I'm a big dork. All my favorite people are big dorks. I don't trust people who aren't nerdily passionate about something. I'm not socially awkward or anything. I have plenty of friends. When it comes down to it though, I like reading and taking it easy.

I'm fun to drink with, I'm a good bullshitter. I love getting into rambling debates. Sometimes I play the devil's advocate for no reason. I can't dance. Seriously.

I get along with most people, and I'm interested in lots of things. I'm comfortable in most crowds. I believe that people should express themselves through ideas more than appearances.

I'm teaching English in Bangkok and having a good time. I wish I had more money, but so does everyone.

I'm starting to carve out a niche here and want to meet new people.

Picking out memes before they explode. Pushing things over. Going with the flow. Procrastinating. Eating. (And cooking, but not so much in Thailand.)

I read a lot. I usually will read 2-3 non fiction books in a row, then treat myself with cheesy sci fi. I probably don't read enough contemporary fiction. I like Douglas Coupland and Tom Robbins. I liked Kurt Vonnegut. (I guess I still do.) I like Neal Stephensen. I'm not huge into classics, though I try to read something out of the canon every few months. I like most of George Orwell's stuff. I like most of Hemmingway's stuff. I like Cormac McCarthy. I can safely say that I don't like Don Delilo.

I like audio books. I still read comic books, I guess people call them graphic novels.

I like tons of movies. I might be the only person in the world that didn't like Boondock Saints, be forewarned.

I'm not huge on romantic comedies. I think Love Actually and High Fidelity were pretty good.

I like cheesy action movies in the martial arts vein, not a huge fan of Michael Bay-type action movies.

I think Quentin Tarrantino is consistently good. The Cohen brothers always do a good job. I like Wes Andersen, but maybe not as much as I'm supposed to. I thought that No Country for Old Men was great. Children of Men was pretty top notch.

The internet, honestly. Alone time. Friends. Good food and good beer. I miss having a bicycle. I miss cold weather and being able to walk in the woods.

I studied anthropology and history at university. I spend a lot of time reading books that touch on either.

I spend too much time thinking about food, both eating and producing it. (Lot's of Michael Pollan stuff.)

I think a lot about the future, the economy, the environment and oil.

I'm big on reading about intellectual history and the history of science. I'm a die hard skeptic and am kind of uneasy about religious fundamentalism.

I like looking at society through the principles of behaviorism, economics and natural selection. I'm not a social Darwinist, but I think Dawkins draws some interesting parallels between biological and cultural evolution.

Getting ready to work on Saturday morning. I guess Thursdays are my big night, but I haven't nailed down a routine yet.

Do people every answer this? I wish I was taller.

You want to. I'm not a big romantic, but I like meeting new people.
