Is this a thing for Valentine’s Day? Chocolate dice

January 28, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It turns out that Amazon has no shortage of chocolate dice on offer. These dice are about as healthy as you’d expect, with all that sugar, dairy and nuts, but they are shiny and perhaps they’re just the surprise gift for that tabletop roleplayer in your life? The catch? I don’t think the dice on […]

January 18, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Beat Down Boogie’s cosplay video from the ever popular MAGfest. We can see the evolution of the cosplay video here with the use of Snake and Ghost to add a reoccurring element and far less emphasis on skimpy costumes. MAGfest started in 2002 and had about 20,000 geeks turn up this year. It’s held at […]
