About Me

I really hate having to sum myself up in a cozy little blurb. I'll save you some time by saying that if you enjoy reality shows or any other primetime TV bullshit, you don't want to talk to me.If MTV/Muchmusic/Radio is your main source for "new" music, you don't want to talk to me, and more importantly, I want nothing to do with you. If your favourite CD (you know...the one with the last video you saw on TV) could adequately be described as a very long commercial for cars and clothes, I want nothing to do with you.If you have several knee-jerk reflex answers or opinions regarding controversial issues (religion, politics, war) without actually having taken the time to think about WHY things are the way they are, and WHY you think what you think about them, save yourself the time and don't bother me.If you would ever describe yourself as a "victim", I don't want to talk to you. Bad things happen to everyone. If they empower you and make you determined, good for you. If they make you sit and cry and point the finger, and deny YOUR responsibility to fix your life, just fucking die already.If you think Satanists are a worldwide network of lunatics who kill babies/puppies/hamsters/whatever, and have moonlit orgies/sacrifices and whatnot, you are a brainwashed moron and are of little to no use to me. We don't make up filth like that. Christians do.Despite my misanthropic tendencies, I think I have a fairly positive outlook on life and my place in the world. I try not to sweat the small stuff, and I'm usually pretty good at keeping my cool when things get tough. I like to laugh and have a good time, I definitely do NOT take myself too seriously (I leave that up to the religious zealots of the world), and I'd do anything to make sure that my family and friends are happy. I don't expect the world to share my beliefs. I only ask that I not be asked to share the world's beliefs. I don't ask the world for anything, and I would therefore prefer that nothing is asked of me.If you're still reading this and are not irreparably offended, send me a message! We'd probably get along great! :D

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Angelina Jolie, Rush, Slayer, and Meshuggah. Everyone else I admire is dead. :..

Nazi bullshit

Every couple of months or so, I'll be out somewhere and some total stranger approaches me out of nowhere and asks me if I'm a neo-Nazi. (if I'm lucky all they do is ask, I've had everything from...

The resignation letter that never got sent.

To all concerned: It is with a heavy heart, and a tremendous feeling of loss and regret that I must announce my resignation from my position as Full Time Punk/Metal sales associate at the HMV S...

Wicked bandmates

I've been complaining about having to walk over to my amp to tune and control my effects for a long time. I was gonna tell my friends and family just to give me cash for my birthday on Aug 13th so I ...

I'm in a band! Finally!

I moved to Toronto 5 years ago, with a lot of hopes about getting into a really killer band and finally playing some music that I really enjoy. I went to school for music, jammed with tons of people t...

So I'm trying out this new MySpace video thing, and I got it to work. I'm not as dumb as I thought! The first video I uploaded is a live clip of "Undertow" by Pain of Salvation, quite possibly t...

When stereotypes attack!

More entertainment from the front lines of the HMV Metal section. Normally I try not to think in stereotypical ways, since I'm quite often the victim of stereotypical thinking, but you have to admit.....

I met Samoth. My co-workers think I'm weird.

Yup, so there I was at work and my friend Erin comes up to the counter and asks me if we have the Strapping Young Lad DVD because her husband is looking for it. For those of you who don't know, Erin i...

Dead Pope

So the Pope's dead. It's about fucking time. I'd probably care about it a little more if I knew they weren't just gonna replace him with another one. Who knows? Maybe his successor will be even ...
