This. When you meet someone else who likes this game. You can't help but high five them. It's manditory. Hugging, however, is entirely optional.

This week saw the first draft of an openly gay NFL player. It makes me sad to call myself a gamer this week. The folks who beat me up in school are now more progressive than gamers are.

Someone's not gotten a new job and had to send the awkward facebook message of "Hey, remember the time when I occasionally expelled bodily fluid on your face? Yeah I didn't expect to meet you again either. How do you wanna play it?" Sex is the most complicated thing in our society and...

I suppose we'd have to go back to Wicker... Only all the bees are dying now.
