About Me

I'm basically an optimistic pessimist who thinks everybody should be as honest and selfish as possible. That would just make everything so much easier.

I'm also quite pathetic

I am not a good person. Ultimately, you will regret having known me...

Logical, rational people

A little bit of everything

Television:

South Park, The Daily Show, House and the majority of the shows on Discovery or The History Channel (I'm a nerd, or at least I'm an aspiring nerd)

Heroes:

The selfish"By pursuing [one's] own interest he frequently promotes that of the society more effectually than when he really intends to promote it." -Adam SmithThis still holds true dispite what Russel Crow says; his character simply described a more specific idea of "[one's] own interest."
