My Self-Summary

I'm new to the city and looking to meet people who like more than a pinch of repartee to flavor their conversations. Someone who likes to talk for hours on end about absolutely nothing, and yet come away convinced that some tangential diversion has in fact uncovered a heretofore undiscovered universal truth. Or has indeed destroyed universal truth. Or is about what's in Jules' briefcase. Or how your uncle is a headcase. It doesn't really matter, if you got what the Brits like to call 'the chat' I'm game.

What I’m doing with my life

PARKOUR!

I’m really good at

Inclusion. You know that situation where a group of people sort of stand in a way so that newcomers/awkward people don't feel like part of the conversation? Closing the circle? I have an uncanny ability to recognize and rectify that.

Also write songs and play a bunch of instruments, though probably prouder of the inclusion thing.

The first things people usually notice about me

Gregariousness, and if I'm in my element a subversive and likely inappropriate sense of humor

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: sundry non-fiction with a healthy dose of Kundera and Twist
Movies: huge sucker for anything sufficiently stylized or irreverent
Music: generally like it if its from the 1970s, has interesting vocal harmonies or prominent analog synthesizers. Did I just describe the Alan Parsons Project?
Food: once ate a live octopus while living overseas. Here marks the moment where offended vegans can politely close the tab in Firefox. It's ok, I deserve it.

The six things I could never do without

Trying new cuisine, epic weekends, inside jokes, empty adverbs modifying cliche phrases on lists like this, really amazing friends, counter-intuitive ideas

I spend a lot of time thinking about

how not to make this section what my friend called "the nadir of your profile." social interactions, namely trying to understand why people/I don't cut through the bullshit more often.

On a typical Friday night I am

Quixotically trying to co-ordinate 4 or 5 groups of unacquainted people to meet at some bar not a single of us have been to before, giving up around 1am, drinking with random hillbillies, dancing ass off until next day hangover is assured.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I don't have my shit together nearly as well as most people probably think I do

You should message me if

You are adventurous, a night-owl, a little to a lot bit kooky, and prefer being with people to watching TV by yourself. Unless that show is It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. In which case, message me immediately.

Bonus points if you have both pretentious tendencies and an uncanny ability to hide that fact to everyone but your closest confidants.
