They made a Subway Maker game. They made an open-source drill-writing program.

If they make HABS Photography, The RPG, I’m fucking DONE.

There were people who recognized the reference. Which I DEEPLY appreciate.
For those of you that can’t make it to REDACTED: OCEAN’S 11 tonight (GMan Tavern, doors @ 7), I’ll let you know how this joke goes.

As long as we’re winging half-considered opinions out there, are we still allowed to fondly remember Keith as Dan or Casey from Sports Night? And subsequently he legally became a wholly different entity for the purposes of nostalgia and esteem?

I remember the first time I saw The Sixth Sense, too.
i understand why people are mocking the bamboo stuff - it’s a big fish in a small barrel - but as someone who is not a fan of the author i do feel like like i gotta hand it to to him: that post is very well written.

Hmmmmmmm - I suspect something crazy/bullshitty has happened today, but I’ve been busy… do I want to pursue this?

Afflicted with walk-off FGs in both games of personal importance this weekend. I know my sins are manifold, but this particular purgatory seems ill-devised.

Lucy, pointing at the TV: "Hey, that's not true! The phone says 19, but the TV says 16 Bears!"

Me: "Oh, well, that's a relief."

Good news, bad news, it's all standard weekend heart rate at this point. That was exciting!
