People have said that deep down inside I am an old Victorian woman. Other equally accurate descriptions include queer, southpaw, hippie, two, catholic, limerent, feminist, prude, partisan, aries, race traitor, student, humboldtian, radical, flagrant jackass, B student, and george. But I'm told that labels are bad.
When read properly this LiveJournal is a mass of social commentary about our post-telegraph world.
Maps and globes easily distract me because I feel compelled to figure out what year they are from. It would help if I knew anything about geopolitical history.
I honestly believe a myriad of things I know to be false. This includes a massive temporal VW bus conspiracy, the nonexistence of the State of Wyoming, Los Angeles as everything below the 35th parallel in California, and my life being the basis for several cultural movements.
My finest attribute is my blatant hypocrisy. Not only do I frequently act on things which I swore I never would, I also hold everyone else to higher standards than I would ever dream of holding myself to.
If a person were to get me even slightly intoxicated they might notice my conversation topic going from mild mannered polite conversation to inflammatory post-structuralist social critique. Eventually I hope this person would realize I am always saying the same things, just carefully choosing my words while sober.
There is a series of children's books written about me:
The Adventures of the Fabulous Mr. Patrick
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick and How the Arkleys Cancelled Christmas
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Says No to a Drug Dealer
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Puts a Stop to Tomfoolery
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Gives a Dollar to a Homeless Person
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Argues with the Republicans
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Goes to the Beach
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick and Company Try to Smoke Pot
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Versus the Truth
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Leads a Coup
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Turns the Wheel of Industry
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick meets Karl the Bicyclist
The Fabulous Mr. Patrick Bakes a Loaf of Bread
