Typically, I like to take an analytical approach when I write. In fact, sometimes I intellectualize so much that people are left to wonder what the heck I'm talking about. Because of that, I decided that today, I'll take a slightly different approach. I am going to gush like the fangirl I am. Not about Halo 3, Rock Band or the Xbox 360. This time, I'm going to tell you all about my secret crush on Destructoid associate editor Brad Nicholson.



I mean, let's just get it out of the way. Brad Nicholson is sexy. Even in that little black and white avatar, he looks smokin' hot. I've had a thing for brunets in glasses (oh, and just as a b-t-dub, "brunet" is the male version of "brunette") since I was a first-grader in love with Clark Kent (Christopher Reeve version). Obviously, though, Brad's good looks go beyond his wavy brown mane and chic frameless glasses.



Check out those muscles! I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not into meatheads, but I can tell Brad goes to the gym regularly enough to keep toned and fit. Or maybe he's just been using Wii fit like this guy. Seriously, though, Brad can make me a cake anytime.

Besides an interest in tasty treats (like cake), Brad and I have other stuff in common, too. Like, okay, we both totally play video games like Rock Band.


I did some internet sleuthing (not to be confused with stalking) to find this image.

Beyond looks, cake and Rock Band, there is still plenty to find charming about Brad Nicholson. One thing I specifically enjoy is how controversial he is. I mean, what other associate editor incites people to write hateposts?





Fanboy drama is funny. In fact, Brad Nicholson has been called a Playstation Fanboy and an XBox Fanboy. He's so hard to read! Actually, I guess people just have trouble understanding when Brad is being sarcastic.


Hi, my name is Amused. You're so adorable!

His wit alone makes him a bad boy in my mind, and you know how us ladies love bad boys. Also, tattoos don't hurt either.



So the next time you read news or an editorial written by my boyfriend--er, um, Brad Nicholson--try not to get distracted by how sexy he is. OMG, do you think he'll read this?

Oh, and let me add...Chaka chaka pata pon.
