Playing a game as it is intended to be played? Not cheating.

I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this. I’m a huge fan of the original manga and the anime, I even loved the live action Japanese films (at least the first two) for their decision to stay really close to the source material but take small chances with the plot so you could still be surprised. At first I…

Jesus, why did we at AV club to cover scifi material when we already have Gizmodo and io9? This was the height of pointlessness.

Counterpoint: I’ve had no problem inserting or allowing players to insert queer, racial, or any other themes we want into canned adventures. It isn’t hard for even an amateur GM. Their products should target as broad an audience as possible because at the end of the day they are a for profit company, and tightening…

My first play was a genocide run, and I feel not even slightly guilty about it. I spent my money on the game, I get to play it the way I want. In the end, genocide or pacifist, it was so damned derivative that I was bored to tears both times.

If you’re talking about post 9-11 comedy, there’s really only one thing you should mention.

I worked in a casino for seven years, I can pass along my helpful guide to gambling as well:

Could’ve basically just ended this article right after the picture of Trump.

It’s impossible for me to even hear the title Camptown Races without thinking of this:

If you’re coming to Oregon, pirate it. We’re expecting our data services, cellular and internet, to be overwhelmed.

At this point when I turn on the news and it’s more than two people set up in shoulders and up shots, I just turn it back off, and more people should do the same. It’s never a discussion that goes anywhere, no matter the network within seconds it degrades from conversation to a shouting match full of fallacious…

I...don’t think any, to be honest. Let me introduce you to a little word called “fornication.”

Nick, what the hell?

My favorite bit of cheating was from NASCAR’s Smokey Yunick, something of a prince of cheating and what we might politely refer to as “differential rules interpretation.” When a maximum fuel amount was instituted, he bypassed it by having a larger tank but inflating a basketball inside it, then deflating it after…

Another sage quote from a comedian, whose name sadly escapes me, is, “I’d rather see a pregnant woman stand than a fat woman cry.”

Eh, I still don’t have any desire to go beyond Civ V. The series really peaked there.

I have just done more research into ice cream trucks than I thought I would ever do (previously estimated amount required for my life: none) and apparently they use several different songs. In my region, it’s that exclusively. Sounds like this coming from a truck:

So the key to a woman’s heart is Do Your Ears Hang Low? Because that is unexpected.

It’s never a good sign when even the preview has terrible editing.

Indeed, people have been traveling across those waters since before the Roman Empire was a thing, there’s certainly been a goodly amount of genetic mixing, so sure, his ancestry prior to North America was probably Italian, and before that, definitely North African.
