Mahogany Door Keyhole?

Tommy Tallarico – An Upscale Affair I place the MDK series on the highest pedestal of gaming, alongside Deus Ex and Half-Life. MDK also has the distinction of being the only game I have gone out and bought twice. I bought it on a CD years ago, but when I tried reinstalling it recently, it […]

Manami “Manabi” Amamiya is an energetic, cheerful girl who tries to do her best at everything. On the day she transferred to […]

Christmas Party Shenanigans

Pranking Uncle Allen with Silly String I participated in this event. It was rather fun. And messy. I wonder if he’ll be wary of presents in the future…
