Is there anything more odious than self-introduction? When I finished Univ., I thought I’d also be done with the humiliating process of standing up
in front of a group of strangers, casting around for something “interesting” to say about myself and settling on inane (and slightly disturbing)
things like, “I was born with an extra tooth and my brother was born missing one.” (True story btw).
But I guess it wouldn’t be right to just jump in here and start posting without at least saying hello and giving you some kind of idea of who or
what I am. Feel free to completely skip this and just get back to reading posts about famous people (who never have to do self-introductions because
they’re so famous). That’s what you’re here for, right?
Since I have to do this, I used the random word generator at watchout4snakes.com to get a list of words I could weave into a short (and very
convoluted) self-introduction. In fact, my friend suggested that my entire self-introduction should consist of, “I talk too much, but I’m
handsome, so it’s cool. Also, I have a nice rack. …please don’t hate me.”
I live in [censored], a once quiet city that has grown at a rate inversely proportional to the quality of the local music scene. I’m a big nerd and
like to read things like dictionary. I make sure not to spend too much of my life in front of the computer, so that neither my conversation skills nor
my personality become clotted by too much exposure to monitor glare and not enough sunlight. I like to draw. I like the color blue. I'm interested in
but not limited to subjects involving global politics, disinfo. & conspiracies.
I’m glad about becoming your new member for more opinion & info shoved through a filter of sarcasm and acerbic wit. I promise to do my best to
provide you with your fix, and promise not to preimbibe too much “writing juice” so you won’t have to wade through a string of posts that make
sense.
It’s a pleasure to meet you.
