Nick went absolutely Super Saiyan Lvl 10 when werewolves came out. Tapp walked into the Master's Dojo. I've seen people catch an unintended mistake. I've seen multiple people miss "um actually". But I've never seen someone call out THREE unintended mistakes on the same question, not say "um, actually" on two of them, get the question repeated, and then spot the intended mistake.
I know old WoD has gotten a bit of an iffy feel according to some people with the whole werewolf and wolf can make more werewolves cuz 'zoophilia' and all that. But hey, Werewolves are very much not humans after all.
Um, Actually, Angel doesn’t send you on your mission, as you’re *already on* the quest to find the vault when she contacts you. Hence why you’re already referred to as the Vault Hunter.
@@Ivy01038 Yes, in game terms, but you, as a Vault Hunter are already looking for the Vault. At best, Angel just tells you the general direction to go.

I like the fan questions, because oftentimes they sound like mistakes a person would conceivably make, whereas the normal questions sometimes just seem wrong for the sake of being wrong.
Probably the difference of regular questions being made with the intention of somebody answering it with relative ease. But then the fan questions are basically "how close can we get to being right, without being right". Almost an "average person" vs "diehard fan".
@@NicolasClark7732 The fan question got something wrong, too; Claptrap wasn't a playable character in BL:TPS. It was an entirely different robot of the same model, whose name was Fragtrap.
@@DefensorsPacis No, wasn't it Claptrap? Fragtrap was the class. Promotional material, a joke about stairs in either it or 2, and the DLC for TPS all say they're the same.
@@DefensorsPacis Fragtrap was one of many subroutines running in Claptrap, specifically as a combat module. Also, I don't think he appears in Tales from the Borderlands
@@kerryann9851 Edit: Just checked it's the episode titled, Skaven, Watchmen, The Neverending story.

At one point Nick was really excitedly describing how he use to collect warhammer models and one of the other contestents was like "pft I was buying trainers..." in an honestly derogatory tone (like the sort that is trying to be funny but just comes across as a thinly veiled jab) and there was a Flight of Dragons question and Nick got really excited about actually knowing something kind of obscure and the female contestent said something about having sex rather than focusing on nerd stuff (I honestly can't remember too much of it), basically throwing it in Nick's face. A lot of people pointed out that if the roles had been switched and Nick had said that to a woman who was excited about knowing nerd stuff, it would have been seen as really derogatory but it was 'fine' becaue it was a woman. Basically Nick was great, the other two guests were honestly acting like assholes the entire show.
Um, actually... Tolkien never wrote a santa book, he simply wrote letters to his children from "father christmas" every year, including beautiful watercolor paintings of the north pole and featuring tengwar script. These letters were later compiled into a book, but it was never tolkien's original intent for the letters to be anything more than a game between his children and himself.
i saw this comment before they absolutely crushed that disney song question and figured it was just the dichotomy between her outfit and personality but it got even better!!
Morgoth is only mentioned when Gandalf talks about the Balrog as it was a servant of Morgoth and thus he calls it a "Balrog of Morgoth" but other than that, Morgoth is not mentioned at all in LOTR to my knowledge
Um, actually you can die in Journey but not to the monsters but to cold exposure. During the final stage on the mountain if you dawdle too much you'll freeze to death and restart the level.
Um, actually the femme Doc Oc (Dr. Olivia "Liv" Octavius) in the movie wasn't from the comics, she was inspired by the femme Doc Oc (Lady Octopus) from the comics who is named Carolyn Trainer.
Um actually, Gon, the one who was mentioned as being from Tekken III, is actually just a guest character in Tekken. Gon is originally from his own series of manga. It's an interesting series because there is no dialogue or narration, so it "translates" really well.
Gon was my favourite character in Tekken, even though my brother always beat me, but he was still great. And then one day in my school library (in Brisbane, Australia), I saw Gon on the cover of a book and realised it was his manga. So naturally, the minute they put him on the screen, I recognised him.
