I'm not your average guy: I'm confident, outgoing, and very social. I like meeting new people and am not afraid to put myself out there. I'm a total goofball and will openly be silly. However, I know how to tone it back a bit if the situation calls for a more serious atmosphere.

I'm impressed by girls that can make me laugh, especially when they can successfully one-up me at my own joke. I like pushing the envelope and when someone can push it a little further, I feel an instant connection to them.

I don't like people that are easily offended or intimidated. I believe you only live once so you should do whatever it takes to be happy with yourself and others. And be yourself, there's nothing worse than someone that acts a certain way because of others' judgments.

Exploring NYC, working in advertising, busting a groove.

Whooping you in dance battles, doing impressions, and people watching.

I'm hairy. Once you go fur, you never go "brr". That pick-up line has never worked.

When the next snow day will be, where my next big trip will be, what's happening this weekend.

Bar? Party? Hanging in? I like going to places and doing things where I actually have a conversation. Screaming over music isn't my idea of fun.

I wear a sleeping mask to bed....seriously, I do.

You aren't afraid to be yourself and you don't play games. I don't want to waste your or my time.

NOTE: I will not respond to one word/sentence messages. Persuade me to want to talk to you and show me some personality!
