Latest Journal Entry: For the Silver One June 27, 2008, 06:43pm
Profile: Salutations! A quick warning, a request; Unless you're prepared to read this profile, please don't comment me. I don't particularly care what you think of my pretty little countenance if you haven't taken more time to study the mind beneath it. The human shell is irrelevant to the soul contained within. That said - Welcome. You've stumbled into the realm of Jack. Here, my friends, you may find enlightenment, that most valuable of intangible commodities. Yes, I call you friends, for each of you has the innate potential to be something incredible, someone I would be proud to call my ally. Unfortunately, most of you, in fact the overwhelming majority of you never will reach such a level, most of you are completely unaware of your potential, and worse still if you had it explained to you by a pantheon of gods in a private interview with tea and biscuits, you'd still actually reject the opportunity. Yes; intelligence is actually unfashionable! Particularly among the young, but then who can speak highly of the adult generation who, by and large, seem to have no higher goal than.. What? New cars, holidays to Cyprus, more deranged, spoiled children and one of those awful orangebrick houses in the estates that are rapidly levelling the last few green spaces in or around the cities of the UK. I'll.. Stop myself there. Surely, I should be writing a profile about myself, not the landmass I landed on after falling out of my mother's womb. Or rather being dragged out kicking and screaming, and I wasn't the only one kicking and screaming from what she is.. kind to tell me- But that's another story. Welcome, potential friends, to my profile. I'm a nineteen year old Jack of all Trades living in South Wales with a harried mother, an IT-studying sister and ten beautiful and deranged felines. I'm unemployed at present, and will likely remain so by the time you read this, neither am I engaged in a formalised education - Nor do I have the qualifications to show that I have ever been so. I like it this way.. I believe that formal education in a given subject most often burns out the interest, developing a psychological aversion to the very thing you intended as a path in life due to over-exposure and the transformation of that subject from a love into a financially-vital responsibility. I'm an aspiring artist, teaching myself to draw and to paint digitally while engaging in frequent bouts of photography and the odd photomanipulation project. I enjoy sculpting clay (or even white-tac) into miniature figures and forms, and am frankly an improvising genius at anything creative. Go on, try me. My real talent however lies in concept and design, the art backs it up. My real passion and pleasure in life, that to which I dedicate the larger portion of my non-leisure time, is writing and design. I lack the patience to write to my full potential, I believe it's either something I'll grow into or find a way through with time. My mind moves far quicker than my pen, or even my fingertips on a keyboard, so I end up leaving myself behind and simply losing connection to the point in my story. A rapid imagination coupled with an obsessive perfectionism lends well to good writing, but not to successfully completing a work beyond a few chapters. Personality-wise, I'll warn you I'm intensely, almost definitively intolerant. I discriminate against no-one for their origin, ethnicity, sexuality, or gender; what I do discriminate against them for, without exception, is stupidity. The tolerance of abject stupidity, cruelty, and laziness encourages it to grow, to expand, to deepen, to intensify and simply to continue. Intolerance can stop it at the source and guide a person down a better path. We are creatures of infinite potential, and to ignore it seems a crime. We are creatures of infinite possibility on a finite planet, and if we destroy it or each other before we can expand beyond the borders of this sphere, so much is wasted. I'm also elitist, with an intense superiority complex; pause, consider that oneday, somewhere, someone who thinks they're truly superior might actually be correct. I'm imperfect, as anyone, but I see the world as clearly as I can, I ignore no truths, I avoid no facts and I do all I can to be as pure and logical as I can. If you've a problem, I can fix it, but don't expect me to comfort you if you've done something stupid. Do not expect forgiveness you know you don't deserve. I hold everyone to my own extreme standards and if you do not match them (Which you have the potential to) my respect for you will be severely limited. Well, you've had your warnings *grins* Aside from that I'm dangerously laid back, frequently inspired, slightly sick, very odd, openly and confidently sexual, adventurous, athletic, obsessive-compulsive, focused, driven, a complete attention whore, I wear very interesting hats when the mood strikes me, I wear nothing but plain, black