Last week the Cub Scouts made big news by announcing a video game belt loop. I don’t think I earned too many belt loops, but I believe they are the Cub Scout equivalent of merit badges. Also, I don’t believe your “credits” transfer when you graduate to Boy Scouts; the belt loops have to stay [...]
The other night I was playing Dr. Mario on the Wii online when I notice my opponent has chosen to give her Mii a double chin. Why, I ask, would anyone go out of their way to create an unattractive digital avatar version of themselves? If you were playing against people you’re never going to [...]
