About Me

I'm vegan, a geek, a bit paranoid, a crazy drunk but otherwise boring, I am quiet until I feel strongly about something at which point I won't shut up, I am a pacifist who gets into a lot of fights (Jacke Chan syndrome: "I don't want any trouble. I just studied Kung Fu since I was 4, that's all"). Generally I just want a quiet life but end up in some I have mixed religious views, sometimes sympathetic, sometimes condescending, I TRY to be an intellectual but don't claim to be anything but the opposite, my head is full of useless tidbits, and erm... That's it really. You can't sum up a person with words alone so I won't bother.
