Oh, I love making up new stories for video games. I've played at least one Fallout game as Dashiell Hammett's Continental Op, sent to engage in some Red Harvest-style shenanigans in a place somehow even worse than Personville.

Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!

What a bizarre confluence of words that somehow accurately describes a real physical object.

If you know a better way to make a lump of coal, I'd like to hear it.

More World of Warcraft for me. I plan to spend the evening alternating between Archaeology and Heroic dungeons, as I have quests for each. I'm pretty goddamn sick of the Nightborne at this point. Thankfully the game no longer stalls out at the loading screen when warping to Dalaran, but the framerate still plunges in

Or as the kids call it, Frosted Flakes.

Ah, I used to play Pictionary Telephone with my college friends (although we reversed the title). Fun times.

Well, it doesn't help that the godawful actual song can't make up its mind from minute to minute whether Pete's actually banging people or murdering them.

Well, why not just give them diapers and milk, then? Or make every gift gold in the first place? An impoverished couple with a baby doesn't need any extra hassle!

I'm not saying this episode is the secret origin of Dogcopter, I just wouldn't argue with anyone who did.

In keeping with the "harvest special's" bootleg Thanksgiving, we now have our very own Gem Nativity. And fittingly, each gift is exactly as useful to a baby as gold, frankincense, and myrrh would be.

No thank you.

I'm getting unreasonably hyped about Mass Effect Andromeda after reading Game Informer's long article about it (which I realize is the point of such articles, but still). Exploration! New aliens! SON OF THE MAKO! I unabashedly loved that idiotic farting clown car, and I can't wait to try out its doofy spawn.

I've got another script in the works, ever so slowly.

I get to stay in my apartment! Yay! And I'll have new roommates soon! And they have dogs! Huzzah!

What in the good god damn.

McCain's been pretty adamant about preventing him from bringing back waterboarding and other torture practices. But I think it's just that one issue for him.

That… that's a thing?

Swashbuckling hero Kurt, of course! With some of the latter here and there, naturally.