When I was in Seattle the airport was packed and because they thought a bunch of people wouldn't make it through security and would miss their flights they had a bunch of us go through the TSA-Pre line and do the minimum security requirements required for it. When I realized they can just get rid of security requirements when said requirements became inconvenient I realized the TSA was absolute bullshit. I had suspected it, but this confirmed it.
It's called a deterrent. Did you decide that police departments were bullshit when you realized you might be able to swipe a candy bar and they might not notice, or that some murders go unsolved? Even when your stuff does go through the full scan they might still miss something. But they also might catch it. Do you think a wannabe terrorist is gonna bring a bomb in their shoe based on the 10% chance they get to go through the pre-check line? I'm not saying every TSA policy is logical but this particular argument is ludicrous.
@@jerodast That's a very selective way of looking at it. We have TSA checkpoints, random bag checks, and other stuff like that on the assumption that we "might" catch a bad guy? Literally the only things that have been successful security measures are reinforced cockpit doors and more air marshals on planes. Everything else is the illusion of security without actually doing anything.
I love it when the contestants nerd out DEEP into lore. Much better than random riffing. Great episode with some serious knowledge drops by, especially, Nick and Erika.
Fun fact, if I remember correctly, Minesweeper was included in all early MS os software packages as a way to teach computer neophytes how to use the right mouse button. I don't recall if it was included with Windows 8, but it wasn't included in Windows 9 or later that I know of.
I love in these episodes seeing someone pop off about something totally unrelated to the question, but it is just so true and interesting that they get a point from it. Truly what nerding is all about.
Um, actually, Noonien Soong didn't specifically say that he got the idea from Asimov, but Tasha Yarr assumed that was where he got the idea. Also, Dr. Soong's great-grandfather, Arik Soong, started working on plans for a sentient android, so it's unclear whether Noonien or Arik made the decision to use positronics to create the neural net.
Also interesting is that Asimov named his 'positronic brain' during a time when science had not decided on what to call what we now call an electron. The competing names were Electron and Positron. The Positronic brain was nothing more than Asimov deciding on what to call an electronic brain before science had.
Um actually, Xvarts in the forgotten realms used to be gnomes and were warped in the Shadowdark by the Famorians into a separate race. Therefore to say that Xvarts are not related to gnomes is incorrect. The correct 'Um Actually' for that answer would be that Xvarts are not from the Underdark.
Umm Actually, I don't remember Liv Octavius being a comic character prior to Spider-verse. There is a female Doc Ock in the comics, but her name is Carolyn Trainer.
Um, actually: - TSA Precheck *does* apply to international _departures_ - Even after you are approved, you are not technically guaranteed to be eligible to use the PreCheck line on every flight - Global Entry only expedites CBP clearance into the US at the point of entry and does not itself apply to physical security of flights; that is covered by PreCheck being included with Global Entry and still does not cover airport security on inbound international flights
You can fall to your death in The Secret of Monkey Island, by falling from the right most section of the rock plateau where you drop the rock onto the seesaw that can knock the banana off the tree on the beech
Um, actually…the Legend of the Vault drew the vault hunters to Pandora. Angel doesn’t make contact with them until after they got off the bus and meet claptrap at Fyrestone. It’s after this point that she helps them.
If Brennan sees this he might lose his mind; as someone else actually got a point for being "technically correct" ,but, "not what we're looking for"...
Um, Actually: doing the TSA-Pre Check SAYS it'll take a shorter amount of time, but in reality it takes the same amount of time as just standing in line normally.
Um actually, the borderlands game set on the moon fixes the gravity problem by letting you powerslam down, dealing tonnes of damage to anything beneath you instead of waiting for floaty gravity to pull you back down. Very fun to move around in that game.
I'll go out on a limb here: Um actually, while Scorpion of the Ultimate universe does appear in Into the Spider-Verse, it is not the same Scorpion that appears in the comic book Ultimate universe.
