About Me

I don't tend to talk alot, I'd rather lay back and listen..but when I do, it usually counts. I tend to be retardedly shy with new people at first, so bear with me - or buy me a drink, that usually helps. I love illustration and stuff. I really want to go to Iceland or Brazil or Japan or India or wherever, so let's be friends and come with me. Bike rides and comedy shows and camping and films and concerts make me very happy.

"Will a day come when the race will detect the funniness of these juvenilities and laugh at them--and by laughing at them destroy them? For your race, in its poverty, has unquestionably one really effective weapon--laughter. Power, Money, Persuasion, Supplication, Persecution--these can lift at a colossal humbug,--push it a little-- crowd it a little--weaken it a little, century by century: but only Laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast. Against the assault of Laughter nothing can stand." -- Mark Twain
