You say 'Sociopath' like it's a bad thing...

About Me

Most of my friends find me to be a bit eccentric, and considering who most of my friends are, I find that to be a fair accomplishment. It's nothing I really aimed for, it's just that I'm the type who never really gave a damn about fitting in.
I've always had a very dry, sarcastic sense of humor. I consider it to be one of my more endearing traits, but some people have a hard time telling when I'm joking. Just remember, it's only my closest friends that get the death threats.
I am a cat person. I have always been a cat person. I will always be a cat person. If you can't stand cats, read no further. Go away. Now.
In the past few years, I've also become a ferret person. I used to not like them, but with my girlfriend having nine of them when we first met, they've had plenty of opportunity to grow on me (or just latch on with their sharp little teeth).
Music is one of the greatest loves of my life. I started playing keyboards at the age of twelve. I've played a wide range of genres over the years, but my favorites are classical, industrial, and funk.
I also love movies. My tastes are pretty diverse, but I have a special fondness for horror.
That pretty much covers the basics. If there's anything else you want to know, just ask. I don't bite unless asked nicely.

My Interests

Music, Psychology, Photography, Painting, Philosophy, Science, Technology

I'd like to meet:


People who share similar interests and can string words together in a somewhat coherent sentence. If I don't already know you from somewhere, write a brief introduction. I've had a few people send friend request who seemed rather "with it" on their profiles only to turn out to be raving nut-jobs.
Quick note: TO ALL MINORS!!! IF I DON'T ALREADY KNOW YOU, DON'T BOTHER SENDING A FREIND REQUEST!!! The few minors that are on my friends list are kids that I have tutored and/or mentored over the past few years. I only deal with kids when their parents know where they are.
Another quick note: TO ALL BANDS/ MUSICIANS. IF I DON'T ALREADY KNOW YOU, DON'T BOTHER SENDING A FREIND REQUEST. I don't care if your the hottest hip-hop artist to come out of Pakistan in the last decade. If you think I'll dig your music, send me a message and I'll check it out. If I like it, I'll send a friend request to you. I'm a hell of a lot more likely to repost bulletins for peole who don't strike me as being terminally lazy.
