Just who IS this guy?
F-Lock'd!
Sorry folks, but this journal is Friends-Only. Take a peek under the cut for what actually goes on here.
First off, the golden rule: I don't return unsolicited friends requests. Nothing personal, but I need a reason to read your journal. Even if you just say "Dude, you seem cool, can I add you?" before doing so is cool with me, and obvs if we met through a friending meme then its all good. Otherwise finding out somebody random from IDEK, Texas (/London/Brazil/Canada etc) has started following me on here with no warning just creeps me out. In fact, if you have stumbled across me here and wanna add me then feel free to comment below.
Anyway, time for the introdump.
