| Introduction | Hello My name is Tyler, and I’m your standard dark-maned, brown-eyed, occasionally-whiskered, fake-mohawked, hard-working, good-humored, coffee-driven, open-minded, out-spoken, laid-back, creatively-compelled, pressure-thriving, non-religious, film-fanatical, excessively-curious, formality-loathing, obnoxiously-enthusiastic, somewhat-sarcastic, Irish/English/Ukrainian post-teen super-nerd. I'm also aware of my cheesiness, along with the borderline egotism, along with the egotism involved in using words like "egotism," and even like all three of these qualities a little. |
| Interests | Thunderstorms, adventures, absurdity, the crispy cheese at the bottom of the pan, idiosyncratic interests, graphic design, Trigger Happy TV, Stumbleupon, Barnes and Noble, microcosms, field games, board games, new ideas, divine inspiration, clean slates, accordion music, catharsis, the night air, learning, change, contrast, the Apache dance, cloud computing, google, Magic: The Gathering, dorm room rave parties, fat fonts, laughing till I get an ab workout, life, being generic, being ironic, making my profile too long. |

Most likely everything except my laptop and my brain.
