About Me

Myspace Graphics
Myspace Layouts Don't know me personally? Well, I'm not exactly "regular" but I poop every now and then, SHIT, if you will. It happens, but, you know, shit. I listen to loud, fast music. I also listen anything that can be introspective without being whiny. Llike that group, AFI, or Good Charlotte. They suck. If you don't agree, then you're probably NOT one of my friends so please leave...now. Anyway, I play guitar. Yay. Ladies, stay back. One at a time...Like playing guitar get's you chicks.
