My Notes edit

My self-summary

Let's see, I'm in college for physics and philosophy, hopefully getting a Ph.D. in one or both and becoming a professor or a mad scientist (the health care plan sucks but the job perks are incredible). My active hobbies include Snowboarding(my absolute love, I disappear to the mountains in the winter :-p), Skateboarding (going on 10 years, still not very good), Free Running, Parkour, gymnastics(no, I don't wear the tights), general hyper activity and sudden outbursts of dancing.

This site gives me A.D.D. so I have a habit of bouncing around, clicking on random things, and realizing I just read the same profile 3 times.

I also spend a lot of time on video games(RPG's mostly, FFVII, Oblivion, also Halo 3 and all the Devil May Cry series, maybe not 2...), the interwebs, listening to music, watching cartoons, anime(Hellsing, Ronin Warriors, DBZ, others), manga, video editing, and music production.

I've been feeling the need to take the parts of my life I enjoy to their limits. I want to skate/snowboard until i can't move, be geekier (god(s) damnit, i want to play D&D), work on the hardest forms of physics i can, deal with the most complex philosophies, have unbelievable stories with new people, meet amazing/unique/ridiculous women, and so on. Anyone up for helping with this is very welcome.

random stuff:
I've fought a ninja for a talent show.
My favorite color is pink.
I once lead a group of around 300 people in an impromptu sing along of "We Are The Champions" by Queen. One day I hope to do the same with a dance number.
I have fun just looking at things and thinking about their physical interactions
I love ridiculous and goofy people.
This summary will become more random and stream of conscious-esque as it goes on
I got the nickname Masochist recently because I fall a lot, and hard, when I skateboard but always get up smiling and laughing about it.
Bawls is the best energy drink ever, just saying..
I'm a fountain of random knowledge on ridiculous subjects.
I'm interested in almost anything in some capacity, theres a lot to do on this sphere-like planet and I'll be damned if I miss out on it.
I have a really gaudy sense of style at times... ok, most of the time.

I tend to prefer people a few years older than me, though they often see my age and think "under 21, no drinking no way" or something lame like that.

I have trouble describing my personality but this might help, or hurt. The two songs I've been told make people think of me are "Handle Bars" by Flobots (hence my user name) and "Santeria" by Sublime (santeria more for the tone than lyrical content). Personally, I'd rather think "Bam Thwok" by The Pixies is a much better description of me on a good day. Most I say about my personality tends to fall into paradox, so you're probably better off talking to me then trying to piece me together through this summary.

I think this summary contains too many I's.

What I'm doing with my life

I'm a Junior in college, dual majoring in physics and philosophy, and hopefully will end up as a professor or research physicist. I'm also a sponsored snowboarder and am trying to take that as far as possible.

I'm really good at

Philosophy (i.e. ranting, occasionally in an intellectual fashion), science, snowboarding, skateboarding(maybe not really good but after 10 years i don't completely suck), being goofy, breaking awkward silence with even more awkward things, and many random talents which may either save my life or go unused.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me

Either my eyes, hair, or the fact that I'm always smiling. Sometimes I get things along the lines of "you look kind of like johnny depp if I squint."

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: anything by Einstein, philosophers (Kant, Nietzsche, Plato, Vattimo, and so on), JTHM, Sabriel, Sex Drugs Einstein and Elves, probably a lot I'm forgetting. I don't read much fiction now though I should probably start again, any suggestions?

Movies: Usual Suspects, 300, Fight Club, My Blue Heaven, Sin City, FFVII: Advent Children, Suicide Kings, Ong Bak, Equilibrium, Zoolander, Office Space, District B13, Crank, I Heart Huckabees, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind, Bigford Schmeckler's Cool Ideas, Kill Bill, Death Proof, Planet Terror, and a lot more.

TV: Seinfeld, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Colbet Report, Daily Show, Grim Adventure of Billy and Mandy, ATHF, Futurama, Mission Hill, Simpsons, Family Guy, basically I like sitcoms and cartoons.

Music: Everything. My favorite genre is hip hop, though I LOVE genre fusions and mash ups. Andre Nickatina, Flobots, Swollen Members, HelloGoodbye, Sublime, Mindless Self Indulgence, Linkin Park, The Roots, Restoring Poetry to Music, Gorillaz, Wu-tang Clan, Mickey Avalon, Old Dirty Bastard, Say Anything, Girl Talk, Deltron 3030, Spank Rock, Reel Big Fish, MC Lars, MC Frontalot, Nerdcore in general, MC Chris, DJ Shadow and so much more, name a band/artist and i most likely like a few of their songs. Current music obsession: "Artillery" by Infected Mushroom ft. Swollen Members.

Food: Italian, Chinese, Sushi, most food.

The six things I could never do without

Well the obvious things are boring, because everyone has air, food, etc. in common. So let's go with "6 things I'd rather not do without."

1. Family and Friends
2. Snowboarding/skating
3. Music and ways to play it
4. Ways to find answers to the random questions of life (god bless wikipedia) I heard the phrase "google-fu", I think its similar.
5. Romance, lust, love, and the thousand unnamed shades between.
6. ummm... ninjas? webcomics maybe? XKCD?

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Everything. Morality, Quantum Physics, String Theory, Relativity, Ethics, If the one electron theory were true, Mataphysics (if there can be such a thing even), human interactions, you get the idea.

I want to know everything, fuck the arrogance of such a statement, unreachable goals deserve an infinite drive towards their completion. Reaching for the glorious impossible is worth the inherent failure.

Sometimes I wonder if all my bad luck is derived from all the chain letters I've never forwarded...

I occasionally just stop and stare at an object trying to imagine the interactions of the molecules, atoms, and sub atomic particles, or I watch something move and think of the forces acting on it and how. I tend to meta-analyze the questions on here and try to rate them based on the thinking pattern that would lead to the answer instead of the answer itself, which is probably wrong half the time.

On a typical Friday night I am

Really isn't a typical friday. Everything from sitting at home alone to out and about, lost on a random adventure. or skating.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here

is that this website still embarrasses me.

You should message me if

If you use slang in well structured sentences.

If you're cute, cute is always good.

You don't look for love, you look for people and hope that love follows sometimes.

Ok, so I just got an awesome idea (stolen from someone else's profile... probably should have messaged her..). If you don't know what to write, here are a few short essay topic ideals:
- Historical figures you would hook up with if you could (in their time period, and any interesting details there of).
- Historical figures you would fight (still no takers for this one. What, no one wants to box Caesar?).
- Best cooking recipe.
- Favorite theory, of anything.
- Best stunt/trick you've ever seen/done and why
- Ok, I'm out of ideas, make up a topic :-p

Just go for it, I'll be glad to talk, I like people who take initiative and honestly, I'm kind of shy online, so bonus points for starting the conversation. I'm not one to ignore people unless they're really boring and annoying.
