Every few years I find a drawer of expired gift cards and throw them out. One time I kept a one hundred pound gift card in my wallet for months on end, keeping it alive with balance checks in the store but never using it. My partner noticed this and said “just give it to me”, and promptly lost it forever in one of her handbags.

Obsession with character sheets comes from the misapprehension that the R in RPG stands for “roll” and not “role” imo.

Videogames have always had AI. The baddies don’t just drop down one row and come back across the screen anymore.

Same as what happened to “league”. Forget it, Jack - it’s Englishtown.

I gave up on Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close after one chapter. No wonder neurotypicals think autistics are just insufferable nobs.

We’ll always have the time we heard a podcaster pronounce the name of the town “Stroke-on-Tent”.

Reviews of some indie games were bought, it was asserted, because the games involved just wandering round a location investigating things (i.e. the diary notes in Resident Evil and System Shock) and didn’t even let you collect experience points like a proper masculine game.

I’m not going to be in a relationship with anyone who thinks “freewill” is a word.
