About Me

Uh ... I am boring.Well, no I'm not. But I hate talking about myself. I come off as a pompous ass when I say shit like I've studied 7 languages, just got back from living in Germany, and wear super cool geek glasses.Wait. Since when I do I care about modesty? I am an unapologetic sarcastic and arrogant ass most of the time.I have studied 7 languages, speak a couple of them very well or decently. Major in the ever so wonderfully pretentious Classical Studies (that's the study of Ancient Greece and Rome for those who don't know .. meaning just about everyone), though it would be better if it weren't a shit uni. "I study Latin at Oxford" would sound so much more awesome than "I study Latin at the University of Manitoba". Stinger.Yeah, I don't know what to write here.

My Interests

I'd like to be sarcastic or witty here, but I'm having a shameful mental block.Language, linguistics, history, genetics, anthropology ... plus the usual shit like being with friends, travelling, listening to music, etc.

I'd like to meet:

Non-stupid people.Seriously. I hate you if you are a moron.Now, some people are born stupid. That's ok, I accept those people. It's the willfully stupid people that I detest.Anyone who knows what these things mean: Linear A & B, Etruscan, Commentarii de Bello Gallico

Music:

I listen to a bit of basically every genre. I suppose I like rock best.

Movies:

Uh, lots of movies? Movies are nice. I can't think of any off the top of my head right now that I really enjoy.

Television:

Well, see, the problem is, I just moved back from a year in Germany, so I missed a season of a lot of shows and have no idea what is going on. But I have no life so I watch TV anyways. The norms like The Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy (old eps, never seen any of the new ones). Also started liking Grey's Anatomy since I've been back.And, I'm a massive nerd, so I watch all the documentaries and such on Discovery Civilization, The History Channel, that type of stuff.And the non-documentary nerdy shows ... I have to come clean. I watch Stargate SG1 and Atlantis. Especially Atlantis. I'm such a dork, but I don't care.

Books:

There are two series' that I particularly like. "Lord of Two Lands" by Pauline Gedge, and "Song of Ice and Fire" by George R.R. Martin.I like historical fiction, fantasy, sci-fi, horror, and a good old fashioned smut novel.

Heroes:

Jean-François Champollion, the more famous of the people who worked on deciphering Egyption hieroglyphics (fuck off, I already said I'm a nerd and I like languages and linguistics) Also, the people who worked on deciphering Linear B.I will be the one to decipher Linear A, mark my words.
