During the first round I genuinely thought that they were all doing something to keep them from reading lips or looking at the other team. I only noticed the gag when pat pulled out Borat after Joker 😂😂
Civet is the animal that poops special coffee. Serval is the animal they crossbreed with domestic cats to get the insanely expensive “savannah cat” pet breed.
@@timma_thy Hi, just another correction. Civets aren't cats. They are feliforms (cat-like carnivores), but they're not felinae (domestic cats, cheetahs, servals, etc) or pantherinae (dem big cats).
@@collin4555 throughout my life I always imagined a mongoose being a goose like animal that was monstrous in some way, and never decided to actually look it up and be disappointed.
the wildest thing to me is that both pat and jenna knew that they made coffee out of animal poop, but just assumed that it was serval poop for no reason
Well there is: "according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. It's wings are too small to get it's fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway, because bees don't care what humans think is possible."
When I saw Simone holding up her phone while both of her teammates read in the intro.... I thought they both had a copy of a Hemingway book and were teasing here, despite their limited time XD
"is there such thing as a bee monologue?" look me in the eye and tell me that the phrase "according to all known laws of aviation" does not strike fear and pollen deep into your heart, jenna
No one is going to mention Clayton giving three clues that gave 0 miscommunications, while having the enemy team fail to guess a single word in a round between the two interceptions. That's some masterful encrypting.
I love how intently Pat looks at his book. 8:12 Simone's phone locking 😭 35:24 "I was gonna say the same thing, but for no reason, but I feel it." 42:10 Pat, offbrand Thwomp I would've loved to see the second round go to a draw. Would've been great to see y'all guess the words. Great video :)
Every Overboard feels like a parasocial encounter. There are a bunch of coworkers/friends having a fun time and then there is the audience going like, “Oh, Old Lewd Simone! Classic.” I feel like a mute friend.
Indeed. It's hilarious to watch them play though, and it inspires me to actually do it myself. I need to organise a game night or something! Absolutely itching to play more games after binging this series!
Clayton reading John Brown bio hell yesss! “I have only a short time to live, only one death to die, and I will die fighting for this cause. There will be no peace in this land until slavery is done for. “- John Brown
The re-occurring gag of everyone reading books whilst waiting for the other team to deliberate was really funny and cute to me for some reason. Keep it up Polygon! Overboard content always makes me smile. :D
Servals are African wildcats with very long legs and huge ears, they can jump super high. The wild feline that eats the coffee is a civet, not a serval.
Alanah rocking a Liverpool jersey! This season has been an absolute nightmare. I can't wait for it to end and for everyone to come back mentally refreshed next season.
You ever see this guy that rides his bike and plays video games on Twitch in the mornings? He's a riot. Can't think of his name right now. Brian something? Anyway, he'd be a great guest to have on the show some day.
Our family played this game, and me and my brother were on one team, and even tho I got a miscommunication token from his hints (which sucked), it didn’t matter, as THE OTHER TEAM GOT ALL OF HIS HINTS CORRECT THAT HE SAID. And that’s how we hate each other
I was not aware that Simone spilled on her bed often (as someone that uses my bed as a chair, I do too) so I was wondering all through the practice round why Simone's coworkers knew what her mattress looked like.
I was marathoning old Polygon streams last month and it seems like every other one starts with Simone having just spilled coffee or water on the couch. I just remember thinking about how stained that couch must have been.
Always a like and a comment on every Overboard video because I am desperate for more Also I feel strongly that BDG should make a guest appearance just to play this game because he'd kill it
I'm pretty sure the author of that Doom novelization also wrote a Star Trek: DS9 novel that included a scene in which Quark and Odo repeat the famous dialogue from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" as one of them prepares to launch the other out an airlock (it makes sense in context - the airlock launch, that is, not the dialogue).
the way that pat doesn't know basic algebra... but he does know enough about video games and action movies to decode jeff's incredible set of clues. godspeed sir
INFORMAL POLL: If YOU saw Iago as a clue, would you think Aladdin or Othello????
