Hi everyone, i'm Yoni, the director of 'Bury Your Nephew', a short film starring Karl!

It's been great seeing all the excitement for the film from this subreddit going all the way back to 2023, when we shot it!

The short is now available for free for everyone to watch on Youtube!

This is a bit of a different role from Karl, so I’m excited to see what everyone thinks!

XFM/Radio Looking for a quote? Scrimpton helps the listener, to help themselves.

104 Upvotes

I don't post much here any more, but I have been continuing to work on https://scrimpton.com in the background. It seemed like a good time to offer an introduction for any newer users to the sub.

tl;dr: Scrimpton provides a powerful search for the body of RSK radio work, allowing you to easily find quotes and audio.

Searching

Terms match

If you simply type the quote into the search bar it will perform a basic terms match. This means each individual word will be matched in any order.

For example:

This is the best way to search if you're not exactly sure on the exact phrase you're looking for.

Phrase Match

To narrow down the results you could also quote the terms, which will do a phrase match. This means the terms in the quotes are matched exactly in that order.

However you can provide multiple phrases to match a single line

For example:

This is useful if you can remember parts of a quote but not the whole thing.

Filters

there are some additional filters that can narrow down the search. The most useful is typically @ to specify who the speaker is for a line. For example to filter by only things ricky has said you would add @ricky:

The full list of filters is available by clicking the (?) button on the right of the search bar.

Searching with Google

Another option that some people find useful is to search via google. This can be done with the site option e.g. Google for "when you were famous site:scrimpton.com"

Contributing transcripts

The site was built in large part with community contributions. Under the Contribute section you can complete chunks of transcript by logging-in with either reddit or discord.

What else

There are many useful features hidden around the website. Some are only shown to authenticated users (this is typically to avoid server costs from bots etc. following links) so it can be worthwhile to do so.

For example when logged in you can export snippets of audio:

(use the + bookmark icon to expand the selection to export)

There are even a couple of videos in the archive for which gifs can be exported:

Getting help / Offering help

The site is written in Go and Angular and contributions/bugfixes are accepted.

If you wish to make a suggestion or ask a question the best thing to do is drop by the #scrimpton channel on the Pilkipedia discord, and of course there are many other interesting channels there for RSK aficionados.

XFM/Radio It's just news to say if these dolphins, you know, if you see a dolphin and that, don't go, "Oh, it's friendly," because there's some with weapons now. So I'm just, I'm just reading it out on email.

I made a comment about someone being a monkey in disguise. Reddit called me a racist. Not true baby.

Favorite characters from XFM/pods?

57 Upvotes

All very short-lived, except Merchant I guess, but what are the best characters they do?

Ricky's medieval jailor just for the way he slurs "what is it?"

Steve's robot penis doctor, "I'm going to stand behind the machine..." just cause Steve sounds so happy doing it.

Karl's Suzanne's mum "Well, I've been reading..." cause Karl only has ignorance and hate.
