About Me

I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off. .

My Interests

I find the majority of things interesting, therefore I'll list the things I dont find interesting: writing/reading essays, lectures, Human Resource Management, cricket, bird's eye potato waffles (although they are waffley versatile) and drawing up a bibliography of references.
