What Flower
Are You?
My sandwiches need to be cut in half on the diagonal, I want triangles not rectangles.

I'm here to kick ass and chew gum, and I'm all out of chewing gum.
I don't care what music you THINK I might like... or that sounds just like _____. Seriously, go fuck yourself.

I'm not only a member of the misanthrope club, I'm also the co-president.

My Interests



I'd like to meet:

..
The Flying Spagetti Monster

I want to have dinner with Anthony Bourdain & Rachel Ray. Then sit back and enjoy the show as Anthony says something witty and derogatory about Rachel and they decide to have a steel cage death match - two man enter, one man leaves.

Sara Teasdale

Someone who when I make a damn pop culture reference to, will know what the hell I am talking about.

People who don't talk about hockey, ever.

People who will come over to my house so I don't have to go and deal with undergrads in Chapel Hill.

People who alphabetize their music collection.

Which Britpop Band Are You?

You are Blur. Youre daring, fun, and a breath of fresh air. Some people may find you intimidating, but generally youre well liked. You have a tendency to speak without thinking, which usually comes back to bite you in the arse but you have a good heart and everything you say should be taken with a pinch of salt.
