One Game to Rule them All
Sluggy Freelance is doing a fantastic job skewering WoW in his recent Chapter titled Years of Yarncraft. Not that I don’t like MMOs, but strips like this morning’s remind me why sometimes I don’t miss them.

“This must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays.”
Someone needs to turn this statement into a t-shirt and more people need to write this down as some sage wisdom. I can’t decide if no one who has a boring desk job should think about the first 10-15 minutes...
in DC: the migratory gays
Interesting article in the Washington Business Journal reflecting the queer exodus from Dupont and surrounding areas. It talks to Dave Perruzza, owner of the primary 17th St bars, and David Franco, owner of Universal Gear that recently moved to a...

I’m a bit surprised and disturbed to realize that I still know most of the lyrics to the theme song for Freakazoid!, I mean “Steven Spielberg presents Freakazoid!” It was a commonly quoted cartoon among the theater/geek crowd and it’s...
You might not be gay, but your car is!
I can’t believe I didn’t hear about this already from BG. Vanity Fair just introduced a new online column called Stick Shift: The Gay Car Blog. The introductory post makes it clear the use of “gay” isn’t just a car-synonym...
