I like to reward funny writing, especially when it comes in a sales email. The above headline, "10% Off Data Tapes. You Know You Want Them." came today from SuperMediaStore.com. The king of funny writeups is most definitely woot.com. If you want to see some creative work surrounding clearance items, check'em out.

Today's Penny-Arcade is laugh-out-loud funny and deserves special attention. The introduction from Tycho is quite a good tease:

This probably happens to everybody. Next time we're late for a date, I think we need to steal a vehicle that doesn't sport such a large, almost inescapable grill.

Maybe it's the stronger story in GTA IV than previous games, but I find myself shying away from stealing cars and instead tend to re-use ones I've parked outside my safe house or left in states of disrepair near a mission's conclusion as much as possible. And if I must steal one, I prefer not to have to break windows to get into them. I don't know if that keeps the police from noticing it or not. I just haven't played enough to find that out.
