About Me

I like sarcasm, sunshine, thunder and lightning, loud music, and a few other things. I'm the modern day viking! Except I don't rape and pillage(generally...). I obviously know everything. I am way too fucking cynical. I like Cynic. I'm a spelling/grammar/punctuation Nazi, even though I'm really not that good at any. I am a hypocrite on many and most levels. I also drink too much. But there ya go.

I like computer-y stuff. I have an Acer Aspire 5630, which is quite sexy, and runs Ubuntu/Slackware. I also have a desktop which is old but runs Slackware 12.0 with Fluxbox excellently, and I use as a temporary server for some of the shite I do. Opera is the best browser. I use AfterStep and/or Fluxbox to manage my windows ... but Gnome>KDE :P. I also like art and shit, mostly fantasy, surreal, fantastic, psychedelic, and visionary stuff. Shit by Giger, Hieronymus Bosch, Salvador Dali, William Blake and the like appeals to me.

So now, you probably know everything about me. Whatever you've heard, probably isn't true.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Most of the people I've met through IRC/rock room/HMS/other forums and IMers. One or two people who I know, who I'd like to meet *now*. They probs know who they are. Other than that, you.

Could our life be a computer simulation?

Read an interesting article in the New York Times(yes, I read that... ) that our lives- and Universe- could, in fact, be controlled by some dude in another Universe. Scary thought, huh? It's similar t...

My view on killing, by and in MEDCs

This will probably be controversial. But fuck political correctness. That went down with the Trade Center. Before I get all in depth in the subject, I also want to say that all the acts of killing, su...
