My Interests

the holy trinity: jean-luc picard+harry potter+buddy christ, caffeine-fueled power-blogging, fantasizing that i accomplish shit, SpongeBob Squarepants, speaking in tongues, hoops, the 'sweet leaf', tormenting the normal, LOTR, reading subtitles, nessie, racquetball, theatre, Han Solo, judging things harshly, eating wheels of cheddar cheese, softball (WITH GLOVES), schadenfreude, Barry's Gold, dramatic storytelling, felis domesticus, volleyball, rolling my 'r's, prank phone calls, hitting the wine, magners (bulmers) or guinness, waiting for the elohim to pick me up, reading fine literature, responding to mail order bride spam, watching flix, inventing religions, writing and dancing.

Which Star Wars Jedi/Sith are you?
Obi-Wan Kenobi
You’ve managed to train both a great evil and a greater good, not to mention whipping the ass of the coolest looking Sith in the series. However, you do have a few weaknesses, like Count Dooku and a douche bag of a Padawan. Other than that, you are the epitome of class. The accent, the outfit, and your care for those around you is highly admirable. Arguably, you are the best Jedi that ever lived, having owned Maul, Anakin and Grievous, a total of seven lightsabres among the three.
