Think (ADJECTIVE)
I’ve already confessed on here that when it comes to Apple products, I’ve got less self-control than Eve, Snow White, and the guy from American Pie put together. So the day after they announced the new iMacs, I made the pilgrimage to the local Apple store just to feel of them. (Key finding: the 24″…
I can has all your base?
Hay guyz does anybody has seen that hilarious Hampster Dance page?!? Nothing can make you feel like a dinosaur faster than trying to keep up with the internet memes. The people already have a dozen parodies out on the youtubes before I’ve even seen the first one. Luckily Ape Lad is on top of the…
You can’t go WOOF WOOF WOOF again.
For this vacation, the family’s been indulging me in a bunch of nostalgia trips. The other day was The Georgia Aquarium, which is tough to be nostalgic for seeing as how it only opened a few years ago, but it was my first time back in downtown Atlanta in a long time. For the record:…
I don’t know much about power-ups, but I know what I like
I’m going to take a short break from not updating my award-winning* series of posts about storytelling in videogames, because the whole “Are videogames art?” debate has flared up again this week. People are already tired of the debate, and for good reason. But I can’t tell if people are tired of it because they…
Glad that’s over

Can I get an extension for having to spend a whole day driving back from San Diego, then the next day flying back to Georgia, then the next day sleeping? Plus another extension for having nothing particularly interesting to say except…
Spaz Diego
Well, here I am in beautiful San Diego in about the most unbeautiful place you can imagine, the San Diego Comic Con. At one time I thought that it’d be impossible to cram as many people into one place as they do at Tokyo Disneyland. I know better now. It’s neat to be walking around…
Lawful Good
On Monday (or was it last week?) I saw a friend I haven’t seen in a long time, and he asked how I was liking the new job. I’m so used to answering that question by launching into a string of complaints or highly-qualified compliments, that it surprised me I couldn’t come up with much…
Damn you all to
The easiest way to tell that The Sopranos is a great show is that so far, the second season has been really good, and I’m disappointed by it. Everything that’s bugging me about it is a barely-perceptible nitpick, and each point is noticeable only because the first season set the bar so high. Like the…
