Christmas is over, so it’s okay to be cynical and heartless again. Thank goodness. That was like holding my breath for a month. Anyway, thanks to Jansolo for this one:

Crash Dot Com
Back in 1999, I rode the dot-com bubble. Got rich. Worked hard. Went crazy. Turned poor. It was fun.
Quakecon 2012 Annotated
An interesting but technically dense talk about gaming technology. I translate it for the non-coders.
Overused Words in Game Titles
I scoured the Steam database to figure out what words were the most commonly used in game titles.
Rage 2
The game was a dud, and I'm convinced a big part of that is due to the way the game leaned into its story. Its terrible, cringe-inducing story.
The Best of 2013
My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2013.

Haha! I caught this on another site, but its pretty funny. I’m a big 24 fan. Some of the editing is a little sketchy but it works out just fine.
never watched an episode of 24 before but that was Brilliant.
“You’re on the naughty list.”
“You son of a bitch!”
:p
LoL… that’s hilarious.
“And Jack…. Merry Christmas”
Nice. I have never watched 24 but I enjoyed it.
You should keep Christmas in your heart all year through.
I can’t wait for the return to normalcy! Now if only people would stop referring to current events as ‘after Christmas…’
There are 12 days of Christmas ‘tween the 25th of December and Epiphany.
That movie is done excellently! Good laugh.
That is excellent.
In a similar theme, but even more elaborate and full of win (IMHO), check out the two-part Rare Exports:

I always knew Santa was a terrorist.
And speaking of Rare Exports there’s also a movie in the works!

Rare Exports definitely win. Freakin’ BRILLIANT.
@ #10:
Santa is clearly a Canadian. He lives in the Arctic Circle, comes down to the States and leaves boxes under trees. Typical M.O. of the Canadian Shopper.
Strange that no one else has commented this way, but I kinda found that Santa to be the creepiest mofo I’ve seen in a long time. I think I enjoyed the video (and the concept was neat), but it was disquieting in a way I can’t really describe. That may have a lot to do with the fact that Bauer is always so intense. :)
Was going to comment, but then I realized I was going political””I’ve never been a fan of the implicit politics of 24, so I liked the way that this parody calls them into question.
Is that within bounds? I appreciate the culture of this site, so I don’t want to do anything to poison the well.
