@jeremycole: Glad to hear your loved ones are OK, you must've had some moments of terror. Positive thoughts for everyone affected and I'll donate to the Red Cross on payday.

@Artik: In or out of three-year warranty? If out, repair, upgrade, throw in the towel? Anyway, regardless of circumstances, sorry to hear about your misfortune.

@Vicxlee: It's not a 'job if you enjoy what you do!

@Tre_Green: They aren't #handjobs they're hand adventures...

@puresewas1de: Falafel. Indian food. Tomato Bisque.

Speech is a much more complicated skill than language, involving (of course) an understanding of language, and then also a tremendous amount of physical coordination. So kids understand you well before they are able to talk to you. And sign language is much easier for them to pick up. If you start to think about all…

@deanbmmv: You have my bow!

@swimmingninja: The Fog of War: 11 Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara, in which Kennedy and Johnson's Defense Secretary indicts himself for Errol Morris' Interrotron.

@deanbmmv: Oh man, I hope we get some more Kotaku Bureau of Weights & Measures soon. I was thinking about that yesterday. The original pac-turd dialogue between Fletch & Owen is one of the funniest things I've ever read on the internet ever.

@Aklost: Don't stay home unless either you can take a vacation day, or your job is such that you could just say that you're going to stay home to game... Calling in sick is for being sick, or for epic shit like a road trip with friends, not for holing up on a rainy day. That said, I have a vacation day scheduled for…

@Steven Ansell: God of Warioware?

@drift150: I'm skeptical myself. However... There are interesting potential uses. Imagine if a game were able to tell when you started to relax, and then and only then sent a demonic dog crashing through a window. Or maybe it's used as a rudimentary lie detector. Maybe you have to lower your heart rate to use a…

@Koztah: Crecente's robe is scandalously short... He uses his flowing tresses to cover his nakedness. Until he is threatened, that is.

@zackek: I didn't notice that at first, either...

@Ursus-Veritas: Happy B-Day, Truth Bear! I'm so far behind on Doctor Who it's not funny. Catching up on Netflix though. I've FFXIII on pre-order, and I've taken the day off in anticipation.

@atrimus: On the one hand, I've liked ME2 so far... On the other, I played Peggle last night instead.

@Michael Dukakis: Bathtub Jen, anyone?

@Kiaza: Well, luckily there are sources including Kotaku that eschew the buy/don't buy, scale of 1-10 style of reviewing. And even without Kotaku, it's possible to get a pretty good idea about a game from reading a variety of reviews on Metacritic (not just reading the metascore, mind you, but the reviews) or other…

@evaxephon001: Really, they're not conversations... In radio, it's called 'theater of the mind', and it's a conceit that creates an illusion of place, in this case, of a workplace (Kotaku Towers) shared by the writers, and visited by the readers of Kotaku. It makes something that really doesn't exist as a place at…

@Bouzi...not a graphics whore!: No English fail, it's just the way I read it initially, and I decided to go with it. Your sentence makes sense the way you intended, but I prefer to think of you dry humping a stranger every time you hear the 'Amen break'.
