…the hell? Where on Earth did you or _anyone_ get the impression that I'm complaining about my _rent_? It is literally the best thing about living where I'm living right now. I would never, ever complain about it. Jeez.

Well, i should add that the actual house I live in is really nice. It's just that the town is, well, it's a town Bruce Springsteen probably started writing a song about in the '80s and then gave up on because he was bumming himself out.

I live in Lewiston, ME, with a roommate; rent is $375 a month, plus the cost of living in Lewiston, which is higher than any of you would be willing to pay.

I love that episode. One of the best the show has ever done.

Goreville: Redistricting
Bloodfall: Nightmare Reins

Honestly, what makes this funny for me is that I can't ever really top "Killzone: Shadow Fall." It is the dumbest of dumb names.

Yeah, that's neat, but it seems kind of needlessly convoluted. But then, I have no idea how much of a process it is to make it possible to use the gamepad controller directly. Maybe it's cost prohibitive or something?

I've only had it for a few days, but I'm enjoying it. I'm really impressed by the game pad—it's far easier to hold and use than I was expecting, and the ability to play games on it while running something else on the TV is very cool. I'm not the best person to ask for game recs, given how I'm still figuring the system…

Yeah, the importing process is easy (you can bring in save games from the Wii too), but the interface is a little on the clunky side. Also kind of annoying: you can't play Wii VC games directly on the game pad, although you can with Wii U VC games. Nothing major, but my only real gripe with the Wii U so far is that it…

I haven't picked up SM3DW yet, but I did buy a Wii U over the weekend, in large part because the PS4 and XBox One had me itching to try out a new console, but I'm not ready to make a big investment yet; while the Wii U still isn't perfect, the existence of the Zelda port (which looks utterly gorgeous in HD) and games…

it's three months, actually.

I actually meant Mulder as our second favorite alien abductee. (Scully is, of course, our first.)

That is a darn good mask.

Yeah, I didn't bother mentioning it again because it was so dumb, but it's worth repeating: it was very, very dumb.

Yeah; it's a joke that could've easily been over the top or even sickish, but Duchovny and Anderson play it so well that it fits. Makes up for a lot, really.

I actually called a store in town to reserve a copy of the new Zelda, which I hardly ever do; there's usually no reason to, since where I live very rarely sells out of anything. But the reviews have been so great that I wanted make sure I'd be able to play it as soon as it came out. Just have to get through the stupid…

I usually watch MST3K episodes while I play. But I do that for most video games.

Yeah, the second one reminded me a bit of when the Venture Brothers creators started obviously falling in love with their characters and the world they'd been satirizing; the narrative shifted from "DO YOU GET MY POINT ABOUT HOW THESE PEOPLE ARE PRICKS" to "Okay, let's see what happens when he tries to do the right…

I had the NES Star Wars. It was fun, but crazy difficult. (I think I made it to the final battle once, died, and never looked back.)
