Who I'd like to meet:
Who I meet is who I'll meet...Sometimes I think I prefer staring at lobsters crawling on each other in a tank; I can do this for hours. None of us humans are that special, next time you take a number 2 take a good look at it laying fallow in the bowl and repeat out loud to yourself, "I made that!"... However, I love people the most because they are more interesting than the universe. Otherwise, I would like to meet Shakira to hip hop dance with me or just people who are trapped in an act, living as a version of themselves based on what people around them want to see. This type of Myspace thing will be great for us in the future when we are all old and playing pee knuckle or mah jongg or drinking coffee in mcdonalds doing crossword puzzles alone after our spouses have died and kids have grown and friends are dead or too disabled to leave the house. It will be a really nice way to meet others just like us to play pee knuckle or mah jongg or drink coffee and do crossword puzzles in mcdonalds with.Details
