Seriously, I was gone for just four hours. FOUR HOURS! Anyway, jokes over now. Plus, most of you have been breaking some of the guideline rules. So seriously, stop.
And sorry to all of you. I've been just taking a back seat to everything this past week. The trip to L.A. and San Diego last weekend really took away all of my energy for some reason.
I'll be getting back into the swing of things by next week. I'm going to be in San Francisco a lot next week as all the companies seem to like to group all sorts of events during the same period. Ubisoft, EA and Microsoft are all throwing events among others. If the rumors are true, I'll probably be playing the new wiimote360 controller with Banjo 3 next Tuesday.
Aside from that, tomorrow is a very special day. On top of it being my Mom's birthday, it's also another certain special lady in my life birthday. You might know of her. She's kind of a big deal around these parts. In fact, I like to think of her as the queen of Dtoid.
So we don't know how to embed the player and I'm too drunkish and want to play videogames right now so I'm not going to waste my time.
Suffocat, Pologuy, Chad, charlie, Tristero, Britini, Momma Donna, Aerox, naia, Zero, ceark, mandi, dexter, kyleegamee and some other people that I dont want to remember the names right now AWESOME COMMUNITY MANAGERNESSIM.
We're playing Smash and Chad is saying that he wants to marry Rio.
More should be on the way.
Anyway, epic Destructoid get together is taking place right now. No reason at all? fuck that shit. FULL OF AWESOME REASONS COMPLETE.
Happy Birthday to the one and only Hollie Bennett. I wanted to do something epic and photoshop pictures of Hollie doing some ridiculous shit, but I ran out of time. So instead, I'm going to drop some facts about Hollie you may or may not know about the British bombshell.
So I'm a ninja, as you all know. I've been secretly stalking Hollie for months now and I've come up with a handy list for all of you other pheonix blood stalkers.
Sites
Likes: Destructoid
Dislikes: Ripten
People
Likes: Atheistium
Dislike: Wardrox
Things in her vagina
Likes: Penises, other vaginas, vagina-penis hybrid things
Dislikes: Potatoes, LEGO pieces, street signs
Actually, that's all I got. Pheonix Blood demanded I make her a Birthday blog in Grim's birthday blog post and for some reason, an image of a picture of Hollie with a list saying likes and dislikes in her vagina came up in my head. I was going to have potatoes, chicken legs and street signs crossed out in the dislikes section and blurred out bodily parts in the likes section. I'm ... I'm not right in the head ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOLLIE!
So as you may have noticed over the last week or so, a bunch of new Dtoid city based groups got off the ground. I decided that this needed to be more organized last week and inspired by Dexter345, Aerox and Atheistium, got a hold of a few other community members who have all set up the new accounts.
Thanks to DJDuffy, Buck F1tches, Tazar, Snaileb, Krypitinite, Samit, power-glove, Phist, Coonskin and Husky Hog for working on the newly debuted groups. Special thanks to bleep for making all the banners for the NARP groups.
If any of you are interested in heading something like this up for any cities, drop me an e-mail. The only thing I ask is that you figure out if there are enough people in your city or surrounding area that would make it worth you going through the effort of starting a group up.
So, see the blue thing next to the GTA IV lock box? I've had it ever since I was 12. It was handed down to me by my sister and till this day I'm still not sure what the hell it's about. In fact, I've been referring it as the Hello Kitty box until I finally read the top of the box.
Anyway, I've been using this as my money storage place for years. Now that I actually own something that's more suitable for my money hiding, it's time to retire the little ducks. What will happen to the ducks now? I'm going to give it to one of my little cousins. Hopefully she will like it.
In other news, I'm going to L.A. this weekend. My best friend, Polo Guy, is shipping off to fight for cheaper oil prices. So what better way to send him off then by having a NARP! NARP details can be found on the DtoidLosAngeles account.
I have the best job in the world. Take a look at what we just got in to the tips line:
Well, my husband bought GTAIV last night, and he loves it! I love it too... so much in fact, I want to surprise him by submitting these pics to you and hopefully getting them posted on the website. Take a look and lemme know!
Oh yeah, I took a look alright ...
The hottie's name is Danielle and she really loves Grand Theft Auto IV. She also loves her husband. So how did she want to show off her love for both of these things? Why by performing a Nerdcore with GTA IV and then getting the pictures posted on the Internet for everyone to see! How's that for f*cking romance?
Enjoy this folks because you won't be seeing Nerdcore from me again except in these special random incidents. I've more or less retired the Nerdcore series. Plus, I don't think I'll ever be able to top my last Nerdcore.
Updated pics by Fronzy. Ron Workmen is a smart asshole <3
So it was Grim's birthday on the 13th. Yup, about three weeks ago. Sure, we forgot about it, but I eventually remembered damn it! That's what counts. So Happy Birthday Grim. We still have yet to meet, but we shall one day. Please don't chainsaw me though.
Grim has been around since the beginning more or less. Grim, next time, remind us.
When we were playing the multiplayer mode in Bad Company, some prizes were up for grabs. Completing specific in game achievements would earn people some Swedish delights. Lobster balls, fish heads and various chocolates were the prizes. In the third challenge, I was the first to get five knife kills and earned myself some sweet delights.
I'd like to try and do more of these things. Stupid random shit just for the C-Blogs. Thanks again to Husky for filming and Ben and Andrew from EA for inviting us out and talking about horrible horrible horrible disgusting horror stories over breakfast and dinner.
One thing Paul is well known for is that he likes to cram EVERYTHING from the movie he's working on into a particular scene and still. Still no word on a DVD yet, but hopefully we hear something soon. I just hope a album is announced too. The Kings of Power and Pirate Baby music is just so amazing.
Also, expect a video from me as soon as HuskyHog gets around to uploading it. I WON SOME CHOCOLATE BY STABBING PEOPLE!!!!
I'm looking forward to Friday Night Fights this week. How was it last week? I heard that Pizzaface is retarded with maps and Vexed Alex's 360 died. Who's going to be the new host? Please not Emodrox.
Blogs weren't as bad as I feared they would be while I was gone.

I have been with Destructoid since day one but was a lurker for two months until I finally decided to let Niero know that I existed. Now I am a full time Associate Editor and the Community Manager that has helped make Destructoid what it is today.
I try to make it an effort to read every single Community Blog and Forum story. I love this community to death. So much so, that I am now the Community Manager. You got a problem or have a question? Just drop me a line:
