About Me

What do I say about myself? 1. I'm really not one to toot my own horn unless I KNOW I'm right. 2. I'm 25 and graduated college a year ago. 3. I'm PRETTY sure I'd like to design toys or action figures of some nature... but things really do change over time. 4. I'm still a very big kid at heart, but at the same time I've let the world put a hard shell around some of that naivety for my own good. 5. I can be blunt to a point. I'm not always so good with tact. I feel that most times you need to be told what needs to be told to you and not always how you'd like it to be told to you. 6. I cannot always practice what I preach, but I'm learning 7. I live at home because it is convenient 8. I do not drive because I am too lazy to get my permit and cannot afford a car 9. I am a dreamer 10. I try to apply what I call "Saturday Morning Logic". Basically its all of the common sense you should have learned as a child, but forgot it growing up and are doing something stupid. 11. I love my family with all my heart, but could stand to move away from Pittsburgh when a job finally requires. 12. I am an awesome boyfriend, but sometimes I'm flighty and selfish 13. I'm allergic to nuts, eggs, and poultry among other things. 14. I love comic books, action figures, and anime. 15. I would love to wear a costume to a convention for the above. 16. I feel I need to work out more to look better in my eyes as well as in any costume I'd wear to said conventions. 17. I absolutely need to draw and sculpt more 18. I love ever improving technology, but fear the inevitable robot invasion AND that I might join them (http://www.humansunitedagainstrobots.com) 19. Role Models for the new world Keith and the Girl Podcast (http://www.keithandthegirl.com) 20. BRUMSKI! (...NO BRUMSKI!)

My Interests

My primary interests have always been dorky things like Comics, Anime, Action Figures, things of that nature. When I'm not doing those things, or surfing the World Wide Interwebs, I can be found spending time with my brothers and our closest friends hanging out and most likely getting drunk! Guinness, White Russians, or Jack&Cokes will make my night. I have both a favorite gay and straight bar to enjoy them in. I also have a thing for black leather and whatever you might associate with it. I'm pretty broad like that so if you can think it I either have done it or want to ^_--

I'd like to meet:

I'd love to meet anyone who is creative, individual, fun, especially fun... Ya know what? If you buy me a drink I will probably be your best friend at least until it's finished. I'm a whore like that... not really... but seriously, buy me a beer!

Music:

meh, Still putting this off because there are far to many to list in my tired state... --_--zzz

Movies:

Television:

Let's get this outta the way first. Most television today is total sh*t and I don't like it. I have just a few shows that I watch currently like DOCTOR WHO, TORCHWOOD, HEROES, LOST, SUPERNATURAL, ONE TREE HILL, and FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS. Shows that have come and gone but left their mark would be BUFFY/ANGEL/FIREFLY, WONDERFALLS, SLIDERS (S1-3), LAUGH-IN, KIDS IN THE HALL, COUPLING, ARE YOU BEING SERVED?, BLACKPOOL... I enjoy a lot of old comedy, some hoaky sci-fi, and of course some awesome action-packed cartoons from my 1980s(and some from the 90s).

Books:

I generally stick to funny books in this section. My favorite writers currently are BRIAN K. VAUGHN, JOSS WHEDON, and BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS. With exceptional writers in the comic book industry come exceptional artists like SKOTTIE YOUNG, CHRIS BACHELO, BILLY TAN, and TONY HARRIS!!I read a LOT of comics in the span of a month: 1. X-MEN, UNCANNY X-MEN, NEW X-MEN, X-FACTOR, & ASTONISHING X-MEN 2. NEW AVENGERS, MIGHTY AVENGERS, AVENGERS INITIATIVE,& YOUNG AVENGERS 3. JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA 4. BUFFY TVS- SEASON 8 5. EX MACHINA & Y:THE LAST MAN 6. THE BOYS 7. ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN 8. RUNAWAYS

Heroes:

A hero is someone that does for others and puts themselves on hold. A hero is extraordinary with/or without special powers. A hero can change the lives of others for the better, even if it's ever only one person. A hero is tough, brave, strong, and devoted to a cause of justice when needed to be those things. Are you a hero?

"Try not to die."

It's never really all that fun to be proven wrong, is it?  Pretty sure it sucks most of the time. But once in a while you find that it's ok that you were wrong and you are very glad that you were...