Um actually into the spider-verse pulls inspiration from the spider-men and spider-verse story’s pulling heavily from the former, the spider-geddon event didn’t happen early enough to inspire spider-verse only having been realeased from September-December 2018 when the movie was released, almost all those spiders existed in some form in the spider-man mythos prior to the spider-verse event
"There are two kinds of people, Oliver and Company people and Aristocats people" *Secret of NIHM people peering down from the rafters and up through the floorboards, gnawing on stolen cheese, waiting for an injured and tired winner for the right moment to unleash the horde. We could take both anytime but it's more entertaining to watch and wait.*
Umm, actually the TSA thing does not apply at all airports, many don't have more than the one security setup, and there are at least 5 major airports that don't even use the TSA as their screening option like San Francisco.
Um, Actually: TSA Pre-check is also something that can be randomly assigned to any ticket; you don't have to apply. If the Internet says I am wrong the Internet is lying because I have personally been randomly assigned pre-check status and neither I nor anyone else in my family has ever applied for it in our lives; I didn't actually know you *could* apply for it.
Um, Actually... depending on when this video was originally released, a werewolf can be created by a human or wolf being bitten. The chances are low, and most die but they are called "the bitten" in the latest release of the game. (Some people may argue that it's the version released by Mind's Eye Theatre but it's still in the White Wolf "universe".)
I love Nick's reaction to the "werewolf" question soooo much, because he's this incredibly talented and handsome actor, who just totally regresses to being his nerdy middle-school self... and that rings so true for me.
"Spiders-Man" is a really creepy and tragic character. Instead of Peter Parker being bitten by *a* spider, he falls into a large container full of mutated spiders, who consume him. Instead of Peter Parker gaining the properties of a spider (and becoming a spider-totem), the spiders gain properties of Peter Parker, namely his intelligence and sense of purpose and identity. So they all collectively believe that they are Peter Parker transformed into a mass of spiders. Eventually, their inherent predatory and non-human instincts begin to win out and they realize they are not and never have been Peter Parker. In an echo of the famous Spider-Man cover, they discard the costume in a trash can. Instead of walking away as Peter Parker, they disperse into the city as individual spiders. However, they each retain the intelligence of Peter Parker and, well, they still might web you up if they catch you committing crimes . . . but what they leave behind for the cops isn't going to get booked into jail, it's going to get outlined in chalk.
Um, technically, it's implied (nearly explicit) that you die at the end of Journey (the whole tombstone beginning and cyclical nature of the game). Though it is up to interpretation.
Um, Actually, Doctor Olivia Octavius does not appear in either of the two Spider-Man comics mentioned, and was created independently specifically for the movie.
Um actually; not all the characters in Into the Spider-Verse have the same names as their Spider-Verse and Spider-Geddon counterparts, as Spider-Gwen's in-universe name in the film is Spider-Woman, whereas in the comics it is Ghost Spider.
Um Actually, Olivia Octavius (Spiderverses' Doc Oc) is not in the comics. Although she is an alternate reality version of Doc Ock, they still count as separate characters imho
Um, actually, you said that Gon the little dinosaur was from Tekken 3 & his own video game. While he was in those, Gon is originally a Japanese manga series created by Masashi Tanaka back in 1991. Gon then appeared in his own SNES game in 1994 & in Tekken 3 for Playstation in 1998. Gon also has an animated tv series from 2012 that was on Netflix at one time.
5:27 Umm, actually! "Xvarts were once gnomes. They were captured by fomorians and enslaved in the Shadowdark. Over many generations the creatures were warped by fell magic and slowly began to adapt to their surroundings".
Um Actually, in Fez not only can you die from falling off cliffs but also touching corrupted parts in the world and when touching lava/other deadly liquids irregardless of falling. Also in Journey you can still technically die but only when finishing the game.
Xvart may actually be gnomes, though it sounds more like in lore they were in the Shadowfell, not the Underdark, captured by Fomorians and such, but it's also a different cosmology with Baldur's Gate, seemingly. But there's an extra correction: they are a gnome subrace, seemingly, or something similar, but they're not from the Underdark.
Um, actually, according to Volo's Guide to Monsters, xvarts are not related to gnomes at all, but are identical replicas of a minor god named Raxivort who stole an artifact from Asmodeus and created the xvarts to mislead devils sent to find him and reclaim the artifact. The fact that they aren't from the Underdark is correct. I just went and checked the aforementioned sourcebook for this, and I know it will soon be superseded by Monsters of the Multiverse, but it seems xvarts will be included in that compendium and I don't imagine that Wizards of the Coast will change anything about them.
