I am here for Friends

About Me

I don't really use Myspace much. My MySpace page is mostly here so that I can keep track of some friends I'd fall out of touch with otherwise. It's also here so that people can find me - mostly people I already know. If you're looking for where I really "live" online, there are four places to try.

OtakuBooty. This is my baby and you can often catch me on the forums there.

My Livejournal. Sure, journals are lame, but they're a good way to keep up with the minutia of the lives of people you actually give a shit about. Probably 1/3 of my posts are friends-only on there so if you find yourself reading this then we should probably do the frends thing on there so that you can see the whole sordid thing. http://ghostfaceposta.livejournal.com

My Flickr account. I just started it and expect to be adding more pictures soon because I like it a lot. http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnrose/

AIM, GTalk, or Email. Probably the easiest way to reach me. Just message me here on Myspace if you want these.


Facebook. I have a Facebook account now. Like my MySpace account, it's basically a way for people to find me as opposed to something I actively use a lot.

My Interests

Music collecting, photography, games, computers, coding, OSX, my cats, art, bikes, anime, reading, etc. I also like to have drinks with friends.

I'd like to meet:

I'm mostly here to keep in touch with people I already know. But you're the exception.I want to meet you beacuse you're smart and funny. You think the world is kind of an absurd place but you love the wonderful, smelly nonsense of it all. You think that misanthropy is for the the dregs of the world because you know that negativity is easy and being an awesome person isn't.

Music:

Bit of an omnivorous popular-music collector here. Dislike filing music into genres but for the sake of brevity I'll say that favorite genres include hip-hop, Britpop, shoegaze, psychedelic, and power-pop.

Favorite bands would include Super Furry Animals, Beatles, Public Enemy, Broadcast, Sparks, Talking Heads, Tribe Called Quest, and a crapzillion others.

Movies:

I like 60s-70s crime drams, dumb comedies, Asian films, and stuff. My favorite movie is "The Seven Samurai".

Television:

Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development (RIP), Battlestar Galactica. I don't watch too much TV.

Books:

Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy. I also like the "A Song Of Ice And Fire" series by George RR Martin, which is awesomely trashy and gritty.

Heroes:

Douglas Adams. Really the only person I'd call a hero.

My Blog

Well, blow me down!

Long time no talk!I recently moved from Norristown PA to the Manayunk section of Philadelphia. I'm still unpacking but if any of you are nearby, "holler at ya boy" as those colorful lads on the radio...

I never post here, do I?

I'm not a big MySpace person, as you can see!  This is probably the worst possible place you could go for up-to-the-minute news on me.But I don't see enough of some of you, either in real life or...
