Evening Reading

So this evening I'll be gambling fake money at the IGDA QuakeCon poker tournament where I hope to say many mean things to the many game developers who will be playing there. Yes you had a better hand than I did, but your game is going to sell like crap. Die. For this evening:

Hybrids selling
Deep on Mars
Nokia > Motorola
Apes love charades

Lastly, cab drivers dont like the idea of GPS. Surprise!

        See, that's too much. I'd be happy if it were 66F year-round.

        But I'd have to go outside to get inside. You can see the dilemma I'm in.

    no. I can't imagine it'd be that much easier to get laid by a non-insane woman. Add in that both are women it squares the insanity in a relationship. /shiver
