- About Me:
- Scones; they are marvelous.
I suppose the simplest way to describe myself would be as a cynical, misanthropic narcissist.
I would like pursue a career in the film industry, and I would also like to venture into voice-over work, as that has always intrigued me... but alas, those are simply dreams that shan't be realized.
I love to debate. Anything from politics, to religion, to social matters, to film. You name it, I'll argue with you about it (though I very rarely have an idea of what I'm talking about).
I could never list all of my favorite movies... but you can find a short list in my Movies section. That list should give you a general idea of my taste.
I'm pretentious... and I accept that fact...
I like using ellipses... you should probably get used to that...
I'm quite Liberal... and if you watch Fox News, you'll know that means I need aborted fetuses for sustenance... they are rather om nom nom...
H. L. Mencken is the shit... make sure you remember that.
I'm atheist.
I'm no hardcore gamer... but I do play occasionally... mostly Pokemon, Sonic, and Mario... very rarely anything else...
As alluded to before, I am typically referred to as a 'cynic.' That is a correct description, but you must remember 'cynic' and 'right' are usually synonyms.

After listing my favorite films of the decade, I began cutting down my favorite video games of the decade. Unlike many who will make a similar list, I am not a hardcore gamer by any stretch of the imagination. I'm that happy medium in between comp...
Though there is still bit over a month to go in this decade, I've decided to compile a list of my 15 favorite films from 2000 - 2009 (If, by happenstance, another film comes along in the next month that blows me away, I may edit the list).
