apathetic, tired, and cynical
My self-summary Propose an edit
I have a very genuine passion for music, people and, more recently, business...
And History...and
Culture...and
languages. And
various types of humour.
In fact...I find it difficult NOT to be passionate things...
Except of course, when I feel dispassionately about them.
Oh. And Im not American. I am from New Zealand. And yes, I'm actually a
sheep in disguise.
We're all sheep really. The whole bipedal thing is just a ruse.
I am appalled that somehow okcupid has deemed me "less literary"
I've been paid for poetry for god sake! I quote works]! I promise!

I've juuuust got to a very comfortable stage where I can do

about...roughly, my life involves a lot of music, and a fair bit of travelling right now.
I'm really good at Propose an edit
* Entertaining in almost any situation.
* Picking up various skills, getting rather good at them, then
tiring of them and moving on before I do anything useful with
them....occaaaasionally I have actually
managed do something useful...but I certainly am not a master of
anything in particular.
* Music
things. Chuck me
in a jam
session.
* Walking away from comfortable situations where I could have a
wonderful time for as long as I want because I have to chase some
idea I've got into my head...sigh. Repetitively.
* Communicating.
* Understanding things, thoughts, and people. (I like to think so...)
* Picking up on vibes.

here)

work better.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit
I do have a tendency to be somewhat foward...
I wear rave-pants a lot. Rave pants are large and
noticeable.
Hmmm.
My often excessive, notably independent eyebrow movement?
My...wit? My...dashing good looks? The Finesse or charm perhaps?
No...surely it's the modesty.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit
Independence,
a tonal
instrument, potassium, freedom, internet access, and my
Oesophagus.
I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit
You know I've met people who actually STOP thinking.
I say 'Hey...what's on your mind?' And they go "nothing" and I'm
all "Surely...SURELY you were thinking about SOMETHING." only to be
answered with "Nope. Nothin." to which I reply "Nothing. There was
nothing going on in your head. You were just sitting there on
stand-by. Inhale, exhale, blink." after which I get the respose
"Yeah I guess. Uhuhuh!"
I dunno. Is it weird that I don't stop thinking? Or that I don't
spend the majority of my thought processes on anything in
particular, rather than adapt to the task or subject at hand, and
on occasion indulge in introspection?
Maybe I'm lookin too far into this.
I Guess I think a lot about Music, hair-brained schemes, and
shenanigans.
Go on. Try me. I have a bunch of bullshit theories on things
too if you like those...
On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit
I don't miss typical Friday nights. I prefer a tangeable lack
of typicality.
...or typicalism...
...or typalization?
...typocephalosaurus?
...Antitypicablishmentarialismzors?
The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit
I have a tendency to take on unhealthy amounts of risk.
(this is not boasting - this is an unfortunate truth.)
You know I'm not really that private...seriously. Ask me. It's
easier than trying to remember everything I should probably be
private about and writing it down here. (and on second thought,
perhaps wiser.)
I've eaten things you didn't know
existed.
You should message me if Propose an edit
If you got this far you might as well.
Besides. You're obviously lame enough to
be on a dating site...its not like you have anything to lose at this
point.
That, and I honestly do like most people. I've come to accept that
the majority of people aren't like that - and some of my best
friends HATE most people (It's often an interesting conversation
topic)...
It's just the way I roll.
I'm certainly the most social misanthrope I know.
