I am a conscious biological creature living on Earth at twenty-four rotations around the Sun. They call me Charlie or Charles. I'm the manifestation of whimsical irony in search of underlying truths.

I've had an okcupid account for many years and despite never meeting someone though it I've taken the time to minimize frivolous, obscure contents. However, in no way is this a complete or accurate portrayal if who I am. I'm simple, egotistical, and generally arrogant and selfish.

Que sera, sera.

MBTI, ENTP.

I left high school in 10th grade to study computer science. Soon after I realized traditional school wasn't for me so I dropped out to join a cruise ship and and sail around the Hawaiian islands and meet a bunch of crazy awesome people from all over the world.
Now days I provide security for the Environmental Protection Agency in Seattle.
In my free time I do outdoor stuff like mountaineering and climbing.
The rest of the time I'm relaxing, drinking with friends, or talking to my cat and dog.

I spend a lot of time unschooling and hacking my education though a variety of resources.

The one thing I would love to learn most is to play and read music.

Capturing light in motion.
Preaching heresy.
Drawing lines, connecting dots, transforming symbols.
Surviving self-sabotage.
Detail cleaning.
Making out like a bandit with a hot plate.

My hearty veins.
My suffocating ego.

Fewd: Like all true apex predators I find baby animals very tasty. Fresh dark greens fulfill my gathering nature. Chocolate, curry, cream cheese anything. I like cooking and can cover a decent variety of cuisines, from Thai to French to baking, but I still eat fast food more than twice a week.

Drank: Old Ezra 101 Kentucky Bourbon, dark bear, red wine.

Fresh air, healthy food, clean water, exercise, creative stimulation, companionship, self-esteem, and a place to sleep.

The thought of how to make something function better occasionally impedes my use of said something.

Some of my areas of interest are The Universe, Esoteric Escapism, Ergonomics, Life + Culture Hacking, Video Games, Language, Music Appreciation, Mountaineering + Routfinding, Philosophy, Big + Small, Fitness, Literature, Distribution + Leverage, Antiques, The Technological Singularity, The Arts, (Nuclear) Waste Disposal, Design + Manufacturing, Conversation, Cuddling, and Real Intimacy.

Things + Stuff.

Doing what I would do alone but with other people.
Climbing a bridge. Playing pool.

I may be civilized but I'm not domesticated.
Like I know how to lift up the toilet lid and put it back down but I'm probably peeing outside anyways.
Sometimes I willingly submit myself to bouts of unsanity http://goo.gl/TofkQ
I'm unbearably simple.

You're easy going with a healthy sense of humor and an open mind coupled by a quick wit without the ego trip; don't walk around with a sense of entitlement but take what you want anyway.

If you're willing to find out if we enjoy each-other's company while doing stupid shit like being all you can be.
(think semi-sapiosexual)
Crazy wild platonic sex is always a hypothetical 'cool'.
No matter what happens laugh at each others and your own expense.
