The Laws of Aarondynamics
On January 30, 2002, Aaron posted Gig Matrix’s inaugural piece*, a lackluster recap of a lackluster season six episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. No one noticed.
His second post garnered him international fame and fortune, which led him down a dangerous path of drugs, whores and drugged-out whores. He spent the next five years writing 217 more posts but has failed to recapture his former glory. He hopes someday another show will rip off Buffy so he can recycle that fateful piece. In the meantime, he searches for gay subtext where it probably doesn’t exist and continues to write about his nerdy passions: Joss Whedon, fighting games and karaoke. If someone made a “Once More, With Feeling” fighting-karaoke game, his heart would explode.
Aaron serves as Gig Matrix’s managing editor, which basically means he tells everyone what to do. They rarely listen. If the group goes to see Superbad, he emails the next day asking who wants to write it up, in hopes that some sucker will bite. They rarely do.
He likes to invent brand new categories to accommodate the wacky ideas he has, but no one else seems to use them very much (see Potent Quotables, IMprov, 450px Reviews). But he is sure that High Five will be a big hit.
Aaron plans to blog on this about page regularly about the kind of things that no one else is interested in (the gay shit), old games he bought but has never gotten around to (there are dozens), and post pictures of his beloved cat (Owen). He hopes you will check back regularly or subscribe to his RSS feed.