and practical clothes, I'm almost exclusively carnivorous and I thrive upon anything involving chicken, strawberries or perhaps in some bizarre restaurant oneday; both. Also, feed me chinese takeaway and I will never leave your side. That's Jack. There's far more to me, but if I wrote further you'd only explode and then I wouldn't get a new friend, would I? Besides, if I said anymore we'd have less to talk about when you inevitably dive onto my comment button to profess your dedication to the Jackian World Order! Likes: I love food. I love fiction. I love something else beginning with F, and it's not fish nor is it falafel. Take a guess. I love art, in numerous forms. Music? I enjoy certain pieces considerably, but if only to differentiate from the mass I'll state that it is not of as great as significance to me as books, films or games, the other three primary entertainment mediums. I love computer games, of the more visceral or thoughtful sort. Two extremes; if it can make me think, or it requires that I test my reflexes against other players and get to decapitate them with my bare virtual hands, I'll probably love it. For the record, the finest games ever made include Fallout, Grim Fandango, Shadow of the Colossus and System Shock 2. Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Project Zero, Forbidden Siren and more also score quite highly because few things are more fun than being scared out of your fucking wits, right? ^_^ I enjoy fighting almost as much as the other ing beginning with f, I'd love to have a sparring partner to practise various martial arts with and to produce my own self-defense methods. I hate spectator sport, few things seem lazier or more wastefully indulgent than ten thousand people sitting down to watch 20 of them kicking a ball. Go kick the ball yourselves you lazy little gits! Go on, all get on the pitch! That would be fun. Toss in a few chainsaws and some medieval weaponry and we'll have us a good reality-tv arena deathmatch, hmm? I do, however, enjoy playing Badminton. Such quick reflexes and endurance required there. I also like shooting things, throwing knives at them and blowing them up. Burning things is also near-orgasmic. Join me! Dislikes: Above all, stupidity, a close and firmly connected second; humanity. If I'm listing my dislikes in this rather fucked up little world we could spend a long time here, and I'm not petty enough to regard my dislikes as immediately worth your time, kind reader. I'll list my true despised aversions to offer an alternative perspective on my character; Addiction to intoxicants. The abuse of drugs, alcohol, even emotional behaviours to achieve a high and hide from reality disgusts me. There may be such a thing as mature and responsible usage, but even there laziness is evident, as I've yet to find a chemically encouraged psychological or physical effect that cannot be achieved by willpower alone. What else? Rape. That will do. The use of force upon a physically weaker individual to steal sexual gratification. Now, logically, I really shouldn't have a problem with it, it's natural, instinctive, and I believe in the right of the strong to take what they will, otherwise the weak will flourish, the strong will die, and evolution will be halted. But.. There's just something about rape. Contrary to traditional animal instinct, I have a deep-seated instinct to defend against sexual exploitation. Rape of a friend is the only event that has ever caused me to experience the famed 'seeing red', where the vision actually becomes red, reported of 'berserker' warriors of days gone by and of schitzophrenics and those pushed to breaking point even now. Rape is theoretically universal between genders, but my instinct, as a straight male, seems only to apply to female victims. If I hear word or see hint of any male in my vicinity attempting to coerce, manipulate or force a girl into sexual congress, without her admitted desire to be dominated, I am liable to attempt to remove his eyes with my thumbs. I think that will do for the 'dislikes' section? Favorite Music: Ye gods.. So according to Vampirefreaks, the only things that matter to us in life are likes, dislikes, and our favourite music? I prefer books, games.. Hell, I'll list my favourite authors here, they include Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett, Garth Nix, Frank Herbert, JRR Tolkein, and H.P. Lovecraft. Games, you've already seen above. Films, don't even go there, ask me in person if you dare broach the massive subject of cinema with me. Bring a sleeping bag and water rations if you want to survive the conversation. But music? Ach.. Rammstein, A Perfect Circle, Tool, The Nine Inch Nails, The Gorillaz, System of a Down.. Plenty else, but mostly individual songs. Ask, and I'll share them with you online. I think this concludes my profile. Well done for getting this far, I sincerily hope you didn't skip to this point.. *grins* Homepage: http://jakkar.deviantart.com
