Regulation Advent Day 17
🕑 Added 2024-12-17 12:00:08 +0000 UTCAs you watch us open another day of things it has me wondering what was the best holiday gift you received? My fondest memory is getting a GameCube and playing Animal Crossing until the sun came up.
It might not be the best gift but it always brings me joy to give this free month of XM to someone.

I’m loving Nick’s hot sauce pairings, even if most of them are “hmmm, eggs”.

Oh no, they killed Rickey Henderson!
Andrew Kures
It has been a while since Achievement Hunter killed a celebrity, but it looks like the curse is alive and well
Josh Burr
I was just coming to say the same thing 🙁

I'm late to this vid but I just started watching minutes after the Rickey Henderson news came out
Tony K
gav was awsm in this 1

I interned at the Baseball Hall of Fame and found out that Rickey Henderson does in fact refer to himself in the third person at all times.

That skyscrapers joke "we ain't scrapin shit yet!" has Spaceballs written all over it lol

According to Google searches, currants are dried forms of the seedless "black corinth" and "carina" grapes. They are essentially rasins for those specific grape varieties. Raisins are dried dark grapes and sultanas are dried green grapes. The US calls sultanas golden raisins. I also frequently thought about what a currant was. Now I know and figured this would be a great place to share.

I watched this while opening my own advent calendar for the day! It’s a gems and rocks calendar. I got Tigers Eye. Merrrrrrrry Xmas!

honestly it is a travesty that Blackcurrant is so often overshadowed by Grape as the default purple flavour when Blackcurrant is the superior one.

Just like cricket, they love it

Beans in the bar, when?

Will Eric ever think to tag it FIRST? Best Christmas memory for now, is getting a Red Game Boy Color with Pokémon Crystal. Gen 2 was my first played gen. Cyndaquil is best starter

Next year Andrew can just gift Nick 25 random fast food sauce packets to rank, lol.

I think Andrew said day 16 later in Geoff's bit but we will let it slide

People don't like blackcurrant.

The kite (the toy/thingy mcjig dealio) is named after the red kite bird from what I remember. My grandpa is a big bird guy, loves purple martins. He told me the kite tidbit years ago :D
Willsy
Andrew, I really hope Gav has a j20 to come. A British staple that Gav once admitted he threw up on... would be joyous
John Kelly
Shout out to the Arnold Rimmer pic 🫡

Black currant has been banned for cultivation in the US since the early 1900s. The federal ban was lifted mid century but states have kept their bans.

It does seem like something Jamie Oliver would do. EU just did it first.
Sean Lunt
Honestly didn't know ribena came as anything other than a concentrate to add to water. But that shit is good
Chris C.J Jones
It’s an EU thing. Directive 2019/904
Chris C.J Jones
Not true in the slightest even though I’m not a fan of that glorified cook. It’s EU directive 2019/904 saying any bottle under 3 litres must have a tethered cap. And while the UK isn’t part of the EU anymore most companies that do both UK/EU it’s easier to just make it all compliant.
Nick K.
From what I can see in a quick search, Oxford dictionary has the earliest known use of Red Kite down as 1792 while Kites they toy are over 3000 years old.
Adam Matthews
Gavin - Jamie Oliver is to blame for the bottle caps
Brittany F
Absolute favourite, most magical Christmas moment was my brother and I getting GT Snow Racers. Best day of sledding ever.
Liam Allen
"Is a blackcurrant a grape?" Print that on a shirt asap
JakeTheSnakeYuh
Skyscraper convo made me laugh enough that I had to explain it to my coworkers
Matthew Hughes
Snoopy looks so cosy in that one.
Chris C.J Jones
Love the Chris Barrie signed pic in the background. Wonder what he’s up to these day- and he’s an anti woke moron… ugh.
scottish bonobo
Oh i didn't know those lids where a uk only thing, not a fan of them at all. Wild that Gavin went for a boots meal deal and not Tesco
Kracka
Gavin! Turn the lid to the side instead of straight in front of you!! :P
imnotthatbrad
The main reason I get out of bed everyday is to watch Nick mess up the influencer hand focus trick lol
Jeff Hanewicz
Someone has actually made baked bean cups with chocolate. Gotta look up The Vulgar Chef
MidnightArticuno
I wish I could go back in time and give Eric some tweezers and craft super glue to help with his more precarious jars

Kiwis are not in the banana family but both are botanical berries. Thanks for peaking my curiosity to look it up!

In North American terms, US terms the The fruit called current, is actually a grape and in its family of fruit because it is a Vine fruits. Problem currents or outlaw to be grown in the eastern eastern United States because it kills our major lumber trees like pine trees. And the artificial grape flavoring is supposed to be the flavor current

I really hope Andrew (and his mom (and me)) get a big, fat Christmas bonus this year.... ❤️💕

Currants are great. I work at a winery that makes an amazing black currant mead

Looked it up, toy kites are apparently named after the bird. So even though toy kites were invented a long time ago (in China), and the bird being called a kite in old English happening after their invention, when the toy was really introduced to the European audience as a toy, it was named after the bird due to how they similarly soared through the sky.

First guitar will always be a favorite Christmas memory. Sparked a lifelong hobby that brought a lot of joy yo my life and others.
FeliciaIsMaiWaifu
My favorite gift was getting my Game Boy Advance. That shit blew my mind as a kid. I was super into handhelds since I was outside all the time, and my Dad would always be on the SNES or N64, so that one was amazing.
DisneyGator
As a kid in Florida in the 70's, my most memorable Christmas gift was my parents put me on a plane to relatives in Pennsylvania so I could see snow for the first time. Pretty exciting.
Benito Renteria
My favorite Christmas moment was getting my Nintendo 64 at 6 years old I still have it and play it from time to time one of the best gifts I've ever received 😊
Marcus Elliott
fun fact, my wife used to be in development for Mars UK. During Covid she would make test samples of little chocolates at home and once for fun I made a heinz baked bean chocolate. Absolutely rank. 0/10. You really should try it!
Amber Roper
Todays hot sauce is a no for me lmfao. I love me some heat but I am not a fan of jalapenos
Lazarus
Shout out to Nick for the eggs with jalapenos idea. Coming from someone who loves both I can't believe I never thought to combine them.

There was one year i got everything i wanted on the list and every year i got a random book from some part of the family and i was thinking if they get this one book Christmas would be perfect. They got it by chance and it wasnt like an easy thing but a movie of it was coming out so they picked it cause they pushed it on bookstores with a still on the cover like they often do. I cant remember any of my other gifts that year but the book i do remember, still one of my all time favorites after all this time. A true Christmas miracle.
Jessica Sutter
I would have to say that while getting a GameCube and animal crossing for me and my sister to share was a great Christmas present. My favorite one that I have gotten was a few years ago when my mom made me and each of my brothers and sisters a scrapbook of our lives up to that point. And she wrote us all handwritten notes in the back of them. I cried happy tears when I read it and still do anytime I reread it.

My fondest memory is also Nintendo related. Got a Super Nintendo for Christmas and even though my parents were never the prankster type, I couldn't let myself believe it was there til I opened it up and could physically confirmed I actually got it because I was told over and over we couldn't get it and I was overjoyed it was actually there.
Adam
" a boots meal deal” 🤣
