I'd like to meet:
If you fancy yourself 'normal' or have never imagined yourself the fedora-wearing main character of a film noir, I'm not for you.
I tend to gravitate towards people prone to spontaneous dark chocolate cake baking at one in the morning. People that make phone calls from bathtubs full of pink soap suds and sometimes secretively throw salt over their shoulders at restaurants. Those who have jaunty smiles hanging halfway from their mouths and offer their elbow for grand entrances.