I was dying during the Disney section. I played that game as a kid against my sisters. I didnt get them all but was shocked how they didnt get Oliver or Pocahontas
Definitely grew up reading the Father Christmas Letters from Tolkien. Between the battles with goblins and the polar bear antics it’s amazing children get presents at all.
Well, Trapp, yes, people play Minesweeper. It does not come with any Windows packages that I'm aware of, but versions are available through the Microsoft store. There are also some very interesting VR minesweeper games, one of which is indeed a 3 dimensional grid, meaning you have to match in 26 directions, each face, vertex, and corner.
Jenny's top matches the stripes behind her and I can't decide if I think it was on purpose or not. On one hand... yeah it's gotta be, that would be too much of a coincidence right? But like, what if?

Um actually, Xvarts in the forgotten realms used to be gnomes and were warped in the Shadowdark by the Famorians into a separate race. Therefore to say that Xvarts are not related to gnomes is incorrect. The correct 'Um Actually' for that answer would be that Xvarts are not from the Underdark.
The gon freaks inclusion was underrated and overlooked too fast
Gon Freecss
Umm Actually, I don't remember Liv Octavius being a comic character prior to Spider-verse. There is a female Doc Ock in the comics, but her name is Carolyn Trainer.
You can send it to their twitter 🙂 then they might include it next time
And Spider-Geddon was released around the time the film Spider-Verse came out so it's unlikely to be an inspiration source.
@@Music_Engineering This is a really old episode, so hopefully someone already corrected them when it initially streamed on Dropout.
I thought he was just saying the alt Spider-Mans were in those comics, not every character in the movie
There's also an alternate universe version of Otto Octavius called Octavia Otto. She's a good person.
Man, you can’t just tease me with a Jade Empire reference right off the bat and not follow through. Such an overlooked gem
Um, actually:
- TSA Precheck *does* apply to international _departures_
- Even after you are approved, you are not technically guaranteed to be eligible to use the PreCheck line on every flight
- Global Entry only expedites CBP clearance into the US at the point of entry and does not itself apply to physical security of flights; that is covered by PreCheck being included with Global Entry and still does not cover airport security on inbound international flights
Yep, was looking for this.
You can fall to your death in The Secret of Monkey Island, by falling from the right most section of the rock plateau where you drop the rock onto the seesaw that can knock the banana off the tree on the beech
Came here to say this, lol
I’m super surprised no one’s mentioned this, but um actually, TSA PreCheck applies to ALL flights with a domestic origin regardless of destination
Um, actually…the Legend of the Vault drew the vault hunters to Pandora. Angel doesn’t make contact with them until after they got off the bus and meet claptrap at Fyrestone. It’s after this point that she helps them.
Sorry I replied that to the wrong thread. Deleted.
If Brennan sees this he might lose his mind; as someone else actually got a point for being "technically correct" ,but, "not what we're looking for"...
Um, Actually: doing the TSA-Pre Check SAYS it'll take a shorter amount of time, but in reality it takes the same amount of time as just standing in line normally.
Depends on the airport and the time of day; I've definitely sped past those in the standard security lines by going precheck
Um, actually you don't need an interview for TSA PreCheck, just the application materials and a set of fingerprints for the background check.
Um actually, the borderlands game set on the moon fixes the gravity problem by letting you powerslam down, dealing tonnes of damage to anything beneath you instead of waiting for floaty gravity to pull you back down. Very fun to move around in that game.
I'll go out on a limb here: Um actually, while Scorpion of the Ultimate universe does appear in Into the Spider-Verse, it is not the same Scorpion that appears in the comic book Ultimate universe.
I love the episodes with Erika. She's so fun.
It's time to get off RUclips, Erika's mom.
I think Erika goes by non-binary pronouns. They/them.
@@markaaronneuman1617 their current bio has it as she/they i think
@@memory_bones thanks for the correction!
