About Me

I'm an 80's B-side. You'll listen to half of me and be like, 'Whaat!? Next." But then you'll wake up 12 days from now, humming my tune, reciting my lyrics and you won't be able to remember where you heard me.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Interesting people! I know, I know, what does that mean!? People with unusual or eclectic hobbies, an irreverent, unconventional, overtly scandalous or otherwise uninhibited sense of humor, a flare for ridiculous, eccentric writing or other forms of expression. People who have urges to visit the highest peaks, unexplored depths and farthest reaches of the planet. People who are not only willing but actively seeking to broaden their horizons and open their minds. Peeps from vastly different walks of life and continents; tell me what monsoon season's like on the subcontinent or how I can improve my didjeridoo playing (learned how at a wild hostel/commune in Interlaken, SW a while ago). Visigoths, ostrogoths, huns, teutons, samurai, celts, vikings, moors, cossacks, tell me about the time you survived for a week in the Siberian steppes by poking a reed into your yak's jugular vein and drinking its blood. And take me to the Caribbean/Mediterranean/South Pacific with you; I need to go like yesterday. And smart people; I am a pretty major nerd and tend to get involved in intellectual speculation. Musicians, artists, athletes, lovers of all things great and small, all are welcome. And for shit's sake, tell me about your dog/cat/iguana (and send me pictures) I love animals.Pet peeves: people who talk about their pet peeves, or think that it's okay to to say the words 'pet peeve' out loud (so I will only write this once and hope that afterwards it is simply implied). A wide assortment of personal weakness: pedantry, pageantry, malaise, jargon, semantic tap-dancing, narcissism, pseudointellectualism, intellectual snobbery, mold-fitting, cliches, bromides, platitudes, uncited sources, high-ranking officials within the administration, pop music, boy bands, shout outs, roof-raising, ooh-ooh, sarcasm as an MO (I am occasionally a sarcastic, sardonic bitch), hypocrisy, inability to express emotion, justifying this inability on the basis that emotional expression is somehow unmanly, narrowmindedness, insensitivity, bigotry, obsession with political correctness, and all the other various and sundry manifestations of mental/psychological/emotional bankruptcy. What I'm saying in a nutshell is let's keep it real, folks :)

My Blog

Am I a complete idiot or is this really hard?

Just go to this site and take the test, you won't be sorry (well you will, but it'll be worth it anyway).  And if you get more than three right, you deserve a medal and a spot in a government thi...
