Communitoid Episode 005 - Do You Even Lift?

Here's the slightly longer than usual Communitoid Episode 005 - Do You Even Lift?  This week Joanna experienced the glory of jump kicking zombies, Conor gives Aaron the perfect plan for a holiday suicide note, Andy's net connection is terrible and he hates you all, and guest host StriderHoang doubts you even lift.  We also talk about the Anita "Starkid" Sarskeesian controversy for the first and last time ever.  Enjoy the final Communitoid ever due to the upcoming Mayan Apocalypse!  

SPOILER ALERT!  We talk about The Dark Knight Rises, and mention something that may or may not be spoilerly from 1 hour 30 seconds until 1 hour 40 seconds. We also talk about the end of Dead Island from 1 hour 6 minutes and 35 seconds until 1 hour 7 minutes and 5 seconds.

PS: While mentioning RTS Total Annihilation Conor meant to say Chris Taylor when he said Chris Carter, and while talking about Nintendo Power Mxy said Howard Lincoln instead of Howard Phillips. Oops.
