I am quirky, intelligent, and ironic.
My Self-Summary
I really suck at writing these things.
I'm truthful to a fault, although I can be tactful about it when
appropriate.
I think religion and nationalism are the two most detrimental
things to humanity ever.
I love music, movies and computers (
Linux FTW).
My biggest dislikes are wasted potential, fakeness, and
mediocrity.
I consider myself a disillusioned idealist.
My sense of humor borders on the absurd, dark, and ironic.
...
I think putting too much information into these boxes takes a lot
of fun out of getting to know someone.
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently frantically seeking employment since I bought a house
right before losing my job. I've come to the hard realization that
I'm not going to find anything meaningful or fulfilling in that
department until I further my education, so that's next on the
agenda.
I'm also trying to figure out how to balance my different hobbies.
There's a ton of computer-related stuff I still want to learn to
do, plus I want to get into better shape and I've been meaning to
start reading again for a while now...
I’m really good at
Listening, giving good advice, computer stuff, being a great
boyfriend, procrastinating,
civilly debating, analyzing
people and their motives, being there for my friends, not stressing
over dumb shit,
Ultimate Mortal Kombat
3, and apparently looking pissed off when I'm not...
The first things people usually notice about me
That I'm a huge smart ass? Who knows.

Whether the human race will ever get it together
On a typical Friday night I am
I really hate the word "typical."
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I've been clinically depressed for most of my life. You would have
to get to know me pretty well for that to become obvious though.
You should message me if
you honestly think it would be mutually beneficial to us, although
I should point out that I'm really not looking for anything serious
right now, at least not until I get a job, get back into school and
iron out a couple other issues. I'm mainly looking for new friends,
and maybe someone I click nicely with who won't lose interest
before I get my life together.
