About me

Gender Male
Location Pittsburgh, PA, United States
Introduction I adore nearly everything about Japan, and am very proficient at spoken and written Japanese. I love collecting strange/interesting/rare things (also mainly from Japan) & that is usually what my blog is about & embarrassingly why I haven't MOVED to Japan yet. I try not to regurgitate 2/4chan or J-news/gaming/otaku articles like a lot of blogs. Aside from my gamer/J-culture leanings, I love cultural exchange, video games, writing, reading, computers (building & using), stupid DIY projects that look nice, cooking, gardening, sketching/design and animals. I don't like disingenuous people, weaboos (see above), impresarios, pretentiousness, western religion, undue arrogance/egotism, self-centeredness, people that are contentious or literal or overly-argumentative about everything, "musicians" (the, "Dude, I totally have a band so I know everything, and all music sucks but what I listen to," type) and people with sticks up their asses 24/7. I can be fairly negative at times, and for some reason I seem to repel the opposite sex more often than not, perhaps the two have something to do with one another.
