Things That You May Not Know About Me

Posted in Whatever This Is by fred1979 on April 27, 2008

This list was inspired by Luthor and FuzzyTypewriter.

Things that you may not know about me:

  • I’m married. I have two kids.
  • My birthday is May 19th and I share it with Ho Chi Minh, Pol Pot, Malcolm X, Pete Townshend, and Nora Ephron. This year, I will be 29.
  • I have no idea what I’d like to do with my life. I realize that I should decide soon as I’m becoming an old dude.
  • I develop websites. For an example of what a website is … you’re on one.
  • I have really low self-esteem. I survive this by pretending that I have absurdly high self-esteem. I don’t think it’s working.
  • I live in upstate New York.
  • If I could live anywhere, it’d be New York City. I’d least like to live in Kansas or Nebraska.
  • My favorite color is black. I’m told it’s not actually a color though … so I guess I don’t have one.
  • Big fan of Nirvana, Ani DiFranco, and early (pre-No Code) Pearl Jam.
  • I also love The Bloodhound Gang, though most of me wishes that I didn’t.
  • Sometimes I wish that I were a pimp.
  • I’m obsessed with pop culture. I can’t help it. I am, of course, suitably ashamed of it.
  • I actually pay attention to who the writers and director of a movie are. I’m hoping to stave off the future desire to track cinematographers.
  • I don’t like animals, but I feel bad for them. I’ve gone through a few vegetarian periods in my life and I would really like to kick Michael Vick in the nuts.
  • I don’t sleep enough.
  • I have not masturbated in public … yet.
  • My favorite writer is Hemingway.
  • I’m going to quit smoking … someday.
  • I think this list sucks. My apologies.

    I thought the Michael Vick comment was ironic since you killed my dog.
