MAJOR GHOST TRICK SPOILERS BELOW THE CUT

Self-indulgent-ass content but I felt that the world had a need for some Yomiel programmer humour.

Headcanons/silly thoughts:

(Pre-Temsik)

He uses a light mode IDE for work and keeps his shades on to block out the light. He’s too stubborn to change his settings

He NEVER comments his code. He knows what anything does at a glance so he doesn’t bother, but this has caused a lot of frustration for those he’s worked with

(Post-Temsik)

He makes corny-ass comments/jokes to himself a lot as a result of being alone for so long. Sissel picked that up from him as a mannerism

If he did ever code during those 10 years he would do rubber duck debugging via talking to Sissel

Hi! I hope you're doing well and having a lovely holiday season :)

Sorry if you've already talked about this before, I haven't been following you for a long time - but what do you think of the other series of JFSP apart from series 9?

Personally I love them to bits, I have listened to every episode more than 30 times and they're probably one of my favourite things in the whole world. I just love the humour, the characters, the situations - it feels very safe, no mean spirited jokes, very comforting. The sketches feels very autistic-coded to me as an autistic person, much like Martin from Cabin Pressure - some of the sketches are things I doubt a neurotypical person would notice or comment on from the angle he chooses. Like the geek sketch and the 'friend I'm in the mood for' sketch from series 5.

What are your thoughts on these series?

Thank you for asking, that’s an awesome question!

The basic answer is that I am, of course, a big fan. That said, I’d say that as much as I overall enjoy sketch comedy, I do tend to find it hit or miss; and while JFSP has a higher hit rate than most, and plenty of sketches are fantastic*, it definitely doesn’t get there ALL the time.

*Notable faves- Spooktacular, seashells, reincarnation/past lives, “Stop Saying G’nus,” tricyclist… there are loads and loads more, just off the top of my head! Not to mention the excellent ones you already cited…

The functional difference for me ends up being that while I don’t think there’s a 100% hit rate on Cabin Pressure or Double Acts either, I know that if I pick one episode that I like I will enjoy myself for a full half hour. Because I’m less familiar with a given episode of JFSP given how many there have been and how many sketches are in an episode, I don’t have that same sense of instant “ahhh” from turning on an episode of JFSP* as I would from the other two shows, where a lot of my emotions about it come from knowing it like the back of my hand.

*Major exception- S7E6. A perfect episode of sketch comedy that I can listen to literally whenever. No notes.

This isn’t to say that I don’t really enjoy JFSP! I just wish I could pick off a menu of sketches, not simply because I like some better than others but because I like the feeling of “oooh this” on demand that I get from turning on a favorite half hour episode. I will say- I find JFSP to be PERFECT for things like dental procedures and car trips, where I might be in the chair for anywhere from five minutes to two hours and can just turn on a bunch of sequential episodes for as long as I need. But it doesn’t necessarily have the same immediate impact for me as the episodes I love of the other shows.

That said- some of the best things JF ever wrote are Since You Asked Me sketches. I want them pumped into my veins.

I've also been playing Cult of the Lamb lately. And unfortunately for my project list, I have been struck with the urge to retexture the lamb.

The fleeces would look so good as wings. I have so many ideas.

when u test programs for edge cases, you basically think of the wildest shit you can do with the program and do it and see if it breaks anything. considering that, a law student and a person who tests for edge cases would be the most overpowered duo.

I listened to JFSP S9 again, partly to prep to write a possibly ill-conceived crossover fic but mostly because I just wanted to, and I'm still not over it

There's always something different that gets me, and I think this time it might have been Walter and Vanessa on the train to Lyon and the way that it presages/reflects how they'll (each, and together) deal with Walter's blindness later on
