People who can show me something new.Tell me something I don't already know. Tell me about a band I should check out or a book I should read, a movie I need to see, a bar with great burgers. I like meeting people who can laugh at themselves. People who can stand how much I talk and can tell me when to shut up.Someone I can laugh with or at. Someone I can tell a dirty joke.Someone who can tell me a dirty joke and can also tell me how to convert farenheit to celcius and then to kelvin because I'm a nerd. Someone who tell me the name of that guy in that movie we saw when we were stoned.Someone who can look me right in the eye and laugh and then TELL ME that there's a huge bugger hanging out of my nose actually flapping in the breeze of my breath. Be honest. Be crude. Be ugly. Be smelly. Be awkward. Be nerdy. Be sure to check your fucking sensitivity at the door.
