Hi2u Destructoid friends photo

I'm Marley and I'll be aiding these robo-folks here to deliver some tasty gaming grooves your way. I'm a female gamer who's been console hopping ever since I was a wee one, currently spending what time I can spare during my final semester in college playing, thinking, and drooling over games.

By my luck I go to a school with an academic interest in gaming and have thus been able to study games as part of my educational agenda, giving my nerdy-game-brain major GPA cred. While I currently reside in New York I'm a pure-bred California girl (from the YAY area, to be exact) with a penchant for meeting well-known Interweb nerds in RL as mentored by my Silicon Valley heritage.

So yeah. I'm pumped as a robo-brain to be a part of Destructoid and I can't wait to go karate-crazy with posts. w00t!

Good to have you here.
May I ask more about your school/classes? Was it actually FUN, or was it really lame and only passable because it involves games?
Studying games sounds cool, but if it's lame in any way then I'd rather study something that's lame but can help me out in life.

Another girl writing for Destructoid? No way! I was born in California, and I'm finishing up my last semester here in New York as well. And then after this I'm moving back to California. Weird, huh?

What part of New York? Care to attend the first Destructoid House Party?

@Poetic Justice, in all fairness it is mostly just children. and it isn't perving. Raping and molesting is a much better word to use. :) RAPE TEH PLUSHTOID

Ted I wish I could find the bastard that sodomized you as a child, or maybe even stop the asshole that kept feeding you donuts too.

No, this person/robot is lying. There are no girls on the internet and as such, this "female" you speak of cannot exist.

Welcome robot.

Holy crap, she has announced she is a female and no one yet has yet posited the question that men have been asking since they crawled out of the primordial soup of online gaming...

"Are you hot?"

Oh wait... it was asked once...

And I thought we were doing so well. :-)

@Bluefusion -- that's because no one here is retarded. At least, no one that lasts very long.

hi2all! thank you for the various welcomes. I've made note of all your suggestions and warnings with great care and I'm ready to kick it with a tasty groove majorly over hurr.

For the record (and to keep things fresh) I may or may not have a third bewb like that girl from Total Recall (which would make Ted's calculations a litte less predictable: 6 +/- 1 bewb on dtoid?).

Also, I go to the school of hard knocks, YA HEARD?

Also, Cocks. ^_^