Think Aladdin, assume Othello
Othello. I was in the kid choir for the opera years ago. (edit: i didn't know any of the words lol) (edit: dang i didn't know edits take away creator hearts)
First Aladdin, then maybe Othello, while feeling dumb for forgetting about Othello.
Aladdin, clearly I am not cultured
Yes
oh my god i can't believe that Alannah cracked a joke that her team didn't catch, and Simone came up with a completely different joke on the fly.
absolutely obsessed with Jenna pulling out knitting and pat getting the joker script. The chaos energy in this video is both on brand and incredible.
All the visual gags were excellent! My favorite might be Josh flipping a multitool like a butterfly knife.
During the first round I genuinely thought that they were all doing something to keep them from reading lips or looking at the other team. I only noticed the gag when pat pulled out Borat after Joker 😂😂
So we just gonna gloss over Simone saying “monologue, like one log, that’s camping”
Pat double fisting joker and Borat at the same time has me SCREAMING
I love/hate this wording
I was about this comment this. Word for word.
I just started the video, I am so fucking confused
Now there's a fun mental image
im BEGGING you to word it any other way
Civet is the animal that poops special coffee.
Serval is the animal they crossbreed with domestic cats to get the insanely expensive “savannah cat” pet breed.
I knew I wasn't crazy for thinking the coffee poop animal wasn't a cat
@@collin4555 civet is a cat, but it's not a serval cat
@@timma_thy Hi, just another correction. Civets aren't cats. They are feliforms (cat-like carnivores), but they're not felinae (domestic cats, cheetahs, servals, etc) or pantherinae (dem big cats).
@@timma_thy as much a cat as a hyena or mongoose is
@@collin4555 throughout my life I always imagined a mongoose being a goose like animal that was monstrous in some way, and never decided to actually look it up and be disappointed.
I appreciate that in post Clayton corrected Simone assuming servals were endangered but not Pat confusing them for civets.
very on brand
the wildest thing to me is that both pat and jenna knew that they made coffee out of animal poop, but just assumed that it was serval poop for no reason
new polygon merch that just says: "gift, word, mouth, whatever" in the typical "live, laugh, love" font
,, please
yes, please.
i know he isn’t really new anymore, but i’m so glad josh is working for polygon, he’s such a good addition :)
absolutely losing it at “Is there such a thing as a bee monologue?”
Well there is: "according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. It's wings are too small to get it's fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway, because bees don't care what humans think is possible."
I absolutely thought it was "to bee or not to bee"
beggining of the bee movie
@@Rachel-xf3op SAME
Is eric the half a bee half a monologue?
23:58 the synchronization.. pure teamwork right here
I didn't catch that, but it's sooo perfect
contrasted with 41:40
Beautiful.
Smart of Polygon to release a video featuring Josh a day after the big Josh fight.
what was the big Josh fight?
@@jjjm7322 theres a lot of streams on youtube! look it up! it was great and i absolutely love who won.
@@jjjm7322 A meme event that happened in Lincoln, Nebraska. Search for "Josh Swain".
i wonder what Josh Rios' new name is
So we know he's okay
I cannot believe that Clayton just asked if Iago was Frankenstein's "helper guy"
I'm so upset that nobody was able to call him out on that. I was screaming at the screen!
I especially love the part where that was Clayton
@@Giga-lemesh lol whoops you are correct
@@samanthalaine8064 hahaha, oopsie
I yelled lol
“You can’t win, but you can still lose” iconic
i want to embroider this quote honestly
A perfect summation of my philosophy on life.
Jenna and Pat syncing perfectly on the words "shape. Slope? Yeah." was a wonderful moment in time
polygon's legit the best group of creators i can think of
hey delete this
@@polygon oh ok you sure? was just trying to be nice
@@SecretBaseSBN I think it was sarcasm, like "bestie I can't deal with this compliment, delete this hahah"
HEY I SEE WHAT YOU DID
@@SecretBaseSBN I DEMAND THAT YOU SPEAK:
WHAT DID IT SAY?
