HGH Michelle Header

It’s Thanksgiving Day in America, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t be thankful right here in South Africa. I would just like to say thanks to Geoff for not taking my life (yet), thanks to the community for being awesome and not voting me “worst intern ever” in this year’s annual intern awards, and thanks to Steam for destroying my wallet… AGAIN!

In Other News: Everything is on sale, Oh look another sale, Free stuff, some pictures straight out of Japan, and pigeon lore in a minute.

Here’s the news we didn’t post because we were too busy drooling over the overseas specials we can’t have.

  1. Only because we didn’t know there was a worst intern award. Why didn’t you let us know sooner? Worst intern EVER!

    Independence day sequel? Is this one where the Android Tablet reprograms the enemy fleet to fly back to and then torch their own home planet?
