My only mask manners items would be:

1. Showing your nostrils while wearing a mask is equivalent to showing your ass crack while wearing jeans. Showing your mouth too is like walking around in public with your jeans around your ankles.

2. Even when you’re talking on your phone, you’re still inside the damn grocery…

Remote Control was fun, especially Sing Along With Colin.

But it also kind of marked the beginning of the end of MTV’s heyday and relevance, aka “remember when they played music videos?” as far as I’m concerned.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised it was all about “engagement,” the pursuit of which is what makes social…

The thing is, this “higher quality” version is really not good. The individual samples are higher resolution but the mix does not gel. “It sounds like MIDI,” as a friend of mine said about some video game music of the late 90s.

This version is not the music exactly as the composer intended it. It’s a remake, an…

I’m still trying to understand Cate Blanchett as Lilith, and now this choice just makes my head hurt.

So at this point, my predictions are: 
Brick: Leo DeCaprio
Mordecai: Amy Shumer with a fake mustache
Scooter: Sir Ian McKellen
Claptrap: Wesley Snipes

I found that the “best face Mask for glasses wearers” from Conico (conicoshop.com or Etsy) doesn’t fog up much. I make sure the nose part is way up high (almost in my eyes) and my glasses perch on them, helping to close it off.

Also they are one of the few masks with ear loops that I find comfortable. Before I found…

Also, I don’t really think there’s anything wrong with using dead memes.

XBox Tail Grab
XBox Frontside Heelflip
XBox 50-50 Grind
XBox Pivot Fakie

I’m still not sure whether “XBox Series X” is better or worse than “Wii U” (I look just like Buddy Holly)

We’ve never had any trouble just microwaving butter until it can be poured (and mixed by hand). It doesn’t brown, and it doesn’t separate into different layers/densities of liquid as if the emulsion has broken.

This was a fun article to see. For a couple of years I performed with a taiko group, and it is indeed a hell of a workout. More so with full-weight bachi and real drums and dancing around, but even the plastic ones that come with the Hori controller will burn calories when you do it enough.

For the most extreme taiko…

There’s this guy, Jim Spanfeller, you’d probably get along great with him. He was adamant that Deadspin “stick to sports.” I hear that worked out just great.

Huh, I got bored and frustrated with Warframe pretty quickly.  It was either grind the same missions over and over, or face areas that inevitably killed me before I could finish any quests.

I’ve never tried Hades. Is it good?

I believe her full name is Eddie Covered in Bees! Aaaaaagh! Izzard.

The only times I spit are when I’ve got some bad phlegm (and it goes in a tissue) or after I brush my teeth (and it goes down the sink).  Somehow I’ve made it 49 years without spitting in public spaces.

I’d be happy to play an MMO, as long as it’s a “smooth ride” sort like Guild Wars 2. I tried Minecraft, Breath of the Wild, Warframe, and: big meh. But I still go on GW2 binges every few months, while wishing for some new world and new mechanics to play with.

It’s freaking expensive to develop an MMO, and if you cut…

On the one hand, crunch represents a failure of management and/or intentional exploitation of labor by management, and it sucks.

On the other, the people doing “creative vision and innovation in direction and design” are probably not the ones who set the schedules, budgets, hiring practices, company policies and so on.

Fonzie notes that the paint itself appears to be very delicate

This brings back memories of working in a game studio where most of the artists would climb onto their desks and disable the fluorescent ceiling lights by turning them in their sockets. Every couple of weeks, a maintenance guy would come through and replace all the (perfectly good) bulbs. The next day, the artists…

The problem with this is, high prices or brand names do not guarantee lasting quality by any means.  I’ve paid $30 for t-shirts that lasted for less time than an $8 shirt.  I’ve paid $60 for jeans that lasted for less time than a $20 pair.  And so on.

I hope they used too much HDR processing and saturation boosting on all these photos, because it can’t possibly look like this and still be a part of this plane of existence, can it?
