Dtoid Interview: Dale North... Kind of? (NVGR)
Ron NSFWorkman | 6:47 AM on 01.13.2008 53 comments




Look I drink...

and that makes my ideas a little fuzzy and stupid at times. It doesn't stop me from doing my best to bring Dtoiders what they want. More Dale Northatude!

Dale was out at CES 2008 and I swear to you, I thought at one point he died on us. He is not only the Asian Brian McKnight, but and dedicated Dtoider, and an amaaaazing journalist, and fucking immortal. So for his very special last night in the town that he adores, me and Joe had to let you have a sneak peek at the man, the myth, the legend... Mr. Dale North.

Will he stab someone? Does he really have 12 fingers? Is his favorite color "Tips?" These and other questions will not be answered in the video above.

Special thanks goes out to Joe Burling for being in charge of "Lamp"
and also to Dale for being an awesome guy for not killing us and working his ass off, and for being one of the most talented people in this industry.

AngelsDontBurn's Destructoid Blog
I was sad when I found out you guys were here. But it wouldn't have worked for several reasons.

1. My car situation is all jacked ATM.
2. I had no transportation
3. Bush has retarded security there's no way I'd even be able to get back where you guys were or the other way around. Yeah, it's pretty retarded.

So in the end all it was, was a cocktease.

I hate you, I mean I love you. You and Burling.

I hope you had fun with the girls, lol.

RON MOTHERFUCKING WORKMAN!

"Was Metal Gear Solid as Solid as you'd think it'd be?"

Oh man.

When are you going to punch G4 in the mouth and take over? You're videos are more entertaining than anything they air...ever.
wardrox's Destructoid Blog
hahaha. This is why I sleep 4,000 miles away. Poor Dale.


Also, has anybody seen Dale North and Dan Gale in the same place at the same time....
Atlas's Destructoid Blog
Dale North looks like an Owen Wilson who fell asleep in a tanning bed and broke his nose slightly less.

Variable Gear's Destructoid Blog
@ Riser Glen:

Same here. I personally would like to thank Joe for doing a great job on the lighting for the video. He is surely a man amongst boys when it comes to lamp holding.

Thanks to this and Audiosurf, tonight has proven to me that sleeping is fucking overrated!
UglyDuck's Destructoid Blog
You fail at surprise interviews, Fitches. Ron takes schoolboy jokes and adds some adult quality to them, see "Metal Gear Solid pun", but you're still stuck on penis gags. That being said, you both need to work on your puns a bit more before you do this shit. If you're going to do something that has been done a billion times by all varieties of asshole, you need to make it special.

Sure, these half wit cunts find it funny, but you can do better.

 about me



If you want to know whats going on with me outside of gaming, I now keep a Tumblr blog and plan to write on it pretty often. Everybody says that though.

Look I drink...

Name: Ron
Age: 99 According to Myspace which never lies
Location: Sarasota, Florida. USA America


Me: I was born and raised a small black child in Kantucky. I don't remember what I did there aside from drink. I was an only child, so I didn't want to be a virgin forever so I packed up everything on my horse, kissed my coon dog, turned white, and headed to Florida. I have worked in a few different tech industries for companies like Apple Microsoft, Sun, and actually owned a business installing high end home theaters and networks.

I enjoy playing video games, fuckin, racist comments, drinking, making fun of NamelessTed, funny cblog posts, drinking, bashing Paris Hilton every chance I get (She is a dumb whore!) and flea market porno.

I have been in a few Mexican Cockfights and have done some awesome shit concerning video games, but its just not going to change me. Im just a guy that loves gaming. Its always going to be that way. I might have a solid gold house and a rocketcar, but all I need is this community, booze, games, mouse, and I'll be fine. Look for me on the new season of "Cops"
