Okay, I know I said Urdnot Wrex is my favorite team member and that Grunt is my favorite character – and I stand by those solidly – but EDI is a super close second to both, and I really feel the need to discuss why. Just a slightly lengthy disclaimer: I would have preferred that…

So because I started playing the Mass Effect series with the second installment, I didn’t get to meet Wrex until I finally just purchased the first game, and once that happened, there was no way in hell I would let him get killed afterward. It wasn’t just because he was a universally beneficial team member…

Each of the three Mass Effect games have their charms, and I legitimately love playing them all. The first one is where it all begins, and you can start to see the relationships between your Shepard and their crew members develop; ME:2 is a solid sequel, with improved graphics and an equally engrossing storyline; and…

Unlike a lot of the media that I’ve done challenges on before, I can’t really pinpoint an exact time that Mass Effect came into my life. I kind of remember buying the second game without any information about it, either as a singular game or as a sequel, and after a few hours of play,…

I had told myself that I wasn’t go to involve myself in NaNoWriMo this year because of school and work and a general need to slow down a bit, but I changed my mind. I don’t expect to win, and I’m okay with that – I just want to get back into the swing of…

Friends is as much a primer on what not to do as it is what you should do. It was ridiculously successful during its run, taking risks – like having Monica sleep with Paul the Wine Guy on their first date in “The Pilot” – and capitalizing on its popularity with that oh-so coveted age…

Every time I see a post about a Friends revival, this is pretty much my response: And I’m saying this as a fan of the show. Friends was very much a TV show for its time, which is fine, but I really don’t want to find out what happened over the last almost twenty years…

I unironically love the kitschiness of a large chunk of advertising in the 90s. Do you remember the over-sized images in Skechers ads? Or the fun fonts in Delia’s catalogs? The simplicity yet over-the-top message of the Got Milk campaign? Well, promotional images for Friends followed a lot of the same trends, and I kind…

There really was never a question which was my favorite Phoebe creation, and I’m big enough to admit that I sing this song to myself almost daily. I found you in my bed. How’d you wind up there? You are a mystery, little black curly hair. Little black curly hair. Little black, little black, little…

It feels weird to be completely on time with this challenge, but hey, I’ll adjust to it. I mean, I only have, including this one, five more challenge posts, but I consider this an accomplishment. Anyway, as I’ve said before, when I finally watched Game of Thrones, I started in Season Seven. Now, I had…
