The Best Description of the Love-Hate Relationship of Domino

Michael Smelser  |    |  Tags:  domino humor yellowcast  |  Comments (1)

OK, it's time for me to officially declare my status as a fanboy for YellowCast. Yeah, I know, they have only put out 2 episodes but it has really drawn me in (I'm their #1 Fan! - a 'King' reference for you T). Chris Toohey and Tim Tripcony have a great chemistry that makes it really fun to listen to.


I have known Chris Toohey since before I came to work with Lotus 911 and have always thought he has had a great sense of humor and in the latest episode of YellowCast (Episode #2: Vicodin and MonkeyButter), around 42:33, he described the love/hate we all feel for Lotus Notes and Domino...

Domino is the little brother. I can pick on my little brother, because he's my little brother and I can pick on him but no one else...

Domino will always be my little brother... If you come in and you're another Domino Developer, you're a part of my family, and you know what, you can beat up Domino. Because for all the crap that happens, you know that there's benefits, you know that even though my little brother might be stupid, he might be not the brightest one out there sometimes, but you do see that he is amazing in other ways. You see that as a family, but if someone is walking down the street and goes 'Look at that Motard', I'm gonna attack!

That's the little brother...Domino is the 'Little Brother' syndrome.

Beautiful!

(Mutant Note: Chris does state that this is no reflection on his actual little brother.)

Good job guys! And remember... "The Audience is listening"

1 Tim Tripcony      Permalink Thanks, man, glad to see you're enjoying our ramblings thus far. I loved that analogy too... never thought about it that way before, but I realized that sort of crystallizes my relationship with the platform. Sure, I'll occasionally rant about what I perceive to be its shortcomings, but the moment I see Rod Boothby or his ilk spouting uninformed criticisms of it, I'm all up in their digital face. Funny how both kinds of discussions tend to get so emotional, and I think Chris hit the nail on the head in his explanation of why that is.
