I released screenshots of a Mario Party-esque board I'd created for Epic Minigames some time ago, and, despite my persisting sense of accomplishment, several (two) weirdos wanted me to understand that they didn't appreciate my deliberate preference for SmoothPlastic -- a material, which, as you might have guessed, gives objects a smooth, plastic finish. Now, while I do find it rude to give unwanted criticism, and find it equally as rude to soften the blow with unwanted praise, backhanded compliments don't particularly bother me. We're not reviewing ettiquette here; trite commentary coming from the mouth of a probable 12 year old is wholly unimportant. Instead, I've given myself a soapbox so you, my dear reader, understand the cost of consumerism.
