This song, "Bravest Face" by Rush, is not the most reassuring one in the world, but as of late, it's been helping me get up in the morning. Though we might have precious little It's still precious I like that song about this wonderful world It's got a sunny point of view And sometimes I fe...

Looks like you guys are light years ahead of me. I told my computer "Tea, Earl Grey, hot" like three years ago and still nothing.

Would you believe that Sid doesn't take Visa?

I tried Charlie's Gnarly Barley and Bombs, but apparently satchel bombs are seasonal.

So after a long, long, loooooooong Vampire: The Requiem campaign finally came to an end, my small group is embarking on a fascinating new adventure: One-Shot Roulette! Every session I'm going to be taking my group through a radically different one-shot using the Savage Worlds or World of Darkness sy...

Hey guys, me and the wife are headed out for an evening on the town, but I could use some help with romance. Anybody got a lead on where I can get ten satchel bombs, a sports car to stick them all to, a sniper rifle to pick off the survivors, and a spunky Chablis?

Don't call it a comb-back, I'll have hair for years. Hey everybody. It's been a while, hasn't it? Since we last spoke I've changed my major twice, moved house, developed mild-to-moderate agoraphobia, got myself addicted two, count 'em, two different MMOs, and had the only person I even remotely like...

It started twelve years ago, and shows no signs of stopping. Oh sure, there were summits in Malta and Vancouver and Vostok Station, but those were the essence of the "foregone conclusion." My St. Geiger's counter clicked merrily on my wrist as I settled against the windowsill. The bombed o...

Dutch guy's on repeat again. Somebody get the vice grips.

William Shatner.

Who said the following quote? "If I were to walk across the surface of the Potomac one Sunday morning, that day's paper would read 'PRESIDENT CAN'T SWIM.'"

Okay, so the Initiative is as follows: Heidi Ghost Man Webhead Nate (Mark, starting next round) (Big Nate, starting next round) Heidi, you've got the first go. Ghost-Man whirls at the sound of gunfire, a snarl curling his lip as he turns to face you. You hear the bell above you toll a few times. You...

Let's get this party started! BOSS FIGHT!

22 damage from Love, 10 from Hate.

This guy I know named Kenneth.

How many amendments are there to the United States Constitution?

"Don't you think we're a bit past the whole 'stand down' idea?" Kenji snarls, muttering something under his breath about "gaijin" as he aims to fire at the soldier recovering his weapon.

Rolled a 12.

Prohibition.

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?

That seems like an awfully specialized bit of machinery. I feel like you'd be hard-pressed to get your money's worth out of it.

I need a name for a character in a story I'm writing. Their gender is as yet undecided. What names spring to mind?

Fahrenheit 451 is classic, and has a lot to say on the subject of censorship, paranoia, and loss. Having shed fat, massive tracts of it don't make any sense on the first read. Or the third. Most of my recreational reading is comics these days. There's some great stuff going on in the indie comics sc...

So, House of Cards. It has more or less entirely abandoned its original premise to become a West Wing knockoff running on Kevin Spacey's charisma alone. Fortunately, Spacey's charisma holds up for the time being. Also, I don't get why Frank Underwood is portrayed as this conniving mastermind. All he...

A tepid reaction. They don't get on well.

What Russian policy, literally translating to "restructuring" is credited as the primary factor that brought the Cold War to an end?

The princess isn't there. I already checked.

I OBJECT TO YOUR PRO-PISTACHIO VALUES

Also that banner is very tacky.

Poland

Who is commonly known as "The Fifth Beatle?"

The left.

Which United States president ran for election under the slogan "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too?"

You say deficit, I say gelato.

Mmm, gelato.

Wow, thanks! I didn't expect anyone to go through that much effort. The Sager laptops do look really cool. My own research certainly can't turn up the same bang-for-buck even without considering the summer special.
