Wait a second! It’s Friday? Hell yes! This shortened workweek totally threw off my inner calendar. Let’s celebrate my surprise early weekend by wrapping up this Friday with some off-topic conversation.
By the way, if you’re in LA this weekend, there are a few video game related things happening. The SUPER iam8bit book signing/gallery closing in Echo Park and the Nerdist + Underground Gaming Tournament League showdown. The former will have video game-inspired art, the latter some fighting game face-offs. Both seem like a fine way to spend a Saturday.
