- Name: I am impelled to remind the public that jalapenos do, in fact, exist, despite what the Anti-Jalapeno Conspiracy would have us all believe. The fact that there is no Wikipedia article on this conspiracy is proof of the conspiracy's all-powerful influence.
- Views on Wikipedia: I am a wikicynic. Once the soapboxing and trolling are discarded, 30%-70% of the discourse here is bullshit, namely, speech intended not to express one's opinions and motivations but to cloak or decorate them. This is a somewhat higher figure than what I encounter in real life, but then I may live in a bubble.
- Views on userpages: I have nothing against userboxes. Some of my best friends are userboxes. I just don't want them hanging around my userpage, that's all.
- My behavior: I try not to be an asshole toward people who are not themselves assholes. If you are not an asshole and I have been an asshole toward you, you either caught me on a bad day, in which case I sincerely apologize, or you actually are an asshole but don't know it yet. Or, I'm an asshole and don't know it yet, in which case-- well, sorry.
- About me: I am an adult and have been so for some years now, though this is disputed.
- Things I hate: people who say "the Wikipedia".
