Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

I'm a guy who's totally "that guy" when you're talking to your friends and you say "hey, what's the deal with that guy?" Actually, at this point, I belong to enough sites and have written so many of these "about me" dealies that I'm at a loss when trying to come up with something different. I work as a producer at a TV production company that's my charming home away from home. I'm a Sagittarius, which, for those of you that don't know your signs, means I enjoy archery while fused with a horse. My favorite cereal is Count Chocula. My favorite brownie mix is Pillsbury cheesecake. My favorite accent is that of most Americans in the 1930's/40's. I consider Futurama to be "comfort television." I consider Howard the Duck to be a good movie and will not be convinced otherwise. I'm originally from New Jersey, but rest assured, I do not have a Jersey accent (though I can do one if you're into that sort of thing). I love living in New York, but I don't take advantage of its diversions as much as I like. That's why I appreciate when a friend or significant other yanks me out of my apartment to go do something, whatever it may be. I'm not much of a drinker (I think alcohol tastes terrible...would rather enjoy what I'm drinking) and I've never smoked (hey, nobody asked...not that I'd take them up on it). My biggest passion in life is for the movies. I love watching them. I love talking about them. And in the not too distant future, I expect to be making some of my own. That should give you a fairly satisfactory overview to start. If you have any complaints, please fill out form F-37B.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

If we're talking money and career, as stated above, I'm working as a producer for a frickin' sweet production company. I'm also juggling other theoretical career options in amorphous, speculative ways. New friends and acquaintances tend to enter my orbit as relates to my job. Then we all lock arms and skip to movies/comedy shows/bars/additional social gatherings.

I'm really good at Propose an edit

Being creatively romantic. Sure the occasional beautiful necklace or shiny bauble has its place in the world, but I take great pride in creating something unique for my significant other.

Adding a funny one-liner to most situations.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

Before I grew my goatee, it was probably the fact that I so closely resembled Bob Saget or Harold Ramis (in his earlier years). Now it's probably my height. If they're fortunate enough to get closer, my incredibly long eyelashes shock and amaze.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food Propose an edit

Books: I definitely don't read books as much as I should. In the queue I have Generation Kill and What Just Happened? I DO read quite a bit though in trying to keep up with current events and my interests via the NYT, the entertainment trade mags, and a slew of websites devoted to movies and video games.

Movies: I'm a movie nut so I get asked for my one absolute favorite all the time. I finally hunkered down a few years ago and decided that, depending on my mood, I'll answer either Big or Jurassic Park. I'm happy to explain my reasoning in person.
Other favorites: Spider-Man 2, Top Gun, Rear Window, Star Wars trilogy (the originals), Indiana Jones trilogy (oh Crystal Skull, for shame), Lord of the Rings trilogy, Army of Darkness, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, The Iron Giant, Mother, American Splendor, The Rock, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Snatch, American Beauty, Adaptation, City of God, Total Recall, Robocop, Starship Troopers, Predator, Terminator 1 & 2, Shaun of the Dead, Garden State, Fargo, Oldboy, Peter Jackson's King Kong, The Fountain, Pan's Labyrinth, Children of Men, Little Children, 300, Black Book, Hot Fuzz, Meet the Robinsons, Ratatouille, No Country For Old Men, Enchanted, There Will Be Blood

TV: Married...with Children, without question.
Other Favorites: Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Extras, Animaniacs, Pinky & The Brain, Hysteria, Tiny Toons, Freakazoid, House, Nip/Tuck, Lost, Futurama, The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Robot Chicken, Harvey Birdman: Attorney At Law, Home Movies, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, Venture Bros., Metalocalypse, Pushing Daisies, Beauty & the Geek

Music: I've probably heard about 1/30th of his repertoire, but I dig just about everything associated with David Byrne. Pop, rock, R&B, it's all good. I tend to gravitate towards oldies from the 50s, 60s and 70s, but I grew up during the 80s, so I certainly have an affinity for all of the great cheese that came from that era too. I don't discriminate much, though I rarely listen to hip hop (unless it has a catchy beat I can dance to) and almost never listen to country. I have a very large collection of movie scores with some video game soundtracks mixed in as well.

Food: Favorites are filet mignon and flourless chocolate cake.
Other favorites: Italian in general, pizza from NY or NJ, Kraft shells mac & cheese, Philly cheesesteak, almost anything at a barbecue, raisin bagels, matzoh ball soup

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit

My family. Movies on the big screen. Witty and informative reading material (magazines, online, whatever). Some sort of outlet for my creativity. A job in the entertainment industry. My nether regions.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

How deaf a person is or will become when I can hear the music coming from his/her iPod headphones.

Why people on this site take it upon themselves to post a photo/multiple photos that are completely blurry, obstructed and/or taken from a helicopter's point of view.

If I ever met the person described as my biggest "enemy" on here, would the universe implode? Or would we both just be really bored with one another?

Ideas for my job and otherwise since I'm essentially paid to be creative and generate concepts that will attract a large audience. Plus I just generally enjoy coming up with fun/funny/intriguing ideas, whether it's something like a gift for a friend or the basis for a script.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

At the movies with a friend or three. At a friend's party. Relaxing after a long week, catching up on some DVR. I'm not a bar hopper and I don't do the club scene unless it's with a group of mixed male/female friends or a woman I started the night with before I even entered the club.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

As a guy, I'm overall for taking the lead in the courting process, but when an attractive woman approaches (or messages) me first it's a big turn-on.

Physical attraction is important to me. If you posted photos but I can't tell the difference between you and blurry pictures of Bigfoot/UFOs/the Loch Ness Monster, then chances are I'll ignore the rest of your profile. This includes images that are really dark, in an extreme close-up of your nostrils, taken from the vantage point of a helicopter above you, in silhouette, obstructed and/or the like.

You should message me if Propose an edit

We are more than an 80% match OR you scored less than 60% match with me but share most of my interests and want to prove Okcupid wrong. You are between the ages of 21 and 27. You are a night owl. You watch a reasonable amount of entertainment, be it television or movies, so that we can watch together and debate (or wholly agree upon) its merits. You are not too self-conscious. You are not overly political. You take care of yourself (you don't have to work out, just don't be a sloth of a human being). You get frustrated by typical dating protocols (e.g. waiting a couple days to call even if you were beyond thrilled with a date). You are described as "attractive" by someone other than your parent(s) or legal guardian(s).
