JUSTIN MCELROY, KING OF DATES! | Polygon plays JACKBOX Party Pack 4
Ойындар
Griffin McElroy's last wish was to play a round of Monster Seeking Monster with the Polygon Jackbox crew and of course, world-famous brother Justin McElroy. We obliged; we're not monsters! We also sneak in a Quiplash at the very end, for old time's sake.

this game is the best when everyone in the room hides their identity and chooses the most out there names to throw things off. the fake flirting gets really bold and hysterical when no one knows whos who

agreed-my friends and i always play it anonymously, and it ramps the hysterical flirting up through the roof. personal highlight is when a friend used my name and impersonated me for the whole game
They were talking about communion wafers as good snacks and Justin said Jes-Its but nobody heard it and I just want to say it was very good.

@laurafrakinroslin

SheddyBear - because women in entertainment aren’t allowed to be anything less than appealing to men at ALL TIMES. On another channel Simone either wouldn’t have been allowed on the video team or she would be harassed into hiding her ‘ugly’ laughter. Her laugh is joyous because it’s genuine and unashamed. She’s not worrying about how she’s viewed when she laughs. The rarity of a laugh like Simone’s is also a large part of why people like it. Hearing it is like breathing when you didn’t notice you were holding your breath.

"The Magic School Bus Goes to Hell" was a short film the 10th grade humanities class at my school made nine years ago. It was the only ever successful short film and the only one with surviving footage from the brief period during which they were being made (it took up a lot of class time and the teacher who led that project left to start his own charter school, which... didn't get very far). It was on KZread until a couple years ago, when the student who posted it (a COWARD) took it down. It is a lost piece of our school's mythos, and embodies how the school's attitude has changed, and not for the better. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Why does Griffin enjoy making a game out of the prisoner's dilemma so much
When I clicked this episode I thought it was monster prom
i watched this before i knew who bdg was, and when i saw him it felt like my heart stopped. like... its... its baeby
My Saturday just got so much better.
this was a good last wish of griffins
I've watched this video multiple times and today was the first I heard Pat mutter "I'm the volcel vampire" after not picking anyone
I still think this is the best Jackbox game ever made
Griffin is so good at explaining things! And it’s so nice to see all of you together ❤️❤️❤️
27:20 I know this! It's now known that in 1972 a gun was been fired in space, it was a modified anti-aircraft gun and the reason was as a test on Salyut-3 before its deorbiting.
One of These Things is Not Like the Otter, a sitcom about an otter that got lost and is now trying to fit in to her found family of platypuses.
Im so used to hearing only Griffin's and Justin's voices that seeing their faces is really throwing me off.
"Andrew McCarthy" was amazing! Also, "Too many moon bears scaring off astronauts" was seriously underappreciated!
I’m sad that, for the otter sitcom one, no one thought of ‘My Brother, My Otter and Me’
Really disappointed that no one referenced the golden state killer in the very last prompt
I watch this every week and it never lets me down. Thanks Polygon.
'He used an emoji cute face!' boi you do not want to know where that came from
OH BABY FACECAMS.. WE’RE IN IT NOW DUDES
14:36 its tht guy justin played on OK KO lmao
Pat’s icon when he doesn’t pick anybody and it says rejected is honestly the look of “You player yourself.”
Monster seeking Monster is my fav jackbox game- my group plays with fake names so its harder to form alliances and keep it incognito
This is for sure my favorite let's play for Jackbox this is so funny
