Games, writing, general geekery. ADRIFT v5 IntroComp Reviews (2012). It's sad to see that of the six games in this competition, only ONE has a fully proofread. Introduction sequence. Not a good sign.

Applause for Chris Christie is less than deafening at the RNC, which is too bad because I might've enjoyed his keynote speech more if I hadn't been able to hear it. It's disgusting. This entire convention so far has consisted of watching elephants try to fart like mice. These people are applauding getting rid of teachers? Shame on them. And shame on Republicans for running people out of their jobs. What is this steam blowing behind Chris Christie?
