My self-summary Propose an edit

Quickmatch: stryperRULES

Hi, the name's Andy. Given my almost unhealthy fondness for them, this section will be in list form!

* I'm primarily here for friends and tests, but if something else develops, that's cool, too. "The Backrubber" test result is very correct.

* I'll probably come across as an asshole, and that usually doesn't bother me, so I may very well have some asshole-ish tendencies.

* I'm a fan of Canada. And Finland. And Ireland.

* I'm really bad at arguing (I can think of some really great comebacks/facts... the day after), which is why I usually don't voice my opinion unless I'm completely sure of what I think. Coming across as a blathering idiot is something I'd like to avoid.

* Extremely INTJ, if that means anything to you.

* I have no self-esteem/confidence. No, scratch that - I do, but it's sporadic. Worry not, I'm still quite self-deprecating (much better than being self-defecating, let me tell you). When the courage does come around, however, there's a LOT of it. Thanks to that, I rarely initiate conversations - either online or in person - unless I'm hopped up on some sort of stimulant or slightly inebriated.

(The no-self-esteem thing is a bit outdated now, replaced by a general dislike of most people, but I like this bullet point, so it stays)

* I lift weights, and it's something I take very seriously. At the risk of sounding like an idealistic sap, it's really one of the best things I've ever done. I've got more confidence and am generally in a better mood most of the time now. PLUS getting bigger and stronger to crush/oppress my enemies is pretty cool, too.

* I also (try to) play the guitar and a few other instruments. I've played for around 12 years now, so it's a shame that I still suck. Maybe I'd get better if I would stick to it for an appreciable length of time.

* I seem to have a dry sense of humour, and not everyone appreciates that. There's a good chance I'll offend you sooner or later, but I assure you it's (probably) accidental.

* I don't know where that "less well-mannered" comes from; I'm polite to a fault most of the time.

* It is delicious cake. I must eat it.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

Learning and lifting; strengthening both mind and body. Where that leads, I have no clue. And I'm becoming more and more okay with that, which in turn kind of frightens me.

I'm really good at Propose an edit

I don't particularly care for it, but apparently I'm good at listening/offering solutions to other people's problems. But in more practical matters, I like to think I'm a fairly good cook, artist (sketching, at least), and guitarist (though I happen to have slacked off as of late). I'm also quite adept at making a fool of myself, intentionally or not.

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

General size, wearing a lot of black, and/or the beard?

My favorite books, movies, music, and food Propose an edit

Books: I'll read just about anything, but I'm rather partial to fantasy books in the vein of Dungeons & Dragons and the like.

Movies: Very similar to favourite books.

Music: Power metal, folk metal, and (a little) death metal, bluegrass, old country/gospel music, surf rock, bagpipes. And ABBA.

Food: MEAT. Though I'm always - ALWAYS - up for some sushi and beer.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

My future, what I'm going to accomplish in my lifetime, how people will remember me after I die, how to AVOID dying...

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

If I'm not working, then I'm probably at the gymnasium lifting heavy things. On Saturday, however (again, if not working), out having an adventure of some kind. Occasionally playing a rousing (not to be confused with arousing, though there are times...) game of Dungeons & Dragons or some other kind of pen & paper RPG.

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

I sometimes forget whose profiles I've looked at and end up looking like a stalker when I happen upon them again. But a harmless stalker.

You should message me if Propose an edit

You want to. Don't expect much conversation, though - I'm a quiet sort and it takes a while for me to warm up to someone.
