Tingle, Tingle, Kooloo-Limpah!

I watched [livejournal.com profile] bethje play a little of The Windwaker last night. The Zelda games are really cool, but I suck at actually PLAYING them. I have to wonder what the deal is with Tingle, a grown man who's obsessed with fairies and dresses like one. I think he's Hyrule's answer to Michael Jackson, except with Flava Flav's clock. Apparently he's the most hated character in the series, which doesn't surprise me. What does is that he's apparently supposed to star in his own game.

The new They Might Be Giants podcast doesn't have much in the way of new songs, but there are a few short songs recorded for contest winners and one from a radio spot, as well as another clip from the infamous Gloria conversation. It's weird that more of that is being released after so many years. There are also Last Car and Corn Mo songs, which I was already familiar with, but it's cool to hear them again nonetheless. And hey, Cecil is back! ([livejournal.com profile] k1cup might not be so happy about that, but I am. {g})

I haven't listened to it yet. But, ugh. :P Y'know, it's just that he reminds me of the Carvel ice cream guy. That guy would always sound like he had a glob of phlegm in the back of his throat. I would never hear what he said because I was always thinking, "For God's sake, Man, clear your throat, but good!"

I can see how someone might find the Cecil voice annoying after a little while, even though it doesn't bother me. I was disappointed with the last podcast, though, not so much because it didn't have Cecil as because it didn't have ANY talking at all.
