I am a Ph. D. chemisty from the University of California, Berkeley and current West Coast Community Manager and Fight Manager. I have been playing videogames since as long as I can remember! My past favorite games include Secret of Mana, TMNT: Turtles in Time, the Resident Evil series (Jill is SUCH as master of unlocking), FFVII, Smash Bros Melee, and many others.
I've definitely gone through phases in my gaming "career". I used to LOVE fighting games in the time of Tekken Tag and Marvel vs Capcom II (my favorite fighting game), but now I find myself drawn to the more story driven games, and very recently, the music games....:)
But....fighting games are making a comeback! SFIV! MvC3! BlazBlue! Beware everyone, Tactix has put a quarter on the screen and is challenging you for battle!
Current games I'm playing:
Marvel vs Capcom 3
Dead Space 2
Find Mii (:P)
It was mere chance that brought me to Destructoid back in early 2007, and through it all I've stayed because of the great writing staff, a community that cares, and lots of new internet and IRL friends. Destructoid has changed my life. True story.
I'm also now the West Coast Community Manager who leads DtoidSF and helps coordinate Dtoid groups all over the world. So hit me up if you have any concerns about starting a new group, or where the group nearest to you is! :D
If you live in the SF Bay Area, check out the DtoidSanFrancisco C-blog and join the Google Group!
f you aren't aware of the wonder that is Jersey Shore, you should be. This show has it all, drunken parties, fights, and duck phones. But above all, this show has one of the greatest people on the face of the earth, the queen of the guidettes herself, Snooki.
In honor of the second season of Jersey Shore, which means a return of Snooki to our TV screens. To honor this occasion I present to you an offshoot of Tyra Tuesday...
SNOOKI SATURDAY!
Watch as she answers the duck phone!
Watch as she eats a pickle!
Watch as Snooki prepares for the red carpet!
Watch as she gives the weather forecast!
Snooki also has great words of wisdom for you all....
"When I woke up I was like what did I do last night? Like what did I do? I fucked up... story of my life."
"I tried to eat but I couldn't get it in my freakin' mouth 'cause I'm disabled."
Her boobs just seem so totally out of proportion to her body... it just makes her look so weird.
I've never seen the show... but wow, I remember how bored and pissed off she looked during the VGA awards show.
I second Novakaine's words. I really can't stand Jersey Shore, but I'm not one for any reality show. They just make me frustrated. It can't be denied that they bring a lol or two every now and again, however.
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

Then again, who does? AmIright, or amiright?
Looks wise, I don't think she looks that bad. 3 outta 5.

Which is probably what he wanted to do.
