Griffin: "Need help with my story title? Hi, I'm writing a story about a young woman who has three children, and one day she gets into a horrible accident and the three children die. Her life changes forever from that moment on. She ends up falling in love with a man whose brother was driving the car that killed her kids. Do you have any ideas for a title? Thanks." Smiley face. So that's the question.
Travis: I would call it "Yakity Sax!"
Griffin: Um—
Justin: Isn't that— Isn't that what Family Matters was about?
Griffin: ...Yes. "Family Matters" would be an appropriate title for this book.
Justin: [laughing] What about "Perfect Strangers"?
Griffin: [laughing] "Perfect Strangers—"
Justin: Yeah.
Griffin: "Empty House", all of these, um—
Justin: "Empty—" Yeah.
Griffin: "Three Was Enough But Now We're Down To Zero." Guys, fucking trust me, there is nothing we can say, uh, that's going to be funnier than the questions that the real internet turned out.
Travis: Okay.
Justin: Okay. The answers, you mean? The ans— The answers?
Griffin: Here's one from Nina, who replies, "Riding Waves," parenthesis, [whispers] "(Emotional Waves)" [normal voice] Um, Grace says, "'The Painful Reminder', or 'The Reminder,' because he reminds her of the kids and the painful loss. Source: my mind!"
Justin: [laughing] Fuck you, it does not say that!
Griffin: Didn't plagiarize that one. That one came right from her dome piece.
Justin: [laughing] No! Right from the noggin. "This is noggin cream that I made just for your problem. Here."
Griffin: Sakura Shaunnessy has a— a bunch of really good ones. Here we go:
Justin: Okay.
Griffin: "Loving the Dead."
Justin: Okay.
Griffin: "The Day they Die—"
Travis: Argh! No!
Griffin: "The Day they Died."
Justin: Okay.
Griffin: "Wispy Memories."
Justin: [sing-song] Wispy Memories... [normal voice] I'm trying to solidify this memory in my head, but I can't, it's just ephemeral. It's right there. It's wispy.
Griffin: "Coping with the Pain."
Justin: Coping... Coping... Coping With The Pain. I like it, it flows.
Griffin: "The Day they never saw night." Huh?!
Justin: [laughs] Bwuh?
Griffin: "Grieving mom." That's pretty straightforward, I guess. "Grief—"
Justin: [laughs] "Book." "Book Book."
Griffin: [laughs] "Grief, tears, and love?" There is a question mark...
Justin: [laughing] That's like— That's like, uh— That's like, "They're best friends, but one of them's a cat?!"
Travis: [Unintelligible] sits on her lap?!
Griffin: Lynn Diane asks (or replies, sorry), "'Fatal crossing.' Maybe the children are killed crossing the street or at a crosswalk, or a railroad crossing." BITCH, DON'T TRY TO REWRITE THIS BOOK BEFORE IT'S WROTE!
Justin: [laughing] "This is coming from my heart! Source: My mind! Trust me! Trust— Trust on the fact that I— You're not going to help me in the edits! This is a titling project, only! I am creative enough to come up with a whole book, but not a title for the book!"
Griffin: Percyjackson127, who is a top contributor to Yahoo (uh, we haven't seen one of those in a while), uh, responds, uh, "Taming soul." Ugh. "Taking flight."
Justin: Why?!
Griffin: "Burning memories."
Justin: Okay.
Griffin: "Love with the murderer—"
Travis: Maybe they died in a plane crash.
Griffin: [laughing] "Love with the murderer's boy."
Justin: What?!
Griffin: [laughs, slightly difference emphasis] "Love with the murderer's boy."
Justin: That— This guy has a fundamental misunderstanding of what this story is about.
Griffin: Yeah.
Justin: Not like we do. He didn't get it. I wanna—
Griffin: That's—
Travis: Here's my title: "A Book About A Woman Who Falls In Love With The Dude Who Killed Her Kids."
Justin: Let me hit you guys with: "There Can Be Only None."
Griffin: Ooo.
Justin: Yeah. Uh, we've gotta have a better title than these people. I do like, "Riding Waves (of Emotion)."
Griffin: [whispers] "(Emotional Waves)."
Justin: [also whispers] "(Emotional Waves)." [normal voice] Source...?
Griffin: There's no source on that one, but I'm going to go ahead and assume it was also her mind.
Travis: No, that was her heart.
Griffin: How about— How about, "Movin' Out"?
Justin: Whoa, I like it. [laughs] Um—
Travis: [laughs] "The Music Man."
Justin: What about "My Hero"?
Griffin: Uh...
Justin: Does— Are we— Am I to believe that this story— that this story is that she falls in love with the brother of the guy who accidentally killed her kids?
Griffin: Yes.
Justin: This is not—
Travis: [laughs] Call the book, "Sorry About My Brother!"
Justin: That's not a very good book, it doesn't sound like! It doesn't sound like a very good— like, a very interesting story. Like, it— it seems like that conversation would kinda be like, "Isn't that...?" "Yeah..." "Oh well..." "Yeah, I know. What can you do, right?" Oh, that's a good title! "What Can You Do?"
Griffin: "What Can You Do?"
Travis: [laughs] "Oh Well."
Griffin: How 'bout, um—
Justin: That one's fun.
Griffin: How 'bout just, "Uh Oh." "Whoops!"
Justin: "Oops!"
Travis: "My Bad."
Griffin: Also: "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants."
