I think it's about time I changed my profile.

To make it easy for both you and me, I'll do it in point form.

- My name is Will.
- I work in retail.
- I'm told I have the patience of a saint. (You have to when you work in retail)
- I've also been told (on several occasions) that I look like Daniel Day Lewis. I usually take it as a compliment.
- I have 2 tattoos and 9 piercings.
- I'm a bit of a nerd.
- I enjoy video games and I prefer games that make you think over games where you point and shoot. (Except for COD: Modern Warfare 2, which is pure, concentrated awesome)
- I've invested way too much time into Guitar Hero and Rock Band.
- I've also recently grown very fond of DJ Hero.
- I firmly believe that anything can be made better if you add zombies.
- I have a very eclectic taste in music, but I usually stick to any genre with "rock" in it's name.
- At the time of this writing, I'm listening to the most recent album from my favourite band, Dream Theater.
- Some other bands I've been into recently are Machine Head, Nine Inch Nails, Iron Maiden, All That Remains, Black Tide, Muse, Combichrist, Adema, Children of Bodom, Killswitch Engage, Protest the Hero, The Devil Wears Prada, and Unearth.
- I collect vinyl.
- I don't watch much TV. Instead, I have a few shows that I watch religiously (Or whole seasons at a time). These shows include TrueBlood, Dexter, Lost, Two And A Half Men, 30Rock, The Mentalist, Flashpoint, House M.D., and Stargate Universe.
- I believe in quality over quantity. That being said, that doesn't mean you can get away with a ridiculously short, generic message. I want substance.
- I'm an atheist that still governs his life according to the golden rule because it's the only thing about religion that makes sense to me. I also still say "Bless you" after someone sneezes because I'm not a pompous ass.
-I also believe in karma.
- I'm anal about spelling and grammar and I will judge you based on it.
- I am definitely a meat eater. My food eats vegetables. I hope this won't be a problem for you.
- I think astrology is a crock.
- I love thunderstorms.

Well, I hope that's enough to pique your interest. If you feel we'd get along, feel free to message me. What's the worst that can happen?

Also, I try to respond to every message that I feel deserves a response. If I don't get back to you right away, it's because I'm trying to think of the right thing to say. I like to choose my words carefully.

*UPDATE* I've had a recent trend of criticizing the messages I get from people. I only do this to people who have a great profile, but sent me a message I would normally delete right away. So here's a disclaimer. If you send me a message, I WILL tell you what is wrong with it and how it can be improved. If I do not respond, that means I read your profile and either didn't think we'd jive, or I thought it was as bad as the message you sent me. So if I tore apart your message, don't be offended because that only means I think you're a great person who just made a bad first impression. With all that said, if you get offended when I criticize your message, that means you didn't read my profile and you deserve the message you got. So why not send me a message to see how I will criticize it? You can even challange yourself to send me a message I can't criticize in any way. You've been warned.

*New Rule* I'd prefer it if you're an 80's baby, However, the youngest I'll go is legal drinking age. I have standards. (Addendum: Legal drinking age in ONTARIO. Stop trying to be witty) =P

That would depend entirely on who you are. If you like pool, we'll play pool. If you like golf, we'll do mini putt. If you like to eat, we'll go out for lunch, dinner or maybe a coffee or tea. I'm opposed to movies or stage productions on the first date. How will we be able to talk to eachother?
