About Me
I'm your average girl who loves to game, I believe it is the most fun you can get from batteries. My dream is to find someone who can at least keep up with me in SMB3. One day when I win the lottery that I do not play, I will move to Florida or California and go to one of those Game Design Colleges in the excerpts of my monthly Game Informer. Until then, I will play out my days as a server for Buffalo Wild Wings and give my gamertag out instead of my number when patrons hit on me. Or I will wait until the editors of Destructoid read this and realize I could be a writing asset to their gaming community.


MY TOP 10 FAVORITE GAMES/GAME SERIES (In no particular order):
Fatal Frame
Silent Hill
Tomb Raider
Maniac Mansion
Clock Tower
Super Mario Brothers 3
Resident Evil
Castlevania
Joe Montana's Sports Talk Football
Mortal Kombat

Does this B.R make me look fat?
eightxbitxchick | 11:06 AM on 08.04.2009 57 comments


Just playing Halo 3 and wondering why guys think all girls who play video games are fat? I know this is a played out scenario and never the less does it bother me, being only 120 pounds. Did it ever occur to some of these guys that girls can loose weight but there face is going to look like that forever? Just wanted to bring a smile to your being :-)

"All your base are belong to us!"

Love,
EightxBitxChick

"Did it ever occur to some of these guys that girls can loose weight but there face is going to look like that forever?"

I think you are looking for the word "their" in that sentence. Also, no one gives a shit about your weight here. I also imagine most of the people that belong to this community do not care about the weight of the girls they game with. So why you decided to post this here I have no idea, but please, hide this. Also, welcome to Destructoid.

Also, an intro blog describing what games you like to play and systems you own would be nice. If you have to mention weight, tell us how much your game collection weighs.

Like, OMG usedtabe, like, that was, like, so rude. I, like, can't believe that you'd, like, assume that just because a girl posted some, like, pics of herself, like, modeling and posted, like, her weight, like, that she was trying to, like, whore herself out for, like, the community.

A girl can be fat, thin, ugly, pugly, thugly, or have huge growths on her face. But if she plays video games, it still an epic win.

USEDTABE:
Well thank you for correcting my blog, criticism is always welcome and given here. I do not believe i have played a game with anyone in this community, but this was meant to be random and sarcastic. I am very sorry you took it to heart. If you were to review your response, i would take out two of the uses of "also". Transitional words are what makes a paragraph flow beautifully, so next time maybe use again, as well as, besides, furthermore, in addition, likewise, moreover, or similarly. Thank you for the welcome, and have a good day!

Maybe using punctuation like a period or exclamation mark would have made your statement relevant to my opinion or satisfaction.

Like, OMG, like, I forgot to, like, add a period, like, like a girl in my, like, sentence. That makes me, like, not relevant to, like, whoever is typing back to, like, me.

Because OP and commenter are different people.

I've never been one to insult a girl while playing a game. I have yet, however, to actually meet one while playing a game. Feel free to prove me wrong on both accounts.

You were the first to throw unkind words, so i will be the first to stop them. I am sorry you felt the need to take time out of your day to make fun of a random girl's online blog. I am more than sure that this will not be the highlight of your time well spent online. It was nice to meet you and maybe the discussion of adult swim or whatever else tickles your fancy will be more appropriate and entertaining than what has been posted today.

Thank you for taking interest in my profile. Through and through, that entire section was made up of witticism and was not meant to be taken seriously. I would say to look up, but it has already went over your head obviously.

Nope, didn't take time out to make fun of a random girl's blog (if you look up you can see an example of a REAL female gamer's blog), I took time out to make fun of a grrl gamer's blog. I'll apologize when proved wrong, your lack of shifting "i" isn't helping much. As is the fact that your grammar, spelling, and dispostion changed so completely when confronted. My advice to you? Lurk more, then try again.

Upon actually reading the comments here, I will say that you at least have a bit of wit and could possibly not be trolling. So the question is why this blog? a paragraph that looks like it came out of a journal whose subject matter is really quite stupid. I guarantee no guy thinks every girl who plays games is fat. You did feel the need to leave your weight and a pic, which actually is not necessarily wrong. Plenty of people make introduction blogs and post pics and information about themselves. I sincerely hope that while responding to everything everyone writes, you are also editing this blog to make it a better introduction post.

