ABOUT ME

Getting to Know the Man Behind DCRockX

“Hard work pays off. Dreams come true. Bad times don’t last, but Bad Guys do.”

THE STORY SO FAR

Welcome to DCRockX. If you made your way to this page, you’re probably curious about the person behind the site. My name is D. Clyde Benson II, though online I go by DCRockX. I built this website because I wanted something that feels increasingly rare online: a place that is actually mine. No algorithms. No endless drama. No pressure to chase likes, argue with strangers, or explain myself to people who are only looking for a fight.

I am unapologetically, brutally honest. Depending on who you ask, that is either one of my best qualities or one of the reasons they probably wish they had not asked the question. I hide my true feelings very well, and most people probably do not realize how much I keep to myself. DCRockX gives me a space where I can put thoughts, memories, photos, projects, and opinions somewhere that belongs to me.

I’m into building websites, collecting NES games, watching movies, professional wrestling, music, photography, traveling, and anything that lets me create something from nothing. I have a strange sense of humor, a stubborn streak, and a mind that never seems to stop coming up with ideas. Some ideas may go nowhere. Some might become something real. Either way, this site is where they live.

DCRockX is my personal piece of the web. It is part profile, part archive, part blog, part photo gallery, part digital time capsule, and part old-school internet playground. If you leave here thinking I’m awesome, then the page worked.
