Jeff Gerstmann Got a Posse
1999-08-24 21:22:56
How cool is THIS: Veteran Pigdog Journalist Jeff "No Pants" Gerstmann is back in the ring to take another swing! And this time it's PERSONAL!
See, "No Pants" has been a part of the Pigdog community since back in the day. He wrote the big- hit-getting article about his night with Ron Jeremy for the highly-crazed and sideways In The Pink issue of PDJ.
Now, he's writing a column for this sicko crazy Web site, videogames.com. I admit that I haven't read much of this site, but I don't think I'm going out on a limb here by saying it's about video games and shit. All kinds of video games! The writing's pretty damn, good, too! For a bunch of gamer freak-os, I mean. Y'know.
Anyways, Jeff's got a column and stuff on this videogames.com site. It's called "Gerstmann Goes Off!", and it even has an exclamation point and like that. AND it has a little Kim Rollins fnord, too! "This is my column. There are many like it, but this one is mine." Or maybe that's from something else that I don't know about. It sounds kind of military, actually. Or like something Maya Angelou would say.
OK, but "No Pants" is apparently hot shit on a dry shingle over at the videogames.com site, I think! He's listed as "reviews editor" on the colophon page. But you have to check out how far down on the page his name is! All those marketroids and advertising villains are listed before all the editorial staff. Even the JANITOR is listed before J "NP" G. Why is that? I don't know. Upside-down priorities, if you ask me.
Anywho, if you dig games, or Ron Jeremy, or whatever, you should move on over and check out videogames.com! Really! Say hi to "No Pants" for us! And tell him to get off his high horse and come write some shit for PDJ again, eh?

John Dvorak has passed. I’m of mixed emotions. First off I’m more positive about his contribution to the overall technology journalism of the early PC days through the 90s, despite how many things he got wrong. He was a firebrand and commanded attention. (More...)

Christmas day, for the last 17 or so years has bored me. I find that the real fun and excitement always takes place on Christmas Eve. Every other year, it's the excitement of the metaphorical hunt instead of the kill. Otherwise, it's just plain bad craziness. (More...)
