100 Things you might not have known about me...
I read http://www.mizdos.com/100things.htm and liked the idea, so I took it up. Enjoy.
- I'll admit it. I don't get the fascination with Wil Wheaton.
- I'm a geek.
- I'm a geek that doesn't like Star Trek, Star Wars, the Empire Strikes back, Voyager or any other of those movies.
- I did like the movie Stargate though. Can't bring myself enough interest to watch the series.
- I don't like reality television.
- I really like watching Good Eats.
- I want to live by water. I find rivers, lakes and the ocean relaxing.
- Sometimes I want to completely change my current life.
- People who say "I'll call you right back" and then don't - you drive me crazy. Just tell me you will call me back in three weeks, and I will be okay with that.
- I hate cellphones that have ringtones. I want a phone to sound like a phone, that is all.
- I hate when people "Reply to all" when the sender asks to reply to them only.
- I love Oatmeal Raisin cookies
- During the months of September and October I have a severe addiction to Candy Corn.
- I also have the same kind of addiction to Jellybeans in April.
- I like to live anonymously, but I don't like to be ignored.
- I don't enjoy bieng the center of attention.
- I work best when I'm deeply interested in the subject.
- I had forgotten how much fun it is for me to get out on my bike and just ride.
- I occaisonally like getting a reaction out of people.
- I have a hard time holding grudges.
- I don't think people take me seriously when I get angry.
- I can't stand people who are loud on the phone in the presence of others.
- If all jobs paid the same, I'd be a full-time photographer.
- Yes, I am sarcastic, because the world is often full of shit.
- I'd like it if people were just honest with one another. Not that kind of honest like you expect. Brutally honest. I could deal with that. It would cut through a lot of crap, wouldn't it?
- I have a hard time saying "no" to people. I think I have a harder time saying "yes" to myself.
- I'm my own worst critic, no matter what you say. Unless, of course, you are bieng an overbearing SOB.
- I believe in karma. You do good things, it comes back to you. If you are a mean bastard, that'll come back to you too. Maybe it's just I don't spend a lot of time plotting revenge. I let the Universe take care of you.
- I'm not overly religious. I try to treat people right (in spite of themselves) and do the right thing (though most times it sucks) and hope that I'll get what's right for me later on.
- I consider myself a frustrated Genius. If I could get out of my own way, I'd do some beautiful stuff.
- I've changed my mind about vi. It doesn't suck. But Emacs is far more superior.
- Just because you stage a talent show and have millions of clueless idiots vote on it doesn't make it talent that I will buy. American Idol sucks, and you can't fool me.
- No, I don't find all children fascinating. If I did, I would have had some by now. Stop asking. I'll do that when I'm damn good and ready.
- Calvin and Hobbes, The Far Side and Outland are my favorite discontinued comics.
