OviManic's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Interloping / 45 / A100]

The first I’ve heard someone liking the portable “port” of a popular game! The Tony Hawk GBA one is really that good!?

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

I've heard a lot of positive things about it!

Call me a glutton for punishment or a Curious Carl, but I have a habit of looking at threads that were most recently locked: ESPECIALLY, the ones that start innocently enough just by the title alone. There’s one thread I remember that came so out of left field, I couldn’t help but laugh!

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

Hi Ovi! I completely agree with you; they can be really funny with how crazy the threads get. There’s something fascinating about witnessing complete, unhinged insanity in the BBS—that's what makes it so wonderful! Though sometimes it definitely gets completely out of hand, it’s a good decision when they are locked.

Hell on Duty, ay? Might check it out just to see how well a guitar hero mic can perform!

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

Thank you so much, Ovi!

[Nebulate / 36 / A100]

Okay, new question for Aalasteir! Best Danish dessert?

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

Thank you so much, Ovi! My favorite Danish dessert is Risalamande.

So ‘tis be the start of Alien Hominid having a rap battle with an agent?

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

Yes!

[RavioliBox / 33 / A100]

Wow! So much to discuss at 29:33!

But seriously, it’s a great discussion, and I hope you guys had fun!

Also, I saw a Tankman figure at Pico Day, but I didn’t know or at least remembered there were multiple being given away by someone!! 😟

RavioliBox responds:

Yeh! The guy had a box full of them!

Okay, I can definitely hear this being played in a Newgrounds game sometime in the mid 2000s!

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

Hi Ovi! That is exactly what I was aiming for. I'm very happy to hear you think it sounds like a Newgrounds game from the mid-2000s.

[ZaneLittle / 32 / A100]

I knew the Kirby Right Back at Ya collab was gonna get brought up! Admittedly, I didn’t like it as much as the original episode because some of the jokes got lost in the mayhem.

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

Hi Ovi! Great to see you! Sad to hear some of the jokes got lost in the mayhem.

[JamesHeart / 30 / A100]

Can’t stand “Take on Me” in general anyways. Freakin’ Illumination replaced what could’ve been the best song in the Super Mario Bros. Movie for that 80s garbage and I have been frustrated by that dumb decision since!

SteveMaddenFootball responds:

You're absolutely right that they make dumb decisions. There are so many amazing songs available, yet they choose ones that people already know. I think they just don't respect the audience's intelligence.

[ADR3-N / 2 / 17 / A200]

When it comes to these types of coworker relationships, I’m often free to listen to whatever they want or have to say despite the fact I don’t have a habit of talking myself.
That being said, if said coworker is becoming a complete distraction, I would definitely tell them we can continue the discussion on break but not at the moment when I’m busy doing the task at hand. I don’t wish to shut them down completely because that tends to sour relationships hard.

ADR3-N responds:

Yes, this is exactly what I'm talking about, the latter situation in which I'm very clearly trying to work on a pile of dirty dishes, and the coworker is wanting to gossip about something totally irrelevant, or which consumes mental energy needed to determine how to stack said dishes -- or the coworker is just... really in the way lol.

I try to continue the conversation as best as my little distracted mind will let me, while still doing my work xD
