My self-summary
What better use of a self-summary than a description of your chosen
user-name!
The German part
was from my freshman year in college. On my residence hall floor we
had 3 guys with the same first name, and we differentiated
ourselves with geographical locations. I was raised in Alabama, but
anyone who knows anything about Alabama will insist they're from
somewhere else. I was born in Germany, and also spent a year of high
school over there, so German Dave was my name.
Now, the Naked part does have a rather entertaining story to it.
About 3 weeks into college, during Rush (it lasts 4-8 weeks at my
school), I went to some sort of inverse mardi-gras event. The goal
was to earn enough 'money' by doing stupid things that the girls
told you to do. Well, I was getting desperate for more cash, and
somebody had an idea that she thought nobody would do... And that's
how I streaked a frat house, created a new rule about male nudity,
and earned a new nickname.
Naked German is
the obvious combination of the two nicknames--Try saying German Naked and you'll get
what I mean.
OkCupid: Now in German!
Ja sorry, lieber heute auf Englisch! Habe leider keine Zeit, meinen
Self-summary zu uebersetzten. Das tut mir echt leid! Ist das ja die
Laenge gebraucht? Noch nicht?! Mensch, wie lange muss ich was
schreiben?
What I'm doing with my life
I'm a full time student without a (steady) job, or money. This'll
be fun!
I've picked up Disc Golf as my new hobby. I sprained my ankle a few
weeks ago so I can't dance anymore, and needed something to help
fill the time.
I'm really good at
Don't laugh--
Counterstrike/fps variants. Being
random and lucking out. Entertaining people. Dodging and evading
questions is another fine ability of mine.
Lately I've also picked up the knack for saying the wrong word.
I know what I'm trying to say, but what makes sense to me usually
means something completely different to everyone else.
*shrug*
Also, I'm very good at being wishy-washy.
I have a great lack of fashion sense; one could, in fact, say I
am really good at lacking it.
EDITORS
The first thing(s) people usually notice about me
My voice--I'm pretty loud.
Stick around for more than an hour or two and you'll definitely
see that I don't view the world with the same eyes most people
do.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
"We" by Yevgeny Zamyatin. "Der Vorleser" by Bernhard Schlink, even
if it is soft-core porn. "Links" by Nuruddin Farah. Usually only
read Newsweek, the Huntsville Times, and Nat'l Geo/Smithsonian.
does
Fark.com count?
Fritz Lang's Metropolis Hud The Princess Bride Tron Full Metal Jacket I am David Serenity Stranger Than
Fiction Before Sunrise Harold
and Kumar go to White Castle Hudson Hawk Clue Logan's Run Anything by Mel Brooks. What can I
say? Cheesy movies make me smile.
As for music I'm a huge fan of Blank and Jones, Paul van Dyk,
ATB, Milk, Inc. Paul Oakenfold and others.
As for non-techno There's always There Might be Giants,
Cowboy
Mouth, Fury in the
Slaughterhouse, the Offspring, Cake, Dynamite Hack, The Hush Sound, The Like. To name some
more we also have Muse, Placebo, John Reuben, Yellowcard, KJ-52, Guano Apes, Blink 182, A
Tribe Called Quest, OK
Go, Chronic
Future, Coldplay, Die Prinzen, and Die Aerzte. Yes,
some of those are "jesus bands."
My favorite foods, now in convenient list format. Doener kebaps (Gyros will
do...), Lemonade,
cheap Chinese take-out, Subway, ramen, orange juice, Cinnamon Life cereal,
carrots. I like lots of things, those are my favorites. I've also
been lactose intolerant since 2006.
The six things I could never do without
the Internet, gaming,
freedom, fresh air, sleep (I don't know
why I need this, considering how little of it I get), and music. I
think in that order.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Whether or not I'm a nihilist. I think I am, but I'm not sure. I
could've sworn nihilists were supposed to be miserable, have german
accents, and cut off their girlfriend's toes.
Why don't they list favorite TV Series with your list of
"favorite things?"? Why only movies?
On a typical Friday night I am
How come everyone gets to put "there is no typical"?
I have been convinced that I should either be gaming with
friends, or out on the town on Fridays. So it really depends on
what my Internet friends are up to.
The most private thing I'm willing to admit here
I don't really hate people. I just tend to distrust them.
One of my exes described me as follows, "complex, distant, and
oftentimes unbalanced." I find that to be pretty accurate. Well,
maybe not complex, more like obfuscated. She also calls me a
"semi-feral cat." Also fairly accurate.
I am VERY easily distracted as of late.
I'm living with my parents. Free rent makes me a happy
camper, but a sad panda.
I think I have Schizoid Personality Disorder.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizoid or at least, I think I share
many symptoms with folks that do.
You should message me if
You don't mind stream of consciousness discussions. I'm serious, I
don't follow too logical a pattern.
You don't mind hearing from me twice in a day, and then nothing
for months. Yeah...
