It must be weird at the big genetics conference or whatever when Sally is all "Oh, I'm trying to find possible markers for a higher risk of cancer" and Donald, while he munches a celery stick tells Dale that he is working on genetic therapy for Alzheimer's, and Robbie is all "I wanna find out why 1 out of 20 assholes don't like my salsa."

I just checked my calendar, and it's still 2012. How does The Atlantic justify sending a writer who clearly knows fuck all about games to interview the World's Most Pretentious Man about how he is going to finally bring intellectual credibility to the biggest sector entertainment industry by making a puzzle game?

Damn, on my one trip to Charleston, I visited Jestine's, but only for brunch. Need to get back there.

Meanwhile, if you're looking for a fried chicken fix closer to home and don't have the keyboard skills to snag a 'fuku reservation, try Popeye's.
