About Me


Create your own friendquiz here
Hmm... lemme throw some words at this. insufferable prick. really, really, really slow to trust yet very loyal. I'm occasionally verbose and believe grammar is only a means to an end. I make horrible first impressions and my best friends all nearly hit me in the face upon first meeting. I am very passionate but don't take life too seriously most of the time. I have collected too much random information and sometimes am called Cliff Claven. occasional humorist. I have been called an asshole by some. Um, actually by many. occasionally exacting. storyteller or bullshitter - you decide. I don't much care for humanity but have an affinity for individuals. With every passing day I am becoming more of a Luddite. I try to leave one room in my home messy at any given time and i am incapable of cooking for less than four. I am terrified of driving in Louisville as the people here truly are some of the worst in this country. I believe office supplies aren't purchased- they just happen. I become bored rather easily these days and like to spend most of my time alone. I think the beatles were the most overrated band to have ever existed. lack of sunlight makes me grumpy and i try to hibernate in the winter and i hate being called baby.
my turn ons are
honesty, listening rather than waiting to speak, independence, thigh high fishnet stockings. glasses
things that turn me -off- include
Lies. Dishonesty. Betrayal. People not doing what they say they will. Dismissiveness
when it comes to politics
I feel dirty even watching politicians. Evil lot all of 'em.
my most recent disorder or neurosis...
has been mastered and subjugated to my will.
Things I don't understand...
voyeurism, exhibitionism, willful ignorance, the reason I am spending so much time on this
Quotables
I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women uh... women sense my power and they seek the life essence. I, uh... I do not avoid women, Mandrake. But I... I do deny them my essence.
This hole in my heart is in the shape of you. No one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?
People mistake kindness for weakness.
The enemy is anybody who's going to get you killed, no matter which side he's on.
You know, Mrs. Buckman, you need a license to buy a dog, to drive a car - hell, you even need a license to catch a fish. But they'll let any butt-reaming asshole be a father.
Well I've been faithful
And I've been so good
Except for drinking
But he knew that I would
What happened won't change. How I feel about it will.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
In times of change learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.
I found a woman who's soft but she's also hard While I slept she nailed down my heart
Pardon, good Mercutio, my business was great; and in such a case as mine a man may strain courtesy.
I propose a toast to my self control
You Are a Martini
There's no other way to say it: you're a total lush.
You hold your liquor well, and you hold a lot of it! What Mixed Drink Are You?

after a brief retrospective...

i have come to the conclusion that the ideal woman for me is a charismatic alcoholic with an obscene amount of baggage.
