I don't roll on Shabbas

About Me


I play air guitar in front of the mirror often. And many of those times it is in less than pants. I hate stepping in water whilst wearing socks. I'm OCD about all the wrong things. I'm in denial about my social anxiety. I really like ice cream. I have never shot a gun, but want to. I have third-degree Indian burn. I have a pet hedgehog who is mean. I don't believe in unicorns or God. I think your favorite band sucks. No, really, I'm straight.

I'd like to meet:


You must be duophonic, ham and jazz flavored, a prodigious wielder of the Dewey Decimal System, a democrat, able to calm jittery squirrels, a listener of Talking Heads, an agnostic or atheist, and a frequent user of the word 'nougat'. Owning a chimpanzee who wears diapers and likes to hug is a serious plus. Especially if his name is Mr. Chips. Oh, and you don't constantly correct people when they refer to it as a monkey and not an ape.
