At Elftown, my s/n is Roc.

As of now, 8-25-2005, these are my qualifications for me to respond to your messages.

1. I will not talk to a woman under the age of 17 without a boyfriend or 16 with a boyfriend.
2. I will not respond to any pick up lines.
3. I will not respond to a mere "hi," "how are you?" "hey hottie?" or like messages. Message me using some sort of intellect or inclination you've actually read my description.
4. I like the use of punctuation in messages, so USE IT!
5. I won't respond to excessive "puter-talk." I can handle a little.
6. And finally, if you haven't gathered it yet...I DON'T CYBER!

_____________________________________________

A couple of things before I get started on discussing who I am: I hate it when people say, "I hate preps," or "I hate school; it's a prison," or "Goth forever." I am sick of it. As a non-prep, former demi-goth, I would like to comment: PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE! PEOPLE OF ALL SOCIAL CLASSES AND CLASSIFICATIONS CAN BE DECENT HUMANS BEINGS IF YOU DON'T JUDGE THEM PREMATURELY.
----ALSO, PEOPLE CHANGE. YES, YOU WILL CHANGE A LOT!

General description? "Of what," I ask. If it were up to me, I would ask specific questions, as to ensure satisfaction with the general description of person, x.



Oh, well. I might as well give this a try. As you may have already assumed, I am a cynic. Moreover, I have an all-around poor sense of humor: dry, dark, and twisted. I wouldn't say I have any admirable qualities aside from my keen fashion sense (sarcasm at its finest).
----Holy crap, I just realized I am able to completely be an SOB throughout my entire "general description." But we wouldn't want that, would we?


So I won't. I'll be serious from here on out...mostly.


Who is Mike?


First off, apparently, I am worth exactly $1,995,576, according to a scientific analysis conducted by [www.humanforsale.com].


I know some words people would use to describe me: LIBERAL, short, individualistic, desperate and lonely, (((more coming soon))).


Overview:
I am political junkie who LOVES to debate. I am a college student at UWS, and I'm going for a legal studies major with a political science minor. Then, it's off to law school!


My interests:
One could look at the bottom, but I'll say here, just for good measure.
Music (pretty much anything with a guitar, plus jazz, regea, and select hip-hop/rap and country/western SONGS), politics, law, the outdoors (I love backpacking, canoeing, and biking), playing some sports, poetry (writing and reading), and video games.
----But hey, I love just chillin' with my friends. I love having conversations about religion, love, sexuality, but sometimes, it's just fun shooting the bull.


According to TV Guide Online [http://www.tvguide.com/special/starwars/quiz.asp], I am a Jedi Master.


Though I am usually a very good sport about most things, there are things I do get rather annoyed by...especially here on EP.
1. Screen names with ["..."(17)(18)] and you're really only 13. [It doesn't work]; this tactic will not get men to talk to you, because there's a little thing called "statutory rape." This is a FELONY and will land a man a LOT of time in PRISON.
...okay, so I can't think of anything more right now...
