A Brief Summary of Me

I'm an

.

What that DOES NOT mean is that I'm ignorant about politics, enjoy jumping off bridges and blowing up buildings in my spare time, beat people to a pulp with the Bible, or hate every living being (see Nihilism).

What this DOES mean is that I don't care who's running this country or any other country. Unless that person is somehow me and someone neglected to tell me. In that case I hereby grant all power and authority given to me to the vice president and resign from office. I have never voted and never intend to.

Sometimes my words and actions contradict the "social norms" or even the laws of the United States of America. For example, if a male hits me, I will hit him back. If a female hits me, I will hit her back.

What I'm doing on Wikipedia

I have a keen interest (and some degree of knowledge) in music, especially punk and all things related. I'm anal-retentive about sub genres of music because there are differences that distinguish the types of music I like from the types of music I don't like (Death Metal vs. Glam Metal "heavy metal" may describe both of them, but they're quite different). That said, I'm not a genre warrior. I realize I am not always right. Because of (not in spite of) my personal beliefs, I love and support Wikipedia and the NPOV policy, because everyone is entitled to their opinions... even if they're wrong. :) So yeah. After years of reading Wikipedia, I've finally decided to contribute.
