I'm Adam.
There's way too much stuff on here that appeared spontaneously.
Please don't read any of it, seriously.

I love painting, smoking, driving, and deep conversation.
Very little is more attractive to me than displays of intelligence. If this doesn't sound like you, then you should probably stop reading right here. I hate to sound mean or pretentious, I just love a girl with a good head on her shoulders.

Sometimes on internet dating sites I will outwardly project what I want people to perceive me as, picking and choosing what my interests are and what my personality is consisted of to receive the result that I want (see: cute girls). Oh wait, we're all doing it. I guess it isn't cool anymore, go home guys.
This paragraph is at its best when you apply what is stated in it to itself.

I'll occasionally go on long rants about how ridiculous technology is getting. I mean, come on, we've figured out how to direct wireless electricity to power household objects and some Indian fella figured out how to harness human hair as a conductor in solar cells. This means we're only a little ways off from having contacts to stick in our eyes with dynamic heads up displays so you can surf the internet all day from the comfort of your own pupils.
I'm not crazy, you're on the internet right now (and if you're not, I'm impressed), look it up. I'll wait.

Oh also we're growing flesh band-aids inside of petri dishes and we cloned a lamb chop without cloning the lamb. Don't ask me whether or not I'm going to renounce vegetarianism when we've got cloning farms for whatever specific part of an animal you want, because I don't have the slightest clue.

When I'm driving by myself I'll sometimes scream Animal Collective, Of Montreal, Dan Deacon, Islands vocals (or whatever else) at the top of my lungs. If you see me in this form you should be flattered, when I'm around people it usually makes me feel like a giant asshole.

I usually just find other ways to embarrass myself while driving when the road is crowded. Waving and smiling at random drivers at stop lights is always fun. From such a simple and brief interaction with someone you can determine a great deal of their personality, and then the light turns green and you never see them again.

Going to community college, studying in digital design and fine arts.
Trying to become a better painter on the side. Getting frustrated with iTunes for not properly burning CDs.
Looking for that awesome person to share the road with. I wish this wasn't either so cliche or true, I'm not sure which.

Trying to avoid profile cliches and then failing miserably, nerding out, working with symbolism and metaphors, artsy stuff, spacing out, finding great hole-in-the-wall places to eat, drinking absurd amounts of coffee, staying up all hours of the night (the reason for this tends to change on a daily basis, usually ihop/coffee/other chemicals), making meaningless lists, having a damn good laugh.

If this profile and past experience is any indicator, it's that I say a LOT more textually than I do in person. I think this is a result of me being socially guarded? Feel free to pick my brain on the matter, the reasons for this is something I'm still discovering for myself.

Either how skinny I am, my colossal nose, or my tragic hipster style. I just suffer for fashion, or whatever. /ironic irony.

That I failed miserably trying to put a joke here.

More recently I've been told several times that I'm a good dancer but I have no idea where this comes from or how it happens? I think alcohol is to blame.

Books - Sci fi, Fantasy, Philosophy (Existentialism, particularly), lots of stuff! I'm (slowly but surely) rediscovering why I love Kafka. Most recently read Brave New World by Huxley, and am considering getting into Asimov's collective works. Anyone have any suggestions on where to start? Don't say I, Robot.

Movies - I love great camera work, a subtle nuanced plot, and a powerful, lasting impact. Realistically, as long is it's main appeal isn't based around big explosions or romantic comedy, I'll probably enjoy it. I finally saw Boondock Saints not long ago and loved it. I had avoided it for the longest time because I thought it was a football movie?

Television - Much to my dismay, shows that don't suck something fierce have started popping up everywhere, so naturally I have start watching this shit now. Among the current favorites are Dexter, Doctor Who, 30 Rock, Community (obligatory as a community college student), It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and The Office

Music - http://www.last.fm/user/betawat

Relevant to the last five! That the dub scene is suddenly blowing up everywhere is fascinating to me, and if you know anything about it, I would probably highly enjoy talking to you.

Basically my musical tastes are all over the place. I'm into more or less something out of every genre that I can think of, except maybe country? 'I like everything but country' seems like such a cliche thing to say though.

Food- I'm a vegetarian. I love thai and spicy things, but I could probably get by with just delicious stir fry veggies. As long as it's spicy.

Artistic expression - Working on a canvas is the most meditative thing in the world for me
Green - in all of it's shapes and sizes, and yes, that too.
Hats! - I love hats, and will be your best friend if you let me borrow yours.
A close friend - This is usually one of a few people of whom I swear my relationship is totally platonic, despite all indications to the contrary.
Caffeine - I'll drink up to seven or eight cups of coffee a night at ihop. That my heart hasn't burst is something remarkable. This reads as sickeningly romantic, but I really do consume too much caffeine.
Cigs - this is a trend I keep telling myself will change, but realistically won't without the proper motivation that I keep failing to find.
My Car - I realize that makes this seven things and I couldn't care less. I refuse to be constrained by those blue letters on top of this box. The extrapolation for this one is remarkably self explanatory, so I decided to waste your time instead. Ha. See, look, I'm still doing it.

I wish I had a last.fm for my head so that I could keep the things I think about in a neatly organized bar graph. Actually, seeing such a thing visually might be disturbing.

Whether or not we're accelerating the evolution of domestic animals in some completely ridiculous way, to the point of having intelligent cats and dogs and parrots partying with us people, being roommates with us, and being insulted by the prior implication that they aren't people.

If that damned profile percentage completion bar got filled up every time I used the word cliche, I'd be super. Cliche. One more just for good measure.

The nature of perspective in determining who we are and how we perceive the world around us is a thought process that is simultaneously awe-inspiring and terrifying to me. I'm occasionally witnessed thinking about this, among other things, on psychadelics, subsequently inducing a mindfuck.

At a friends place, drinking, smoking, painting. Sometimes in that order.
Or furiously typing away at word documents for extensive periods of time at the cost of my sanity.
If I'm not obliterating my health in one way or another, I'm probably on aim. sn - Rebelbet4
Feel free to send me a message, especially if you've gotten this far and I haven't scared you off with my particular brand of madness.

I've only been in two relationships, the more serious of which lasted only three months. I'm searching high and low to find the right person to rectify this with.

You love the arts, video games (rpg references will impress me, I'm a hopeless nerd), traveling, getting lost in conversation, getting lost in general, you have a sweet fedora I could borrow, are a fellow insomniac (I would love to meet more people that are down to stay up as late as I am, also this is not inherently sexual, I just end up staying up till 4-5AM every other night and it's incredibly boring) or just really feel so inclined.

Conversely, don't message me if you don't want to. That would be silly and counterproductive.
If you're interested in something romantic, please don't message me if you're not in the rough area of my body type, belong to any organized theocentric religion (See: Christianity, Judaism, Islam, though apparently jews don't have much choice in the matter? I will never understand this) and "are serious about it" (or aren't too serious about it, I don't really seem to get you people either).

You actually read all this? This profile is the cumulative result of me being delirious, bored, or intoxicated in short periods of time over several months. That you read and processed all of this and retained your mental capacity is something remarkable.

Or maybe you just scrolled all the way down to see what next week's test contest is! In which case you are a cheater and a tease.
