337: Living In A Vacuum

[Frank West]

What is the song that Frank hums? He mumbles "(something) rider." I know there's another episode where in the intro, Lemon hums a long bassline and then someone follows it with "(something) rider." Does anyone know what song this is? It's been bothering me.

Can't remember offhand, but if you tell me when in the episode I do this, I'll give you an answer.

[Ugly In The Morning]

There was a lot more “MOTHERRRR” than I was expecting in this one.

I like Shark brand vacuums because they routinely rank highest on Consumer reports and have a retro futuristic vibe in case design. I am saddened to see so much hate towards the brand on the forums. It seems they're hard to crack open and repair. Seems like there's a mix of "they don't make em like they used to" and yearning for a "simpler time." The latter being a shitty impulse the former being only mostly true.

Love this ep though.

I suspect that most collector groups like this are at least partially fueled by a heavy nostalgia and the happy feelings associated with childhood contact with whatever thing they're collecting.  It's definitely something I can relate to as I get older and more and more stuff from my childhood disappears (and more people die).

was expecting more vacuum hose blowjob horror stories tbh but this was a surprisingly sweet episode after horny world building and SMT bigfoot. just dudes and their vacuums

[A Meat]

Finally got around to this, but I'd absolutely watch Vacuum Battlebots, where people mod and create their own vacuum cleaners and pit them against each other

[KingKalamari]

Tag suggestion for this and episode 334: Latent appliance fetishism!

[Hoffgod]

I wonder if these people consider Roombas/robot vacuums as a blasphemous existential threat to their hobby, or they're so firmly rooted in the past that they just don't care about vacuuming today so long as they can enjoy their vacuums from yesteryear.

Had a little draw along as I listened to this episode. I was really expecting it to be more fetish heavy than it actually was.

Not sure if that's something I should feel proud of, but I kind of do?

I had the exact same thought. On one hand, most of them seem pretty self-aware about it, and "I collect this household item because it reminds me of family and childhood" is harmless and not even that weird; on the other, Attempted Aunt-Murder Anthony is enough creep for an entire episode.

Agreed that Supportive Vacuum Dad was a bright spot, though. Good work, that guy's dad!

[Shell Game]

Longing for a bygone era... ^{Oh no.}

Where the mechanical quality of a vacuum was much better! ^{Oh. ...huh.}

What a truly astounding community of weird, weird people.

This is most specifically for Frank West. Then others.
