User:Strabismus

NOTE!: THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION. So, either put up with the (temporary) asymmetry or get lost! ;-) A little bit about me. I am me. I love music. Styles are like attitudes: I don't like unpleasant attitudes and I don't like unpleasant music. Fortunately, there is a surplus of very good music. I love language(s). I don't think there is a single language that I actually hate. But I am a bit picky when it comes to how a language is used. English is a tough language even for English speakers! But, just like a magic wand, once you learn how to wield it, you can work wonders with it! The same holds true for French and a few other languages—FEW other languages ;-) With patience and practice, difficulty becomes skill… I also love food; so much so, that it shocks me that I'm not f-…, uh, I mean… horizontally challenged. Anywhat, I could go on and on and on about myself, but I don't want to—not here, at least.
