I name all my cities based on my low expectations for their success. I mean, if you're going to move to a city called "Disappointing Cove" or "Mediocre Meadows" ... you know what you're getting into.

I would argue that launch day titles would be compelling if they included 360 games optimized for better hardware.

I rocked a french press, grinder and toaster oven at one point. Had to get rid of the toaster oven. They claim it was because of a fire code, but I think they were afraid I was going to start charging visitors. :)

Well played, sir.

They built a better bus battery? That's bonkers! Better buy one before these better bus batteries are bought by the billions!

Joe, I just want to say that I agree with you 100%. Guns fire bullets that destroy things. That's it. Saying they have another purpose – threatening to fire bullets and destroy things – is not a valid defense in my book.

Yep. Completely agree. Star Trek has always been about optimism for the future.

How does a hipster burn his mouth? By drinking coffee before it's cool.

"Maggots!"

Well done! This made my Friday afternoon.

Three scenes + Sorkin = really, really long hallways.

Right? I'm thinking miniatures for D&D. How great would it be to load up some pre-designed terrain for a battle and have the player token show movement potential, attack range, hit points, etc.

Apple vs. Android flame wars are really just how people try to convince themselves they made the right purchase decision. No one wants to feel buyers remorse over an entire ecosystem of content. Better to ignore the flaws, say the other platform sucks and move along.

Agreed. As an 80's TMNT fan, I can't stand the new show. I personally think the first turtles movie is the gold standard for the series in terms of tone and characters.

When I was a kid, I loved the 80's TMNT. I had the Nintendo games, the Technodrome playset, the Pizza Hut cassette tape with Turtle rock songs... the whole works.

Why not? The upgrade costs to get the latest smartphone will be the same regardless of how long I wait. The only difference is I can sell back my existing phone for more money because it's newer. Just makes more economic sense.

For Windows phone, I would say it's the cross platform potential with Windows 8. I think that will really open up the app possibilities in the future. For Android, it's not really so much the software as it is the hardware versatility (I will admit that the new Galaxy Note II has me intrigued).

I don't have remorse over getting my iPhone 5. It's a solid smartphone and I've been in the app ecosystem for years. That said, it might be my last iPhone. Android and Windows phone are starting to offer me real, compelling reasons to switch. Combined with the fact that Apple kind of phoned it in with iOS 6... I'll be…

Tim Cook's "double down on secrecy" comment aside, I believe these leaks are the new normal. Us techo-geeks like to think that Apple's lost their surprise magic, but honestly, most people had no idea what it was going to look like. Jimmy Kimmel proved that.
