My name's Jake, I moved out to Brooklyn about a year ago from Minnesota, but I'm originally from NJ so I'm an East Coaster at heart, and it reflects in my ability to tell it like it is. I am a very honest person (sometimes too much so) and while this may sound blunt, what you see is what you get (though I don't take many pictures, so maybe not physically. I'll work on it, I promise). As for what you get, I love to make people laugh, so expect many attempts at humor (many of which will hopefully hit). I'm a huge film and TV nerd as well as a huge sports fan, so if you like talking about these things ad nauseum, you're in luck!

Working at a production company, running, reading, listening to podcasts.

Remembering useless facts about sports, movies, and TV shows. I'm really good at being on time. I'm good at making plans and following up on texts and e-mails. I like to think I'm good at making people laugh, or at least inducing a bemused chuckle. I'm also very good at being honest, perhaps too good to the point where I can't stop myself.

That I'm tall or my glasses.

I have too many favorite movies to mention, but I like to say my film taste ranges from Citzen Kane to Snakes on a Plane. As for TV, my favorite shows are Breaking Bad, The Wire, Game of Thrones, Mad Men, South Park, all the comedies on FX, Homeland, 30 Rock, Parks and REC Sons of Anarchy, Freaks and Geeks/Undeclared, Joss Whedon stuff, Doctor Who, Sherlock. Yes, I watch too much TV. As for music, I love all kinds of old stuff, from classic 70's rock to early 90's rap, I'm all over the map (yes, I AM the Rhymenoceros). I do read quite a bit (thanks, library card). I listen to podcasts more often, like WTF and Nerdist. My favorite foods are Quaker Oat Squares, sausage pizza, and chocolate ice cream, but in terms of cuisine, I'm always in the mood for Italian or a good burger.

Outside of basic needs:
1. My friends
2. Netflix
3. Cereal for breakfast
4. Exercise
5. My five senses
6. Sports

my future and all the paths it could take. Also see the books/movies/shows/music/food section. What the lives of those break dancers on the subway are like even though I simultaneously wish they would stop and go away.

Out with my friends, watching Netflix, or hanging out with my friends while watching Netflix.

I'm afraid of lightning and therefore thunderstorms in general. I know, not very manly, is it?

you want to talk to someone who has never thought of taking a shirtless picture in the mirror because I'm not a douche-clown. Do that many people really do that?

If you like to talk about movies/TV for hours on end, we'll probably get along, but if you message me, you'll see my conversational abilities are quite versatile.
