In the year 1984, Paul Hewson aka Bono wrote a song that contained the following line: "One man come in the name of love". Four years later, that prophecy was fulfilled when I popped out of my mother's uterus.
Ok, ok, so that sounded a tad bit pretentious. That's because I have a bit of an ego, but not so much that it makes me as narcissistic as Kanye West. In fact, it's pretty much what keeps me from going insane, and if you feed it, I'll pretty much love you forever. Or at least until I die, since, due to love being a physiological function of the brain, it cannot last forever. So, with that being said, here is pretty much all you'll ever need to know if you ever have the privilege of becoming at least somewhat acquainted with me:
1. I believe in a Socialist utopia (and I feel safe saying that because Joseph McCarthy's dead)
2. I'm highly anti-materialistic/anti-consumerist (which, if you think about it, is totally ironic, considering I'm using a Rupert Murdoch owned entity to espress that view)
3. I'm extremely impressed by/attracted to intelligence
4. I have obsessive-compulsive tendencies. Everything has to be in order.
5. I place much stock in semantics. I overanalyze everything and tend to respond to questions with "Define [insert word here]"
6. I hope to one day be a Neuroscientist
7. I'm scared of bees like Stephen Colbert is scared of bears
8. The following are my favorite authors: Chuck Palahniuk, Ray Bradbury, Kurt Vonnegut, Franz Kafka, Richard Dawkins, and Malcolm Gladwell
9. I'm a total food Fascist and a grammar Nazi
I'd put some more, but you can read it in my memoirs after I radically change the social/scientific landscape with a couple of my friends.
Oh, and I normally NEVER advertise this, but since Philip Brooks is one of my FAVORITE wrestlers:
