Pinging off LLs thread related to our collective interest covering a multitude of “sins”; are there any other references or cultural interests that to you, exhibit the idea that you could potentially get along with someone? If so, how concrete do you perceive them to be?
In short, if I told you the following things about myself, what could you surmise assuming you had the desire to meet me in person? Only use what I have listed in this post, and not any preconceived notion you have arrived at from existing forum content. Feel free to ask for more info on a question…
I have the significant memories associated with the song(s)
Kings of Leon - Taper Jean Girl
Rabbit in the Moon - OBE
Joy Division - Love will Tear us Apart
Some of my favorite movies are:
Road to Perdition
Man on Fire
The Notebook
Rushmore
3)Last book I read (non-academic) was Mad Dog Killers: The Story of a Congo Mercenary
Other forums I follow frequently are:
[H]ardforum
pistol-forum
Bushcraftusa
In a social-environment I stick with whom ever Im with, I dont try to meet new people / im slow to trust /make new friends.
I exercise around 5 days a week, try to watch what I consume.
Two blogs I follow are:
OfTwoMinds
SoldierSystems
Some of my favorite bands / musicians are:
Bonobo
KOL (albums 1,2,3 only)
Third Eye Blind
I laugh frequently, I have a dry-sarcastic sense of humor.
Im passionate about the Pro-Life topic.
One of my favorite quotes is from Calvin Coolidge - “Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”
My biggest regret is not joining the military.
My biggest success is my marriage.
If money was no consideration- I would be philanthropic, generous, and on a personal level I would buy a large ranch where I would provide the means for my entire immediate family to have their own home on the land.
Can you profile me from that? Just curious…thanks for the time if you participate.
If you had 5 folks all answering the same questions and were only going to meet 3, is that information suitable or even remotely interesting enough to make your 3 choices? How much does cyberdata or a person’s non-biological inherited culture mean to you?
Yea yea… I knew I would get a proper hazing. I had to pick something to make me seem more well rounded rather than 3 war films. Go ahead …ive been T’d before.
Maybe it’s me but I can’t judge someone on their “Likes”. I have friends with many different interists and values. Maybe I’m a simple guy (minded) but I can get along with just about anyone with half a brain.

Sadmin, other than our choices in music and movies (holy shit dude, really? The Notebook?) I could’ve written that same thing about myself. Almost word for word.

-was asked to write vows, said no. read standard vows
-i do try to speak up for the meek and try to have constant prospective checks, just because I cant empathize, i feel that doesnt mean I cannot understand.
well truth be told, the Notebook sort of corrupted the whole thing. Honestly, its not one of my favorites, as in I have seen it frequently or desire to watch it multiple times. I just tried to have a different genre other than what I do consider my favorite or will watch over and over. In turn though, I failed to provide a true representation of myself… I guess this is why sites like e-harmony dont ask crap like that. I always thought someones media tastes said a lot about them but I suppose you cannot derive that without many more examples.
I wonder what percentage of M4C would feel that one through six DIDN’T represent them. Seems you could write that for any random participant here, and have a greater than 50% probability of being correct. The age postulate might be an exception.
