Greetings all round. I am a tall, wry, self-professed intellectual with an interest in most things. I must get a subconscious hard on with the notion of paradox- as I seem to gravitate that way in character. I am laid back, yet easily tiffed. Open minded, yet overly critical. Friendly, yet argumentative. Fickle, yet resolute. Think of it as a game.

I have a lot of time and thoughtspace for the world around me and the flow of it's currents. Politics, history, language, culture. I love these kind of things, and will talk the day away with any immigrant inclined to engage me.

Oh, by the way, if I really rub you the wrong way and you feel compelled to click your way out of the inferno of pretence and conceit- hold your finger. I am also looking for people to hate- it's a time honoured tradition of mine that i have of late neglected. In truth there is nothing more engaging than getting negative energy out at deserving idiots (Kind of like boxing, I suppose). So please, indulge me and send your hatemail- if it is any good I'd enthusiastically sling some words about with you.

I am a 3D animation student, currently based in Brisbane, Australia. I write. I am learning to speak Italian. I work with hats. I keep busy- but am rather bored- (this is where you come in).

I only recently moved to Brisbane from Sydney, and am currently experiencing a Shakespearean scale culinary tragedy. I'm sorry, but the food is terrible in Brisbane. Or invisible. So, yes, I'd love to get better acquainted with this oversized hamlet, if you'd indulge me.

I am an avid and talented gamer, and have been playing for 23 years without losing a single life! My secret: Stick to the mushrooms and coins- avoid bottomless pits and turtles.

Apart from rescuing princesses, I have a flair for most things loosely creative or expressive in design; writing, art, drama, argument.

I have a narcissistic streak in me- so it is often some flamboyant article I have passed off as justifiable attire. Probably and unusual hat or coat.

Or maybe just my height.

Or attitude.

In any case, rarely positive, though not always negative. People either find it charmingly novel, or repulsively pretentious.

Enlighten me, there are some pictures, message me with what strikes you.

I'm actually really getting into the budding arthouse, or 'core', gaming scene. Games from developers like 'that game company', 'pixeljunk', and sony's more explorative works. Ubisoft dabbles in it a bit too.

Books.. sorry all, don't do them. Much. I used to read a lot, but then I started writing quite well. This was fine, reading and writing go quite well together. But then I got into D&D and got my first taste of non-linear narrative (which is incidentally the next big thing in games these days). Linear narrative in role-play is lambasted as poor storytelling and dubbed 'railroading'- creatively restricting the player's imaginations. They were right. If you unfairly retroactively roll this criticism back to books, you have the real black arrow. An author railroads you through his book on the path he thinks is best. What if you don't like that path? Tough... unless you can write your own. Thus why I don't often read. A final supplementary lash to the dead horses backside is that books are quite long, and statistically that increases the chance that the author will mess something right up the further he goes. Also, long books take a lot of commitment. A shit movie is an hour or so wasted. A shit book can be weeks.

Food is fantastic, and I'll try anything, though have an affinity for Italian, Chinese, and Indian. The one thing they all share in common (apart from garlic and oil) is none of them are particularly healthy, and all of them are suited to opulent banquets wherein one can irresponsibly gorge oneself.

I like to think myself as being something of a survivalist when circumstances dictate thus. I do fine without all of the things I am accustomed to or enjoy, with one notable exception. It's stupd really. I get along just fine without food, or a place to sleep even- but simply can't give up toilet paper. I discovered this in asia- I simply could not bring myself to abide with the 'hose' method of toilet hygiene. It confounds and panics me.

Too far flung a field to summarise. 'Daydreaming' does it well enough I suppose, at the expense of any relevant details.

At my Best friend's Parent's place for dinner.

I'd probably like Buffy, if I gave it a chance...

You are interesting. That is what I really want- a bit of social stimulus. People to think and talk about- maybe even to. That's on my end. For you, I can offer an unusual mix of intrigue and offensiveness. I carry a good conversation, and debate if you want it. If you are looking for something different, confronting, bizarre, or entertaining- I am usually a mixture of these things.

I don't promise to be a good friend so much as a memorable one- which in my opinion (for me at least) is much the same in outcome. I maintain close contact with a few people with whom I share a mutual disdain- yet also mutually share an enjoyment of each other's company too.