Thank you for actually posting something relevant. I have been registered with this website for maybe 2 hours so i do apologize if it is not up to your "female gamer's blog" expectations. The apostrophe was not appropriate for "gamer's" due to the fact that it is "gamers", but i like your style. I also like how your grammar changed too, from ignorant to arrogant blogger in no time at all.

LOL! They either think that we're fat... or that we're lying there in our Victoria's Secret undies and want to have hot, hot PSN video cam sex with them!

... Many don't seem to realize that we're probably one of those many girls they pass in the street each day. :)

i have never really blogged before, so i do not necessarily know the etiquette of doing so. i merely came on here to post a funny blog, not knowing that the first one would pan out anger. Thank you for the kind words, i take pride in my wit and am glad someone else sees it as just that instead of frantically typing an attempt of a comeback. i did not mean to categorize all guys who play Halo 3, i do apologize for that ignorance. The post was merely my opinion based on lofty facts picked up while playing.

I will write another post on a better day about how i would die for Bayonetta's heel guns, why getting 99 lives on SMB3 is fun but i long for 100, the depleting wait for a new Tomb Raider game despite the upset from the past two, how i would sell my soul for Dead Rising 2, and why it seems like Ramen Noodle seasoning packets are getting smaller. Maybe these are a bit more appropriate for this blogging community.

Hey eightxbitxchick... just read back on some of the comments,and don't worry. They are just saying that the standards here for blogs are pretty high... you have to just write more (like you last comment) and make a stronger point.

Yeah, those guys that you run into in online play use the classic "you must be a fat chick" or the "are you hot" lines all the time, and it's sort of old news... so if you have a different slant on that issue, you just have to write out a longer more interesting blog about it or talk about other things that might be of interest to the gaming community here.

Keep blogging... though if your blog is really short, check out the forums and maybe post there instead.

... and really... this is a place where women gamers are treated pretty much the same as men gamers. A fail blog is a fail blog, a good blog is a good blog. You'll be welcomed in their online games and treated the same as any other gamer. So enjoy... and try again with a better blog. :)

Haha welcome to Dtoid! Seems like you are being put through a "birth by fire" by some members but if you hold out you will enjoy what we have to offer. As Usedtabe said, you should do an intro post so that we get to know you better. It helps new users to integrate into this social community.

Now to the "point" of your blog, I guess gamers think stereotypically as well. Just as most guy gamers aren't fat, antisocial teenagers playing in the basement of their parents' house, most girl gamers aren't the typical stereotypes either. I know a lot of girls who play video games that don't fit the expected mold. You are playing on the 360 which is major reason for the problem haha. I play pretty regularly with two girls on LBP and frequently run into girls playing Warhawk, Resistance 2 and Burnout Paradise. Plus I'm starting to think that many of the "women" on Home are actually women :P

Ahhh sexism! Male or female it's always pathetic yet hillarious. It's racism but a pinch less violent and mixed with an extra teaspoon of ignorange. Leave to boil for an hour or two and then season with stupidity.

Thank you ELSA and CELICACRAZED! I will once again state that though there is some truth in my first blog, it was all meant to be a joke. My joke went terribly wrong obviously. I had browsed a few other blogs and saw some wit and thought why not. I am now off to writing an intro blog, for your viewing pleasure. I hope this will please the masses and let people know more about my gaming interests and myself, other than my dry wit and defense mechanisms against angry bloggers. :-)

The people online are idiots. If you were a guy, they'd be calling you a fag or a homo. Cause you're a girl, they try to pick you up, assume your a guy that sounds like a girl, tell you to get back in the kitchen, or assume you're fat.

Online trolls are so predictable, its funny. Could set your watch by them. Don't take personal and certain don't blog about it cause you just open yourself up to more troll comments as proven by so many previous jerk offs in this post.

Thanks for proving my point, asshats.
