Excellent story telling!

Slow clap for this one.  I don’t know why it doesn’t have more stars but it was intriguing AND entertaining.  Nice work!

Okay, let’s see if I can make a long story short:

I finally have a good one!

I grew up in Napa, CA. We had “The Rebobs.” There was a road going outside of town that was long and windy and had an old fenced in cemetery at the top. This road also supposedly had “seven deadly curves”, ie. 7 different spots where someone had crashed their car and died.

Please everyone tell creepy stories I don’t want to wait until Halloween!

My hometown was the birth place of a famous (during his working years) painter. You know the painting of the signing of the declaration of independence? He painted that.

Sorry! Took the weekend off last week. I'm back and so too are Pokemon. 

Whew. Thought this feature was done for good.

Inject it into my veins now.

Zack, I gotta say man, since you took over weekends, I have started actively looking forward to weekend Kotaku because of gems like these.

I posted basically this, and I wonder sometimes why I bother.

I keep bees as a hobby, and it never occurred to me that only female combees can evolve, which is just awesome. Drone bees are basically useless and pretty much just exist as sperm receptacles.

So does my mother, she’s not that special

The character designs are borderlining on Liefeldian.
