Quincying and You

Hey everybody, thanks for your patience. Finals were a bit hectic this year, so I apologize for the delay. I'll start pumping out more so I can make up for the severe lack of posts in the last two weeks.

You know, over Thanksgiving break, I had the pleasure of getting to play a few video games with my old pal, Griffin McElroy. Here's a picture of us last August.


Griffin used to write here at BTVG, but has since moved up to the major leagues of video game journalism along with his brother (and also former BTVG blogger) Justin at Joystiq. His writing is informative and far too funny. Am I envious? Completely. His latest stroke of genius, however, is almost too much to handle.

It's hard to capture the true essence of Quincying. It reveals the true, sad nature of the gaming world. It adds a certain paprika to the everyday gamer insult. It is all parts wonderful, terrible and hilarious. It utilizes the creepy and strange world of PlayStation Home. Most importantly, it utilizes "the guns" as a greeting. Exquisite.

Please, educate yourself and delve into the vast and exotic world of Quincying. My only regret is that I can't be there to begin Quincying alongside my brothers in arms.
