When I say "herp," y'all say "derp!"

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Name: Tom Williams (Formerly Evan)

Age: 20

Location: Franklin(summer)/Evansville(school), IN

How do you identify?: Pansexual meatbag.

Interests/hobbies: Odd/eclectic music and instruments, writing/reading, performance, parody, art/crafting (specifically Perler Beads!), biking, cooking, photography, singing, science-fiction, opera, a cappella music, zines, anything large-scale that could possibly brighten peoples' day. Also, bizarrely, serial killers and metaphysics. Oh yeah, and being totally derpy all the time forever. Derp.

Favourite books: Abarat, They Year of Yes, Fight Club, Oryx and Crake, As I Lay Dying, The Thran, The Saga of the Volsungs.

Favorite poets: Andrea Gibson, Ken Arkind, X. J. Kennedy, Dorothea Grossman, Margaret Atwood, Danielle Weeks

Favourite films: Shortbus, Ten-Inch Hero, Wristcutters: A Love Story, Inception, Star Trek, Sin City, Cashback. Indie/experimental films, and I'm a sucker for cheesy romances :p Genre-defying movies, character studies, vignette collections and arthouse films always rate well with me too. I usually love films that leave my brain in a smouldering lump on the floor, too, and I was raised on Ed Wood. I'm a HUUUUUUUUGE B-movie fan.

Favourite music: I AM A GIGANTIC FUCKING HIPSTER. Arcade Fire, Akeboshi, Beirut, Ben Folds, Counting Crows, Epik High, Fanfarlo, Gogol Bordello, Jack's Mannequin, Michelle Branch, Neutral Milk Hotel, Owl City, Regina Spektor, Jonsi, Sigur Ros, Tori Amos, The Goo Goo Dolls, The Mountain Goats The xx. Also, any band that uses the saw has a special place in my heart.

What would you like to send/receive?: Anything! Email, letters, maybe eventually text messages if we get along well (which I'm sure we will!)I would absolutely love to trade writing, and music (especially if you write your own, but I can't reciprocate that). Family recipes, things that inspire you, good luck charms, things that make you think...

Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: I generally communicate better with women, but I'm always up for talking to anyone :) I've actually never had a male penpal, but I'd be really interested to.

What countries would you like to receive mail from and send to?: Being the ridiculously poor college student that I am, I can only afford to send letters to people in America. HOWEVER! That will soon change, as next semester I'll start being a ridiculously poor college student in Japan. So on the off chance that there are any users based in Japan here, it would be an understatement to say that writing with you while there would be amazing.

Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?: Semi-accurate predictions of future events. Shit gets too weird >.> Also, anything relating to spiders.

What would be in your dream letter or package?: Something that surprises me so much I can't even begin to think of it now. Does that sound like a cop-out? I hope not >.>

Anything else you'd like to add?: I'll only be in America until roughly January, but I'd be more than happy to write letters until then, and switch to emails and the occasional postcard or Skype session :D

ADIPOSE!!!! -waves at fat-

Her name is Debbie, and she'S MADE OF BUTT X3

[deutschtard.livejournal.com]

I wish adipose were real honestly, although better made. Not thatthey'd turn the entire person into adiposes, but just that extra weight.


BUTTIPOSE X3

YOU'RE TELLING ME. I could do with one or two. can you convert height into one, plz?

[electrochemist.livejournal.com]

I don't live in the US or in Japan, but I feel the need to add you based on the title of this post alone ahahahahha. (Okay, and then I actually read the post and saw we have ridiculous amounts of things in common. :)

Add me? :D

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

MY HERPSHAKE BRINGS ALL THE DERPS TO THE YARD. I do this a lot. Hope you don't get bored of it XD

Done and done! Feel free to add me back, of course :D Can't wait to talk to you!!

[electrochemist.livejournal.com]

Dude. If that kind of thing bored me, I'd have to get rid of all my friends. And my roommate. For example, our wifi password is 'herpyderpy'.

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Earlier this year, I there was a week in which I sleepwalked every night, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are mysteries to me, but on Tuesday night I got my roommate's label maker, made a DERP label, and put it on my phone. Trufax.

[electrochemist.livejournal.com]

Hahhaa, amazing!

[vcnielson.livejournal.com]

The LAST thing I need is another penpal, so hell, why not?

I'll try to remember to post you a link to my intro on here later (I'm not on my normal computer right now).

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

This is me reminding you to do just that :D

[vcnielson.livejournal.com]

Lol, THANKS!

[hanemzette.livejournal.com]

I live nowhere near you nor in the US or Japan. Though the latter my brother's reside in. I'm a noob and I'm clueless but you interest me ;D It doesn't help, the fact that you are loud and colourful ;)

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Yay, thank you! I'd be more than happy to email and/or be facebook friends :)

[hanemzette.livejournal.com]

my mail is haene_emzette@hotmail.com ;) I don't really give out my facebook unless I know someone well enough. Do you mind? ;D

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Not at all, haha. It's probably a better idea than giving it out wantonly...like I do XD

[hanemzette.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, sorry, that sentence was interpreted in such a wrong way in my head. Heh. So what shall I address you as? Tom i presume ;)
Would it be alright if i email-ed you? I'd do it anyway but I though courtesy was in order ;D hahaha.

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Haha, nothing wring with that. I'd love it if you emailed me! And Tom is fine, haha. My address is guy.in.a.jar@gmail.com :D I can't wait to hear from you!

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Second: Thanks! and hello there yourself :D feel free to shoot me a message here or at guy.in.a.jar@gmail.com for some talk!

[apohdiopsis.livejournal.com]

Nice hair. Let's be friends.

[nerd-do-well.livejournal.com]

You sound awesome. Just sayin'.

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Why, thank you!

[nerd-do-well.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. :D

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Would you want to write, by any chance?

[nerd-do-well.livejournal.com]

Sure :D If it's snailmail, I'll warn you now that it'll be a long wait between replies - I never get stuff sent off promptly :/ But I respond to emails pretty fast, although it's entirely up to you which one you'd prefer we write by.

I'm right here (http://queermail.livejournal.com/244878.html), by the way, if you haven't already seen my intro :)

[reiyad-primus.livejournal.com]

Email's all good! I won;t be at home for the next few days, though, so if you shoot me an email I'll get back to you as soon as I can ^_^

I'm guy.in.a.jar@gmail.com

[nerd-do-well.livejournal.com]

Cool. :) Expect an email at some point in the near future, then. :D
