Happy Birthday Y0j1mbo!!
Ali D \| 3:17 AM on 09.26.2009	48 comments

If you don't know who Y0j1mbo is, then shame on you. He has been Destructoid's resident old git for for as long as I've been hanging out here. From organising the PS3 FNF to writing some pretty excellent blog articles. He's the founder of the Dtoid Beard club (of which, I am Deputy Vice-chancellor!), he's shown us the wisdom of gaming on the shitter, and has his own fan art gallery.

But the best thing about Jimbo (as we like to call him) is that he's shown me that getting older and becoming a father doesn't mean you stop gaming. Jimbo wrote a great article about how one day his son beat him at Samurai Showdown 2. It things like this that have made me re-evaluate my feelings on becoming a dad.

So from someone who feels he's pretty old, but still 9 years younger than you, Happy Birthday man. Hope you have a good one!

I haven't been around here for too long but I have seen Y0j1mbo around quite a bit, and he does indeed seem like a cool guy. Also I need to know more about this Beard Club you speak of, which in all honesty should probably be called the Beard Brotherhood, seeing as real men do not join clubs.

about me

Uhhh, I'm a 29 year-old, married, bearded Scotsman living in Australia. I only moved to Oz from my hometown Glasgow three years ago, so I had to really sell all my games before I left, which was slightly upsetting.

Got an X-box 360, DS, Wii and a fairly new PC rig on which I do probably most of my gaming. Which is normally TF2, but Borderlands is taking up a lot of my time. Once that's done, Dragon Age Origins will take up the bulk of my time until Bioshock 2 comes out
Trying to find a find a The World Ends With You, Chrono Trugger and Henry Hatsworth on the DS. Trying to find them in Australia is like trying to find a butchers that sells haggis!
