I don't really like these open-ended essay formats. I tend to just spew a bunch of word vomit. Aaaaand here we go!

I come off kind of shy (working on it!); I tend to not say much if I don't have something meaningful to say. If it's not apparent in my pictures, I'm Chinese, albeit incredibly whitewashed. I'm a geek, and a bit of a dork. My interests include comic books, gaming, playing the piano, and awful, terrible jokes. Puns in particular. Also, I enjoy long walks on the beach. Yes, I do realize that it's a terrible cliche. And I'm ok with that.

Oh, and for the more perverted-minded gals out there (by the way: how YOU doin?), my username has nothing to do with a sexual act; those are my initials.

See? Word vomit!

Working to afford grad school without taking out insanely huge student loans. Once I can, I'll be getting an advanced degree in Psychology.

If you're not growing, you're dying. I'm always working to improve myself in some way.

The board game Cranium. I'm undefeated (except for that one time when it was 2 vs 8, and that hardly counts). It's a very specific and relatively useless superpower.

I also have a strangely good memory for tv and movie quotes. And I kick ass at giving the perfect gift.

I'm not sure, to be honest. My face?

Books: Ender's Game, Ender's Shadow, A Confederacy of Dunces, the Lord of the Rings trilogy, comic books. Despite the thickness of my glasses, I'm not terribly well-read.

TV: Arrested Development, Animaniacs, Azumangadaioh!, Breaking Bad, The Colbert Report, Community, The Daily Show, Friends, Game of Thrones, How I Met Your Mother, South Park, The Office, The Simpsons, and so many more.

Music: Audioslave, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Queen, Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Robin Sparkles, and more. Mostly classic rock.

Food: I'm not really picky. I'll eat pretty much anything, although I have a strong preference for things with cheese.

In no particular order:
1. Comedy
2. Fast and reliable internet access
3. Music
4. My smartphone
5. My own means of transportation
6. I dunno. Cat videos?

Life, the universe, and everything.

What do I want for lunch?

...Is this girl on OkCupid really a fat, middle-aged dude trolling me?

Out with friends, at the gym, or just hanging out at home. Occasionally wishing my Friday nights were more exciting.

I am Batman.

You have a good sense of humor and enjoy witty repartee.

Bonus points if you:
-Like/know how to dance and think you can teach a guy with two left feet

-Enjoy comparing answers in the "Questions" section

Finally, at this risk of coming off as a total douchebag, these are my dating deal breakers. But let's be honest, we all have them. I am not interested in dating you if you:
-Are heavier than I am (as of this writing, I am 155 pounds)
-Have significantly shorter hair than I do
-Smoke daily
-Do hard drugs
-Have no personal goals
-Find yourself frequently asking your friends to explain jokes to you
-Have no intention of doing anything sexual before marriage. I respect your reasons, but I enjoy sex and sex related activities.
-If anyone wants to call bullshit on any of my deal breakers, PLEASE message me so I can explain myself. Or change my mind, as the case may be.
