I'm a pirate...Go f*ck yourself
I detest people. Wikipedia really pisses me off. No one follows the rules. Yet I find myself addicted. I do not wish to disclose much about myself. I am a college student and have been for quite some time. I only say that as it has been previously discovered. Suffice to say that nothing matters about me other than the fact that I am here as an intellectual and wish to help wikipedia become better. I am quite interested in (and have studied much in) anthropology, psychology, religion, philosophy, music, art, and many other things, and that is probably reflected in my edits.
I do not hesitate to report people who vandalize pages or write stupid bullshit.
A good number of people seem to think I was an extremist. That may or may not be so. It's interesting to note that many of these same people are themselves extremists, though I'm sure they don't think so. Sometimes extremism needs to be battled with extremism. As an interesting factoid, many of those accounts who so vehemently battled me and were so assured in their self righteousness are now blocked or have retired. Sweet vindication.
Yes, I've been blocked before. A total of six times, as a matter of fact. I was much more "edgy" when I joined up on wikipedia and there was a period when many people were blocked for warring on a particular issue. Howevever, my last block was in November 2007, so bringing it up helps no one. I contributed after that block and didn't run into any problems. The past is the past and people change. I could just as easily have made a new account but chose not to.
I have a sense of humor that not many seem to get. It's kinda dry I suppose. I'm very sarcastic sometimes and usually always quite satirical. I love lambasting mainstream culture and the media. Also just about everything else that people take way too seriously.
I admit I can be somewhat of an elitist at times, but I also consider myself an intellectual and I'm always open to friendly debates and the such and am extremely tolerant and open. I quite dislike ignorant, intolerant and close-minded people.

Acraea terpsicore, commonly known as the tawny coster, is a species of butterfly in the Nymphalidae family, the brush-footed butterflies. It is found across eastern Asia from India and Sri Lanka to Singapore, Indonesia and the Maldives and, more recently, Australia. It is small, with a size of 53–64 millimetres (2.1–2.5 in), has leathery wings and is common in grassland and scrub habitats. Acraea terpsicore has a weak fluttery flight and is avoided by most insect predators. This A. terpsicore individual was photographed in Komodo National Park, Indonesia.Photograph credit: Charles J.

Nicholas of Worcester (died 1124) was the prior of the Benedictine priory of Worcester Cathedral(crypt pictured) from about 1115 until his death. He was born around the time of the Norman Conquest. It is not known who his parents were, but William of Malmesbury wrote that he was "of exalted descent", and it has been argued that he was a son of King Harold Godwinson. Nicholas was the favourite pupil of Wulfstan, the bishop of Worcester, who brought him up. Wulfstan was influential in transmitting Old English culture to Anglo-Norman England, and Nicholas carried on this work as prior. He was respected by the chroniclers William of Malmesbury, John of Worcester and Eadmer for his assistance with their histories. Nicholas was an English monk at a time when both Englishmen and monks rarely received promotion in the church, and when Bishop Theulf of Worcester died in October 1123, Nicholas led an unsuccessful attempt of the monks of the priory chapter to be allowed to choose the next bishop.
