Craziest Thing I've Ever Done:
I learned how to manufacture Napalm when I was 10 years old.
Oh and I did have to spend some time in a mental institution. That was a fun summer camp.
If I Could Be Anywhere Right Now:
By the lake, watching the sunset and listening to music.
Hobbies:
I love podcasting, it's my breathe of air. I also love watching TV shows and movies, and reading novels and comic books, and listening to stand up ; all of which I talk about on my podcast.
I love to write as well, and I'm lucky that I've been paid to do so, and going on hikes is always a pleasure around where I live. Or just sitting by the lake listening to music, that's nice as well. "I find myself watching a lot of sunsets", to quote Clark Kent (not shitting you, it's really a Clark Kent quote)
Talents:
I'm quite good at writing. I have written some essays / columns about TV Shows and about myself for some books, magazines and websites. I also have written a novel in the past, way way back, but nothing ever got out of it. I was 17, to be fair.
Perfect Mate:
A guy who loves movies, TV shows, stand up, comic books, and talking about them for hours. A creative guy whose creativity will fuel on my own.
Perfect Date:
I don't know. Does watching a movie in bed counts as a date ? I'm European, I have no idea what Americans see as a date. We don't date, we hookup and then sometimes decide to see the person again.
Or the first date from True Romance. Yeah, I know, it's kind of twisted. But ending up hooking up in a comic book shop is the hottest possible ending for a first date.
Turn Ons/Offs:
Turn ons... Many. A guy who can make me laugh, Zip up hoodies / hoodies (yep). A guy who's talented and smart. A guy wearing a nice perfume.
Turn offs... Sexism can turn me off quite easily, as well as a lack of chemistry.
