Am I weird that whenever I enter a car’s blind spot I try to psychically signal the driver? I spend those few seconds saying “See me see me see me” in my head. It’s worked so far.

You’d be surprised to find out that the TMNT movie is basically the first story arc from the comics. They didn’t change a whole lot, if I remember right (it’s been a few decades for me for either).

Until Ragnarok and now this weekend that was true. Waititi and Coogler are very present in their movies and I hope this is a trend.

I bet you a dollar that there’s lawyers or department heads or something that don’t want the brands to mix or else they’ll dilute each other or something stupid.

They’re tasty, it’s interesting that Canada doesn’t do fried cheese curds since it’s huge in Wisconsin and the northern Midwest in general. To make them into poutine is very wrong though, I expect the fried batter would just get gooey and nasty.

My wife talked me out of buying a Herman Miller Aeron a few months ago. I bought a Gamer Chair instead for 1/3 the price. I regret it. My new chair is actually on the boring end color-wise, but multiple people have said it looks like something out of a starship. I could have had a masterpiece of design.

I have two ideas for a figure skating game: gonzo fighting game-like combos with crazy anime styling, or one of those strategy games from the perspective of a coach where you’d choreograph and plan the element timing along with managing your athlete’s fatigue and health.

This article is wrong.

OK, I could almost sign up for a Caddyshack rehash with her as the boorish outsider.

I think everyone should try picking up a box of these while they’re still around. Not like, figuratively picking up as in buying, but literally feeling how damned heavy the box is. It’s like picking up lead ore or something.

On my last vacation I started taking pictures of people taking pictures. It started being more interesting to me especially when I found out that people really don’t notice you doing it.

I grew up in Iowa but now live in California, and I tell people that tornadoes are like a house fire. Sure it could happen to you, but when it happens it doesn’t affect a lot of people at one time, so you’re prepared and then don’t worry too hard. Earthquakes are like a flood or hurricane where it hits a whole region

You must not read the 5e books then. In the current set of modules one has a big focus on Kobolds, four have goblins in varying degrees (two or three of those have important story points attached to goblins), and one doesn’t have much of either. 

I’m running Lost Mines of Phandelver for an experienced group, and I’ve made it so the myriad goblins almost never start a fight. I leave it up to the party how they treat the goblins and if the players want to fight, they do. My goblins are sniveling cowards but also real big talking jerks. Also, it’s tons of fun if

I should have mentioned that. Yeah, it was fully in the genre of Action-Comedy and succeeded well.

My first guess is that it belongs to one of the ne’er-do-wells that Ant Man hangs out with, but I’d be jazzed if it was a Hot Wheel brought to life size.

Yeah, I’m a straight cis white guy so I’m sure he thinks I’m on his team. I’ve been practicing a “You don’t know me as well as you think and you should watch your damn mouth” speech for a month now.

I’ve got a Fucking New Guy in my office these days, and he’s very excited that my bosses ‘don’t really do the whole PC thing’. Usually they’re just kind of crass and it’s fine, but FNG has stepped in it with me more than once already. First he said some transphobic shit in his first week that basically made me write

SNES Super Mario Kart, Battle Mode Map 2 (we called it the swimming pool map). It’s got the perfect blend of cover, open space, and hideouts.

As near as I can tell no one is interested in making a scripted space flight sim like Wing Commander, X-wing, or Freespace these days. I don’t get it, either. Elite is fun enough, Star Citizen will someday be released, No Man’s Sky is reportedly becoming fun, but all those are sandboxy unscripted games. It’s not like
