Three months after the compact disc hit retail, there were more people listening to the Beatles' White Album on vinyl or cassette than on CD.

"I'll show you what assault and the Stand Your Ground law are meant for in my state."

I used to think Superman sucked. Then I read Kingdom Come and Red Son.

What the fuck is a Google?

No one who speaks German could be an evil man!

What this really says is that people as too stupid to use google

The biggest disappointment for me is all the wonderful concept art that didn't make it. So much interesting promotional material has sprung up during the game's development, and we get this bland cover. It has as much personality as a saltine.

That's not a drawing. Asian people just look like that.

No, your vague and clever wordplay has left me utterly flabbergasted. Would you throw her an unbirthday party or something?

A six-month upgrade cycle is pretty much unheard of in ANY industry, even tech. Apple has been crunching releases closer and closer every year.

Chris Bachalo, Marc Hempel, and Jim Mahfood. Interesting styles that are instantly recognizable.

Oh, good. I thought maybe they'd be tasteless and creepy.
