[soniti]

What the hell, I started donating money every month on august 11th to see the show earlier and got to see last months episode earlier but for some reason it wont let me see this weeks episode early and my account is upgraded. What the heck. :mad:

[vahnx]

Is the episode called Stone because Kevin was stoned? Looked like it, especially near the beginning. Pay close attention to the eyes and the way he was talking.
Also, why such a rush to end the episode? It was 40 minutes and 03 seconds, I've seen 50 minute episodes.

[travislopes]

I hate RegisterFly. They ream you more than AOL does.

[latour]

show has gotten worse and worse every week, and this week is no exception. we should rename the show to [PIC]Nation.

[truebullfan]

Pretty funny that Kevin didn't know it was Alex's birthday and that he just mentioned it randomly.


The rant by Alex about facebook was pretty funny. "Call the guy up"

[ookuo]

btw how long is the ep?

[ipodman715]

40 minutes almost exactly.

I can attest as someone who worships the howse of 420,
that Kevin is not high .. in this episode.

However.. there HAVE been times
and episodes
that I felt he was within worship ramifications.
This episode is not one of them.

Loving the Southern Comfort sponsor.
It's about time they start with the serious liquor.
Beer is so high school.

Still watching....

[phatlip12]

It's the SoCo, not the sticky icky...

[tangerine]

TY phatlip.. agreed.


FEMALE fan been listening (*ahem* WATCHING)
since the FIRST diggnation....

... as covered in my linked interview with Kevin and Jay.

... as covered in my linked interview with Kevin and Jay.

Woah cool, he was controlling your computer? What if he like opened the command prompt or went to your C:/ drive and right clicked really fast and formatted or something O.o

I once had a dream someone was somehow controlling my machine via logmein and I kept fighting with him with the mouse, this person kept clicking my start menu or something and I clicked it off. I finally turned off the internet and that's all I remember.

[hillbilly-rockstar]

It wasn't that bad. I kinda enjoyed the episode. Sometimes I get pissed though when Kevin or Alex starts to say something and go "well I better not say it"! C'mon tell us man! Either keep your mouth shut or spill the beans.

EDIT: I was going to sign up for Netflix and Netflix.com/diggnation isn't in use?

You have to go to www.netflix.com/diggnation (http://www.netflix.com/diggnation) for it to work.

Limecat 2.0

[leem]

Were they having Coronas? Is that what the lime is for?

[denmmurray]

Were they having Coronas? Is that what the lime is for?

yes...nothing beats a corona with a lime.

[futool]

yes...nothing beats a corona with a lime.

You should try a Blue Moon (Belgian white) with an Orange slice.
It rocks the fat ass!

[titaniumlizzard]

Nope, it's Southern Comfort. Kevin had his with lime, and Alex had some southern comfort with his coke.

dude...of course. I love me some hefeweizen with a lemon, too...even though I probably didn't spell that right.

[silentspyder]

I agree with someone else's post. They need to cut down on the pics, mabye do 1 per show. For me and the other 2 people who listen instead of watch it's not that good. Drunk guys talking tech seemed more niche than just drunk guys talking about general news.

[tangerine]

haha...douchebag...


excuse YOU?


(you are excused)

[cabe]

Hey, Happy belated birthday Alex!

[eddielee]

It's not Kevin and Alex's fault that they mostly cover pictures. If you go to Digg you'll see that most of the top stories are pics now, and they have to cover the weekly top. If there was a picture section the problems would be solved.

[laurent]

Best reflection of Alex's barefoot on his laptop ever...

[whoisscott]

i think this (and last week's) were some of the funniest eps. lately. I loved alex's facial expressions and explanation of the women hiding her laptop in the oven. Also the facebook rant was great.

[catavarie]

I enjoy watching Digg every week. But sometimes things that come out of Kevin and Alex's mouths just makes me shocked.

Speaking as someone that lived on the wrong side of law for quite a bit, do not try and hide your lap top in your bed. Anyone who has ever had their house broken into and ransacked should know that everything gets ruined and checked including closets (from top to bottom), all cabinets and drawers, and even the bed. The burglers will yank off mattresses and box springs and check under the bed and even behind head boards because a lot of people actually think of these as safe hiding spots and the vandals know this.

My suggestion is to install a hidden panel in a wall to keep small valuables hidden in if you don't want to have the expense of a good safe that is bolted to the floor.

Just a bit of advice from a reformed B&E artist.

I thought it was a good show this week, did spend some time on the e-mails though, but thats cool all in all a good episode.

[stones2125]

On the story about wierd laws, Alex read the law "Whale hunting is illegal in Utah."
Kevin responded "He didn't really go whale hunting did he?"

Kevin, read the law again. "Whale hunting is illegal in UTAH
I don't think you will be seeing pods of whales in the Great Salt Lake. Until Sea World Provo is built, I think the whales are safe in Utah!!!

DOH!!!!

[gm_wil]

Man, when Alex started talking about the beer bucket...I damn-near had tears in my eyes i was laughing so hard...and I don't know why that was so f'ing funny but it was...and the tiki bar slip from kevin...

[cuss]
