Rarity is NOT bliss.

About Me

Hey I'm Nate, 26, Blonde, Blue-eyed. I'm a goofball goober who's into meeting new people (although in real-life, it hardly happens easily). I'm into pretty normal stuff, but I like to keep my eyes/mind going constantly for new ventures. I work in a warehouse at night, and by day, I'm a hibernating creature.Extended Network Banner made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own!

My Interests

Industrial night clubs, old video games, guitars, drums, computer-made music, Photoshop-ing every image known to man, existencialism, psychology, Germany, European-political movements, anarchy, love, and maybe, (someday again) sexual encounters.

I'd like to meet:

People who don't mind my bitching (a new trait that has manifested itself more and more throughout the years) and ranting. Fellow hermits of the night. Cool open-minded people.
And the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
