Burger King to Introduce BK-Branded Xbox Games

Against the legal powers that be, Gawker gaming site Kotaku is reporting Burger King will offer its customers BK-branded Xbox games. It’s a promotion that offers one of three games (action, fighter, racing) with the purchase of a Value Meal. The creepy King will be featured in all the games. Kotaku writes, “The action game is apparently similar to Halo, while the fighter combines Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat.”

Greenfield Online, the company that did preliminary research for the creation of the games, is none too pleased and has sent a nasty legal letter to Gawker headquarters asking Kotaku to remove the story. They aren’t going to. I mean it’s all rather pointless anyway. Once the information’s out. it’s out. It’s not like you can erase it so move on Greenfield and deal with it.

I’m 65 and my wife had an affair 23 years ago and we survived it—therapy, tears, rebuilding, the whole architecture of repair—and the marriage now is good, genuinely good, but there are still moments when she laughs at her phone and something in my chest tightens for exactly two seconds before I can talk myself down, and those two seconds are the scar’s rent, and it pays on time every single month

Research suggests that people who are willing to accept change as they get older live significantly longer than those who resist it — not because change is healthy but because resistance is expensive and the body pays a biological price for every year spent clenching against a reality it cannot control and that clenching is aging people faster than the change itself ever could
