"... I nerd out about classic sci-fi staples and their real-world counterparts." And I'm hooked by the end of the first sentence.

Swaim on Cracked, glory what a day! I needed good news after these migraines. 😅

Phew! I was about to ask "since when?!" and brace for "oh, a few years now" but... well, phew. Welcome back, man. That whole era is so missed.

2:50 UHM ACKSHULLY: Gates do have a range limit in StarGate though it is relatively rarely brought up (and depends on the type of gate). If you travel to a distant gate you do so by hopping gate to gate across the network and the network has a definitive edge. You can boost the output to get to a far away gate out of network but with the energy required it is generally a one way trip and you need another way back.

Glad ur back. Tackle Universal Translators. Also explain the sentence in English, translitered Spainish, Spanish, and Mandarin: If you were a purple crow, you would fear a cat's maw.

Wild to see Swaim again! Love the shoutout to O'Brien

WHAT! Swaim is back on Cracked!?

Guess I’m re-subscribing to Cracked! Yay Swaim!

For most of the late 00s/ early 10s, my litmus test for whether or not I gelled with somebody’s sense of humor was to show them Swaim’s Cracked TV or Those Aren’t Muskets sketches. So glad to see him back!

Welcome back! Suggested tech to tackle: phaser/disruptor/disintegration beam. It always broke my brain to see the beam vapourize the whole person, including clothing and equipment, but sometimes the person drops an item, or sometimes their clothes are left behind, or sometimes an entire door evaporates, but the walls around the doorway are intact... How does the beam understand what it's supposed to destroy?

Watched just for the Swaim, been a long time since I've watched anything other than Roger on this channel.

Not even Swaim can woo me back to subscribing. The doors to my heart closed forever the day Cracked fired the old crew. Now I'm a bitter, spiteful man who only laughs at funerals and waiters who drop things.

Welcome back, Swaim! . Glad I stayed subscribed. . WAIT! Where's Clippy? . Stargate has the same problem as The Fly, the Ancients have merely pre-installed the gates and it's limited to however much power you can put in the gate. An entire planet explodes and you get a couple galaxies away. . In Star Trek, we know the consciousness goes through the entire transporter process from that episode where we follow Barcley through it. . Nightcrawler "can" teleport to places he can't see, but he doesn't know that. He actually slips into another dimension, travels to where he wants to and slips back into ours with no memory of the other dimension.

Good to see you Swaim. I didn’t fully appreciate you until you were gone. I won’t make that mistake again.

Yooooo! I can't over state just how hype I was to see Swaim in a Cracked video again

So glad you're back, Swaim! DOB and his emmys can suck it, you were always the funniest one on After Hours. To this day, I will randomly quote, "What else does the card know? ASK IT HOW I DIE!" No one gets it but I always give myself a chuckle. Great video, looking forward to many more. Maybe the next one can tackle cryogenic freezing? P.S. I don't really think DOB and his emmys should suck it. DOB is very funny, too.

Woah… did I just travel back in time??
