Suicidal dedication.

Massive organizational shortcomings.

Chart-topping pattern-recognition abilities.

Far healthier since discarding that Moral Compass.

Expert-systems approach to group dynamics and charisma.

You know.

Stuff.

Specifically, I'm pursuing an eventual Ph.D. in psychology. I'm planning on research into the development of sexuality, esp. paraphilias. Every psychologist is trying to fix themselves or prove they don't need to be fixed, eh? Berkeley, if I can swing it, but UIndiana's Kinsey institute is attractive, and Standford and UPenn are always top-tier for Sociology.

This does, of course, mean I'm always reading more into what you say than I should. But I'm right more often than wrong, so I manage to avoid offending people.

Writing, especially fiction, and especially flash fiction. But my essays are pretty phenomenal, too.

Disimmanentizing the eschaton.

Macromicronomics.

Dancing, I hear.

Guessing which of your photos is the most recent.

Reverbing nouned verbs, but Scientist Kat is better.

Long hair on a guy. I've been assumed female more times than seven, but fewer than eleventy, both of which are numbers I can count to. I've been told I'm "loud", "bright", and "sparkly", and obviously so in crowds and from across fields, so maybe some people notice my psychic glow first. Or something.

I'm usually in dark clothing. I don't walk - I stride. I have fairly broad shoulders. I'm told that I have celtic facial features.

I think that's a decent descending order.

I'll fill this out as I think of things.

(a) ??? - The Alchemists, Edward Gorey - assorted works, the Principia Discordia, and the Apocrypha Discordia. Take that, disInfo. Bram Stoker - Dracula, Ursula K. LeGuin - The Left Hand of Darkness. Much, perhaps everything, by Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett, and especially the bits they collaborate on. Unless Good Omens was the only such bit, in which case just make that a singular noun.
I want to read more by Douglas Adams; the Hitchhiker's Guide set wasn't enough. Edgar Allen Poe-- the best creative use of Opium and syphillitic madness, to date. Rudyard Kipling, bless his racist heart, could tell a damned fine story.
The Mrs. Pigglewiggle books! Those rocked. I have a guilty fondness for the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series. Lloyd Alexander - The Chronicles of Prydain.
And thank you to whoever's profile I just viewed that reminded me of Jonathon Livingston Seagull, because that got me through adolescence. For seriouses.

This list is out of date, and too short.

(d) I like a lot of flavors, but I can tolerate a finite range of textures. It's unfortunate: I lost most of my favorite foods at five.

Sad face.

Music. My life needs a soundtrack, or it would bore me to death.

Internet. Most of my friends live out-of-state.

Correction. Because if you talk enough, you forget what you sound like.

Baskin Robbins. This is really just a placeholder.

Onomatopoeia. A world without clank, bang, and zoom would be no world at all.

That thing you do. It gets me every time.

...song lyrics I want to write, for a band I want to form.

...short stories that need to be written.

...conversations I might have. Wouldn't want to be caught off-guard, you know.

...what the other side of your skin looks like.

...philosophy, particularly ethics and metaphysics. Epistemology holds almost no interest for me-- perhaps I've never been stoned enough.

I often wonder how much I'm sabotaging my Match% with nice atheist girls by giving honest, if misleading, answers to the Religion questions.

...steeping.

Pretend this sentence is actually something witty.

...you rated me highly. Like fuck am I paying Match.com a subscriber's fee for something this site used to give away free.
