Our site isn't all about traditional media, either. As we pass into our [[Video Games]] section, you can catch a glimpse of our [[Damsel in Distress]] tied to a post. (No, you don't have slay that dragon to rescue her, she's just an actress.) Often a princess in need of saving through some magical quest, she's almost always attractive, but is completely unable of saving herself.
