Spoilers
So there’s a bumper sticker just to give away the ending to the new Harry Potter. I’m thinking of making my own spoiler stickers… Something like “The ship sinks” or “It’s a sled.” Or a whole line of English major/Classics … Continue reading
Princess Maker
I’m a little insulted by the top ten girlfriend-friendly games list on www.1up.com. It’s a good concept, girls tend to like like different games than boys do, and there are a bunch of great games that girls love. The Sims, … Continue reading
