Your Notes
Edit your notesI am tall, dark, and oingo.
My Self-Summary
If you want to know me, your best shot (aside from actually meeting) is reading my journal entries. I find these boxed lists representing ourselves to be goofy and misleading.
I must add: "If thou dost seek to have what thou dost hide,
By self-example mayst thou be denied!" That means that if we don't meet in real life at some point - why are you on here, silly person? (That's sorta what that means, anyway.)
What I’m doing with my life
I sometimes tend to ramble.
I am the sole officer of a legally shaky trust fund supporting a hostel for transient academics, salesfolk, and occasional opera singers managed by a man who sings Teddy Bear's Picnic at jazz clubs.
I do the techwriting despite not knowing much about these modern gizmos everyone's dependent on nowadays.
I'm debating between grad school for evolutionary psychology, becoming a sommelier, and joining the Peace Corp.
The more I try to sell myself here, the more I feel my soul getting a nasty tummy ache.
I’m really good at
The first things people usually notice about me
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Tomes: Master & Margarita, Henry Miller, Richard Dawkins (when he's not being a dick), Pynchon, Dashiell Hammett, Phil K Dick, certain Vonnegut, David Hume, and whatever I'm reading at the moment, really.
Flicks 'n The Tube: Network, Eternal Sunshine (all Kaufman and Gondry), 60's Trek, Home Movies, The Boyfriend (all Ken Russell, 'specially the musicals), Punch Drunk Love, certain Hepburn (both of em), certain O. Wells, Cary Grant anything, and the Coens before Fargo (yes, I know what I'm saying). I like a lot of horror movies too, but not when they're mean-spirited; I hate modern horror - 'tis all misogynistic torture fantasy which offends me while being uninteresting.
Music: Talking Heads, David Bowie, Tom Waits, Ethel Waters, Dresden Dolls, more David Bowie, Phenomenauts, Philip Glass, Joan Jett, The Who, DEVO, The Steel Tips (if you know them, I'll be impressed), Dean Martin, Lisa Hannigan, The New York Dolls, Vampire Weekend, and when I was in high school I liked Jewel (Her hands are small, I know. Jimminy, what was wrong with me?)
Nosh: I try new stuff constantly, and I want it extra spicy. I'm not kidding, make mine spicy - no, not California spicy. Actual spicy! Also eating with chop sticks is always more satisfying.
The six things I could never do without
I spend a lot of time thinking about
On a typical Friday night I am
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
You should message me if
Message me if you slapped Jack Dempsey in the face
And you make barbed wire look like lace
Then you throw yourself right out of place
If, bullets, they bounce right off your chest
And you snuggle up on a hornet's nest
If you's the gal sends show men west
And you pull a train right off the tracks
And for perfume, you use shellac
If when mad dogs bite, you bite 'em back
Boop-oop-a-doop.
