Become big in Japan: writers wanted photo

We interrupt your video game Web site for this important Destructoid Network announcement. Our sister site Japanator is currently looking for new intern writers, as we are currently in the process of redesigning and are looking for some fresh blood to coincide with the new kickoff. We can't say much yet, but the new site is going to be so money despite the fact that I refrained from including penis tentacles all over the page. Look for the new look and features in March.

Why write for Japanator? You're about to have serious package envy: We are also extremely happy to announce that one of our Japanator writers landed a salaried writing gig for a big wig (he can't say who yet), so if you have aspirations of sitting around in your underwear and writing about your opinions on anime and how weird Japan is for a living, we're obviously a really great place to start (which is also a surprise to us). Interested? Holler: niero@destructoid.com. Konichiwa, putos.

So back to this video game thing: NextLust has a short and sweet list on how Vista handles popular PC games. Read Adam's Red Bull & Diesel Boy nervous breakdown.

Adam's article is pretty good for the 5 people that bought Vista.

I may be in Japan but I'm not a Japanophile, so its probably not for me.

I would consider applying for the movie writing gig, but it's been years since I was an interwebs writer person. I was out of that before blogs even existed.

If I new more about Japan and and the subject content of Japanator, I'd probably take you guys up on this offer. I love the country and the culture, and actually considered moving there to try to find an audio engineering job on day.

My anime that I watch is mainly dictated by Adult Swim and I prefer dubs over subs. I also have never touched a manga in my life, an I haven't eaten japanese food in probably a decade (Too expensive).

(I also hate Inuyasha...with a passion...)

Len, you may blog fully clothed, but I can't afford such luxuries. I'm friendly enough that I won't punch you in the face when you send in an application!

Also, cocks.

Would I automatically get the job if I mentioned that I have a packet of pocky right in front of me...?
Hrn, I would be pretty interested in this, but I got kind of bored of anime a few years back. Still loves me some FLCL though. Moviekick site would certainly be appealing, but musipoon is where I'd want to be at.
