Perhaps out of a momentary lapse of judgment spurred by an escalating "bath salts" addiction, Destructoid has recruited me as a features intern to provide event coverage, new feature series and video content for the site. In the past I've written for Escapist Magazine, Bitmob and The Daily Texan.

Everyone loves lists and everyone loves talking about themselves, so let's see if I can combine the two and come out with a list that will surely spur 100+ comments of nothing but pure love.

I mean, that's completely reasonable, right?


5. I Love Chad!

I have the lovely Chad Concelmo to thank for recruiting me. He traveled across the nation on the Destructoid bus, looking for the strongest, sexiest and most intelligent men he could find. Then he got a flat in Austin, TX and settled on me.


4. I do things for YOU!

Perhaps I won't give you a virtual make out session, but I will be providing readers of this fine site with event recaps, game designer interviews and features that focus on obscure, wacky games that you will want to check out. You can start by checking out my Thor Wii release party recap tomorrow. But, hold tight: the wacky is a comin'!


3. I go to the university Tara Long went to!

Any fans looking for their own private stalker detective, ask me about pricing!


2. My favorite games are most likely not your favorite games...

But, that's a good thing right? I grew up on an Atari ST and lived out most my life playing console classics and forgotten PC titles. In recent years, I've discovered awesome Japan-only console and arcade games from the 90s. Stay tuned to hear which ones are worth your time.


1. I love corgis!

I've always loved Destructoid for its unique personality, features and audio/video content. It's so exciting to be writing for a site that gives so much freedom to its community and writers. I look forward to hearing back from you guys on future articles -- even the terribly mean ones with skeletons and marijuana leafs for their avatar!

I once had a grey wolf as a pet. Minnie is what we called her. Since then I've become biased when it comes to wolves. My user name ain't Wolfy-Boey for nothin'.

Anyway, welcome to destructoid! I look forward to your writings.
Greetings and Welcome!
If you didn't love Chad, well, we have no place for those type of people.
Can't wait to read good things from you.
I actually own a Corgi. He's a bit of a coward and a little fat, but I love the guy.

Also, you want to know what is int he top ten list of things I love? Top ten lists.

I'm glad we can have this chance to meet and talk and congratulations!

And Welcome!!!
Hey, I already commented, what happened to the older version?

Anyway, I LOVE CHAD TOO!

@Law: Awwww... I didn't know you had a corgi!
corgi's are cute! Welcome to Dtoid!
Let's all give Allistair a classic Destructoid welcome! COMMENCE THE INAPPROPRIATE TOUCHING! :)
@rexwolf2,
That was my fault. I was trying to "help" and I accidentally deleted his first blog post.
Oops. :)
Hmm...I’m indifferent to corgis, wouldn’t say they’re in my top five. And who doesn’t love Chad, he’s like if ice-cream was a person.

Also, to test your faith, I’ll be changing my avatar to a skull with marijuana leafs in the eyeholes.
@Chad: It took me a good minute to stop chuckling. Never stop causing good-natured mishaps, okay? ;)
<_<

>_>

*opens the rape closet*
Welcome to Destructoid. I presume Chad has told you about Post Naked Pictures Of Yourself Everywhere Saturday. My advice is to really get into the spirit; start the ball rolling by posting some on front page comments, put a bunch in a cblog, then drop a load in the forums.

Don't forget to post plenty in the DToid Chat, too.
Congrats!!
@CaptainBus: Now, when you say 'drop a load in the forums' with reference to Naked Saturday...
Haha rad man! I'll call you to do my stalking! And yeah, those skellingtons avatar's sure are scary! Can't wait to see what you have to offer, hopefully a handfull of Corgi pictures, are you a regular at OCD , obsessive corgi disorder? xD
Corgis are obviously the product of God and Jim Henson getting their collab on.

Welcome to Destructoid. Here is your decoder ring and an avocado that looks like the Virgin Mary. Enjoy your time with us. We look forward to taking this journey with you. Shine for us and your brilliance with cause our vanilla frosting hearts to burst with true joy.
Listen to everything CaptainBus says. He is very wise. :)
[insert random condescending comment here]

Looking forward to your articles!
Hey, welcome to Dtoid. The G-Unit thing is the best Chad image of all time.

Isn't that the tower where a guy holed up and shot a bunch of people in the 60s?
Japan only games from the 90s? We can be friends.
I also love Chad. Also Holmes. And from time to time, even that strapping Sterling fellow. And other people names I can't remember due to sleep deprivation. HUZZAH.

Plus, corgis are pretty awesome.
I came for the inappropriate touching. Or came from the the inappropriate touching. I'm not sure which.

Also, hello to the new guy. I got money riding on you. Don't let me down.
Welcome to Dtoid! Look forward to reading your stuff!
I'm more of a bull mastiff guy.
Australian Shepherds or GTFO.
Welcome to Destructoid!! I love lists and we love you. I look forward to what you have planned for us
Corgis are like regular dogs that have been caught in a shrink ray from the neck down.
