I have been mucking around with Unity and trying to create a simple game. My partner felt sorry for me and bought me this:
I also got a couple of nice knives, since I love to cook, and some DLC for one of my games on Steam (Cities: Skylines).
What did you get?

That is, bar none, my favorite magazine cover of all time. I am so jealous. I hope the rest of the mag is as good. I miss National Lampoon. I used to read them growing up. My dad had a huge collection, but never had that one. It's rather rare, I am told, as it is a collector's item.
