If you were a paragraph of text, what would the paragraph say to describe itself?

Oh shit. I'd probably be a very dense paragraph.

Right now I'm in college, and I am much happier than I have ever been because I never did very well socially before because of my AS and being gay. A lot of people at my college are pretty odd so people don't think that I'm that odd. I don't usually tell people that I'm AS because I figured out that if I have a really childlike persona it's not as noticeable and also people are more likely to forgive me for making mistakes.

Do you belong to a particular religion? If so, which one?

I used to be a deist. Recently I've become pretty interested in Christianity because I read some C.S. Lewis and I want to think more about maybe becoming Christian.

I don't like food that is complicated.

If tomorrow was yesterday, would you do it the same?

No, I spent too much time on wikipedia.

What's the best date you've ever been on?

My first date, when I was 15. We went to see The Nighmare Before Christmas. I've only been on like three dates though.

Describe your ideal person:

Like to date or in general? I like people who care about being kind and think about other people's feelings and don't write people off and get really really occupied by projects and fandom and stuff. I usually get crushes on girls who are kind of grumpy although I'm not very grumpy myself.

Watching Wizard People, Dear Reader, or something like that.
