Since I like doing things assbackwards, let me say who I DON'T wanna meet, either here or in person: Poseurassholes, especially those that think that getting close to me will get them upcloseandpersonal with my "famous" friends.
OH...take a moment or two to send me a brief note BEFORE you send an add request: LUBE ME UP FIRST, ya know??? Hate to be that way about it now...but am NOT here for the numbers but for the groove. And if you don't have time to get a little personal before asking to be added to my friends list, then there's no room at the inn for ya...all requests WITHOUT some sort of introductory hi-bye-or-kiss-my-ass email are automatically marked as spam and deleted.
