Zanshikaze, 45

Serious Leftist, but not so serious.... Just a young man from the Jackson Purchase, an aspiring writer and comedian. I love to cook, mostly Japanese, Chinese, Italian, Mexican, Russian, and contemporary United States and Southern food. I love photography, filmmaking, the arts in general. I read quite a bit. Fav authors are Vonnegut, Tolstoi, Nietzsche, Camus, Anne Rice, Isaac Asimov, H.G. Wells, Douglas Adams.
I love gaming, since it's probably what I do most. I play the mmo Shadowbane, as well as Lord of the Rings Online, but I also love playing Wii, PS2, my DS, and many retro systems(such as my fav Dreamcast ^_^).
I'm very big into japanese culture, including but not limited to the language, music, games, and cuisine. I speak some japanese, as well as a very small bit of Arabic. Sore kara, nihongo ga tyotto jouzu jya nei desu yo. I'm very into anime and things that relate to it, so that's a warning or a great statement I suppose.
One thing I'm very in tune with, or like to think I'm in tune with, is the weird. I love that which is beyond the normalcy accepted by the majority of the populus. There's a very wonderous thing in the disturbed looks of people when someone or something odd comes into vision. For that reason, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, as well as Christmas. I'm very interested in people to whom weirdness is attracted, since it tends to be attracted to me as well.
All in all, I'm generally someone who can have a great time in a small town Waffle House, or a crowded arcade, or a barren closed-mall infested road strip in a large city at 3 in the morning. The determining factor in my having fun is the people who are with me, and failing that, my own imagination and mood, which having ADHD, I attempt to spike with hyperactive stimuli created by things around me or myself. I don't know how to end these things, so gambate kudasai. Matta ne.
