About Me

My name is Mike Rotch. You probably already know that, though. And if not, don't bother adding me. I only add people I know. 'Know' usually meaning I've met you somewhere before, or we're friends. I don't add bands. If I've never heard of you/any of your music before, I don't care to start now. Any bands I have added, I'm fine with.
Anyway, I'm a 26 year old fat kid with sideburns. I rant alot. People seem to like it when I flip out. I doodle. I like all genres of music - emphasis is on anything metal, punk, or just plain awesome. If it sounds good/is catchy, I'm all for it. I love horror movies. The gorier, the better. Zombies ripping people apart make me VERY happy. I don't care about 'social commentary' or anything like that. Just give me blood, guts, and the occasional boobie. Yeah, I said 'boobie.' I am the snuggle pimp. The mack-daddy of the cuddle. I love road trips. Leatherface's chainsaw wielding happy dance makes me laugh. I am a youtube addict. Girls like my voice, for some reason.
Other than that, I (attempt to) sing in a band. We're awful for the sake of being awful. EMATN - from bad, to worse. Holdin' strong since the summer of '05!
-------
I promote wrestling shows under the "Inter Species Wrestling" banner. It's allowed me to meet some of the coolest people, and travel to some great places. It has also allowed me to charge people admission to see my retarded thoughts come to life in a wrestling ring.
Check us out on myspace at myspace.com/interspecieswrestling!We rocked the Vans Warped Tour in '06! Holla!
I also provide live commentary at all International Wrestling Syndicate shows. You can hear my aforementioned 'voice that makes the ladies moist' on their official dvd releases, available from Smart Mark Video, and Fortune Video. I hate my voice - but hey - whatever floats your boat. The IWS' website is located at syndicatewrestling.com . Check them out.
Locally, I also have commentary duties at Rage Wrestling . Great family friendly wrestling.

**Despite anything you have read on here, I am actually a good/nice person. I respect anyone, as long as they respect me. That's all there is to it, really.**

My Interests

I love music, horror flicks, aviator glasses, Elvis shades, Dickies hoodies/work shirts, basketball shorts, Spongebob Squarepants, pro wrestling, girls, DVDs, the shocker (not using it, just flashing it), Happy Tree Friends, Curious George, indy wrestling, lucha libre, puroresu, wristbands, black socks, drawing, traveling, meeting new people, partying, having a good time, mixed martial arts, and sometimes video games (Mario Frikkin' Party).
I love the broads, Metalocalypse, and Donkey Kong.

I'd like to meet:

How about I tell you who I DON'T want to meet? Makes everything alot easier.
-If you're an uptight person, stay home. Nobody wants to meet you. At all.
-People who have an opinion on everything - especially if it's unfounded - can stay home too. Invest in a roll of duct tape, and wrap it around your entire face.
-Those "my issues, which are nothing big at all, are going to kill us ALL if not resolved soon" people.
-Guys who wear super tight pants. I don't know why this is in style. Where do you keep your balls in pants like that?
--------
I don't know if there's any one person I'd like to meet. I have alot of good friends, so I dunno. If you've got a good personality, and don't take everything too seriously - we're going to get along. I'm a nice guy. Trust me.
Here is a list of people I'd love to hang out with.

Below is my top 24. AKA, my "top take up half my page." There's not enough room for everyone I like, though - so here's the all-star team. People who belong on top for life:
This is the only person who I hold above you all.

I obviously like you if you're on my list, so if you're not on here - don't take it personal. It's not really a ranking. There just isn't enough room for everyone. Right now, the 'top list' is composed of those who I like to hang with/talk to most.

Music:

I love the (OG) Misfits, The Distillers, and Walls of Jericho. I kill my ears listening to them, among many others. Mainly them, though.

I love my band. I'm open minded when it comes to this subject, though. If music sounds good, or is funny - I'll listen to it.

P.S. - Fuck Kurt Cobain.
