Video: Welcome To The Mushroom Singdom!
There I was, watching American Idol in my Tokyo hotel room while eating cheese from the Dean & Deluca downstairs, wondering if my Japanese experience could possibly get any more authentic, when the Tinyphone began to ring. It rang, I suspected, with a touch of sang-froid. The Tinyphone always feigns indifference when ignored overlong.
"Moshe Moshe?" I asked the receiver. When in Rome...
"David, it's Jonathan." Said a soft Sephardic voice.
"Shh! They're reading this." I warned before he could continue.
A gentle clearing of the throat. "Tiny, it's GameJew. I'm singing musical video reviews of new Virtual Console games every week for 1UP. It'd be a shonda if they didn't make it to GayGamer. I mean, who loves topical musical comedy more than the gays?"
This was the wrong moment for another of my Darfur Vaudeville jokes. "Absolutely no one on the planet, so far as I can tell. I'm posting as we speak. How's your brother, the doctor?"
The line went dead, the Tinyphone once again mutely resentful polypropylene. I wasn't worried. When least I expect it, whenever I need him most, GameJew will be there with a Biedermeier-brown eye and a D chord. Not to mention euphonious reviews of VC games like Super Thunder Blade and Yoshi's Island.
Love him and watch yourselves be loved in turn.

Dang, that Yoshi's Story song is actually pretty catchy. Glad I'm not the only one who actually enjoys it. No, it's not up to par with the usual Mario fare, but it is quite cheerfully enjoyable.
That was fucking hilarious. Except I have to disagree. World Series Baseball was terrible!
LOl i love me that GameJew, hes sooo cute and sang the best song from X-Play the musical(although the episode sucked) He needs to stop saying hes straight lol he has 3 copies of the gay gene LOLOLOLOLOL
...Wow.
So I just read over the enterity of this post. I noticed the part of the post-story where Tiny picks up his phone and goes "Moshe Moshe."
Which has basically ended several year's worth of confusion. Because for many years, I have thought those Japanese phone-answering folk were saying "Mushi Mushi."
Sooo glad I have NEVER gone to Japan, or else I'd make a fool out of myself.
