Hi, I'm Paul; a 21 year old pipe smoking cravat wearing chap with a passion for music, films and gaming. I'm a bit socially awkward, but my friends tell me I'm a nice (if strange) person to be around once you get to know me. Then again they would say that. I've not had anything approaching a serious relationship before, but I'm hoping to change that.
I'm a university drop-out (studied Engineering, got bored, switched to Film & TV before Student Finance screwed me over) and consider myself to be quite cultured with a fair pinch of quirky sprinkled in. I spend most of my time gaming, watching films, reading books, writing, drawing and (at the moment) searching for a job.
Very laid back and easy going. My interests are varied and consuming. Really serious about finding someone to spend time with who likes to thing outside of reality but is down to earth at the same time. One of my favorite things to do is simply look at the night sky, it's be great if she enjoyed the same.
Friendship, a shared sense of humor and curiosity. Secret shared smiles. Crossword puzzles on a rainy morning. Eating with our fingers and laughing. All good things in time.
I read too much King Arthur as a kid and now I've got a chivalry complex. I've tried dousing it in curiosity and wry, silly observations, but the boyscout always tends to come out.
I like music, but don't have a soundtrack to my life. I listen more to NPR (RadioLab, This American Life, Wait Wait, Car Talk, The Big Broadcast) and audiobooks. Say Anything is still one of the best romances ever written. I wanted to be Lloyd Dobler when I grew up. Or a Ghostbuster.
I've found myself trying lots of things: climbing, biking, running, swimming, camping, ice-climbing, scuba diving... still waiting for that skydiving invite... "Yes" is usually the first answer, followed by "Wait... what did I just say yes to?"
I seem to be attracted to quirky or eclectic or introspective. Definitely to creative. Layers, too, the best stories have unexpected turns and beautiful surprises. Maybe shy, maybe just cautious to start, or even mysterious, but then the moment happens and there's a little magic... and that secret shared smile.
Three drops of crazy doesn't hurt either.
Some of my pictures are from past adventures in past years. My "primary photo" is from Christmas 2010.
My name is Sam, and I'm currently a freshman in college studying Graphic Design. Please, if you are highly argumentative, don't listen, and aren't open to other people's opinions, don't expect me to have a whole lot of respect for you.
I am a fairly normal guy who likes science and nerdy stuff. I would rather read a book than watch a movie, but books are not a substitute. Video games are awesome, but most video games aren't. Conversations that are silly are always fun, but so are serious ones as well. I am an older college student, but I have more younger friends than I do older, although I don't have a preference. Some questions I ask myself are, why are Asians so hot? Why are Leela and Amy so hot? What would life look like without mass extinctions? Why am I asking myself these questions? And other weird thoughts about science, sci-fi and fantasy. I really enjoy hanging out with some good conversation and company. With all this in mind I will say that I am not really interested in one area of Geekdom, unless that is an area.
Hi,
I'm new to the Seattle scene, though I've wanted to move here for years. I attended my first PAX this year and just finally got out here in October. I'm still floating around looking for cool places to hang out or visit.
I'm a professional chef, gamer, and tech enthusiast. I've spent the last 9 years concentrating on my career and have sadly fallen behind on current programming, anime, and gaming scene. I'm hoping to catch up a bit out here.
I can cook a 5-course meal while GM-ing a Pathfinder game, I'm a huge Final Fantasy addict (my favorites are 8 and Tactics. I think 7 lacks a lot; feel free to debate me), I cut my teeth on the original Dragon Quest, and I had Transformers before they were transformers. I collect the new classics versions as well. I can't live without my android phone and I'm planning on getting an ASUS slider soon.
