Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

I have a dry sense of humor. I am not a cynic but I definitely act like one. I preach pacifism and try to practice it but I would never blame someone for using force to defend against force in a manner appropriate and proportionate to the original act of force. I keep my spirituality to myself but will argue against other faiths if they preach intolerance or other forms of bigotry. I firmly believe that supporting the troops is seeing them as victims of war rather than as heroes. November 11 is still armistice day to me. As a proud descendant of hard working immigrants I feel for the people who come to this country but I don't condone any kind of handouts. I try to pay forward the charity given to me in life by my family, friends, and kind strangers. I can be emotionally distant and fiercely independent. I want out of the social security system. I'll argue my point till I'm blue in the face. I kick the toxic people in my life out. Kurt Vonnegut is my hero. I will not eat green beans. I am a nostalgic bastard. I enjoy thinking films as well as giant robots beating the crap out of each other films. My favorite books and movies are the ones that can make me laugh and cry. By cry I mean figuratively because I rarely cry. If you wrote this on your page i would read the whole thing. I am a know it all, I consider myself right until proven wrong. I am nosy. I meddle, usually for good reasons, occasionally to create humorous strife. I come from two catholic families, both of which have since left the church entirely. My longest relationship was nine months long, it ended without much of a fight. I would get hitched in Vegas with a stranger just to test fate. I don't believe in fate all that much. I don't believe in soul mates or love at first sight. Camping is one of my favorite activities. When I'm excited I act very child like.

food, water, air, music, ducks, and hope

In less vague terms I mean;

Sustinance be it for the body, mind, or soul.

Water to wash away the things that are best not retained.

Air and the other things we can't see but desperately need.

Music speaks for itself.

Ducks and other quirky things that bring simple joy.

Hope, being the best of all things necessary for the belief that things can get better no matter how bad or good they currently are.
