Art

🤣 Haven’t even gotten to the episode yet and it’s already hillarious you just trying to guess the plot of the episode.

ELS_Art

People can have wisdom and not be a Therapist! 🤣

Kyasemi

In my honest opinion I don’t really love the theory that Jax is a npc bc it dehumanizes him(even tho it seems like he doesn’t want to be reminded of his humanity rn) and kind of takes away from his character as a whole. He’s an asshole yes, but he’s still very much human and him being a npc defeats the purpose of the story Gooseworx is trying to tell us. Like, I’m not saying it’s a stupid theory or anything but it just feels wrong to me, especially after ep6

Taigan

I haven’t read other people’s theories so apologies if this is just rehashing. 1) why do people think Jax is an NPC? Cane’s blipping Gummygoo out of existence pretty solidly shows that NOCs aren’t allowed to socialize with the players. 2) while I see the logic of this being some kind of therapy program, I don’t buy it. I think that (with the exception of Kinger) none of them are supposed to be in there. Given that Pomni said she was doing urban exploration videos and Ragatha said she worked real estate, I think they all were checking out an old abandoned office complex. They came across a weird headset, tried it on, and whammo. 3) this im less certain of, but its a persistent theory in my head. I think the tragic reveal of the series is that they weren’t digitized into this world, they were copied into it. The mystery headset scanned their brains and created AI copies. Meaning that their “real” selves are still out in the world, unaware of all this going on. It also means there’s no going back for any of them. This is their only world.

The Violet Bee

I love how you’ll take straightforward character dramas and just treat them like they’re trying to be M Night Shamylan stories. S’ humorous.

frameschick

Oh my God, I had to pause to comment!! MY trypophobia was initially triggered by THAT EXACT SAME LOTUS POD PHOTOSHOP. I was in high school, I think, when I saw it and even looking it up on Snopes and finding out it was fake didn't save me. T_T

Obiwan Cornobi

Yeah, I see Kinger as more of a 'Father figure giving life advice' more than a therapist.

Taigan

@51:56 we see the flashbangs set up for the finale @55:59 “just what everyone wants: a straight couple.” Straight. Riiiiiight. 😉🏳️‍⚧️

Florena Emberlin

Jax can't be the funny one, because Jax absolutely cannot stand being the butt of the joke. Jax can dish it out but absolutely cannot take it.

Florena Emberlin

Yeah, google Trypophobia at your own risk. I don't have it, but putting it into google will bring up a picture of an example in the first response even without clicking the image tag.

Faroth

4:17 even if it was, remember is the USA, a country where they ban "violent advertising of videogameswith guns" inthe same store that sell guns with a "have a nice comeback to school" poster on them 😂🤣
