Rated NA 110

Hi, I’m one of the founders of Nerd Appropriate and the Rated NA podcast. I like good and bad sci-fi films and tv, pho, and the retrofuture. I am primarily an Xbox gamer, but also do some PC and Wii U gaming as well. By day, I am a research scientist, mostly in topics related to human-computer interaction and user experience. Before all this, fellow NA co-founder Matt and I played music together in various bands. I also used to make "comedy" videos for my high school morning news program before there was a place to post them online. Favorite Star Wars character? Admiral Ackbar. Best Bond era? Timothy Dalton (Craig a close second). Game of all time? Maybe System Shock 2. Thanks for being a part of this labor of nerdy love with us.

Animal Crossing totally is a commentary on our society — about consumerism. Everyone is made happier by buying things. IT’S ALL ABOUT THINGS. Buy things, sell things, make friends happy with things.

The date was wrong on my DS, and when I corrected it, my town was a wreck! It was terrible, and my roses all died. AND THE WEEDS! The chicken was almost crying. And there was nothing I could do…
