FIDo Almighty

All things die--eventually even stars burn out.

About Me

My name's FIDo, or John. I'm shy, quirky, and I have a weird view of what's funny. I'm cynical as well. Which tends to grate on my more 'love will conquer all' type friends. I'm majoring in graphic design/interactive design. I also have aspirations to be an author, but I haven't written much lately. I'm usually the 'fly on the wall' kind of person so it gives me an interesting perspective on humanity. If you want to know any more just ask.
Favorite type of humor: Sarcasm, the absurd, and dark humor.
I am NOT a friend whore
"I'm an outsider by choice, but not truly. It's the unpleasantness of the system that keeps me out. I'd rather be in, in a good system. That's where my discontent comes from: being forced to choose to stay outside. My advice: Just keep movin' straight ahead. Every now and then you find yourself in a different place." -- George Carlin

A Wii for mii

Sunday's a few short days away and the Wii will be launched, finally. I'm rather excited and I rarely get excited these days about anything.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Black friday's coming up and what better weather to hope for than slushy snow? Really, I hate consumers and their stupid H2's and H3's and whatever other awful SUV that's out there. So, this year I wi...

True Terrorists

This year's campaign season is the most brutal I've seen since I started following politics--at least as far as scare tactics are concerned. I thought the 'wolf' ad in 2004 was offensive to my sensibi...

Friday's shenanigans

I forgot to post this very vaguely funny (if you're a gamer) anecdote as I was in the EB putting my down payment on the Wii I noticed the dirt covered floormat in front of the check-out counter. It wa...
