The Armchair Nerd: A Special Musical Moment: "You Song" by Lil' Wayne Ft. Chance The Rapper
http://thearmchairnerd.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-special-musical-moment-you-song-by.html
Monday, September 2, 2013. A Special Musical Moment: "You Song" by Lil' Wayne Ft. Chance The Rapper. This song is explicit. If you don't like explicit songs, you won't like this.). You Song" off Lil' Wayne's newest mixtape Dedication 5. Is a special treat. It is a rare moment of tenderness and unguarded reflection, a song that cuts away the usual cartoonish rapper persona and exposes the man behind the character. Give you the world if it was for me. And now I'm flying on my PJ, looking at the clouds.

The Armchair Nerd: Curiosity: Where idiocy, genius, and opacity converge (and why it's bewildering)
http://thearmchairnerd.blogspot.com/2012/11/curiosity-where-idiocy-genius-and.html
Saturday, November 10, 2012. Curiosity: Where idiocy, genius, and opacity converge (and why it's bewildering). If I had to describe. I would say it is a deconstruction of why we play games that has no real point and may or may not be intentional. Curiosity- What's Inside The Cube. Vaguely satisfying sound effects are tied to the shattering. I can’t think of a way that the game could be described as interesting on its own merit without the help of curiosity and collectivist altruism. That is relevant here:.

Tuesday, August 7, 2012. The Articles That Matter" Archive.

So, here's all the "Articles That Matter". The mirror men of Arkane. Creating ...
