About Me

Vinsanity. Occasional misanthrope.

My Interests

"It's obsessive. Once you're in up to your ankles, you want to be in up to your knees; once you're in up to your knees, you want to be in up to your waist. I like to think that it's sort of a beautiful sickness, because all humans need things that stimulate them intellectually and drive them to passion. But the secondary aspect is that many of us spend insane amounts of time dedicating ourselves to...collecting. It's a twisted pursuit. But where's the problem in that?" --The Island Of Lost Maps
