Sometimes the graboid will be very easy and sometimes it’ll be as obscure as obscure gets. So read the news, read the … Continue reading →
As traditional gatherings take place across the country, from familial get-togethers to ritualistic sacrifice, the one thing I’ve noticed is that after the feasting has commenced, most sit down to watch some form of entertainment.

There’s this huge subculture of gamers whose pockets seemed to be stuffed … Continue reading →
I think I’m pretty much all set with M. Night Shyamalan. I mean, I liked The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable just fine, but I hated the hell out of Signs, with its hamfisted bullshit about faith and baseball and things happening for a reason and the most retarded alien invaders since the Psychlos.
