About Me

I'm a grad student on self-imposed sequester writing the dissertation I have been researching for the last two years. Save me from total isolation. I teach at a local college as an adjunct wage slave. I know many amusing anecdotes. I have a knack for arcane and esoteric knowledge. Ask me about giant squids, quantum physics, or the Illuminati. I often find myself lost in thought. These days, I'm reading a lot of philosophy. Some of it for personal reasons, some of it school-related. But, I read too much and about too many things. I listen to a lot of music. I don't go to as many movies or shows as I'd like. im: erebus216
I AM 86% PUNK ROCK! I am PUNK AS FUCK! The model punk. I care not for anything. I kick ass, but probably smell really bad. Take the PUNK ROCK test at Fuali.com

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

dadaists, low-lifes, buskers, flaneurs, hackers, postmodernists, nerds, snake charmers, solopsists, vampires, carnies, zeppelin pilots, gypsies, time lords, circus freaks, post-structuralists, poets, beats, futurists, hobos, hicks, anarchists, neat-freaks, buddhists, perverts, hippies, television evangelists, situationalists, diviners, people who have public access tv shows, screenwriters, human beat boxers, magician's assistants, trekkies, idealists, frotteurists, metalheads, people who avoid sugar, and those who have worse OCDs than me. Oh, and someone who can help me figure out phenomenology and existentialism.

I got to see Neurosis and Jarboe (ex-Swans) at North Six last night. They rocked. I'm always impressed with the band's intensity and last night didn't disappoint. I've been trying to figure out a w...

Applying for academic jobs...

So, I'm in that crucial stage of the PhD program where I'm actually close enough to finishing to be on the job market.  I applied for about 12 jobs so far.  I've heard back from two.  O...

I'm depressed about the State of the Union speech

W gave tonight. His smugness really came through. He looked right at the cameras and the audience with an "I'm fucking you all over and you're all buying" face. It's sad to think no one will really...
