If a picture says a thousand words, you'd need a thousand words to paint a vivid picture. A tl;dr version of a person is pointless. Don't see a wall of text, pretty as the bricks may be; see a person, and even then it's just a glimpse. And yes, I do know I talk some shite at times, but should I lie to you?

Hopefully there's some entertainment value in here as well.

About Me

I'm an ardent proponent of gallantry. Fairy tales of knights and fair maidens, chivalry and courtly love might be somewhat outdated, but it is still only proper for a man to show respect and honour to women.

I'm a hopeless romantic, though I may not always show it; still just a man for all that. But I'm always faithful, and honest with my heart, devoted to a fault. I love to love, and there is a big part of me which is empty when I have no lady to champion.

I love to write, express myself on a screen or a page using colourful language and archaic words. Sadly I am neither as articulate or as eloquent in the flesh, where words sometimes fail me and I swear as much as any other Scot. But when I write you are my sun and stars, you'll know it to be true, metaphorically speaking.

I have suffered from 'nice guy syndrome'; I didn't even know there was such a thing until recently. It will be hard to change that, but only a fool learns naught from his mistakes, and a fool makes for a poor knight (plus I'd look shit in motley). So I won't let my next lady dishonour me so, but if they love me they'll love me, and I'll still be a nice guy inside.

The future I dream of is set to the chorus of tiny feet and warmed by the lady at my side. Anything else would be a bonus which pales in significance. I may have neither castle nor steed, but I can surely make a home. My dad was a joiner, after all.

My wit is scathing, I'm nothing if not a sardonic bastard. But I'm not mean, you just can't take everything seriously, and to laugh is to live. If my humour doesn't make you smile, there will be little between us... except a chilly silence and disapproving looks, perhaps.

I'm a massive geek, and proud of it. I love to lose myself in books, mostly featuring swords and dragons and wonderful worlds - fuel for my imagination. I love computers, and yes I can take a look at your laptop but, look, do you have to stand over my shoulder, and, yes I know what I'm doing, and, jesus fuck did you want to do it yourself?! ...*cough*... I love to eat, as to eat it to live (literally in this instance). Chinese, Italian, traditional Scottish fare and American junk, but most of all Indian and Mexican, as spice is the... spice... of life? (too many jokes now? Even I can see this is getting lame). I love to learn about history, to hear what some long dead guys said, then quoting it as my status on Facebook (old meets new); sadly, I do not have a quote to hand about people who write screeds of shit that no one has the time to read (maybe I've never read one?). I love dancing when I've had a few drinks in me, but I'm not very good; I like to think I save my best moves for elsewhere. I'll never forsake you as I weep over the actions of eleven dudes I've never met (some of whom will invariably have been accused of rape) on a gaint rectangle of grass.

If you've read this far, congratulations. Here endeth the lesson.