@@markaaronneuman1617 ya, no worries :D
Um actually into the spider-verse pulls inspiration from the spider-men and spider-verse story’s pulling heavily from the former, the spider-geddon event didn’t happen early enough to inspire spider-verse only having been realeased from September-December 2018 when the movie was released, almost all those spiders existed in some form in the spider-man mythos prior to the spider-verse event
"There are two kinds of people, Oliver and Company people and Aristocats people"
*Secret of NIHM people peering down from the rafters and up through the floorboards, gnawing on stolen cheese, waiting for an injured and tired winner for the right moment to unleash the horde. We could take both anytime but it's more entertaining to watch and wait.*
Holy shit Nick going off on the World of Darkness question was a sight to behold, what a man.
The moment the SoTC Map showed up I lost my mind.
One of the best games I ever played
Idk why but the child in me seeing a Zorgon from Zathura made me so happy. Zathura was one of my favorite movies as a kid
I love Nick's passion for the stuff he knows well.
Um, actually, Man Spider is a costume Danny Devito's character in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia wears.
Umm, actually the TSA thing does not apply at all airports, many don't have more than the one security setup, and there are at least 5 major airports that don't even use the TSA as their screening option like San Francisco.
Um, Actually: TSA Pre-check is also something that can be randomly assigned to any ticket; you don't have to apply. If the Internet says I am wrong the Internet is lying because I have personally been randomly assigned pre-check status and neither I nor anyone else in my family has ever applied for it in our lives; I didn't actually know you *could* apply for it.
Um, Actually... depending on when this video was originally released, a werewolf can be created by a human or wolf being bitten. The chances are low, and most die but they are called "the bitten" in the latest release of the game. (Some people may argue that it's the version released by Mind's Eye Theatre but it's still in the White Wolf "universe".)
I'm just happy to finally know who wrote my favorite college humor sketch. I watch the elf one at least once a month.
The fact that it’s Gon in 60 seconds and they didn’t even get Gon. 💀
Actually killed a part of my soul 😅
I love Nick's reaction to the "werewolf" question soooo much, because he's this incredibly talented and handsome actor, who just totally regresses to being his nerdy middle-school self... and that rings so true for me.
um actually, figwit and Lindir are different characters, as stated by the actor.
This needs to be in the next episode.
Just today, I literally googled
''lotr THAT one backround elf''
And it showed me figwit :DD
Your Telario sketch is absolutely amazing and I'm glad you plugged it even if you didn't name it specifically.
Trapp keeps getting better & better as a host! Also great to see the contestants not being stumped so much. :)
Erika is so stunning. I am subscribed to dropout but I love that these are getting reuploaded on RUclips. I always watch them again
"Spiders-Man" is a really creepy and tragic character. Instead of Peter Parker being bitten by *a* spider, he falls into a large container full of mutated spiders, who consume him. Instead of Peter Parker gaining the properties of a spider (and becoming a spider-totem), the spiders gain properties of Peter Parker, namely his intelligence and sense of purpose and identity. So they all collectively believe that they are Peter Parker transformed into a mass of spiders.
Eventually, their inherent predatory and non-human instincts begin to win out and they realize they are not and never have been Peter Parker. In an echo of the famous Spider-Man cover, they discard the costume in a trash can. Instead of walking away as Peter Parker, they disperse into the city as individual spiders. However, they each retain the intelligence of Peter Parker and, well, they still might web you up if they catch you committing crimes . . . but what they leave behind for the cops isn't going to get booked into jail, it's going to get outlined in chalk.
I love that Jenny’s sweater matches the backdrop so well
Um, technically, it's implied (nearly explicit) that you die at the end of Journey (the whole tombstone beginning and cyclical nature of the game). Though it is up to interpretation.
Um, Actually, Doctor Olivia Octavius does not appear in either of the two Spider-Man comics mentioned, and was created independently specifically for the movie.
Erika is always so energised and fun.
Um actually; not all the characters in Into the Spider-Verse have the same names as their Spider-Verse and Spider-Geddon counterparts, as Spider-Gwen's in-universe name in the film is Spider-Woman, whereas in the comics it is Ghost Spider.
