I like this website. I come to this site all of the time. It is the only gaming news-ish blog site that I read. I figured joining would be a lot less creepy than lurking.

Some guy who was playing a show in my town told me to go here because its the best, and I instantly saw what he was talking about. Nerdcore porn? Amazing! I thought nerdcore was just an enjoyable genre of hip-hop. Pictures of cats, YTMND's, that catchy theme song by Gamejew, game reviews that give Zelda: TP a 4, you guys got it all.

Right now, all I have system-wise is a Wii, and Atari 2600, and a GameBoy Advance. I've given/lent all my old systems to my friends, or they've broke, and I just didn't want to invest the money to have them fixed.

I plan to get a DS Lite and an Xbox360 sometime soon, but I'm broke, so for now I'll make due with playing through GameCube games on Wii for now.

My current favorite games are Super Smash Bros. Melee, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Metroid, Chrono Trigger, Resident Evil 2+4, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, killer7, Gears of War, Unreal Tournament for Dreamcast, and Contra III: The Alien Wars. Nothing obscure there, but then I'm not very hardcore. Also, I suck at video games. I have a Chuck Norris martial arts game for the 2600. I am always open to suggestions for new games, whether I suck at them or not.

My favorite television shows are Arrested Development (which I'm watching while I type this), Futurama, Frisky Dingo, Mr. Show with Bob and David, Cowboy Bebop, Aqua Teen, Sealab 2021, Mythbusters, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Batman: TAS, Entourage, Dog Bites Man, Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job!, Astro Boy, Wonder Showzen, Robot Chicken, and Spaced.

I like reading comics, but I don't a lot.
I like a shit load of music and movies so I don't want to post any of that, and you're a saint if you read this as far as you did. I probably won't post much. I'm pretty shy over the internet, but when I do, I'll try not suck and phail. :)

You had me at "My favorite television shows are Arrested Development (which I'm watching while I type this), Futurama, Frisky Dingo, Mr. Show with Bob and David, Cowboy Bebop, Aqua Teen, Sealab 2021, Mythbusters, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Batman: TAS, Entourage, Dog Bites Man, Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job!, Astro Boy, Wonder Showzen, Robot Chicken, and Spaced.".

Welcome, dude.
van's Destructoid Blog
yeah, i used to have that Chuck Norris game.... it was a "double-ender" with Artillery Duel.

DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
Thanks, Mr. Riser Glen. I see you like Daft Punk. They're amazing. I've only legally bought about 25 albums in my life and Discovery was one of them.

I'm secretly starting to like Kayne West in a way because his new song samples and is produced by them. Also because of his other new songs music video consists of Zach Galifianakis and Will Oldham humping tractors and mocking modern hip hop videos with preteen girls clogging instead of big booty girls in 50 cent-esque videos.
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
@ van
That's the one. Chuck Norris: SUPER KICKS is a title that deserves respect no matter how poor quality the game may be.
Riser Glen's Destructoid Blog
Yes. Kanye West is fooling me into liking him. That tricky bastard...
Justice's Destructoid Blog
Very nice intro d00d!
UglyDuck's Destructoid Blog
Dude, it's WiiSucks ;).

You should legally buy more albums. But then I should stop buying preowned games, so I'm not one to talk. Welcome. Blog lots, we need more anti-phail.

LMFAO, double ender? Fer realz, yo? That's a crackup.
Professor Pew's Destructoid Blog
You had me at Sealab. I hope you don't do the Haruhi dance though. Well, maybe that would be ok with a robot helmet on.
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
@ Prof. Pew
Actually the Haruhi dance is pretty much the only thing I find hard to watch in that show. It makes me feel a little dirty, so I usually skip it. In fact, it's the reason I don't want to show any of my friends Haruhi Suzumiya. Not that they'd enjoy it otherwise though.

