I'd like to meet:

I have a feeling we might understand one another:

anyone, really. wait, i take that back. depends on the day, depends on my mood. and no, i'm not trying to sound lofty here. one day i'll blindly approve anyone who requests me while another day i'll pretend to have guidelines. i can say that i generally prefer to correspond with individuals that i have at best similar, at worst remote, interests with - you know who you are. just please don't have one of those pages that takes forever to load and is so confusing to navigate that i won't ever feel like leaving you a comment. haven't you ever heard that less IS more?
