Some spoilers — read at your own risk.
I am not a huge gamer. I only own a Wii and a DS and I don’t really play video games anymore. That said, I do still enjoy them, and I’m part of a rather large generation who’s imaginations were ignited by the release of Ocarina of Time for the Nintendo 64.
Since then, I’ve done my best to keep up with the Zelda series and,...

dyst0piate asked: So I've never been able to pull off Japanese street fashion, but I've always loved it and wanted to. Now that I'm finally getting close to my goal weight I'm planning to incorporate some of that into my wardrobe. However, I've been out of the game for years and I don't know the modern brands at all, and barely remember what I used to know beyond really liking Black...

Client: We really want the design to be modern and cutting edge graphically. Big “wow-factor.” It needs to look very modern. Me: Great!

clientsfromhell:
I worked at a movie theater over the summer.
Client: What’s The Help about? Is it good?
Me: I haven’t seen it yet, but our synopsis says it’s about race relations in Mississippi in the 1960s. Specifically, white families and the black help.
