oh i'm smart, just not smart enough.

About Me

if there is one thing that you'll ever believe from me, it's that sooner or later, i will disappoint you. you should know that, right now, before either of us start developing delusions that we'll be something we could never be. oh i'm sure i'll think you're a cool person, and most of the time you'll think i'm at least decent.. but don't get any bright ideas kid... i will let you down. i tell you this now, so it'll never have to come up again, and if it does, the responsibility lays solely upon you, cause after all, i have this in writing.

My Interests

i hate writing these, it's not like you are going to be like.. "oh my god, he likes what i like..." even if you did, it still wouldn't matter, cause things like these; don't. while most people love to exaggerate how cool they are, i prefer to not highlight it.. people should like people not cause the subject forces their interests down their throat. when it's more like bragging and less like heartfelt confession. saying anymore would insult your intelligence.

I'd like to meet:

People that do not need a paragraph of explanation, when a single sentence is more than enough.if you want to add me, just send me an email, and I'll give ya the heads up. if you're selling something (i.e. service, products, your band) be sure I'd want it, and if I don't you're getting flagged for spam. kthnxbye

Music:

... yeah.. you should probably read above. but i do like free advertising, so.. i like.. Cake, They Might Be Giants, Jiyuna, The Anchorite Four, The Dismemberment Plan, Modest Mouse. Even though, i hate it when people say things for me, John McCrea of Cake said it best;"In terms of where American music, and especially radio is at the moment, music seems to only be popular if it is a bulbous, over sized, muscular, striving rock and roll. For Cake, we are more about turning the volume down a bit, and not being entirely overt about emotion. Every song shouldn't be a soap opera, straight drama, or sadness, or humor. Doing that is simplistic, and the songs become distillates of real life. Our music has humor and sadness existing side by side, sitting on a couch, drinking a beer with one another."

Movies:

i prefer movies above books, but prefer a comic book above a movie. Movies are quite convenient though. Asian Cinema, Horror, Comedies, Post-Apocalyptic, Sci-Fi, what have you.

Television:

AdultSwim-ish, Simpsons, documentaries about people, technology, and/or nature, 24, Lost, Battlestar Galactica (new series), Heroes, The Riches, Human Giant, Upright Citizens Brigade, Reno 911, the state, SNL, Stella, the Daily Show (with Jon Stewart), SNL, MadTV, My Name is Earl, The Office (so far just the American version), Myth Busters, and much much more.

Books:

i don't like to read, well scratch that.. reading doesn't like me. Though i've only read a few books in my life, i've wanted to read more. Comics i'm reading, Kabuki, Dare Devil, Y The Last Man, Walking Dead, Astonishing X-men, anything ninja or samurai related.

Heroes:

my heroes include but are not limited too, David Mack , Benjamin Franklin , , Miyamoto Musashi , Masaaki Hatsumi , Sarah Silverman, and much much more.

myspace needs to seriously take control. the installed ads i can handle; their easy to ignore, plus they pay for the site. however...  this is something that starting to piss me off. &...
