I am , I am, I am Superman, and I can do anything.

My Self-Summary

I have a dark and somewhat twisted sense of humor, but I'm always solicited for directions from strangers.

I am not always right, and I know that. I think people who feel they are always right can be some of the most annoying people in the world.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm an engineer, and have been working with video technology for over 3 years. I think the reason why I like working with video is because I'm not the most artistic person in the world, but at least I can help deliver forms of art to people....and currently, that means delivering video to cell phones.

My dream is to be a sitcom writer, but I could also see myself becoming a nightclub bouncer if I get tired of the whole engineering thing. (I'm not really a club person, but it's not like I'm against going dancing or anything, the bouncer thing has always held some sort of mystical appeal to me.)

I’m really good at

Minesweeper.

There are an infinite amount of metrics on which to evaluate people, but the one metric where I do better than all the others is my ability to play Minesweeper.

A close second would be my Brian Johnson imitation. Surprisingly, Brian Johnson himself, is only #3.

You know what would be interesting is a "I'm not good at" category.

The first things people usually notice about me

My height. I'm particularly tall for an Asian guy. In fact, it's the only thing I'm really aware of that people notice about me when we first meet, so I'm not sure I can put anything else here.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: Grendel (not the graphic novel), Watchmen, Harrington on Hold 'em, Slaughterhouse Five, other stuff by Vonnegut, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius (which brings derision from most of my friends), and the seemingly ubiquitous (on social networks it seems) To Kill a Mockingbird, and there would be others except I seem to not read as much as I used to.

Movies: Oof, this is kinda complicated, you're just gonna have to know me to know.

Music: Rush (not bracketing this cause I know better), Hum, Stars, Broken Social Scene, The Arcade Fire, Electric Six, Beck, Nada Surf, The Cure, Fountains of Wayne, Andrew W.K., R.E.M., The Refreshments, the occasional thrash metal song

Food: I pretty much like it all, from fast food burgers at In N Out, to the occasional meal at higher end places like Chez Panisse. I generally don't like brussel sprouts though, but I'm starting to turn around on them because they version they serve at T-Rex was pretty damn tasty.

The six things I could never do without

1. My Fender Strat. It was the first guitar I've ever had, and it was a gift from my brother. Someday I might buy another strat, but I will always keep this one, fondly remembering all the songs that I tried to learn, and the few that I actually did.

2. Margaritas at Fonda. It's my favorite weekly hangout eat/drink place, and my favorite drink there.

3. Nice bedsheets. Now I'm not going to spend 800 dollars on them, but I do like having soft bedsheets. I figure if you're going to spend a third (well not quite, sigh...) of your life in bed, you should probably make some decent investments there.

4. My TV. If you don't have one, that's fine, but don't act as if you're better than me because of that fact. Yeah, a lot of what is on TV is bad, but I still believe the great shows make it worth it.

5. A copy of Goodbye Chunky Rice by Craig Thompson. It's not my favorite book, heck it's not my favorite book by Craig Thompson, but it is my introduction into independent comics, and the only book that the great Rory Root (RIP) pushed me hard to buy from his store.

6. My Transformers collection. What can I say, I loved them as a kid, and I still like em today.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

comedy.

I'm not one who likes to publicly deconstruct why I think something is funny, but internally, I do try to break things down. Oh, there's a case of the old switcheroo. Or, haha, that guy got kicked in the groin, I'll file that under groin pain.

I'm always thinking of ways to make people laugh, whether it's something a little more long form like sitcom ideas, or something very short (like my list at Mcsweeney's).

On a typical Friday night I am

bathed in darkness, away from everything, away from everybody. The mere fact that I can see annoys me, I want to see just black, and hear the total absence of sound. I suddenly open my eyes, slip into my battlesuit, and am ready for those that would wish to disobey the law.

Anyways, that's my response to me being "More lawful" or whatever, I've never seen myself that way. In fact, steal music! Steal movies! Yeah, that's the ticket.

Anyways, I'm usually hanging out with friends, there's really nothing interesting here.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I'm pretty terrified of the online dating process to be honest, oh wait, that's not the most private thing I'm willing to admit.

There are certain Hair metal songs I actually like. I Remember You by Skid Row and Kiss me Deadly by Lita Ford come to mind.

They should rename this the Catharsis Box.

(I'm scared of dying alone!)

(I sometimes think that my taxes are too high!)

Jokes people...jokes.

(I always think that my taxes are too high.)

More jokes people....more jokes.

You should message me if

you want to just chat with somebody. I find this whole experience pretty terrifying, if you do too, hey maybe we can help each other.

And of course, if you find me attractive, and must have drinks with me, then perhaps something can be arranged.

If you think you know everything, or you think you're all that, that you have some right to feel superior to others, then please by all means, do not message me.
