GoatRoyale's profile

Well hello there! Since you've already done me the service of clicking on my name and have bothered to actually read this, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Andrew, and I'll be your host during your stay here at Chez GoatRoyale. I'm a 25-year-old grad. student who splits his time between a kick ass (non-paying) internship and a soul crushing (barely-paying) job at a major games retailer. I also live in Texas, which is all kinds of special.

My wife thinks I'm a jackass and a slacker. I trust her judgment.
