Might be more known to Canadians than otherwise but for those who remember Ed the Sock: I have his Fromage specials for 2000/2001/2002/2003/2004, but there’s zero trace of 05 (except for a handful of clips on 1 youtube channel which amounts to 30% of the full special), and zero trace of anything pre 2000.

Even Kerzner himself says he doesn’t have the earlier ones (iirc), and the 05 one at best was:

A) Posted to his Facebook group once and got DMCA’d by Much within hours, leading to almost no one having ripped it as far as I know. B) Offered up as a reward tier item to those who backed one of he and his wife’s crowdfunding campaigns, but they also have a history of not following through on those and I’ve never seen anyone who got any digital downloads for the old Fromage specials.

So here I sit for year number 18 of my ongoing quest to try and eventually find those remaining specials, remembering the morning of August 14th 2007 when I threw out the fucking VHS tapes I had them taped on while decluttering the week prior to a cross-country move.

Well least the bust looks accurate.

It was either purchased by my father, or my uncle. The answer has been lost to time as both are long deceased. At times it was in one’s house until it was stolen back by the other, and vice versa. Both men warred over who it belonged to for years, nearly tore a chunk of the family apart. Normal ass hammer bought at a Canadian Tire in the 80s.

Now its in my hands, where it waits to be drawn and cannot be put away until a nail is driven.

I have a hammer with a mysterious legacy that can be donated to the cause!

What people need to learn is that “indie game” it’s not a synonym for good, or worthwhile. I’ve pirated tons of indie games which wereamazing and I ended up buying.

I’ve also pirated tons of indie games that I wouldn’t have spent a damn dollar on because they absolutely sucked.

Pirate indie games all damn day. Pay for the ones that aren’t flame-broiled ass. Don’t reward people who asset flip or put 5 mins of effort into something just because the game is listed under a category called ‘indie’ lmao