I sincerely appreciate the level of world of darkness knowledge going on in this episode
Bionicle references? In Um Actually?! I’m so happy!!!!
Um Actually, Olivia Octavius (Spiderverses' Doc Oc) is not in the comics. Although she is an alternate reality version of Doc Ock, they still count as separate characters imho
I came here to say this. You beat me to it.
Um, actually, you said that Gon the little dinosaur was from Tekken 3 & his own video game. While he was in those, Gon is originally a Japanese manga series created by Masashi Tanaka back in 1991. Gon then appeared in his own SNES game in 1994 & in Tekken 3 for Playstation in 1998. Gon also has an animated tv series from 2012 that was on Netflix at one time.
um actually, that plot of the aristocats is actually the plot of "Garfield: A Tale Of 2 Kitties."
The "Moon" Borderlands was the only one I played all the way through. You get vehicles immediately, I never thought of it as slow.
Erica has a perfect sense of style and a nerd cred to match.
9:58 crazy how they got the easiest one wrong, his name is literally Gon
5:27 Umm, actually! "Xvarts were once gnomes. They were captured by fomorians and enslaved in the Shadowdark. Over many generations the creatures were warped by fell magic and slowly began to adapt to their surroundings".
Um Actually, in Fez not only can you die from falling off cliffs but also touching corrupted parts in the world and when touching lava/other deadly liquids irregardless of falling. Also in Journey you can still technically die but only when finishing the game.
This episode was actually so good
Loved the Werewolf question. So often WTA is forgotten. Good job guys!
That was amazing. I think Nick IS a werewolf so...
this video reminded me to apply for TSA pre-check
Xvart may actually be gnomes, though it sounds more like in lore they were in the Shadowfell, not the Underdark, captured by Fomorians and such, but it's also a different cosmology with Baldur's Gate, seemingly. But there's an extra correction: they are a gnome subrace, seemingly, or something similar, but they're not from the Underdark.
Um, actually, according to Volo's Guide to Monsters, xvarts are not related to gnomes at all, but are identical replicas of a minor god named Raxivort who stole an artifact from Asmodeus and created the xvarts to mislead devils sent to find him and reclaim the artifact. The fact that they aren't from the Underdark is correct.
I just went and checked the aforementioned sourcebook for this, and I know it will soon be superseded by Monsters of the Multiverse, but it seems xvarts will be included in that compendium and I don't imagine that Wizards of the Coast will change anything about them.
@Theodore MacAulay I didn't know that, thanks for enlightening me!
23:50 ish "Proudicer: 'They didn't say um actually" well, neither did any of the contestants including the score leader at this time.
Man, I loved that lore dump from Nick XD Mah man is passionate :P
I've been playing a campaign of W20 for the last few months so that prompt hurt me. haha. I loved how on it he was.
I was dying during the Disney section. I played that game as a kid against my sisters. I didnt get them all but was shocked how they didnt get Oliver or Pocahontas
Definitely grew up reading the Father Christmas Letters from Tolkien. Between the battles with goblins and the polar bear antics it’s amazing children get presents at all.
You might even call it a Christmas Miracle
"that's just Gon" idk why but that fucking killed me
Well, Trapp, yes, people play Minesweeper. It does not come with any Windows packages that I'm aware of, but versions are available through the Microsoft store. There are also some very interesting VR minesweeper games, one of which is indeed a 3 dimensional grid, meaning you have to match in 26 directions, each face, vertex, and corner.
31:11 um, actually that's not a valid minesweeper screen, the 6 only has 5 available spaces for bombs around it
Derro aren't inherintly related to dwarves, last I checked, they just look dwarflike, but even Druegar don't even consider them related
This. Derro actually degenerated from humans, not dwarves.
@@pozatat Duergar sounds correct.
I didn't know um actually have their own channel now! Have i watched all of these in drop out? Yes. Will i watch them again, you bet!
Jenny's top matches the stripes behind her and I can't decide if I think it was on purpose or not. On one hand... yeah it's gotta be, that would be too much of a coincidence right? But like, what if?
Every single one of them said Oregon wrong and it physically hurt me...
