I have been telling you kids to get off my lawn for three plus years and nothing has made this old man happier. When I first joined this unbelievable community and adopted my alias of Y0j1mb0, I never thought I would even last this long here. I've seen people come and go. I've seen Destructoid as a site have many changes and yet miraculously, it still stayed the same. Still the staff stayed as passionate about their work, still the community has remained the best ever.
And now we have our new retrofit. Site looks swanky, sexier. Some have reservations about the new look. Change can be a scary thing. Hell, when my wife redecorates my living room it scares me. But you know what? It's gonna be okay folks. The bugs will be worked out, the wrinkles will be ironed, the forums will be better than before. Everything is going to be groovy because ultimately those behind the curtain of our big show are still there. You are still here and at the end of the day, that's the most important thing here in Destructoid.
Which leads me to this, since the first time I've been blogging here I will actually retire my alias of Y0j1mb

Which leads me to this, since the first time I've been blogging here I will actually retire my alias of Y0j1mb0. I know that might not be a big deal to some but to me it's like a part of me will be cut off. I haven't used any other online name ever. It's kinda funny for me to even feel this attached to that but hey, change is scary. It's hard to let go of the familiar. While this may be my last blog here as Y0j1mb0, know that I can be found over at Flixist telling those kids over there to get off my lawn as well as talking about movies. You should stop by and check it out, as Matthew and co. have a slew of fantastic stuff coming if you're a movie nut.
Unfortunately to some, I'll still be around from time to time to drop in and harass you all here. I'll still be talking smack about Street Fighter. I'll still be on the look out for what you guys have to say about games and everything else you want to share. I guess things wont really change that much. Except my name... Francisco Rodriguez.
Weird.
