I constantly flip through radio stations. I like touching plants as I walk by them. I play Dungeons & Dragons. I hope I can leave well enough alone. Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good.

OK I hate this part. I'm a writer, I spend too much time in my own world. I don't like yuppies and figure if I ever truly snap I might have to raid an abercrombie and fitch and commence to beating any yuppie I catch with a frozen wiffle ball bat. Or I will just firehose clean as many jiffy toe hippies I can find. I'm mostly a loner I don't have too many true friends and I'm content on that. - Jon Stout

i like things that make me cry, laugh, shake my head in disbeleif, draw forth copious amounts of emotions out of my hard shelled exterior. I also enjoy pushing myself past my limits. Finding out what makes me tick and what am I capable of. The greatest disservice one can do to onself is say " I don't think I can". In the great words of whomever 'pain is temporary, greatness is forever'. I prefer small towns to big cities and mountains to plains. - Ian Carnel
I'm single, straight, monogamous, and avail. I can be a PitA, and I am a music nut, and a tech geek. I have way too many hobbies and too little time for any of them; I have no sense of shame really, so I'll answer any questions from G-rated to XXX, and I love PDAs. - Jamie Saxton

This sentence is made of lead (and a sentence made of lead gives a reader an entirely different sensation from one made of magnesium). This sentence is made of yak wool. This sentence is made of sunlight and plums. This sentence is made of ice. This sentence is made from the blood of the poet. This sentence was made in Japan. This sentence glows in the dark. This sentence was born with a caul. - Jim

Shyly artistic desert native. I like long walks through the woods at night in the rain, rats and spiders, and I enjoy eating in...bed. - Ben
If you're going to judge me based on the fact that I'm 19, go away now. I'm spiritual, but not religious. Nice, but not weak. Artistic but not insane. And affectionate, but not, I hope, creepy. I love music, my friends, and books, in that order. Those are the three most important things in the world to me, and without any of them I would find it hard to get by. I try to live the way I ought, and fuck the haters. - Keith Flannery

I am a single hardworking young man. Just got out of a relationship that ended like all the rest. The girls always leave me because there is another guy who has more of what they want. This usually consists of them not having a job or a future. I enjoy movies, music, comics, manga, Anime, Videogames, music, and Reading. I listen to music while doing all these things if i can. In the case of movies I listen to the music in the movie. - Doug Schmidek

.x.Yeah, I guess I'm an angry hater type person, I don't apologize. Believe me though, I give everyone a chance, I'm probably one of the most understanding people you will ever meet, and it's not people that I hate, really it's concepts. I have reason behind all my behavior. - Rick Young
