Darwin kept a record of the backgammon games. When Emma died, he was ahead 2,795 to 2,490. I looked it up because I was curious if he only played because he won, but the two of them were pretty even.
“I heard shaking from your bedroom” “I play backgammon with my wife” “Twice a day??” “Yes. Why?” “Nothing… it’s that I just saw your wife at the market…” And that’s how myth starts.
128 ollies believe it or not. I don’t know whether to believe it or not. 128, wow! Ollies, wow! Should I pretend to know what an ollie is because I really have no idea. Maybe Stan knows.
Mario Kart might be the most stressful video game but it pales in comparison to some of the commuting I had to do when driving to the Norfolk Naval Base. They had gates allowing two lanes of traffic. Every car had to stop to show ID’s. By the time I got to the ship, I felt like I had worked a full eight hours. I aged rapidly then.

When they did that survey all the Dark Souls players were still too busy smashing their controllers to respond.

“Mario Kart” refers to a whole series; there’s no one game with that exact title.

Wooo! Those Darwins! Living the high life! Do you suppose they made the game – more exciting – with some – side wagers?
