Monikers || AFK 2023-05-17 

ben saying "last time i had to do a nazi salute" into immediately having to mime using a fleshlight is very funny

In Serge's defense, the gang did go see Hootie & The Blowfish in concert on an episode of Friends so he's not wrong with the Friends connection. They just didn't write the theme song.

36:00 I gotcha, Jacob. I recognized that LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE PIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIECE from the College Humour sketch immediately.

Everything you want from an LLR Monikers, Ian being both insane and ingenuous, Serge being too pure for this world, and Ben taking a bullet and doing something he'll likely regret on camera to get a point in a game they barely tracked points for!

1:44:26 had me in tears! "Before Pickle that lives in the ocean!"

I'm always happy to see Jacob "Mr. Competitive" "Table Humper" Burgess. He called Kirby a Pink Fucker as I was typing this comment xD

Christ I want to see Adam, Wheeler, and Andy playing this.

1:42:59 Serge once again proving that he's the cinnamon roll that needs everything explained to him. 😆

Ian, Jacob, Graham AND ALEX... Oh this gonna be gooooood.

Timestamps if you want to go back and find your favorite part: *Game 1* Round 1: 9:15 Sergebacca: 10:20 Made up just for this game: 21:06 Round 2 (one word): 24:28 Round 3 (charades): 39:09 Serge as a clue: 45:12 Last time Ben had to do this...: 46:10 Consensual whamjangling: 50:40 *Game 2* Round 1: 52:46 Kranch & Glasses Exchange: 54:00 Just for you and solves crime: 55:53 Round 2 (one word): 1:09:31 Round 3 (charades): 1:23:14 *Game 3* Round 1: 1:35:27 Serge is too pure for this world: 1:41:54 Before pickle: 1:44:24 Round 2 (one word): 1:49:05 No, I'm good: 2:21:53 Round 3 (charades): 2:04:59

I knew this would be a banger just from the thumbnail but my expectations were exceeded. "....but it's just for you and it solves crimes" I CANNOT WTF IAN.

Loving Ben’s vibes as he says “I hope I don’t have to heil Hitler” and then immediately draws flesh light and thinks “Is this better?”

This and What On Earth Are You Talking About are some of my favorite recent content.

Can’t wait for most of this to make the highlight reel.

10:22 made me cry when i watched this live.

Tetris God "Line" was a dead on impression good job

The best part of Monikers is the amount of clips that we get to see again on the Highlight Reel later

I'm beginning to understand Ian's first round clues, this is a troubling sign =)

1:46:30 Worth noting that Shut Up & Sit Down have written a couple expansions for Monikers, the Nonsense Box and Serious Nonsense. You must be playing with one.

1:27:23 Jacob I feel you on the censoring for the gentiles lmao

Jacob's back-to-back pointing at Serge killed me, I'm writing this from beyond the grave

Yes! Monikers with Jacob brings warmth to my cold, dead heart ❤

I need that GIF of Ben for reasons.

I will stand with Ian and say that "like a penis but just for you and it solves crime" is a great clue

I'm sure there would be a point where you streamed this game *too often*, but right now I'd be thrilled to see this as a monthly or even weekly event, schedules allowing. They're so good!

2:03:10 No Ian, I think you will find that the lowest of maths is counting.

Jacob has a God given gift for charades. And he has given that gift back to us.

The double Serge was incredible

46:22 The reason why our "neck tubes" are arranged that way is a evolutionary advantage. It is what allows us to have enough control and range of our sounds that we can speak. Without it, we most likely, would never have developed an auditory language.

I like to refer to hooting mandrills and gurmag angler collectively as Hooty and The Blowfish

These streams are always delightful for perking me up after work, love y'alls energy with this game.

Jacob been working out. Those pythons are getting ripped!

1:29:47 Ben's Billy-mouthed Bass got me so frigging good edit: *Big Mouth Billy Bass 🙈

Needs more SECRET BONUS ROUND BLUE CARDS from the Serious Nonsense box!!

