I'm a cocky, slightly sociopathic, highly inteligent (I have certification!) computer geek of a cat-loving cynical, pessimistic, cat loving, fault-seeking ladies'-man-like generalistic con man. Got all that? I've had a friend once say that I'm also slightly narcissistic, but I think he was just in a mood. To me, leisure reading consist of books like Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, Der Fuerher, War and Peace (Hell yeah!), The Republic of Plato, Nineteen-Eighty-Four, Marx--Engels--Marxism, Shakespearian works, and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. That sort of thing. Don't get me wrong, I do read more simple things, like. . . nothing comes to mind, but I do. Contrary to linguistic forensics, I don't write the way I talk. Much to the dismay of my friends and colleagues, I talk like a university English professor, ergo the minor note of frustration a number of my writings are occasionally perceived to contain. I usually dumb down my talkings, though. I particularly enjoy subjects of inquiry such as history, mathematics, all things computer, and law. I'm actually seeing about going to law school, so. . . I have an exceptional memory, thanks to me good old memory systems. It took me 1 hour and 30 mins. to memorize the Periodic Table of Elements, 20 mins. to learn Morse Code, and it took me five minutes to learn quite a bit about the Acadian civil war. DO NOT ask me for advise in regards to memory systems. I prithee. Every ten minutes, I come up with a new business idea. Not that I put them into action; it's just a 'thing' of mine. I'm a Canadian living externaly in a country I won't give you the name of. W00T5 4 T3H CA/\/4|)A!!11!ONE! THE 28 DAYS/WEEKS LATER INFECTED ARE NOT ZOMBIES!!! It pisses me so far off when people say that they are. One more note: It fascinates me how almost everyone on this wiki claims that Max Brooks barely knows what he’s doing, but absolutely everyone quotes him, references back to him, uses his material, constantly mentions him (in a positive fashion), and/or uses Solanum ideas, even though they all claim it (Solanum) is so unlikely. Some people claim he’s clueless one minute, and idol-worship him the next. Some plagiarize him, claim he’s a god, refer to him on a first-name basis, and/or credit him with the invention of the idea of zombies. Some want to send him death-threats (or have), insult him at every interval, call him derogatory or provocative names, and/or claim his work is not, in fact his own. This, boys and girls, is a very annoying thing for me, but also an interesting one. Either shut up about him or form a bleeding consistent opinion! My god, I’ve been waiting for that rant for a long time. I, for one, like Herr Brooks. When I started thinking way too much about Zombies: I played Time Splitters: Future Perfect. Gotta love the Mansion of Madness. Oh, and Jacob Crow! Cortez is hilarious. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance like a monkey. Move, move, move, move, move like a monKEY! Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing like a monkey. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance like a monkey. Do didle do, do, do. Do didle do, do, do. AHEM! Yeah. So. That series is a total classic. God, now I have to go play it. Jo Beth Casey. Harry Tipper. Kallos. Captain Ash. Anya. Corporal Heart. Yeah. Good games. Jaque de la Morte. The Cropolyte. That female robot thing that Cortez becomes in the second game. R 1-02. . . What started my zombie fixation: Iread WWZ, watched 28 Days/Weeks later (not that they're zombies), followed thereafter by the original Evil Dead, and the newest Dawn of the Dead. Favorite Zombie book: World War Z (Everyone's favorite). Favorite Zombie movie: Too hard to decide. Favorite quote in any zombie movie: "What about the government?" "There is no government." "Whah? No, there's ALWAYS a government. In a plane, in a bunker somewhere!" "There IS NO GOVERNMENT!" Don't ask why I like that; I just do. No, I don't like or agree in the least with disestablishmentarianism. It isn't that.
