Me: “Oh shit! Don’t go to Chinatown!”
Chris: “You never go full-Chinatown.”
Jason: “Forget it, Jake.”
*blank stares*
Jason: “Really? No one gets that?”
Me: “Is it from Big Trouble in Little China?”
Jason: “What? No! It’s from the movie Chinatown!”
Jim: “There’s a movie named Chinatown?”
Chris: “With Kurt Russell?”

This week, I was the character who had a rather lackluster night. Almost everyone else had some major developments, but my night can be summed up as follows:

“I hung around the shipping yards. A Viking told me a story. I ate a bunch of pigeons. End of night.” Continue reading

Also because I can see his bridge from my desk *every day*

Today I was looking for more things to print up and decorate the half-wall next to my desk in my new office. Since our office is in San Francisco, I thought it only appropriate to properly honor our true liege-lord.

After a few minutes of searching through many images of actual photographs, I found this graphic by an artist going by the name Pacificvs. I liked it a lot, but it needed a little something else, so I puttered around in Photoshop and took things up to 11:

After the riotous fun of last week, this night was fairly calm. I referred to it as more of a “Politics Night,” filled with discussion and preparation for the next major plot points. I will elaborate on these discussions, of course, but if you want the thumbnail sketch, you can just read Chris’s summary:

You don’t even wanna know what I’d put on a conversation heart

This week for game night I did a whole Valentine’s theme because obviously, but I put a twist on it, in that the decorations were all dark and gothic-y, and the only hearts to be found were the marinated chicken-heart appetizers and the beef-heart stew. Anyway, the coup de grace was the ironic Valentine’s cards I made everyone.

Jason’s is, quite possibly, my favorite:
