Years ago I made an expansion team in High Heat Baseball on the Xbox. You had to pick from a certain number of preset cities and team names, so I went with the MexicoCity Banditos.

I thought it must’ve meant fatty or greasy. Looked it up and I was pretty much right!

+1 just for using “oleaginous"

I think it would have been a decent idea to introduce an “easy mode” for DS2. The problem now is that the souls games have such a reputation for being difficult that no one who wants a casual experience is going to consider them.

Black Company is one of my all time favorite fantasy series. Although it does take a hard turn around the beginning of Books of the South, I feel like you can watch the quality of the writing improve with each book and the series begins to explore deeper themes as well as deconstructing what a world with unimaginably…

Contrary to popular belief, GW is not a game company. They are a miniature company that happens to make games to play with the miniatures. Otherwise they would both be making turn based 40kk/WFB video games and would learn how to write rules for their tabletop games that aren’t so ambiguous as to have multiple valid…

Generally, no, because the areas people are drinking in are not as easily accessed by the driver. This probably varies by state though.

That’s why I check in on Dresden Codak about 3 times a year. Although the Dungeons & Discourse strips are some of my all time favorites in the medium.

Horizontally oriented traffic lights are less susceptible to high wind damage. The More You Know!

I thought it was odd that I actually enjoyed it this week.. .

Uh...*why* does the appraisal board say “today in king of prussia”?
