About Me

" When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to ABBA songs. But since I've met you and moved to Sydney, I haven't listened to one Abba song. That's because my life is as good as an Abba song. It's as good as Dancing Queen. " Muriel's Wedding (1994)

My Interests

Tom cruise's homosexuality, hair removal techniques, musicals, tragic bitches, porn aesthetics, the destruction created by monotheistic religions, pop culture, persian mothers, fairy tales, bizarre social implications of 80s sitcoms, gender confusion, christian boys who are obsessed with musicals, politics, Amanda Lepore, humping random objects, drug addiction, America
