Dont forget the most obvious, it would cost more money. Sony was obviously not giving any more money to Al so I doubt theyd pay for bonus content

Re: Mandatory Fun Chit Chat Topic
The major lack of supplemental things for Madatory Fun is that there was no Al-TV.
That would've kept the hype train a-chuggin' for sure.

Re: Mandatory Fun Chit Chat Topic
Something just occurred to me: One of my big (first world) problems with the Alpocalypse album was that it contained so many scatological jokes, which I'm not really a big fan of. By contrast, MF hardly has ANY bathroom humor. I think the closest it comes is the bilabial fricative sound effect (AKA fart noise) during the "let it all out" portion of the polka, but that doesn't bother me too much.

Re: Mandatory Fun Chit Chat Topic
Yeah, come to think of it 5 Alpocalypse songs mention poop or farting. It didn't really bother me too much, but it being a bit more discrete on MF is probably better. NTWICP is the only song with a scatalogical joke, the fart sound in Scream & Shout, but it's a well-placed sound effect.

Re: Mandatory Fun Chit Chat Topic
I suppose we also have the overflowing toilet line in "Handy", which in and of itself isn't really a poop joke. At least not until you see Eddie Pepitone sitting on said toilet in the music video....

Re: Mandatory Fun Chit Chat Topic
I sure don't mind the reduction in poop jokes. That one line completely ruins "If That Isn't Love" for me, which I otherwise like a lot.

Ditto. Such a great song, but I cringe when I have to sing that line during my car karaoke sessions.Orthography Enthusiast wrote:I sure don't mind the reduction in poop jokes. That one line completely ruins "If That Isn't Love" for me, which I otherwise like a lot.
