I am intelligent, rational, and amused.

My Self-Summary

I've recently finished spending a long period getting my undergraduate degree (Math/Philosophy), and it seems that I've stuck around for even more. I like to puzzle. (double meaning intended) I'm generally good-humored toward people, but I can be ruthless towards ideas. I spend my free time hanging-out, playing video games, pondering and day-dreaming.

BTW, my personality awards are basically all spot-on.

What I’m doing with my life

Career-wise, I'm working on my Master's in Math, then (hopefully) my PhD.
After that my options broaden too much for me to be confident.
There is a fair chance that I might end up in Philosophy or Logic.

It feels not quite enough to simply know or to understand or even to explain.
There is a drive to create - to contribute something original and interesting.

I’m really good at

sleeping, programming, Dr. Mario, reasoning, being me(I don't mean to brag or anything, but in fact I am PERFECT at being me =/)

People have told me that I am good at giving insightful explanations. Sometimes I am. I've given enough bad explanations to know that I need to have a really good understanding first.

The first things people usually notice about me

That I am a human, possibly male.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

With fiction I seem to enjoy setting over story; I guess it stems from my tendency to daydream. I must be weird in this regard, 'cause the market is replete with novels and has only a smattering of works that are truly setting-focused. My appetite for fictional setting mostly subsists on D&D supplements and Wikipedia.

With nonfiction I prefer the conceptual over the historical. Feynman and David Lewis are two of my favorite authors.

My musicians of choice:
Aphex Twin, Muse, Tool, Guster

Food:
Steaks are delicious and cows generally live lives worth living. Although also delicious, I prefer not to eat the piggies. -oink- (The grammar nazi reading of that previous sentence is funny.)
Also, pasta is great!

The six things I could never do without

Wikipedia, friends, sundry modern technological conveniences(showers, soap, cars, etc.), art, (writable) language, and kitties

I can do without a TV.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

the good life,
hopeless inventions,
idle fantasies,
how some bit of the world works,
how some bit of the world should work.

Lately I've been thinking a lot about what distinguishes the statements were are true simply by virtue of their meaning from the rest.

On a typical Friday night I am

at the gym praying (repeatedly) to the god of abs.
After that I am possibly playing extremely low-stakes poker with my friends(and winning =p),
or singing (mediocrely) in Rock Band(R),
or just by myself reading with my kitty.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

More than any other album, Guster's Lost and Gone Forever really resonates emotionally with me.

You should message me if

If you're artsy or sciency or mathy or bookish.
If you have a curious nature.
If you have some question needling you that I might be able to help you answer. Especially if it is a Philosophy, Math, or Fundamental Physics question.
If you know how I can keep my cat from periodically peeing in my hallway. (Fixed! Just line the entire hallway with litterboxes Muahaha!)
If you feel aesthetic appreciation when someone surprises you with an insightful counter point.
Or if it just strikes your fancy.
