"Immersion Therapy" was originally released on October 25, 2010.

Description

In this unofficial MBMBaM Halloween Spooktacular, the brothers McElroy turn up the fright meter to "AAH"-leven, answering a whole mess of eerie queries about ... um, relationships and meeting people and other sad stuff. We guess it's not all that terrifying, unless you consider the fact that we've done this twenty-seven times now to be a little scary.[Note 1]

Suggested Talking Points

The cleanest hands, hypothetical future-to-present time travel, Jekyll and Bastard, Ja Drool, the nerd void, tapeworm baby, baggin' it


Outline[]

00:45 - Intro - Like Chilean Miners, again.

02:43 - Email - One my friends that I've known for years has a serious problem about washing his hands too much. He washes them every 30 minutes and as it get colder outside his hands start to crack and bleed because they are dry. What should I do to get him to stop being a freak? -- Kevin

05:44 - Formspring - Dear brothers, my girlfriend says I play WoW too much. I've lived with my girlfriend for eight years and started playing WoW a year ago. I play a few hours a day, but she wants me to stop. So I haven't been on the dating scene for 10 years, any advice?

08:15 - Email - My friend Tim and his girlfriend have a problem. They never stop making out and groping each other in front of the rest of us. How do I go about stopping this? At points it's downright annoying. Also, talking to them about it and telling them how we feel does nothing. I need something a little more drastic...thoughts? -- Carlo

10:56 - Email - I have this guy friend who to me is TOTALLY AWESOME. He's great, funny, he's chill, all that. The only problem is that to people that he isn't friends with, he's just a total jerk, just the worst. He's rude and downright unpleasant to be around. He's never violent or anything like that, but still. Even though he's perfectly fine when he's hanging with me, I find a lot of friends kinda look down on me for hanging around him because of this. What should I do? Thanks![Note 2] -- Devil's Advocate

How can I make my rapping better?
When I rap I get a lot of saliva in my mouth and I don't sound to good when it happens how can I change that and can yougive me other suggestions


16:48 - Formspring - Okay, alright my older brother is balding. He tries to hide it with hats, hoodies, bonnets, etc. Unfortunately he cannot rock a hat and his wearing a hoodie indoors makes him look like a rapist. How do I get him to get right with his MPB?

20:44 - Email - I'm just recently graduated from college at Berkeley and I packed my bags and moved away to the San Francisco peninsula with my boyfriend for a job at Stanford. Our friends in Berkeley are too lazy to come visit us (we visit them) and we have no friends on the peninsula. How do you meet people and make friends after college especially 20-somethings? We are both nerdy people who like video board games and comic books. We prefer to meet other well-adjusted nerds. The problem with this is that most nerds I’ve met are single men and are awkward and uninterested when we approach them as a couple, but try to ask me out when I don't have my boyfriend around. This happened recently when I went to a local board game shop and asked if they had a game night. We don't need to meet nerds, but we also want to have some stuff in common with our future fantastic friends. -- Steph

26:57 - Email - Hey MbMbaM, I'm always, always hungry. There literally isn't a time when I couldn't eat. I'm not a fat guy, but I fear I may become one. What should I do? Keep up the amazing work, especially the deep voice guy who isn't Justin or Griffin, I like him. -- Harrison

31:15 - Y - Sent in by Benjamin Carl, from Yahoo! Answers user Floyd Brewer, who asks:

I am trying to get my son trained to defecate in a bag instead of a toilet or diaper any suggestions or tips?
My wife and I are very environment conscious and have been thinking of ways to teach this to our three-year-old son, he isn't potty trained yet, and we don't really want him formally trained to use a toilet; which we believe wastes water and drains resources. My wife and I started going in bags about two years ago and we use the excrement, blended with other materials, to fertilize our garden, and also sell it to friends for extra spending money. But we have had problems getting him to squat, and be patient enough to go. How can we encourage him? Prizes? Punishment? What has worked for you?

My urine smells like Worcestershire sauce, what gives?
