Hello /r4r! I don't know about you all, but last year has been a crazy ride for me. Heartbreak and happiness, letdowns and adventures, visiting loves ones and being alone. I ended up making a huge change of course in my life, got a new job, made new friends and lost many old ones. It's been a while since I've been this content with where I have ended up. Somehow, somewhere though, something feels a little amiss - I miss having someone to share everyday with. If that's you too, well maybe we can hit it off and see where it goes? 😊
Anyway, a little about me - I'm basically your friendly neighbourhood funny guyâ„¢ (mostly self proclaimed), that usually ends up in more funny situations than not. Like no seriously, the amount of stupid life stories I have is sometimes a little worrying (try me). I'm a little awkward around new people but once I warm up to you I'm mostly funny and witty, you just better hope you enjoy being assaulted with puns. If you like shitty jokes, you should message me your best (worst?) one!
I used to watch a ton of TV and movies, and I still try to keep up when I can - I watch pretty much anything and always looking for recommendations. Also, if you haven't seen the show Severance you should stop and go watch now. I'll wait. I always love talking / fangirling / discovering stupid fan theories about stuff, so if you want to talk about it, I'm all game! Book recommendations are also welcome - I reallly want to get back into reading as many books as I did as a kid. I love some science fiction, but I'll read anything interesting too!
Okay, let's see, hobbies? Oh god I have too many to list. I sometimes feel like I'm on an endless rotation between new and possibly pointless hobbies that I get into for a while and then completely abandon. Do I enjoy puzzles? You bet I do. Magic Tricks? Pick a card. Juggling? Actually no I hit my face with the ball and then stopped, but anyway. Photography? Been there snapped that. Am I particularly good at any of these? uhm... well, I'm fun at parties at least! Point is, I love learning new stuff, so if you've got a hobby you want to share with someone (or just want to learn something random together) you should most definitely count me in!
So what am I looking for? Mostly to meet cool people to do cool stuff with - road trips, travelling, 1am ice cream trips, or just making spontaneous plans - or just generally my person I guess. Maybe it'll lead to something more, or perhaps we'll just get a new friend out of it. I've got a group of friends I hang out with every so often, but honestly most of them tend to be flaky and it's just such a pain having to coordinate stuff with everyone all the time, sometimes I just want to grab someone and go do something in the moment, you know? Or jump on a discord call at the end of the day and rant about work or share a funny thing that happened that day. (Does anyone here still like talking on a call?!)
I work in tech and I'm very passionate about what I do, and love talking about it. I don't expect you to be in / familiar with any of it, but I would appreciate someone who doesn't mind me explaining and talking about stuff to them (and of course, be willing to share whatever they do / love with me in return). I feel like when something is such a big part of our lives, that's something you definitely need to be able to share with someone in some capacity.
I don't particularly care about where you're from / how tall you are / etc, all I care about is that we have some common interests and you're actually interested in meeting up and seeing where it goes! I'm honestly a little tired of the whole only talk online for a day or two and then get ghosted routine. I'm not the most physically attractive, so if that bothers you - well now you know.
Anyway, that's all from me, if any of this tickles your fancy, DM me with your best/favorite pun and perhaps a little introduction about you? I'm happy to share pictures / other social media / discord if you prefer talking there (I know I do). Either ways, if you've made it here I hope you have a great day :)
