Hosting the annual <a href="http://www.gamechoiceawards.com/">Game Developer Choice Awards</a> is no joke -- but one does require plenty of amusing witticisms to make it off the stage alive. Double Fine's Tim Schafer has foolishly agreed to host the show again this year, prompting a mad quest to find the lolz necessary to combat the lulls. If you want to <span style="font-style: italic;">pretend</span> to help him out, you can play the amazing adventure game, <a href="http://www.doublefine.com/news.php/site/comments/host_master_and_the_conquest_of_humor/"><span style="font-style: italic;">Host Master and the Conquest of Humor</span></a>. <br /><br />Us? We're going to rescue the man from catastrophic embarrassment by offering the following jokes, free of charge:<br />

    <li>"Grand Theft Auto IV's a big contender tonight. Is anybody surprised? I know I'm not the only one who had a great time cruising around in stolen vehicles, running over prostitutes, doing stylish, drive-by shootings -- and then thought, 'Man, somebody should make a game out of this!'"</li>
