I believe it's around the 39 mark when the premise of Cory's topic goes flying out the window.
I wish you guys would stop encouraging him.

I thought it was earlier than that tbh.
Thanks for listening, y'all. This was a fun one for me.

Came here just to post my favorite line from this episode. Had me chuckling for a good segment of my commute. Thank you!
Turns out it got the attention of others, too. You're both close enough to right that we'll call it a draw.

So I was fifty seconds off.
I wish you guys would stop encouraging him.

Awesome episode and thanks for taking my question! Btw my PAX story is pretty funny now but was embarrassing at the time.

I think one of the most epic fails from the Overwatch crew came courtesy of myself.
It was a 6v6 GWJ vs GWJ custom game on the map Busan. We were fighting for control of the second control point and it was just about overtime. I was running back as Ana, got to the point by myself ready to fight. I can’t quite remember why (probably being a cocky jerk) I wanted to wave hello to the other team, and instead ended up in a canned, unskippable emote if Ana reaching back, grabbing a beach ball and serving it. This whole sequence takes a good 5 second where you literally can’t move outside of the animation. So there I am, instead of fighting for the point, lobbing a beach ball at the other team. I was yelling at myself “Nooooo! Not the beach ball!!!!”.
We lost. And “beach ball-ing it” has become part of our lexicon. I am equal parts proud and humiliated.

In my opinion, the developers acted like complete a-holes.
My epic fail: at a LAN party with my then friends/classmates we were playing Worms World Party. I'm fairly decent at the game, and was swinging the ninja rope like a boss. Until of course I missed my landing shot and gracefully plunged into a watery death.
The Worms network code sucked big time though. Meaning that there were 3-5 excrutiating seconds between my failure and the entire room bursting out in laughter (me included of course).
