Other people have said it, but yeah, a trip to the dermatologist is in order.

I used to work for a family owned video store chain, and they required you to be clean-shaven for every shift you worked (among other ridiculous, anti-labor policies).

I think that's my favorite thing about it. All the hints and bits and pieces of what's going on while you're wandering around the house.

It's entirely plausible. I do enjoy Michael Jackson's Moonwalker a lot more than I should, and I spent an inordinate amount of time trying to find an .ISO for Tail Concerto when I was in college.

I'd read quite a bit about how much the game focuses on stealth and feared I'd never be able to enjoy it because while I like video games, I'm often really bad at them. So I went ahead and just read the plot summary. And then I saw some videos of gameplay and was like, "Shiiiiiiit." I went out and bought it the next…

If we're being honest, the brief snippets of The Last of Us where I played as both Joel's daughter and Ellie were some of my favorite moments of the game. And Tomb Raider, for all its storytelling flaws, was pretty goddamned fun.

God damn it, that's a pretty respectable cover.

I was completely prepared to hate it, but it's a definitive improvement over the original. Not like there was much to work with, but it's definitely better.

But how are the load times in comparison to last year's game?

I was pretty fond of Jesus Caviezel back in the day before I gathered everything under the "Douglas J. Fresh" umbrella.

Exactly. We're getting married in October. During our "consultation" at Bed, Bath, and Beyond the incredibly friendly woman at the service counter told us to make sure and register for a multitude of things at widely varying price points so all our guests have options if they'd like to purchase gifts.

"Because face…

Ironically enough, I love Kurt Kalata's enthusiasm for gaming history but goddamn if that site's design isn't terrible.

I dislike watching old movies with nudity because 70's tits are the worst*.

UGH.

I had no clue they played in Lawrence last month. I would've gone! Dammit.

A scene whose inclusion serves literally no purpose whatsoever.

Fair point. And of course, this whole thing led me to spend ten minutes actually reading tons of information about New Coke, and then Coca-Cola in general.

Ahahaha. My fiancee and I were just talking about our old baseball/softball team names when we were kids, and one of hers was "The Surge."

In the late 80's, faced with surging sales by Pepsi, Coke decided to try a new "formula" to be successful again.

...I assume we're talking about Bill Self here, right?

Another incredible example of the use of "Ultra?"