When I saw Simone holding up her phone while both of her teammates read in the intro.... I thought they both had a copy of a Hemingway book and were teasing here, despite their limited time XD
Josh putting the book on his head and making an action figure wave at the camera made me laugh
Simone was a drummer in a goth band? She just gets cooler and cooler.
I heard golf band and was very confused
can we just stop for a moment and appreciate the job the editor did here
That's our very own brilliant Clayton Ashley
@@polygon Clayton runs the Polygon youtube account confirmed.
They were thinking about civets when they were talking about servals coffee and poop.
oh NO
Me, squinting: how is camping under intent? Camping.... inte- OH!
@@klnsradieschen Sure! It's just because the word "intent" sounds similar to "in tents," which is where you'd be if you were camping :)
@@klnsradieschen No problem! I didn't get it at first either haha
And yet again I've been defeated by a pun!
"is there such thing as a bee monologue?" look me in the eye and tell me that the phrase "according to all known laws of aviation" does not strike fear and pollen deep into your heart, jenna
I was SO sure that "bee" was a clever misdirect-spelling referring to Hamlet's soliloquy.
I was sure it meant "spelling bee"
Simone release recordings of her goth band challenge
Where👏is👏the👏album?👏
ohhhh i thought she said golf band and got so incredibly intrigued
The visual gags were top notch. Love this energy.
Decrypto is what I call bullying the Bitcoin guy at my work
I love Pat reading Joker and Borat simultaneously. Thank you Pat.
"shape? slope? yeah." - jenna and pat at the same time (24:00)
Always ready for an Overboard episode!
Also, the description talking about them rubbing their two brain cells together
This was a lot of fun! Also Simone's eyeliner is ON POINT
No one is going to mention Clayton giving three clues that gave 0 miscommunications, while having the enemy team fail to guess a single word in a round between the two interceptions. That's some masterful encrypting.
I think Pat is talking about Jamie Dornan in the Gal Gadot Imagine video. I had to go and look.
me, screaming: YOU ARE CAMPING BECAUSE YOU ARE *IN TENT*
camping was genius and it made me scream that they didnt get it
I love how intently Pat looks at his book.
8:12 Simone's phone locking 😭
35:24 "I was gonna say the same thing, but for no reason, but I feel it."
42:10 Pat, offbrand Thwomp
I would've loved to see the second round go to a draw. Would've been great to see y'all guess the words.
Great video :)

Very much this. I do miss playing board games with my friends
Indeed. It's hilarious to watch them play though, and it inspires me to actually do it myself. I need to organise a game night or something! Absolutely itching to play more games after binging this series!
"Why look a gift horse in the word" Lol.
Clayton reading John Brown bio hell yesss!
“I have only a short time to live, only one death to die, and I will die fighting for this cause. There will be no peace in this land until slavery is done for. “- John Brown
I feel so genuinely close to these people. I'm a bit drunk but was very touched to see them talking.
Clayton’s editing keeps getting better and better. This series is so enjoyable!
The re-occurring gag of everyone reading books whilst waiting for the other team to deliberate was really funny and cute to me for some reason. Keep it up Polygon! Overboard content always makes me smile. :D
Servals are African wildcats with very long legs and huge ears, they can jump super high. The wild feline that eats the coffee is a civet, not a serval.
This is so well edited, it must have taken years; thank you so much!
I've been randomly burning through these this weekend. Glad to see a new one to move to.
The end of Coup really was epic and BDG face for Mac and Cheese was mythical.
Here for this dope boardgame content.
The fact Jenna's new outro is honka honka gives me life
Genuinely appreciate her commitment to the bit despite how she's not even Polygon's resident clown girl
I can’t hear the word sculpture without bug. Sculpture bug!
#sculpturebug!
I was screaming AGE OF REASON so loud... LOL
the coordination at 23:59 !!! immaculate
I gotta say, Simone's lighting game is on point, she looks fantastic in her camera!
