A water droplet coming out of a faucet...maybe?

Meh.. bothers me more that they have ads for Gamestop, but I can't blame them. I have to admit though.. being tea bagged by a giant is a bit frightening..
Aerox's Destructoid Blog
I think the message is "If you shop at Gamestop, we'll drop giant buttplugs on you."

I'm really glad I have AdBlocker.

That's a graphical depiction of GameStop's service: It's like walking in and having a big shit taken on you. (dont forget to bring the umbrella next time)

Ah water coming out of an invisible faucet! I get it now! I prefer to think the umbrella shields clipart man from enormous falling butt plugs.

After getting to talk to Workman today, you owe it to yourself to click on every ad you see on this site. Ron would thank you.

I work in the web industry myself and understand how important click-thrus are to the advertiser and the hosting site. So I always make it a point click at least one when visiting the sites I enjoy. :) As long as Dtoid keeps providing the content, I keep their advertisers happy.

Click the ads just to generate the revenue
Gameboi's Destructoid Blog
Looks like some poor unsuspecting bastard is getting a WWII era bomb dropped on his head. That just about describes the trade in games for next to nothing experience at GameStop. At least they have truthful advertising.
Necros's Destructoid Blog
I'd hate to be that guy.

 about me

Oh, hi sirs/mams. I suppose you've come here to learn a bit about me so here goes.

I've been a gamer since my dad bought us an Atari 2600 when I was about 7 or 8. A few years later I got a PC and eventually my tendencies towards creating art joined with my new fascination for technology and the internet. Now here I am, chatting it up with fellow gamers.

I'm a Miyamoto fan so I love Zelda, Mario, and all that jazz. But I truly enjoy any game with an engaging story. Like God of War and Prince of Persia.

Why do I spend time at Destructoid? Because robots will rule the world someday so I might as well get on their good side now.
