About This User

Hi, I'm Lou, and for the past twenty years I've been addicted to video gaming. Not the bad kind of addiction, however, like the kind that involves melting my mega drive cartridges down and injecting them straight into the veins, heck no! Lou doesn't get down like that! He takes his gaming via the consoles and computers that those fine people in the fantasy lands create from developer dust. Those exquisitely beautiful young men and women and their nuts and bolts brains are forever in my debt.

I write a butt-load of crap that is based on video gaming. Mainly these scribings are on bathroom walls and fat guy's faces, but some of the time my verbal diahorrea spills onto the internet (case and point: now)
