    Not bad at all.

    It's in the Valve/HTC merger video. It's "current projects" like "Half Life 3, Left 4 Dead 3, and Team Fortress 2" are canceled by the merger because the HTC executives "lack of interest".

    Nah, I mean someone throwing up a fake Hal-Life 3 steam page or something. It just feels like interest in Half-Life is so low that it's not even a good target for shitty online goofs anymore. Even that HTC video it's only a one line reference in a much larger video.

    You're thinking of Mallard Filmore, the one in the edit is from Bloom County, and neither are in Non Sequitir

    Non sequitur doesn't have set characters.

    It definitely had some recurring characters, I don't remember a penguin but I haven't read it in decades.

    itch.io is a game distribution service for indie games. It's basically a direct competitor to steam, so the joke is that now they themselves are going to be on steam.

    What article? It was a feature (last night I checked and saw it present) but it has been removed.

    The Mic Drop thing was real, on Twitter people started theorizing how people accidentally using it would look in certain situations, reports of such things actually happening occurred (still unsure if they actually happened or not, but that's besides the point), Google then removed it.

    I mean anything that you can accidentally click that adds weird shit to your email and then cuts off all replies forever is a super ridiculously bad idea that I'm amazed they ever approached.

    Maybe it's just patriotism speaking, but my favorite is still the one where the Swedish television channel said that you could get color television by cutting up some stockings and covering your television screen.

    I just wish they had been at a point in the game where he actually had to swing the stupid wiimote.
