Why did Blockbusters always have one person playing two?

[CaptainWacky]

Did they have to make sure to pick two people with the combined intelligence of the solo player?

It was to try and prove or disprove the old adage, two heads are better than one.

 

[CaptainWacky]

The only reason anyone ever watch was to hear "I'll have a P please Bob..."

 

[Love Child]

On the other hand, I was at Cucina Cucina the other day and they had a million people running around, and still it seemed there was not enough help.

 

[CaptainWacky]

IT'S ALWAYS THE WAY.

The US version was the same, and I always wondered why too.

OMG ITS A GAME SHOW THAT STARTED IN AMERICA! WHO'DA THUNK IT?

 

[Love Child]

Oh. The fucking game show. Not the store. I see. I see.

This shit makes me nostalgia hard.

Boring Fact of the Day: I saw Bob Holness in Woolworths once. He left without buying anything.

 

[whisky]

Do you think he ever buys peas in a shop, or gets someone else to do it because of what the person on the counter will no doubt say as they scan them?

 

[CaptainWacky]

Not quite as boring fact: Blockbusters is on Challenge TV right now and a young Konnie Huq is one of the contestants.

 

[CaptainWacky]

She just told Bob that she once sat on his knee and he gave her a lolly. I'm not making this up.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

BUT WHAT THE FUCK HAS SHE EVER DONE SINCE, HUH?

Oh yeah... there was all that tv stuff, I suppose...

 

[CaptainWacky]

And the breasts.

 

[headvoid]

We should follow her round throwing lollipops at her and shouting GIVE US AN E PLEASE KONNIE.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

We could throw Olympic torches at her as some vague commentary on how she supported a games held by a country that oppresses its women (I don't know if China really oppresses its women, but "creating awareness" of things makes you look good, so the facts really aren't all that important).

 

[headvoid]

We should shout "RAPE IS BAD" at her as well. Because more people need to know that.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

We may run into a counter-demonstration of men who were helped to overcome public wee shyness by her and Charlie.

GREAT QUALITY UPLOAD

Watching that, I had to stop and think if I've been drinking today, or if it was just the screen moving around.
