My self-summary
I am a conundrum wrapped in an enigma. Call me Ted.

Okay, ok. My name isn't really Ted. It's Joe, and I work...in a button factory.

Sorry, I'm being weird because I'm not currently trying to attract a mate.
What I’m doing with my life
I'm a problem-solver and researcher for a medical company marketing department. Basically I am Don Draper (JK).

I ride motorcycles.
I take pictures.
I play music.
I like to learn and teach.
I’m really good at
Asking you about yourself. What are you good at?
The first things people usually notice about me
The tattoo on my forehead...no. I don't think I stand so apart from the crowd aesthetically. Mustache? Camera? Doe eyes*?

Fair warning: if you're boring I may kill you.

*This woman in the Bellagio once swore I had the greatest Doe Eyes she had ever seen, that she didn't really know what it meant to have doe eyes until she met me. Her husband was right there, it was a little awkward, but then he and I discussed technology, which he liked to think was brought to us by aliens. I got half the conversation on video before my battery died. I missed the bit about the Doe Eyes. There are a lot of drunk people, and a lot of weird people, in Las Vegas, but they are usually very nice to me.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Ahh,
H2G2, Catch-22, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Virgin Suicides, Vonnegut, Palahniuk...that kind of stuff was formative for me. I still read quite a bit. Recent completions include Why Zebras don't get Ulcers, Unconscious Branding and Fun Home (Bechdel).

He Died with a Felafel in His Hand, The Rage in Placid Lake, Walkabout, and other lighthearted Australian comedies. I like to be thrown off, too- Beautiful People, Welcome to the Dollhouse, The Edukators, American Beauty...

I tend to like USA network stuff...Oh, and Misfits! Nowadays I don't really have time for TV, but when I do, it's more Mad Men, Downton Abbey, Dr. Who, Community, and ArDev.

Gosh...this stuff? http://grooveshark.com/#/photos.graphic
A girl on OKC turned me on to Band of Horses (no pun intended.) I thank her for that. Local bands I've liked include Nelsonvillains, Wind-Up Bird, Zan Strumfeld, anything fronted by Brian from the Coffee Shoppe.

I like food. I'm kindof modified paleo-diet.
The six things I could never do without
My mind, my senses, people, surprises, music, coffee.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
How to help myself so I can better help others. I have a plan to help save the world.

Forer effect. OKC claims to have matched us using carefully crafted algorithms. In reality, there is a cat in a box with a keyboard. They feed it Tuesdays. That magical connection you feel is just hormones.

Also, the women on this site have, on average, much better pictures than on modeling websites. Maybe that's just brooklyn girls, though, where 99% of my matches seem to reside.
On a typical Friday night I am
Curled up inside, or adventuring. I prefer to dance at home, and I am not a bar crawler. Maybe if I had more energy that would change.
I’m looking for
  • Girls who like guys
  • Ages 21–35
  • Near me
  • For new friends, activity partners, long-distance penpals
You should message me if
You've thought about it but you're not sure, you want to, you'd hate to, I'm your nemesis or you're in love. If you don't care, neither do I.
