About Me


lila is my favorite potato.
i like things to be simple and happy.
i like edumacation, drinking coffee, not having money, making fun of the president, beards, daaaaaang, old books, bikes, the 90's, wearing dresses, being inappropriate, scaring children, bike rides, and dirty stinkin liberal hippies.
i want to meet someone who is equally as bad at sports as i am. i would also like to meet someone who recognizes how grammatically awkward the previous sentence is.
at the moment, i am enjoying being blatantly, hypocritically, annoyingly seventeen years old. in may, i will be blatantly, hypocritically, annoyingly eighteen years old.
i also really enjoy not understanding math homework.
i'm a nerd:
xenotwuz: Milton, and therefore God, would disagree.
xenotwuz: And so would Voltaire.
xenotwuz: YOU'VE DISGRACED VOLTAIRE!
darriendarrien: voltaire would agree
darriendarrien: he's a cool guy
darriendarrien: milton is an old fart
darriendarrien: who has nothing better to do than to justify the ways of god to men
xenotwuz: Hahah. And Voltaire has nothing better to do than make obvious statements about human nature in a "snarky", "intelligent" way.
darriendarrien: maybe he and that poet could go look at rainbows together
xenotwuz: Hahahahah. Fuuuuck you!
xenotwuz: Milton would hate that shit.
darriendarrien: milton would love that shit
darriendarrien: old fart
xenotwuz: I'd like to see some in-depth research proving that point...
darriendarrien: hah
xenotwuz: There's probably a secret code in Paradise Lost that says "Wordsworth is a ho, and can't write poetry for shit".
darriendarrien: you can only read milton if you're drunk, i think.
xenotwuz: Are you calling me a boozer?
darriendarrien: a little bit, yea.
xenotwuz: Beer's for pussies.
darriendarrien: what do you drink to read then, appletinis?
xenotwuz: Hahahah. No, that would go better with Voltaire. Weak and insubstantial.
darriendarrien: more like subtle and delicious.
xenotwuz: And I'm the boozer?
xenotwuz: Here you are, extolling the virtues of... appletinis. Lame.
darriendarrien: milton goes better with $4-for-a-24-pack horse piss beer
