A list of random information about me:

-My most recent hobby is cooking. I've even made up a few recipes of my own.

I graduated from college recently, majored in business.

My work is boring, but it pays the bills. Life has so much more fun stuff to offer other than work though. I try to make the extracurricular stuff more of my life focus

My most recent extracurricular is writing. Mostly comedy lately.

I can randomly remember useless tangential information. Is this a skill? Maybe. Some consider it a disease. (No, it's a disease.)

Lots of people say my voice or my good nature/sense of humor.

Some people also say that I look more than a bit like Seth Rogen. I may in fact be related to him. (Some people, try EVERYONE.)

Maybe it's just me, but these seem to be fairly standard on most the profiles I've seen: Food, friends, pets, technology, etc...(And Jotard!)

Seeing this as the case, I reject this question, and in its place, I will answer "The six things I could easily do without"

1) Raw onions- Imagine early hunter-gatherers as they discovered what did and did not make good food. They come upon this peculiar bulb. It smells strongly, but they're desperate, so they bite into it. It burns their eyes and mouth as they chew it, and later that day, the smell exudes from their very skin. And yet, it is decided that these bulbs make for exquisite food and should become a staple of the culinary world. Seems suspect to me...(I'm really weird.)

2) Reality television- This is not to say I haven't fallen into watching a 4 hour marathon of the Real World just like everyone else who watched MTV in the 90s, but honestly... is my life so much better for having been sucked in by this crap? Wouldn't I have been better served by doing something else with my time, such as, I don't know.. anything. Clearly the advertising gurus and producers have outsmarted us all and sucked the entire world into sitting, zombified through countless hours of trash, and thus, the only cure is complete prohibition of reality tv.

3) Judgment of character based on musical taste- What I once assumed was just a phase of high school life has proven to be an enduring trend within a growing fraction of the population. Snobbery in general is pretty lame, but c'mon. Quit being so stereotypical in your complete bucking of anything considered "the norm".

4) Halo- *GASP* Oh no he didn't just dis Halo, did he? I mean yes, video games are fun (especially on the Super Nintendo), but for fuck's sake, go outside. Especially if you're a child. For the love of God please let my children have real fun with animate beings.

5) Uptightness- Dirty jokes are funny. The fact that people get uncomfortable at hearing them makes me sad. I feel strongly that its time we shake off the Puritanical influences of the past and embrace the fact that the occasional dick or fart joke will not bring society crumbling down. The financial industry already did that...

6) Clowns- Just trust me on this one. We'd be better off without them. (You wild, kid.)

I'm a geek deep down. I play with legos. I read comics. I play really old video games (and some newer ones too).

If found something interesting in my profile that you would like to discuss, message away.

If you can think of a specific reason why you should not message me, you can message me and let me know that as well. I try to be nonpartisan, and I am completely welcome to hearing the other side of things.

(Piss off, whores.)
