The Sultan of Sarcasm

I'm not an artist, I'm a fucking work of art.

About Me


I'm a screenwriter who is currently living in Florida. I'm in the midst of trying to sell a script (I have several written)- and I am currently working in a customer service department. I have a very irreverant sense of humor and I love to laugh. What can I say about myself that I can say in a complimentary manner? Hmmmm...I'm a complicated splendor that you will either like or hate. Either way, I'll be completely oblivious.

My Interests

Filmmaking, writing, listening to music, and pursuing my artistic endeavors.

I'd like to meet:

The only woman who deserves my love:However, I'm also open to meet drama free, open-minded artistic types who don't take themselves or the absurdity that is life too seriously.If you think you meet that criteria, let me know and I will be the ultimate judge. Also, please if you want to talk with me or meet me, you must pass my psychiatric test. I've encountered too many psychotic and mentally unstable people on this thing, so in order to meet me, you have to maintain some semblance of normality.

I am also solely addicted to my art. Filmmaking and writing is the one thing that keeps me going everyday. I think it's almost therapy for me. I love interacting with actors and immersing myself in this craft. I am convinced that art is the one medium that can create true change and I devote myself to my work completely. And to me, my art is everything. It provides me with the stability that most people can't offer me. I gravitate towards unique, weird and interesting individuals who have a very perverse sense of humor. If you're typical and stale, I will most likely be bored with you quickly. But, if you're abnormal or awkward, I will be drawn to you.

Books:

Reading Swan Song at the moment. Also, I'm trying to catch up on Rafael Alvarez's fascinating inside look on THE WIRE (the best series on TV now and one of the finest things to ever grace the small or large screens). I'm also losing my manga virginity by reading the first volume of BLAME! by Tsutomu Nihei. I also recommend "Rosa Lee (A Mother and Her Family In Urban America)" by Leon Dash and also "Our America (Life and Death on the South Side of Chicago)" by LeAlan Jones and Lloyd Newman. Both are great pieces of sociological history

Heroes:

THE JOKER/HARLEY QUINN

When it comes to great romantic couples- no one comes close to Harley Quinn and the Joker. They're both insane, reckless and have a great sense of humor. They're perfect for each other. If I can find a girl who would wear the Harley outfit for me, I'd get with her in a second. But the fact that these two have tried to kill each other so many times proves they are in love with each other- because you would only want to kill someone you were hopelessly in love with.
