I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a geek. I love video games, anime, British comedy, laughing at stupid jokes, and spending time online.
I'm picky. I only do things that fit my preferences usually, or I won't bother at all. I need a job I'm passionate about. I don't like to date people who are less than what I'm looking for. I don't have a lot of value for "acquaintances" but I have enormous respect for friends.
I'm innovative. I like wrapping my head around complex problems and figuring out a new way to do something, or finding an off-the-wall solution. The straight and narrow is easy and boring...building a better mousetrap is much more fun. Classic ENTP, for those who know what that is.
I'm laid-back. I like sitting around my house at night and playing games or watching anime. I prefer to go out to a bar with a few friends than a packed club full of morons. I really enjoy sleeping in and being lazy on weekends.
I'm a city-boy. I love going to downtown Seattle and having a night out, going to a concert, or going to a local dive bar. I hate the outdoors, I don't camp, fish, hike, or anything like that. I hear there's bears outside.
I'm loyal. I carefully choose who my friends are and keep it to a small group of people, but there's nothing I wouldn't do for a friend. I think worthwhile people are indespensable and are things to be invested into, while other people are just NPCs.
I'm a cynic. I don't have patience for idiots or people that think it's cool to be a dumbass. I can't stand posers or people that try too hard to impress others. I feel that being a tool is a horrible trait and that being a rebel without the ability to truely think critically makes you a tool as well. I also think that there are people who are smart enough to think outside the box, and I'm interested in talking to them.
I'm hopelessly addicted to caffeine. Starbucks is my master now.
In short, if your profile has the random popular quote of the week on it or you talk in ebonics when you've lived in the suburbs your whole life, please don't bother messaging me. Please send me a message before you send a friend request.
Wakka wakka wakka *Fruit*

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Part of this balanced breakfast.
Real people, both guys and girls. Anyone with something interesting to say...anyone who's down-to-earth and doesn't waste their time with bullshit.
