About
I was born in the last millennium in the far off year of 1989... back before the invention of such things as the world wide web (seriously).

My home is on the side of a highway next to an animal laboratory. A pregnant lady once drove into my front yard in such a way as to send my father's car flying into a wall.

She was in a high-speed chase with the cops. I once got arrested for standing in a park, with the final charges coming to disorderly conduct, assault and battery on a police officer, and resisting arrest. Don't worry though I didn't do anything wrong... that cop was just being a real jerk.

I like video games. I really like the number 24. People in high school used to think I was always on drugs... yet I have never gotten high in my life (only on life!). I'm probably not as ugly or screwed up as you think I am. My friend thinks I am very bad luck. My grandma is adorable. My sister loves cats and wants to join the FBI and save the world (she hates bugs though). I've been to the murder capital of the world several times but don't feel much like going back cause it's kind of boring.

As a kid I used to play on my dad's Game Boy. It was not mine, it was his and he let me borrow it. He would also laugh whenever I died in Super Mario World. Blue Yoshi was my favorite cause he was always the easiest to fly. If you are still reading this I applaud you (in spirit). I apologize for my overuse of parenthesis. I have come to the opinion that many people on Xbox Live cannot read very well since the majority of them always call me GoogleKnocker.

This was the first result for "destructoid decoder ring" in my bing image search... sorry but you'll have to deal with it cause I sure as hell ain't going back to google.

Well apparently Occam's Electric Toothbrush is supposed to give out decoder rings when you come to Destructoid. I was not aware of this and am highly disappointed as I never received mine.

I only found this out due to this other blog and c3saraval0's comments. Well I decided to follow his helpful advice and here I am with this blog.

SO WHERE IS IT?

Do you not like me Occams? You were my first you know! You hold the distinction of giving me my first ever comment in my first ever blog... I thought we had something special! You said my article "resonated" with you... did that mean nothing?! I've been on this site for years Occams... and have only been active within the community for a little over 2 weeks. Well now it all feels like a sham!

Who knows what sort of cryptic messages I may have been missing out on... does the decoder ring make Jim Sterling's reviews in line with the metacritic? Does it make it so Kane & Lynch 2 doesn't hurt my eyes? Does it reveal what the hell your avatar is supposed to be? I DON'T KNOW!

I suppose this may have been my fault for not having a proper introductory blog... well I didn't know I was supposed to do that.... I'M SORRY... consider this my introductory blog. I don't want bad blood between us Occams... just give me my standard issue decoder ring and whatever other nonsense you have in mind. I don't even care what it is!

I just want to be a part of the community Occams... please.

Don't worry, he's playing Dead Space right now, but I'm sure he'll be along soon enough. You hit the nail on the head, though: he only gives them out if you post an introductory blog of some sort.

I'm sure this will do :)
Wow, you weren't kidding. That cat armour really is the first thing to come out in image search... I don't even...
@HandsomeBeast
Well better than the other two results of a sandwich and Too Humans... augh.

You have submitted your blood type, social security number, home address, mother maiden name, Favorite crayon color(only crayolas), 2nd grade crush's name, how many cans of corn you currently have, and your ring size right?!Standard procedure.. It's worth it though. With my ring, Itook on a army of Spanish Conquistadors. :)thanks occam. :D
I haven't got my decoder ring too! And he commented on my introductory blog! How am I gonna read between the lines of Kotaku news stories? They're so short and cryptic that there must be greater meaning into them!
I'm sorry....no offense to anybody, but he usually gives out decoder rings and bonus gift to quality well thought out intro blogs. (No offense LazyEyelids, sometimes he just forgets)
awwww shiet lazyeyelids, I just read your intro blog. Thing was good. He just forgot probably
Master Occams is a busy busy man. c:
I didn't really get mine either. He said "Here's a decoder ring", but I never got one.

This....is madness!
Did anyone show you the secret handshake? I’ll show you now, take off your pants.
whats a decoder ring
I was given a decoder ring and a box of cereal.
Well this reminds me that I never got my decoder ring either so were in the same boat!
@WingedKraby: Didn't you try to start your own bootleg decoder ring operation that was shut down?

also, I got an absinthe spoon.
Ok, let's get this party started right.

@Goggle: Your post did indeed resonate with me, I just had no idea and/or failed to realize that that post was your first. Allow me to make amends:

Here is your decoder ring and a copy of Cindy Lauper's hit single She-Bop on vinyl.

@LazyEyelids: On that day I may have been [b]chasing a certain dragon[/i] which caused my mental faculties (which are diminished normally) to be even less proactive. Here is your decoder ring and some Rin Tin Tin/Little Orphan Annie/Twilight crossover fanfic I wrote while on a 4 day speed binge.

@Kytherno: I just checked with the Shadow Council and your Decoder Ring is with you. Much like, Mufasa and the Holy Spirit, it is not seen, but always with you. Take solace in the knowledge that the ring will protect you from the gnashing, biting things that live between heartbeats.

@ralphster:

@Winged Kraby: Oh my such an oversight on my part. Well Winged, here is your decoder ring and a Master Sword. Note that it is not the master sword but it is sharp and will strike true in your hand. Use it wisely.

Well, decoder rings have been handed out and amends have been made. Use them well. Use them wisely. Use them to be the best person you can be. Know that the Shadow Council loves all of you.

@Law
WE NEVER SPEAK OF THAT AGAIN
... hmmm... this may reflect badly on Occams annual personnel review.
@Elsa: What!? We get personnel reviews?!!? Please, I'm working hard, don't fire me, I just lost my apartment, I need this job!
@Occams
Thank you Occams... I woke up with a weird tingling in my brain so I can only assume the decoder ring is at work. I hope this headache goes away soon but all that matters us that I can finally be an official member of the community. I thank you deeply. :')
@Elsa
Wait... whats all this about personal reviews? WHAT ELSE AREN'T YOU GUYS TELLING ME??
@Elsa: My personnel review is a week long affair where I have to kill a manticore and eat its still-beating heart after walking the 12 paths of pain. I fear not.
@GoogleKnocker
In due time you will know
Now off to the netherworld
If you set your decoder ring just right, you should be able to read my racist joke below:

How do yo///¬¬3DEG5%6^^dDw67*AAHfdE""!{{{FDEw£3EFewf4U* fill her backside with nougat!
@Capt. Bus: AHHAHAHAHAHAHAH...oh god that's racist
@Captain: Fill her backside with nougat? Holy shit, I've got a family reunion coming up, can I steal that?
@CaptainBus
HAHAHAHAHa
I think I am going to hell for laughing at that one
@occams
Thank you, dragon subjugator Occams. Upon receiving the decoder ring, I was horrified to find that the mutant Maui & sons sharks that I were murdering in my pre-decoder ring brashness were actually baby dolphins! Ashamed of myself, I exiled myself to Kotaku, hoping that my decoder ring can unlock the hidden meaning behind their posts. Alas, there were none. They're really just twitter posts. So I decided to come back to the Destructoid realm and make peace with the dolphins by giving them the movie rights to the fanfic that you, my good sir Occams, made. A wrong has been right. All's well that ends well.
Thank you, Occams.
And everyone lived happily ever after. The End.
...OR DID THEY

@Nihil
