Hey, dudes. It's Valentine's Day, and guess what? None of your tired ideas are gonna cut it this year. Face it,…
I have that one in my queue but haven't got around to it. Another one I would recommend from Netflix is The Awakening, set in an allegedly haunted boarding school. The period setting is more recent but it also has a very gothic atmosphere.
No love for the PJ Harvey cover of "Red Right Hand"?
This is a classic example of hearing "OH MY GOD ARE YOU ILL? YOU LOOK AWFUL" all day when you forget to put on eyeliner.
Oh. My. God. That last one just broke my heart.
John Mulaney - Special Victims and Ice-T:
Whoa there Kotaku, that's rather brave of you to say Amazonian Warriors is better than Civ 5.