When Pat made the Smash Bros / Fast and Furious connection, the music from Phoenix Wright started playing in my head automatically
i love that whoever captioned 4:47 felt the need to drag simone
I was SO CONVINCED that "Bee" was a reference Hamlet's soliloquy... "To be(e) or not to be(e)"...
23:59 that synchronicity though
Hey! Been missing Alanah around Funhaus' channel, happy to see her hanging out here 😁
Its okay Clayton I was yelling "AGE OF REASON!!" at my screen over and over again I got you
i think claytons age of reason and bee pheromones clues were extremely valid and understandable, we love a nerd
Alanah rocking a Liverpool jersey! This season has been an absolute nightmare. I can't wait for it to end and for everyone to come back mentally refreshed next season.

At 3:44 and 3:51 when you couldn't figure out what Pat and Alana were saying, they were saying Gal Gadot lol
26:40 Pat simultaneously reading both the Borat and Joker scripts feels peek chaos to me
My favourite Polygon content! Love me some Overboard
I immediately started yelling at my screen 'You camp in tents!' I understand you Alannah.
them thinking its chicken and that actually working for delicious is hilarious
Simone’s face when they associate Iago with Aladdin and “Frankenstein’s helper guy” is priceless
Ah yes, Bourgeoisie species: spiel serval. My favorite talking animal.
I love Overboard so damn much. Even ones where I only understand the game half way through...
Pat and Jenna being on the very same wavelengths in 23:59 with "Shape... Slope? Yeah."
"uploaded: four minutes ago" WELP I know what I'm doing with my next three-quarters of an hour
The time occupying implements of the non-discussing team are all very on-brand.
Another great video from the Polygon gang! Also, Simone I really loved your make-up! You are always a fashionable icon!!
polygons series overboard my beloved
the red outline always confuses me, i really be questioning why I don’t remember watching the video at all
I like how neither of the clues assigned to “serval” actually have anything to do with servals
There's a lot of ~interesting synergy~ in this video.
Reading a book series for lore on a shooter series... BDG flashbacks
@16:23 don't clayton. your clue was amazing. I got it right away. Your guesser dropped the ball here.
Our family played this game, and me and my brother were on one team, and even tho I got a miscommunication token from his hints (which sucked), it didn’t matter, as THE OTHER TEAM GOT ALL OF HIS HINTS CORRECT THAT HE SAID. And that’s how we hate each other
These are so great but I can't wait for you all to get back to in-person!
I came for the chat and energy, stayed for the boardgame
“Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for Polygon to keep doing unraveled”
the camping clue for intent was amazing and i'm so sad they didn't get it
revisiting this video after however many years, just realized 23:58 pat and jenna jinxing 3 times in a row is insane
I was not aware that Simone spilled on her bed often (as someone that uses my bed as a chair, I do too) so I was wondering all through the practice round why Simone's coworkers knew what her mattress looked like.

Yes! I've been craving some Overboard :D
overboard is pure visual therapy
“Ooooh I was gonna say the same thing, but for no reason” 🤣

"well, it's technically geometry...." this is so dumb. i love patrick gill
Pat dual-wielding Joker and Borat is incredible
This was delightful! Really enjoyed it!
Pat reading the Joker novelization and Jenna knitting is GOD TIER comedy
DUAL WIELDING JOKER AND BORAT
Correction: the critter that eats the coffee beans is a civet not a serval. And while they ARE called civet cats, they are not actually cats at all
As a long-time U2 fan I definitely would have lost with the Zoo and the Station being there. :D
Simone looks so good in this (either brilliant foundation choice or her skin is just glowing) and I don't know what to do with myself now.
While it may be bc my Adderall hasn't kicked in yet, this is a very hard game to understand and I think if I tried to play it myself I'd be screwed
Maybe try codenames. Similar energy but less brain needed.
Neurotypical here. It is indeed complicated in the 1st place, and I think the video presented too much information at a time. Don't sweat it.
