Codename: Awesome!

I am here for Friends

About Me

My sister used to steal the first bite of my mac n cheese just to irk me. Now I don't like to share my food, but I am learning to.
For lunch sometimes I like to have a big bowl of meat, with tomato sauce, parmesan, pepper, tabasco, thyme, and other assorted spices.
I tell jokes to myself. Most of them are funny. Sometimes I sing to myself about stuff I'm happy about, James Brown style: "I got some Chee-tos, and I'm gonna eat them later! Ungh! Orange fingers, ha!" like that. Other times I sing along with guitar solos MEOW-style, a la Supertroopers and Scott White. Bohemian Rhapsody and Hotel California are especially good for this.
A good friend once told me I'm elitist. It's true, peons. Hell, I'm also elitest. Believe it, bitches.I'm easily amused despite my stellar IQ (~400+!). Non sequiturs amuse me. Stupid web comics like White Ninja and Homestar Runner and Minus and Cyanide & Happiness and The Perry Bible Fellowship amuse me. I also love bash.org and Alien Loves Predator and Life in Plastic Pants and Dinosaur Comics and you should too.I have cool green slippers. My parents gave them to me for Christmas a while back. Joe says they are old man style, but I say they are awesome style.I can usually see both sides.Mistakes are the best teacher. You always know you've learned something when you say, "Well, I won't do that again!" For example, never leave milk in a thermos.It bugs me that you can never get ALL of your clothes clean, unless you do your laundry nekkid, but that's kind of weird. Except if you're a hot chick, in that case call me.I like to mix my mashed potatoes with corn. I like beer and motorcycles but not together. I like computer games, especially the ones where you can get headshots. Sports are boring to watch on TV but can be fun live.War solves everything. Just like yelling. If you yell, problems are fixed, automatically. But in war, nobody can hear you yelling. So you have to yell with high explosives. And napalm.Sometimes I have so much to say. Sometimes I don't have anything to say. Also I like kittens.
