Most of my friends have moved away from Philly. The older I get, the harder it is to meet people. I've been using this account to find romantic/sexual partners but I really need friends, too.
I'd love to find local people to hang out with. I work from home and it can get very lonely.
Let's do fun stuff! When you reach out, please let me know if you're responding to a friendship or dating post. I should probably have different accounts for these...
A little about me:
- I have a good job designing software for a giant, evil health insurance company. I work from home in Center City, Philly.
- I’m an indie rocker and generally creative. I write songs and letters that don’t suck. Slowly working on an album. When we match up, I’ll send links to my music if you’re interested. I like hanging out with other creative types.
- I love the water. I try to get to into the rec center pool every day. It's so good for the soul to be in the water, under the sky. I haven't been to the beach in far too long. Let's go!
- Philly is my default city. Over the past 20 years, I’ve lived in Philly, NYC, Upstate NY, DC, Czech Republic, Israel, Houston… I was a consultant, so I moved around a lot. That said, part of me dreams of escaping the city to someplace with water, trees, and parking.
Here are some things I like:
• Movies: Wings of Desire, The Jerk, Secretary, Reuben & Ed, Sid & Nancy, Bill & Ted, Harold & Maude, Blade Runner, Annie Hall, Rear Window, Zombieland, Better Off Dead, Scott Pilgrim, Shaun of the Dead, Spinal Tap!, Pootie Tang, Can’t Hardly Wait.
• TV: Bob’s Burgers, Always Sunny, Game of Thrones, Dexter, Community, Troy and Abed in the Morning, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly (pretty much anything sci-fi), Sherlock, MST3k, I Think You Should Leave, Fleabag, Broad City, Baby Billy’s Bible Bonkers, What We Do In The Shadows.
• Books: (Lots of the classics) Salinger, Kundera, Confederacy of Dunces, To Kill a Mockingbird (Fun fact: this was written by Bruce Lee’s sister, Harper.), Day by Day Armageddon.

Ok, I'm a dumbass. I should have just made you a spotify playlist and linked to that. I'll do that for your next mixtape...
I don't usually cite favorites, though. It can feel like a kindergarten activity. "So what's your favorite color, little Billy?"
Looking forward to hearing from you…
