He doesn't like the mole on his nose. Other than that, he likes his face, and wants to show it to the world. yes... I'm sure that's it...

I, for one, am fairly happy that Google+ is falsely reported to be "troubled". It keeps away the inane drivel that prevented me from using other, similar, sites. Keep up the good work, Escapist!

Yup, to all of that.

I read "Kingdoms of Amateur", and was really confused for a bit. Ah, well.

Dark Angel. That shouldn't have been killed off either.

One of our pet rats once got very interested and sniffed around my face when I had some beer. I opened my mouth to let him smell it, and he pulled on one of my teeth with his. Weird feeling. Kinda like an inverse putting-your-head-into-the-lion's-mouth.

While I agree with your points, my biggest gripe is that the storytelling is as subtle as a sledgehammer in the face. There are no plot surprises. I'd just have expected a little bit better here and there. The worst bit to me - *MILD SPOILER ALERT* - was that there was no way to indicate to...

I've got to say, fuck these stupid interstitial ads. And yes that's vaguely off topic. They start a few seconds after the video starts, and completely mess with full screen playback. Either start them at the start, or don't screw with the user experience so badly, please. Preferably both.