I love watching Grahams face as he processes the 1 word round. Someone says a word, and according to his face, it changes his entire world-view.

I keep coming back to the Monikers streams, because it's like playing a game with friends.

"Buff Jesus was the original CrossFit" is such a good joke.

Ian and Alex on Monikers! Lordy, we have been blessed 🙏

Looking forward to hearing how 'Full-Contact Reiki' will get advertised or reported on in QWERPline. XD

10:50 in and im trying not to laugh out loud in public. I'm going to blow a gasket.

Okay, good. This got uploaded yesterday and yoinked while I was midwatch.

Watched the VOD today. This is a good one. Rarely had this much fun watching.

I will never not think of this as "The Bowl Game" because that's what we used to call it, we'd move prompts we'd written down from one bowl to the other between rounds as the teams got them!

Monikers and Drink More Gluurp are two of the most highlight-generating streams I've seen. I had to get up and move five times just to calm down

I bought this the last time I watched it played here! I also found out, upon describing it to my friends, that one of them has a family game that plays the exact same except instead of a deck they pick someone to contribute a themed set of folded up slips to a hat. Very neat!

51:21 While Wild Kingdom was a nature show, it was presented by Mutual of Omaha for some reason. It's gone through something like four incarnations and is currently airing as a YT web series.

1:54:49 Ben's quick ace-wit here, ahaha

I didn’t guess line piece from “LINE” but I did get the reference once Jacob mentioned it. I haven’t thought of that video in years

Ian should write cryptic crossword clues, based on 58:12

The Last Supper thumbnail is a masterpiece. I missed it the first watch through.

1:56:20 “Ball” This one has to be my favourite of the one word rounds.

I learned this as a theater game under a different name, and without the premade deck, it's cool to see it as a proper thing

Good enough to watch at 1X on main screen. :)

my fave strategy, which only works for some cards, for one word round, is to repeat a word to the tune of a song

So glad this is becoming a regular thing, so much fun to watch. Went out and bought a copy of the game.

I could watch you guys play monikers every day!

More Monikers content? Yes please!

The reason Lunk has the cheese wheel of courage is because he's lactose intolerant

Grant's reaction to Urfeethra was my everyday response to the competition of Dad jokes that we have at my work. So visceral.

Looking at that thumbnail... is Jacob ok? Did he survive supper?

I'm commenting so early because Serge doing his attempt at a Chewbacca noise made me spit water.

Missed opportunity having the last teams be named; "Breath of tha weath" vs "Tear of the there" Or likewise; "The Leg!" vs " The Leeeeeeeg!"

I thought I was the only person who remembers the Nutrigrain Bar commercial!!

I hope the new moonbase has a room big enough for a Monikers game with all LRRsfolk.

29:55 IAN NO. BAD IAN.

2:07:28 Timestamp for the glorious Serge Yager Poggers Moment

Delightful as always.

Another beautiful Monikers episode

Made sure I was good and late to enter my vote for team Adventure to the Past.

It's cute that cori and Ian look a lot alike and so does beej and Heather ❤

What's the band with the owl and water thing . I'm blanking

The bongle has been properly dongled

would love to see dale and jacob play monikers

Is it bigger than a breadbox?

1:17:04 yay yalc!!

I like monikers, i love graham's joke near the end and i wonder if you guys have heard of roll player.

my word for the five second rule: pentatemporal

I believe in the heart of the cards

Ah yes. Of The Of the, of the New Hampshire Of Thes.

Ian this card is clearly "An intervention"

Breath tears? I think that's just called coughing.

Engagement and interaction with creator to please the mathemagics that choses what gets seen or not.

can i make a small request? i would love to see you awesome people play a hidden traitor game like "the resistance" or "werewolf".

Serge's hiccups are adorable!

I wonder how this would go with people who know sign language.

I have dongled the vongle.

Is Jacob humping the table again in the thumbnail? :D

29:45 hey thanks, Ian, for *once again* saying something so disgusting that I want to close the video.

all of these duders are so bnased
