About Me

I am the top hat in monopoly. My favorite color is royal purple; it's majestic. I am a music snob. I love falling in love with music that's never been heard by popular ears before, only to watch it pop onto shelves, through radio stations and into cd players long months after. People come to me with music that nobody has ever known before because they're confident I've heard it before (even if I haven't). I love writing and being inspired. My best writing is done when I'm in a temporarily depressed state, it is a great outlet. I draw, but not very well, although it is another passion of mine. I will eventually create a webcomic. Or something along those lines. Maybe I'll release two-three drawings per week, that way it will give me ample time for fresh ideas. I need to get a drawing book and shading pencils. I will do that soon. I love going to garage sales for all the wonderful treasures you can find. Vinyl that's never been seen before, CDs that are dirt cheap, skateboards from the 70s, 80s and 90s, laminated prints, toys, cassettes, playing cards (I'm still looking to buy Kem cards). I love playing cards, especially spades. However, if you play me in spades when I'm tired, I'll make stupid mistakes. If I'm fully awake though and have a partner who knows what he/she is doing, consider yourself toast. If you ever want to play on yahoo, send me a message. I am a nerd, yes. I like comics (JTHM, Squee, X-Men, What-If?, The Maxx, etc etc etc) and used to collect them quite a bit. Same thing for cards. I have a good collection of some incredibly random cards (Alf, Garbage Pale Kids, TMNT). And when I say TMNT, I have a whole slew of their action figures (X-Men too). I like playing pool, I love going bowling and mini-putting. I've just revealed way too many secrets about myself, but I suppose that it's a good screening process, right? Oh, and to add a tad more, I'm vegetarian (2 yrs-ish), don't smoke, and don't drink (there's one thing I drink, and I'll have one once every few months). I'm no exception, just a breaker of rules.Home | Browse | Search | Invite | Film | Mail | Blog | Favorites | Forum | Groups | Events | Videos | Music | Comedy | Classifieds

My Interests

Music, Writing, Photography: My Photos , Drawing, Skateboarding, Comics, Card games (I know...a lot), Marbles, Rocks, Ze Internet, Social Philosophy, and especially Board Games! I'm a scrabble addict. I will challenge anyone, anywhere, anytime!

I'd like to meet:

Montrealers...I hate people that live far away...especially if I could fall in love with you.
If you want to add me as a friend, send me a message and tell me why. If you're not from Montreal, but think we'd get along, that's cool. Oh, and if you're on my list for awhile (and I don't know you personally) and I happen to delete you, and you actually realize that I've deleted you and want me back, send me a message and keep closer ties with me! Sheesh.
If you're a band, and you sound like John Mayer or have 3000+ friends and don't plan on messaging me, don't expect me to add you or even send you a message. And if you do sound like John Mayer and you do message me...I'm still probably not going to add you. To be perfectly honest, I'll only add you if your music is quite good in my eyes...And don't think that because you sound exactly like one of the groups on my gigantic list that I'll like you too...I really should tidy that list up.
It's hard to be friends when someone likes a lot of bands that I despise...so if you like a lot of music that I will mock you incessantly for and you still want to be my friend, be sure of yourself about it and defend your case. If you ask to be my friend, I go to your profile, skim through it, and usually am not very impressed (Yes, I'm sure you spent hours working on it), so really, don't just tell me I seem like a cool guy or that I have a nice profile myself. Give me something worth something...that's the only way you'll ever get something worth anything back.
I'm an asshole, first and foremost. A really big asshole who will disrespect you at every turn and make you feel like trash because of my own insecurities. I work out constantly to remind myself that I'm a man and that muscles make me an even bigger one. I watch the discovery channel, but only to see the lions eat gazelles because I think it's funny. I pick on people smaller than me for just such a reason. I scratch a line off on my bedpost every time I fuck another chick. I buy women lots of gifts in hopes of them not realizing what a coward I am internally. I read at a sixth grade level and write at a fourth grade level. I make a lot of mistakes in my life but will never admit any of them to anyone. I don't have a soft side; I'm all man. If this appeals to you, send me a message and tell me how 'hot' I am. Every compliment I get adds to my fake sense of self-worth because that's how shallow I am.
