Perhaps I like being told to fuck off.

I wish it didn't bother me, the whole cackling thing, and I'm sure that Libby will be entertaining as hell with her own show (because fuck, I'm never making *that* mistake again), but the cackle - just that cackle - bothers me.

Okay? We done?

*I'll go now and sit over in the corner and stuff socks in my arsehole*

[Enunciated Piffle]

It sounds like a dick thing to say. Hating laughter. But it's distracting on a podcast.

I think it's the headphones. You're getting that cackle straight to the cranium.

[Jo_Culprit]

Guys seriously, is her laugh really a cackle?

I listen to the show with headphones too and I find the background sounds make it feel more like you're in the room with them.

To each his own though I guess

[Engels]

I for one like Libby's laugh. Reminds us from time to time that Chemda isn't totally swimming in a sea of dicks.

[My Sweaty Balls]

Witches cackle - if you say you don't like her laughter that's one thing, but if you say you don't like Libby's cackling thats straight up misogyny

(or you might just personally hate Libby and want to hurt her feelings)

So from now on phrase your complaints like this:

"I hate Libby's delightful laughter (please note that i am a total cunt) because ..."

[Jo_Culprit]

Libby's laugh sounds more like a giggle to me honestly. Like 'Tee hee I brought my munchbox to work today'

A cackle would be more like 'Kekeke I'll kidnap all of the boxes I want to munch'

So fucking glad to hear comic nerd shit on this show. what a good time
I'm gonna see The killing joke for free cuz I can't pay money for Batgirl fucking her father figure (YES I know this is hypocritical since I watch gay incest porn. sue me). Also wanna try to find the director's cut of BvS to see just how shitty it is.

in other news. Keith did you see the trailers for Wonder Woman and Justice League? I know you don't get excited for things, but these look pretty not terrible



The Flash is the BEST Spider-Man since Spider-Man in Cap 3

So you're not into hetro stuff - doesn't make you hypocrite. You like what you like.

Would you pay to see batman fuck Robin? Of course.

I've always loved hearing the interns' laughter going all the way back to Lucas. It gives the show a weird audience vibe that I find funny. The last couple weeks of shows have been great and I think this 'cackle' has a lot to do with it. :P

Also, I can't believe my first post is to defend someone LAUGHING DURING A COMEDY SHOW.
