Question Time[]
Coy says. "I own the first two season on DVD. Will it be worth it to buy the revamped versions?"
Season 2 is more or the less the same, just consolodated onto one disc. Season 1 is completely remastered and new.
Stephen replied, "Dear THAC. I would like to tell you about me company, Soap Scents Solutions, also known as SSS. Out mission statement is 'You know at the end of the day we all come together to have a come to Jesus moment and try to break through the clutter to peal back the onion and work to provide business to person and business to business modularity.' We also are currently looking to fund the virtualization of terrorist organizations by creating out best in class web 2.0 services. Hope you shall be willing to invest. Sincerely, Stephen."
Yes, definitely. Send us you IPO.
Jay asks, "Dear lovely boys of THAC, llc. What's it like on a normal day working at THAC? What do you expect to do, stuff like that, etc. etc. ?"
Joseph watches esports. Everyone talks about video games. Shipping happens on tuesdays and Fridays. Jospeh is also the numbers guy.
Paul asks, "Will you guys ever add a gift card to the THAC store?"
Probably not because they don't know how.
Eriska asks, "Has the posdcast replaced Troy's blog?"
Kinda. The posdcast, Tumblr, and the Kickstarter updates are all things that would normally be on the blog.
Jordan asks, "Is there a special effect that you guys wanted to use but couldn't get to use?"
Not really because if they couldn't get something to work they just worked around it to make it work. In entry 83, they wanted it to look like Hoody was thrown out the window, but couldn't make it happen. There is an amusing story about wooden legs but no torso. So the idea was changed to something more feasible. In season 1 they had some interesting problems with blood.
Erin (Aaron?) asks, "I was just wondering when, where, and how you guys all met each other. Any interesting stories about when you were all new friends?"
Troy and Joseph met in middle school (6th grade) and became friends over Pokemon. Tim and Troy first met through Brian. Tim's known Brian since 8th grade. Brian and Troy met in college in Beginning Acting. Tim and Troy met under a streetlamp in front of a diner. Tim met Joseph on the quad playing Frisbee. Tim was wearing a lot of orange.
