History WebVideo / PressHeartToContinue

* UnusualEuphemism: Always refers to sex as "touching butts."
* ZettaiRyouiki: [[https://twitter.com/dexbonus/status/377980674377928704 These on twitter]] and they're glorious.

* {{Gasshole}}: She burps in just about every video that she makes. She also claims to have "infamous" farts because of how bad they smell.

Has two channels: "[[https://www.youtube.com/user/PressHeartToContinue Press Heart to Continue]]" for variety content on geek culture and "[[https://www.youtube.com/user/DexterityBonus Dexterity Bonus]]" for her old "Coffeh Time" video blogs and VODs of her Twitch streams. She also has two [[ThisIndexMeows cats]], named [[Franchise/SherlockHolmes Sherlock and Watson]] but typically referred to as Sherlockcat and Watsonkitty, who make guest appearances on her channel and streams.

* MustHaveCaffeine: Her vlog is called Coffee Time, and she owns more coffee mugs than there is space in her house.

* GamerGirl: As a member of TheGameStation no less.

* EtTuBrute / Brutan Betrayer: Betrayed WebVideo/OMFGCata on her 12 hour live stream (June 18th 2012 noon-midnight). He thereafter challenged her and companions (Creator/TheCynicalBrit, {{Crendor}} and Myndflame) to a 4v4 duel of VideoGame/Left4Dead2. This battle between the teams named Ceasar (WebVideo/OMFGCata's) and Brutus (Dodger's) was ended in a score of 1303 vs. 1436 in favor of the Bruti, after which WebVideo/OMFGCata ragequitted. This was, of course, only meant as a joke.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: The much derided "Press Fart to Continue", who became super creepy with Brooke and got blacklisted from Polaris when he doxed her.

-->'''Dodger:''' [[UpToEleven Pretty much every opportunity I get, I walk around barefoot]] ... I just love being barefoot. Jeannie hates being barefoot- hates it. She doesn't care if other people are barefoot, but she personally hates being barefoot and I cannot fathom that because I, like... [[EarthyBarefootCharacter I feel like I'm in my natural element when I'm barefoot. Um, it just feels like the most natural for me by far, but I'm a Hobbit, so it kinda makes sense.]]

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Dodger considers herself a Hobbit on account of her love for going barefoot. Even in the '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVBX7bImJxw snow]]'''. And rather adorably, her husband is just as much of a barefooter as she is.
** Even in the snow, friends included, instead of putting her shoes on, she goes the opposite route and sheds her socks.

* DoesNotLikeShoes:
** In her own words, Dodger walks ''everywhere'' barefoot. As a little girl, she wore only socks outside until her dad yelled at her for ruining so many pairs, so she went barefoot from then on. She also kicks off her shoes at the first chance she gets and tends to do most of her videos barefooted or in just socks. She's [[http://youtu.be/KCZV1mbfjsU?t=8m53s admitted]] [[http://youtu.be/y16HdA2R8po?t=4m1s frequently]] [[http://youtu.be/WiZQRh-TkvI?t=7m13s on]] [[http://youtu.be/GzIOIlWN8Xk?t=13m9s camera]] [[http://youtu.be/GzIOIlWN8Xk?t=15m18s she loves being barefoot all the time]], even when told she needs shoes or wandering over [[MadeOfIron hot concrete.]] In contrast, Jeannie absolutely hates being barefoot and is skeeved out by it, although she went barefoot during one of Dodger's 24-hour podcasts just because she had grown so tired.
** In fact, Dodger got yelled at for walking around a filming area barefoot for breaking the unspoken rule that everybody has to wear closed-toed shoes all the time to prevent [[AgonyOfTheFeet potentially painful equipment accidents]]- and Dodger has been the person to tell people to put on shoes. This, after she took off her shoes for a yoga video at [=BullseyeU=] and wandered backstage with bare feet instead of putting them back on, and in the video following it, Dodger goes into lengthy detail about her mentality behind it. [[ShapedLikeItself While barefoot.]] (She kept her shoes off and took her hoodie off after yoga because she was all hot and sweaty)

** Fittingly and rather adorably, her husband Strippin shares her sentiments (more proof they were made for each other). When Dodger appeared on ''Strippin's Got Game'' and they played Jumbo Jenga, he came up with an excuse for them to be barefoot that she questioned ("[[ConstantlyCurious Why are we in different shirts... and barefoot... and why are there bags on the ground?]]"). The answer- to avoid getting their shoes covered in whipped cream when the loser got pied. Strippin also made his own succinct comment about the comfort to be had of being shoeless during a video game playthrough together with Dodger.
-->'''Dodger:''' ''(commenting on a character's Ugg boots)'' Those shoes look like they would be the most comfortable.
-->'''Strippin:''' Apart from ''no'' shoes.
-->''(both of them are currently barefoot)''
-->'''Dodger:''' True; bare-foot is best-foot.
-->'''A reply to the video:''' "Barefoot is best foot." Dodger is my spirit animal.

* HugeGuyTinyGirl: With her husband LetsPlay/{{Strippin}} as the Huge Guy. He absolutely ''towers'' over her (she's 5-foot-1). Given how tall his family seem to be in general, it's not much of a surprise.

* {{Podcast}}: A regular on Podcast/TheCoOptionalPodcast alongside [[Creator/TheCynicalBrit TotalBiscuit]] and WebVideo/JesseCox.

* ThatOneBoss: Dodger completely stalled out on the first boss of ''VideoGame/WingsOfVi'' for over an hour before resorting to a RageQuit.

** During her podcasts at Bullseye University, a prank was pulled involving a candy bar next door. Somebody suddenly started screaming furiously, "[[NoodleIncident WHYYY!!? WHY DID YOU PUT SNICKERS... IN HERE!?!? WHYYYY!?!]]"
