EPISODE 357: Passive Swimcome

Late to the party but the company I work at (kids party business) has a partnership with swimply. One of the things we do is send performers in mermaid tails to people's houses to swim in their pools with kids, so we have a deal where if people book with both us and swimply they get a discount. Literally no one has ever utilised this deal afaik.

Delighted to find out in November 2019, Swimply expanded to Australia. Now I can get sucked off in Dave Hughes pool.

as a one-time Quebec swimply user there is nothing more strange and yet more compelling than swimming in the backyard in-ground pool of an upper middle class French Canadian family

I once saw someone on LinkedIn say “After 2 incredible, intense and magical years with Swimply,”

Roland Crosby

What is the difference between chicken nuggets and boneless chicken wings? This is hell we have by living in a world created and run by lawyers

Tom

Looking it up axolotol pronunciation and found a Reddit post “AITA for using the ‘racist’ pronunciation of a word unknowingly?” all about this

Tim Graham

That implies their is a difference between Ohio and Tennessee.

Mark Hardgrove

It's the Nahuatl pronunciation! I think it's really neat that there's an Aztec word floating around in common English vernacular.

Connor Hoover

I can't find anything online that agrees with you but I'm willing to take this fully to heart and change how I say it permanently

Boonta Vista

Axolotls are “pedo-morphic” because they are essentially stuck in a juvenile phase which is what gives them their distinctive frilly gills. Other amphibians have them but as they mature they go away. Axolotls have them their whole lives. Also on the topic of amphibians, check out the chinese giant salamander if you are not familiar. Absolutely ridiculous creature.

I went on to "Swimply" and found among the listings near me "Club Emerald" which is a pool in someone's back yard guarded by two stone lions that I could rent for $100/hr (American)

I felt incredibly targeted with "two 7% beers, a takeaway pizza and playing the Last of Us for the first time". This is narrowcasting. In fact, this is bullying.

Ben you mentioned Total Annihilation, and on the off chance that you enjoyed that game as much as I did there's a modern remake/spiritual sequel called Beyond All Reason which is great if you want to make a few thousand robots blast each other to pieces.

And then you watch retro computer youtubers who have whole shelves of physical package games that the publishers will never let you have again because they can't figure out how to make 200% profit on them. *shakes fist at cloud*

SpookyPenguin

nooooo

Ben nooooo the Switch version of Control is the cloud streaming version, you need an internet connection the whole time you play it
