Test your wits on the Slate Quiz for Dec. 19, 2024.
It's time to look at your yearly Steam recap and probably judge yourself.
Mine shows I played a lot of Dave the Diver and Talos Principle II, with a little bit of Balatro thrown in.
I posted this over at Bluesky and I thought it was worth asking here as well, because it was a real thing that happened to me: One day I disdained the idea of socks as a gift, and then it feels like literally the next I was all “Oh Hell YEAH socks” whenever new ones showed up, and I can’t be the only one who had this happen (and indeed not, if the Bluesky responses are anything to go by).
So: Socks! When did they become an awesome gift for you? And if they haven’t: Are you sure? Wouldn’t a nice pair of comfy socks just be the best thing right about now?

Clothes went from a dud gift to a great one the minute I first got a full-time job. At that point, I could afford to buy myself the types of things I normally thought were good gifts (video games, etc.), but I hate shopping for clothes, so a gift of clothes is a gift of less time spent shopping and more time playing video games.
