Favorite Quotes From Dr. DisRespect
“You gotta fly with the Eagles into a whole other world, into a whole other video game domain. You gotta have the rhythm of a sleazy ’70s muscle man combined with the ruthlessness of a ’90s video game killer in the online gaming community.
I’m a 6-foot-8 gaming powerhouse like I’ve said many, many times. I’m the 1993 and 1994 two-time, back-to-back, yeah, multiple years back-to-back consecutive years, the two-time blockbuster video game champion in the online gaming community.
I’m an international video game superstar. Trust me when I say this. When I hop out of the 1990 Lamborghini Diablo VT, everyone wants a picture.”
