Science Fiction

January 17th 2008 13:17
I'm not the most pathetic nerd that you'll ever meet, but I can see where he lives from where I am. I have an internet blog (you are reading it). I'm a white male with too much time on my hands.

I will bet you whatever amount of money that you are willing to part with, that every person who loosely meets the above criteria reads science fiction books (please don't try and take my money if you do happen to win this bet; this is a poor joke and I'm a poor person!)

It's a horribly crippling social stigma to deal with, but I do my best to get by. Here's an article about it which I liked and maybe you will like it too: Really Long Link

This is an amazingly lazy blog post and I apologise for being such a terrible person. I will do better next time, friends.

Also, you may (or may not) notice that this blog has existed for only a very short time and I have mentioned a certain British newspaper three times already, despite it being fairly irrelevant. I realise that I'm obsessed with it in a pretty hopeless sort of manner but at least I hope there's something quasi-interesting about a handsome, young Australian man obsessed with quality British journalism?!

(Girls, feel free to message me privately and ask for a photograph; I won't be offended.)

you're not poor, you have a golden arm!

I'm cash poor. All my wealth is tied up in that goddamn arm and I can't find a buyer for it, so I'm stuck with it!

I'm not a white male with too much time on my hands, and I'm down with sci-fi. I dunno, as I've gotten older, I don't mind the stigma attached to liking it.

And I get a kick out of talking about geeky things with my Australian friends, who seem to abhor the idea.

Hmmm, well I can see your photo from here, and I'm not so sure about the webbed feet.
