ANNOUNCEMENT: New Impulsive Buy Writer Drew

Greetings, fans of food and, possibly, casual swearing!   I’m Drew, your latest guide on this magical tour of things that are bad for you.   A little background: I’m from New Jersey and will fiercely defend it to anyone, because the smell isn’t THAT bad and those Jersey Shore kids aren’t even from Jersey. (Okay, one of them is, but not the goblin.)   I currently live in eastern Pennsylvania and will concede it offers some advantages, such as lower taxes, a major league baseball team, and… no, I guess that’s it.   I grew up on a steady diet of sugary breakfast cereals and may be the only person living who still mourns the loss of E.T. Cereal.   I’m also old enough to remember when Roy Rogers was a dominant fast food chain in the east and you couldn’t find a Wendy’s to save your life.
 
In college I double majored in English and Swim Team, which turbocharged my metabolism and allowed me to eat any and all junk food that didn’t run away from me.   Little did I know this would provide excellent practice for a future with The Impulsive Buy.   Prior to joining TIB, my main blogging experience has been with cult movie website Mutant Reviewers From Hell; so if I ever get confused and start bitching about the weak direction and shoddy acting in those Four Cheese Hot Pockets, you’ll know why.   In my spare time I enjoy reading and not having any spare time because I have an adorable 2-year-old daughter and another on the way.   They will someday read this and wonder why daddy uses all those words they’re not allowed to say.
 
That’s about it, except to say I’m excited to be writing for The Impulsive Buy, and I hereby vow not to wuss out in my reviewing duties.   The way I see it, if there isn’t a decent chance I’m going to regret having eaten it afterward, it probably isn’t worth reviewing.   Join me, won’t you?

  1. We all regret what we have eaten afterward… I most regretted the disgusting dried fish and sweetened seaweed. All of those regrets make life all the sweeter, or is that “more bitter”? I guess you’ll find out soon enough.

  2. Ooo, I like you already! I look forward to your reviews. 🙂

    Burning question: What product did you review for your entry?!

  3. Welcome Drew! I’m looking forward to your reviews. And from one transplanted New Jersian (I’m also in eastern PA) to another… welcome to the dark side. Does any of YOUR family cross the Delaware to visit you? Mine won’t. 😉 But then again, that could be a good thing!

  4. Welcome to the crew, Drew! I’ll stop there before I spiral downward into an increasingly disconnected stream of rhyming words. Can’t wait to read your first revie- uh, post!

  5. Thanks, everyone! It’s great to be here, and I appreciate all the well-wishes!

    (Gillian: Yes, they do come visit us, but I think only because I gave them their first grandchild. Otherwise, nah.)
