Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

Holy crap I graduated! I know everyone's envious of my degree in German Studies and Biology, and that's somehow fitting with working on 4th Ave :) I think learning pretty much rules, and I'm certainly considering grad school(or I might start over again to become a teacher in Germany). Right now, I'm in a certification program to teach English as a second or foreign language. Maybe I'll be teaching English in Greece or Spain in a year!
I'm from a small German speaking sub-community in southern Arizona that no one else in that town seems to know exists, and I have strong ties to both countries. Science and politics are very important to me, and I feel that 'not believing' in them or caring enough to be educated about either is a shameful personal flaw.
I've, rightly, been called a nerd, geek and weird. xkcd is my favorite webcomic though I used to be really into Megatokyo. I love Tucson and can be found downtown or on 4th Ave. regularly. I like dancing, blues dance, am politically active and love foreign movies. Playing board games with my friends is one of my favorite things to do(Arkham Horror is the current favorite). Did I mention that I love playing Devil's advocate?

Also, my roommate Jim has put some lovely edits to my profile. Maybe they'll explain more than anything I say :P

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

Trying to figure that out, actually. In the mean time, I try to coordinate and join in get-togethers of my friends, be it karaoke, Stitch and Bitch, parties or zombie walks.

I'm really good at Propose an edit

Listening, laughing like Naga, napping, judging people too harshly, and hunting the undead. Taking about literature! If you like the German Romantic period, we'd get along

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

Either that I'm incredibly quiet or that I'm very weird and outgoing. That depends on how reserved the person I meet seems

Jim's edit: Usually they notice my perky smile, perky attitude, and perky breasts. Once their eyes move up to mine however, they see the twitch and maniacal gleam. Usually at this point a subtle level of fear enters their hearts, encouraging them to take a more detailed look at me. This is when they discover the blood stains.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Fridays are for friends and fun, whether it be dancing downtown, watching a movie, talking over tea or playing a board game at home with a movie playing in the background.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

I had a political leaning but came to question its value and now feel lost because it seems like I'll never find one that seems 'good' but is also 'accomplishable'.

Also, I don't really like Italian food

Jim's edit: My lube of choice is a 1:1 mixture of blood and tears.

You should message me if Propose an edit

You feel so inclined!
Here's a list of things that make me more likely to respond to you:
1) Correct spelling of your/you're, their/they're/there and so on
2) Capitalization
3) Being a hardcore atheist
4) Having something interesting to say
Remember, odds are you're hoping to make a good impression! Act accordingly

However, you'll be rather rudely ignored if you're:
a) A Republican Bush groupie who doesn't care about the environment
b) A creationist or reject the theory of Evolution. I've argued the case of science, but I don't care to debate anymore with people who don't understand the concept of falsifiability
--on this note, if you truly feel the need to message me despite this, please read The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins. Reading that will explain where I stand on these things--
c) Looking for just sex. Seriously. Learn to read, I'm not looking for a sex partner. GO AWAY
d) A carrier of Ebola who wants to meet me
