Where would Destructoid be without Colette? (not related to that stupid meme going on earlier)
 by NihonTiger90 on 05.09.2008      37 comments






So I heard it was someone's birthday today? Yes?

Well, in that case, it's a special day today for our own Colette Bennett, Queen of Destructoid (apparently... I didn't assign that title) and editor-in-chief of Tomopop. She's a totally awesome person who brings us wonderful things, like gaming news, cute stuff, awesome toys, and a love of Taiko Drum Master that perhaps eclipses my similar love for those games.

But she's also awesome for different reasons. She didn't have to respond to an e-mail from a 21-year-old college kid who had only written for some gaming Web sites, a student newspaper and a few personal blogs. But for some reason, the scrappy little kid with the figure collection got to be a guest editor at the shiny new blog, then an associate editor over at Tomopop. And somehow, he turned out to be pretty good at this blogging thing.

So here's to Colette. Don't ever stop being awesome.































Also, your Chocobo is out back in the giant box with the bow. You might want to get it out of the box before it passes out from a lack of oxygen. We kinda wrapped over the air holes.

Sup, robots? Name's Brian. I'm a 22-year-old graduate of Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio, majoring in journalism and minoring in Asian Studies. I work as Assistant Gaming Editor over at Blogcritics.org and as part of the crew over at Tomopop. It's a lot of work, but it's worth it because I get to do a lot of cool shit.

I've been a gamer since I was 6 years old and I've played plenty of games, both good and bad. I'm continuously expanding my gaming collection, which has become more of an archive in recent years as I'm focusing on collecting older, less well-known titles. You'd honestly be surprised on what people are missing out on...

Other than gaming, I love anime, manga, sports, movies, TV, and a whole lot more. You'll probably find out more the more often you read my blog.
