I have probably pictured you naked.

While this may or may not have been enjoyable for me, the above statement is true. I am just an animal; a tall, dark, and handsome beast that is driven by desire. I've come to the conclusion that I rarely do anything that I don't want to do, and only look out for number one. I mostly spend my time pursuing solely my interests, I don't bite my tongue ever (it arguable whether or not I even know how to do this), and I'm most certainly not apologetic. Now I'm not saying I'm perfect, you can though but I can't because humility is important. I say dumb things, drink too much, drive way too fast, and generally rock faces off when said rocking is not appropriate. Also, I love oversimplified comparisons as opposed to structured arguments. That being said, here is the pro's and con's of being Mark Whitmarsh II:

Pro: I am 6'4''; not only am I tall but I have good posture which helps me see over mere mortals in a crowd. However, Wawa likes to put their signs (in spite of my numerous objections) at eye-level for me, which is moderately annoying but brings attention to the fact that I am gigantic; so I'll call that a wash.
Con: I laugh at my own jokes. Just like my fondness of Uwe Boll movies, I enjoy horrible jokes, especially when I tell them. On a good note, my laugh is ridiculous and distinctive. So that's almost worth the pain of the joke in itself.
Pro: I know how the heel-toe shift. While you may have no idea what this means, trust me it’s awesome. Just because you can't drive your cousin's Corolla that's a 5-Speed, does not mean that driving stick isn't important or cool. It just means that you suck at life that much worse. Plus, chicks dig guys who can drive stick, at least that's what I've based my entire life around thus far.
Con: I ran over 9 miles the other day. Not really a con, just wanted to everyone to know that, because my knee freaking hurts now. But seriously that's like the entire width of my state at the top. Super powers? Not out of the question.
Pro: I drink Martinis and listen to super-cool indie music, and like to talk with others who do as well.
Con: I will talk about Martinis and my awesome music with you whether or not you like them too, and you will get the feeling that it doesn't matter to me anyway (which is true).
Pro: As my 5th grade math teacher once told me, I have a superior attitude which makes me think that everyone does and should like me and my antics, as well as the confidence to try things I would otherwise not.
Con: I have a superior attitude which hides from me that some people do not enjoy my antics, and that I can't do some things, theoretically anyway until I can find some who doesn't actually like me.
Pro: I am an engineer, which means that at some point in my life I might actually contribute to the good of society, which would negate the bad things I have done/will do.
Con: On that plus/minus scale I just mentioned above, I am only looking to, at best, break even.
Pro: I usually have a good time and hope every around me is having fun too. People sometimes take this as trying to be the life of the party, but it's just that I like to enjoy life as much as possible.
Con: I write blogs that I actually expect anyone to read and to enjoy. And if you ever talked to me about it, you would probably realize that it doesn't matter to me anyway.
