It's several days late, but screw it: it's time for THE SILLIEST TAKE OF (LAST) WEEK, because it's Friday night, and I know how to party. Many of these Silly Takes relate to the aftermath of the Charlottesville rally, because the Writers of Takes like nothing more than turning a horrible tragedy in grist for the #content mills.

I wrote a short piece about the little orange glow that surrounds a card if your opponent is looking at it, and why it's the best part of Hearthstone: http://ontologicalgeek.com/the-hearthstone-hover/
The Silliest Take of the Week: 8/13/2017
Hello, all! It's been a busy month for me of bar-exam-taking and then vacation-enjoying and then work-starting, but now let's get back to the important work: making fun of silly articles from the Internet.
