I am totally not using, OkCupid for local, and world domination.
My Self-Summary
Hi. I’m Harrison. I write screenplays. I edit novels. Sometimes I
edit screenplays and write novels. (First book due out in 2010,
maybe possibly.)
I’m a nice guy.
I’m a total dork.
I’m a huge Spider-Man fan, and damn proud of it. I’ll loan you a
comic if you promise to give it back.
I actually care what you did today.
I’m honest, maybe to a fault. I’ll never deceive you. I won’t
lie.
I don’t take advantage of other people. I hate that there are guys
out there who do.
I worship Billy Joel as a god, but I still never go to
services.
There is nothing more attractive to me in a girl than
dorkiness.
I eat lunch out every day. I can count on one hand the number of
times in the past three years I haven’t.
The more comfortable I am around you, the sillier I get. If I bop
you on the head with a pillow, it means I like you.
Also, if I tell you I like you, it means I like you. I can’t read
signals well, so I’m very direct.
I don’t believe in God, but I do believe that people should believe
whatever makes them happy. And you don’t have to be theistic to be
moral.
I’m quiet. I’m shy. I listen well.
Outspoken and demonstrative silliness makes me happy.
I can sometimes be romantic in strange, quirky ways. I will never
be romantic in clichéd, obvious ways.
I can’t play basketball or catch a football, but I can tell you
everything you’d ever want to know about Bigfoot, and many, many
things you don’t.
I’m a writer. I’m a songwriter.
I’m lactose intolerant, and I’ve taken this as an opportunity to
invent my own dressing. I call it “ranchish.”
I command an army of flurtles.
I have a very strange sense of humor. Let’s hope I can get a sitcom
out of it.
Everything reminds me of a Simpsons quote, and, sometimes, an
episode of Lost.
I’ll drop everything and come running if you need me, but I won’t
change who I am.
And right now, I want nothing more than to date someone great,
consistently. I have a lot to offer, and I want the chance to prove
it to the right person.
So that’s me. Now tell me about you.
What I’m doing with my life
Editing. Writing. Mostly screenwriting, but also whatever else I
get the time to do.
I’m really good at
writing self summaries that totally negate the need for these
additional questions.
The first things people usually notice about me
People usually don't. I'm a well-kept secret.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and other Douglas Adams
novels, novels by Salman Rushdie and Kurt Vonnegut, magical realism
in general, most books I get my hands on in general, and Spider-Man
comics.
Movies: Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable,
Signs.
Music: Billy Joel! Also, Neil Finn, Crowded House, Elton John, Phil
Collins, Genesis, Mike and the Mechanics, Don Henley, the Eagles,
Michael Penn, Sting, Julian Lennon, Toto . . . basically,
intelligent pop/rock in general.
The six things I could never do without
A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Y.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
stories. Strategies. People and logic and why the two never seem to
mix.
On a typical Friday night I am
wondering why it is the majority of my Friday plans are canceled.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I'm secretly a panda.
You should message me if
. . . you're a nice, interesting, possibly dorky person who can
bring out the goofy dork in me.