Yeah, I've put thought in the Haruhi dance before.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Nice first post, it's actually good! And if you like Chrono Trigger you need to pick up a 360 and get Blue Dragon.
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
@ Pew
Oh fuck. I watched that video. Ugh, that was terrible. It's kind of interesting that Haruhi's popular worldwide. But that makes me just want to back hand each and everyone. Especially France. Watch France.

@ Snaileb
Never heard of Blue Dragon, but when I finally get around to buying a 360, I'll pick that up for sure.
Professor Pew's Destructoid Blog
France dancing is always terrible. Not sure if Blue Dragon is better than Eternal Sonata though ;)
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
Well I'll get both games. Cause I'll be rich.

Bringing up Sealab, made me decide to put a season of it on. Have you ever watched Frisky Dingo? Its made by the exact same guys as 2021, and it's fucking amazing. It's probably the best thing [adult swim]'s had to offer since The Venture Bros. IMO. Oh yeah, I forgot to put that on my list. I love VB, too.
Demios's Destructoid Blog
dont you mean you'll be BIZZARO RICH?!?!?!

Welcome man!
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
Dude, nice avatar. May Harry Goz rest in peace, yo.
BigPopaGamer's Destructoid Blog
@Pew
I agree. I'm looking forward to Eternal Sonata and Two Worlds more than Blue Dragon.
Professor Pew's Destructoid Blog
Hmm Frisky Dingo, I think I saw the first ep when it aired. Doesn't ring a bell anymore though. I'll try and find it again, tnx for the tip! Too bad Sealab pretty much sucked after Murphy died :(


DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
Eh, I wouldn't say it sucked, but it really didn't have the original magic. At least they replaced Murphy with his son, instead of some random fuck. There were a few really good eps. Here I'll see if I can find a video of a certain skit from Frisky Dingo on Youtoooob. I'll try to post it here if I find it. It's comedy gold.
JLanphear's Destructoid Blog
"We really need to get you some pants."

"Yeeeah, that's not a pickle."

"I know...it's your penis."

My favorite line in that entire series. I about died when I heard it while Killface and Barnaby had those sweet glasses on. Priceless.

Anyways, sweet welcome post. Any fan of Williams Street is a...fan of Williams Street I guess. Aqua Teen is my personal favorite of those. Matt Maiellero is my hero. UNFORTUNATELY, you lost a lot of momentum the moment I read the names Tim and Eric in the same phrase. Those two honestly deserve to die and burn in hell for the crap they've made that they call television.
blehman's Destructoid Blog
Aqua teen!! FTW! Welcome to teh destructoids.
DanielMachine's Destructoid Blog
I couldn't find what I was looking for, which was a rap song all about really graphic lyrics about cumming called "All That Jizz".
But I found a few pretty funny ones.
It's about a Batman-esque superhero called Awesome X whos totally self-centered and a super villain named Killface who become best friends/rivals/enemies through out the series.

I'm not sure how to embed a link, cause I'm lame but here are the links. They're all about 2 minutes tops.

Awesome X using he secret identity to cheat on his girlfriend.

Can't really explain this one. Brilliant though.

@ JLanphear
Williams Street has seriously made some of the funniest cartoons in the history of time.
About Tim and Eric, I guess they're an acquired taste, because it seems everyone on the internet either fucking hates or absolutely loves them. So you're not alone in hating them, but Awesome Show has had some of the best sketches in sketch comedy show history (their songs are so damn catchy), IMO and they've only made ten episodes. They have had some crap thrown in their though, I'll give to that, and Tom Goes to the Mayor did drag and get tedious at times.
AngelsDontBurn's Destructoid Blog
Welcome sir!
Professor Pew's Destructoid Blog
@DanielMachine: Ah yes it's coming back to me now. I guess I'll have to find that stuff again (doesn't air in euroland).

You can embed by clicking first on the " Enter your comment: (Show photo embed tutorial)" link above the textfield. That kinda explains most of it. If that doesn't work for some reason: [url ] link [ /url] or [url=link ]words[ /url] without the spaces.
