Remember that time on Facebook, when someone posted a picture of their Kallax, proud of their collection, and someone commented about the lack of good games in their collection? I do. It happened last week. And the week before. And the week before that. Sometimes people seem to think there's something cool, something special, about not liking things. But to quote Rodney Smith, and yes I want this on a mug, "It's Not Special To Not Like Something". There's a time and place to be negative. And it's never when someone else is excited about something.
