I'm Mark, 25 (eek!), and I'm an Arminaholic (gold star if you understand :-p). A passionate marmite lover who thinks olives are the devil, I enjoy using unnecessarily elaborate words for absolutely no reason, schmoozing in Starbucks, and long romantic walks to the fridge. Neat!

In general I'm a bit sardonic; a bit irreverent. And a bit of a contradiction.

My humour's from Friends and Scrubs (both of which I quote endlessly), but also Bill Bailey and Peter Kay ('Get a spoooon! Me biscuit's siiiinkin!'). My music taste is from Godskitchen, but also various bands and singer/songwriters, from Less than Jake and The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus to John Mayer and Jamie Cullum. Introspective lyrics and life's learning curve are all well and good (I write my own when they skim across my thoughts) - yet, I'm happiest when my world's filled with the spontaneous and instinctive.

To that end... I'm a clubber. I'm bookish. I play sport. I can dance. I'll frequently be found geeking it up and writing about it. I have all the time in the world for a well-crafted story; be it book, film, tv show or game. But I'm hardly high-brow. I still think Magical Trevor is the funniest thing I've ever seen.

I can be indoorsy (I think I made a word!), and outdoorsy too (two words!!), and at some point I'm going to up sticks and see the world. Some day.

On first impressions, I can seem arrogant, but I'm actually relatively self depreciating. Muppet-like at times and pretty down to earth at others, to the people that know me I'm loyal, honest, and open - yet I'll take the piss wherever possible, and confuse with long words where small ones would do. At heart, I'm a geek; some people don't get me, others I'll just click with.

Coffee and board games! Rock on!
