Okay, I’m opening it up: Anybody have any questions that they’d like to ask to get a better idea of who I am? I don’t know. Do you even care who I am, or are my posts so thoroughly engaging and entertaining that it wouldn’t matter if I were a robot (mmmmm… robot)?

I don’t know anything about you! How old are you? Are you in a relationship? What do you do for work?

I don’t have any further questions for you. I just thought it was cool that I’ve never broken a bone either and also prefer to sit with my back to the wall in a restaurant (or any room people might be frequently coming entering and exiting). Go torso!

I am a man of mystery, it’s true.
I’m 28 years old.
I am in a relationship.
Work? Well, mostly, I seem to surf around progressive and feminist blogs and look for information to consume. ;P
As far as my job goes: basically, I do system work for a division of the world’s largest employer. I make web applications to help make business processes more efficient and to reduce user mistakes. It’s mostly simple web programming (really simple) and database manipulation.
It’s… interesting. I graduated college with degrees in philosophy and literature, so I’m sort of out of my element. It pays the bills, though, which is important right now.

mrb, i am proud to say that strangely enough, i knew every one of those ‘random facts i may not know.’ HOWEVER, even more strangely: i’d bet if i posted a similar list, you probably wouldn’t know the things about me. *sigh* and that makes me an asshole. let’s have a movie night.

I’m impressed- I thought almost nobody knew 6 or 7.
Movie night sounds brilliant.
