Quote-"Love" is having a vested interest in the other person's happiness."

""True love" is something greater than "love" and truly magical. But it is only possible when you've experienced the former in a lasting, meaningful way. And then had your heart ripped out through your spine."

"It's also possible if you just magically stumble into it. But that only happens in movies like "The Princess Bride." Not real fuckin' life"

-Nick Morriston

Quote 2-"I've been searching for that my whole life. I still believe it's possible.... But I'm not holding my breath.

My names nick, and at heart I'm just a nerd/ punk rocker who grew up, got his poli sci degree, fell in love with NPR and inde hipster music and now can't stay outta northside long enough to remember his way to the grocery store. I'm afraid to move there- otherwise I'll simply never get anything done:) it's just too much fun.

I love dickens and hemmingway, but Hesse is my favorite. I love symphony and opera, but magic flute and Mozart are my favorite.

I'm in a one- man- punk/ electronic super band called nick and the excitement... Where I am both nick and the ......

I dig movies by Kubrick and p.t Anderson. (Wes Anderson is great- but I looked through profiles and he's on everybody's.)

I like cats and dogs... But I'm a cat man. I like baseball and football, but I'm a baseball guy. I love sci fi and fantasy.... But I'm a..... No there's no choosing there. That's a sofie's choice there, that is. I'm a scifi/fantasy guy

I'm a hopeless romantic who believes in the good despite massive evidence to the contrary. I long for a woman I can have a stimulating conversation with.

I'm open minded and tolerant of almost anything. The only thing I find impossible to deal with is a narrow mind. I don't care what your views or thoughts may be.... But when you think you're never wrong... Or hold a view so tightly you believe you can't be wrong.... Then I can guarantee you, you ARE wrong.... At least in your attitude. And I think that's enough to get us started kids..

I'm on here cause I want to meet a LOT of new people. If this goes the way I want it to, I'll have coffee and chat for an hour with 100 beautiful, smart, funny women. I'll actually go on a couple dates with maybe, 15 of them. A few of those dates will become a second date. One of those will take me home one night and reveal herself to be a wild, kinky, erotic, sex-goddess who will want to thoroughly make passionate love to me for hours. And one will turn into something special that will last forever. (Be nice if those last two were the same person:)
What I’m doing with my life
Working, reading, listening, learning. And enjoying myself.*** also going to see Andrew WK Sunday the 26th and Of Montreal sat the 18th. Anyone like to come with? Because as of now I'm flying solo.
I’m really good at
Music. Playing and singing. I have a band called nick and the excitement. There are videos on YouTube if you search "nick and the excitement". But if you DO watch them... i warn you, i used to be a bearded fat man. I got better, though:) I'm also REALLY good at discussing politics with anyone. I'm highly knowledgeable, and not condescending. I'll listen to everything you have to say- no matter your views. And where we disagree I will try and learn and gain understanding as to why... And hopefully find the truth in what you believe.

J.s. Mill said that when two sides come into conflict, each has a bit of the truth. One may have more, and the other less, but the conflict of their ideas will lead to a greater understanding of the truth by both.... But only if you listen. I listen.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm funny. This is not to brag but.... I'm decent looking-not a hottie. I'm smart but no genius. Im a good musician and a really good singer but no prodigy. But I am clever and sharp witted enough to leave you rolling on the floor when something strikes me absurd and most things do:)
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Books- siddhartha, great expectations, sun also rises, lord of the rings, dune, ender's game, various political philosophy books ESP js mills "on liberty". Harry potter, anything by Stephen king, I LOVE childrens lit.... Nancy drew, lowis lowery Louis sachar, trixie Belden, phantom tollbooth, dark is rising, god there are so many on this list... Ask me. I've read it.

Movies: again.. Oh my god.. Wait till you see the vault... I love horror sci fi and fantasy- including anime and childrens.....all of them really. Honestly there's something to love about any movie in the afore mentioned genres. So ask me.. I HAVE seen it and proly own it. Dramas.... There will be blood/ magnolia/Donnie darko/anything Kubrick/cohen broths/Gallipoli/ Lawrence of Arabia/ghandi/.... Comedy- super troopers!!! Big trouble in little china ( proly greatest movie ever made- it's action, scifi, fantasy, horror, comedy all in one... And I learned the best dramas have EVRYTHING in them... Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy-BBC (not holywood version!) Monty python, big lebowski

TV:I'm a PBS junkie. All I've had for years is a converter box so all I get is regular channels. So the only things I CAN watch are PBS and some sports. When I'm somewhere I can watch cable I've seen and like stuff on comedy central.. Stewart and Colbert, southpark etc. Walking dead, game of thrones, cartoon network (I don't care.. It's good I tell ya!) umm... Other stuff thats good, I guess.
The six things I could never do without
1 half price books
2. NPR
3. iPhone-(provides me with every nor show or radio station or radio drama in the world and Im an audiophile.. It also does almost anything else in the world. It's the digital Swiss army knife. I know it's cliche' but it really is the greatest tool I've ever owned.)
4.my collection of rare/vintage books, movies, albums, toys, posters,
5. my cat
6. My guitar- it's again cliche' I know... But my Martin 6-string is the best musical instrument I've ever owned and I got it from my college roommate for $100. He did not know what he had:)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
How communication seems to be so difficult for people. Anger, I believe, is the most harmful and damaging of all human traits. Anger clouds judgement and reason. Anger makes people act without considering consequences. Anger makes people stupid.

And David lynch is god! Garmonbozia (p&s)
On a typical Friday night I am
Make me an offer I can't refuse:)
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Anyone on here who doesn't want to talk/date me because they think our signs aren't compatible.... Seriously dude? I don't even want to know you.

In a related story... Anyone on here who thinks they'd only get along with someone who's match % is above 80%..... Seriously? We're all different. With differing opinions and ideas. It's what makes meeting new people so interesting. Do I wanna date a right-wing evangelical republican? Proly not.... But I won't rule it out and I could give a flying fuck whether you think "nuclear war would be exciting in a certain light" or not.
I’m looking for
  • Straight girls only
  • Ages 18–99
  • Near me
  • For new friends, long-term dating, short-term dating, activity partners
You should message me if
You're open minded and curious.
You're non-judgmental.
You're someone who can make me laugh.

You can knit a dr. Who scarf circa Tom baker 1970s.

I like educated women.... But I prefer SMART women. They do NOT always go together.

I'm good on any long distance pen pals. Unless you're Kimya Dawson, Adam green, John or John from they might be giants, or Jesus Hubert Christ. (I've got some stuff we need to correspond about j.c.)

I don't give 2 ass-raping-donkey-shits about how you look. (I mean.. I do) but the women who really turn me on, almost NEVER turn out to be the ones I really like. And I'd prefer to meet someone I really like, to someone who turns me on. Physical attraction can grow or diminish with time. If I ever do meet someone who really turns me on immediately- and is smart, interesting, funny, a good listener and a good friend.... Well... Let's just say that would be pretty fucking sweet.

Thanks so much!!
