Pfft, like he’s ever eaten anything HALF as lean as a game animal.

I was at a work conference and the American Loss Prevention Association was setting up a coffee table in an adjacent hall at the convention center. I walked over and took a donut.

You’ve got to admire the inventor of coffee, ‘cause damn if it isn’t a VERY counter-intuitive thing. Like:

Hey, here’s a fun activity: Post the video game title that most accurately describes your current love/sex life.

Have you all considered just going outside instead?

By modern American standards, I am a wild, dangerous iconoclast: I have no piercings or tattoos whatsoever and I assume my pubic hair is there for a good reason.

These are folk who would really love to make 45K a year but haven’t ever quite gotten there.

I always like to imagine that Marilyn Monroe is not, in fact, standing over a heating grate, but rather is just letting a really rich one rip.

Some people just hate rolls and bread.

My wife had an interesting playbook: Study real hard for tests, but never do homework (at least not in high school).

Immature, even. Add in a mildly disabling medical condition and then you really can’t play games like this. Them’s the breaks.

It’s an odd thing: I have two groups of friends, some of them are chronically un/underemployed humanities doctorates. They’ve made huge life sacrifices to pursue the work they love and it seems pretty unlikely they’ll ever be financially rewarded for it.

Y’know who’s even more liberal than the Assemblies of God? Motherfucking. Anyone.

Ori and the Blind Forest is not an exclusive: It’s on PC.

Thorin, your colleague Albert Burneko over on Adequate Man already did the definitive run-down (or, if you prefer, takedown) of Xbox One:
