Matthew was born with hair on his chest, has a handle bar mustache, mows lawns with the teeth of his vanquished enemies, tells the sun to get up when he is ready, gives his GPS it directions, ties fly fishing lures with one hand and blindfolded, kills Sasquatches in bare-knuckle boxing matches, tells Oxford and Webster what words mean and smells the fear of wolves and bees. His greatest achievement is designing an open-world sandbox MMORPG first person shooter for the Xbox Two and PS5 with nothing but a gameboy and a typewriter.
