I am here for Friends

About Me

*My real name is Matt.*I consider myself a Christian. However, I am NOT homophobic, condescending, ignorant, sexist, or dogmatic.Hopefully most people would consider me a nice fellow.*I may be shy, a little timid (anti-social), and maybe a little cold on the outside, but once you get to know me, I can be rambunctious and crazy, but also caring and serious at times.*I'm a romantic, loving guy, but I've had very few opportunities to prove this to the ladies.*Speaking and learning French gives me a pleasure I can't describe to most Americans.*I'm in love with punk rock, black metal, and electronic/synth pop music*Europe fascinates me wildly.*I like to puff (not smoke, puff) pipe tobacco and luxury cigarettes.*I like to drink delicious beer and delectable mixed drinks. I do my best to do it in moderation, but I'm still discovering my limits, and it's a process that has its errors.*I'm not too happy that I come from the same city as Bright Eyes and Saddle Creek Records, or the influence they have on the venues and the plague of indie-rockers/bands they attract. In response, I do my best to support the Punk and extreme metal scenes here.*My AIM is Truncheon 84*Xanga: www.xanga.com/dinghaasovich*Have a nice day.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

These guys, so I can get my metal fix!!!I wouldn't mind meeting anybody who has similar interests. James the super fan (where are you?)

I'm still a rat in a cage Stuck in a prison of nostalgia and good times Keeping warm by an anger buring Brewing up a batch of discontentment. I've sewn the seeds, but nothing seems to have been reaped...
