Hi Destructoid, I'm Taylor.
I live in Wisconsin and probably drink too much, but apparently that's normal here. By day, I'm a web developer; people either don't know what they want or have terrible ideas. "I'd like a quote for a website." they say. I respond with: "What do you want the website to do? Lots of pages? Picture gallery or anything?". "I want to know the price before I think about that." they say, and I die a little inside.
By night I game, read comics and watch movies both good and bad--especially bad. The Sci-Fi channel has some magical formula to find out just how stupid to make a movie so it crosses the line and becomes so bad it's good(-ish) without becoming a parody. I think everyone should read Marvel Adventures, especially Avengers. It may be the "all ages" line, but can you remember the last time comics were fun? I don't, I was six in 1990. Marvel Adventures books are fun.
I started playing on the NES and had a Gameboy that was practically an extension of my arm, but I wouldn't say I became a gamer until the PSX days when I finally had a bit of income and could purchase games on my own, free from parental control.
