Since I'm linking, we just got these awesome black cards [link] as well as this deck that looks like it's a hundred years old. [link]

I personally hate card games, but we've been dinking with using cards as randomizers in lieu of dice in some RPG systems. This is something Deadlands started, and it's been pretty decent depending on the system and what you are going for. The way the deck looks can help the whole flavor of the game.

Maybe it doubles as some new Wii controller for a virtual shaving game.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

My wii fit is being so mean to me today. First it asked me if I fall over when I walk, then when it told me my "wii fit age" first it said "43" and then the 3 crumbled into a 4. wtf wii fit? I'm still happy though, I've lost 4 pounds and 4 "years".

I think it's supposed to motivate you. I chose the female trainer. One day the dude showed up and said, "I hope you don't mind, I'm filling in for your regular trainer." He did one exercise and I haven't seen him since.

Man, that is bizarre. I had no idea the Wii Fit was mildly sentient.
