SGC 09: Jim meets a personal hero photo

Outside the main convention halls, I was hanging out with a few members of Dtoid Austin (after having photos taken with some fans of mine which was great because I could pretend to be famous when I am just a blogger) when a very special guest walked by. I had just missed him at E3 and didn't have my camera when I visited Sega Europe. This time, however, opportunity would not slip past me.

As you can see, I got very excited and kind of look a bit like a mentally impaired. I told Sonic he was my best one out of all the characters what do videogames and that I thought he was awesome in Super Mario Bros. I think he was really impressed by me and that we're now friends. 

Sonic the Hedgehog is now officially the most famous person I know.

Sonic, there's nothing more cool than being hugged by a Jim Sterling you like. But if he tries to touch you in an place or way that makes you feel uncomfortable, no good.

@Nitex

It's not harsh at all. Those people are not only a national embarrassment, they're a massive drain on our health care system, and they're lethal to the environment. Half of Brazil's rain forest must've been clear cut just to create enough pasture land to feed Jimmy. And I think I speak for most taxpayers when I say I have no interest in subsidizing his diabetes treatment and his upcoming quadruple bypass surgery.

Show some goddamn impulse control.

Seriously, can we just ban everybody who insults Jim for being fat without the least bit of comic originality. Especially if they don't have Avatar's.
It's really annoying. If you're going to make fun of him. At least be clever.

@Gremlin, he moved from Britain (whether the podcastle will continue is still unknown), so how he can be a national embarrassment?

Shit, now the Brits get to see yet another grotesquely fat American in person. That should do wonders to tear down the fat American stereotype.

Jimmy, can you at least move down to the one of the Southern states. Most of the grotesquely fat Americans are down there, and tourists rarely go there. If we can get you all herded together with the hill folk, at least we can tell the rest of the world that's it's just a regional abomination.

In all fairness, if you make the giant mascot seem thin by comparison it may be time to make a lifestyle change.

It would be truly sad if the future were to be deprived of the hard hitting and informative writing of, oh wait, nevermind. Eat up.

Is it weird that I thought Gremlin was talking about Sonic and other has-been (sorry, Jim!) video game characters when he said you people? That would have been mildly funny, instead it's just stupid.

" you don't have an avatar." is This hacks go to insult.

Try writing something that is not useless self indulgence instead of putting drivel like this on the front page.

Someday, I hope to be a popular enough blogger that faceless people feel the need to slight me by way of my physical imperfections. It's my dream to be barraged by short jokes from jealous and insecure people.

You're my hero, Jim Sterling.

Also, why am *I* getting criticized for using a "go-to" insult on someone who used the oldest and most boring insults in the book? Seriously, if this was an "originality in being an insulting little shit" contest, I really can't see Grimlin being the winner.
