About JonTheMan - Male, 21 and Single

Someone who, after being here for over two years, can't seem to settle on a definitive "About me" description. Does this somehow represent the deep-seated, inextricable tumultuousness of human nature? Maybe it reflects the all-pervasive personal upheavals one goes through as one goes from adolescence to adulthood. Perhaps the cause is simply the fact that I, as an individual, am just prone to change and consumed by an ongoing series of dialectics within my conflicted psyche that never seem to resolve themselves. Pfft, I dunno. Anyway, I have a great love for politics, anime, computer games and Japanese movies. I am, at least, cosmically consistent in being a nerd. Update: I've changed my tags to reflect the fact they're "tags" now, and not "areas of expertise". I've added a whole bunch of other stuff about my favourite things too.

You can't NOT like this guy. Jontheman has been on RIA for quite some time now; you'll note his style by the torrents of his extensive vocabulary punctuated by quirky informalities ("pfft, I dunno."). Gentle intelligence salted with playful wit, but when it comes to something serious he'll lay down his opinions and back it up, and still comes out polite. One of my long-time favorites.
