Greetings and salutations.
TheDustinThomas here, you probably don't know me, but I write things here on Destructoid from time to time. Occasionally I get on the front page:
The Most Inexplicably-Often Rented Games At Blockbuster
The Top 10 Videogame Pro Wrestlers
A Retrospective of Pro Wrestling Videogames from the Perspective of a Pro Wrestler
I'm also the host of a pretty sexy gaming podcast that I do with a couple buddies of mine. You can download and subscribe to it here. You should totally do that.
All of my games writing you can find on DToid, but I also write about other things on my personal blog. Here's my top 5 most read blogs:
Let Me Tell You About My $250 T-Shirts
Tempting of the Doon
5 Ways Getting in Shape Has Messed with my Head
Tim Lambesis: A Fan's Struggle to Understand
Why I Already Dislike Planet Fitness
You may notice that most of those blogs are somehow related to pro wrestling. Why? Because I spent 10 years as a professional wrestler before retiring in October 2013 due to back injuries. I actually wasn't too bad.
A bit about me? Well, obviously I love to write. It's not a paying gig yet, but I'm certainly trying to make that happen.
I'm a happily married man, and my wife is smokin' hot.
I have a huge, manly beard.
God comes first in my life above all else. I'm a leader at my church, as well as the head of our media department.
I've been a metalhead pretty much my entire life.
I'm also a die hard fan of The Simpsons.
Other miscellaneous fact.
-Dustin
