Tom Simmons, also known as Gravecat: Paranoid, neurotic, misanthropic, pessimistic, cynical, eloquent, alcoholic, vitriolic, acerbic, and would-be future creator of the world’s largest paperclip sculpture. My goals in life include world domination, buying a really cool hat, and figuring out a way to travel back in time in order to warn myself to not eat that potato salad. 28 and pitifully clinging to the “20-something” monicker, living alone sans a family of dust bunnies and various cultures of mold growing in unwashed mugs, and hopelessly addicted to the dream of someday exceeding the boundaries of reality and becoming a demented genius of a mad scientist.

In short, I’m pretty much like any other guy you’re likely to meet on the internet.

I like video games, sci-fi and action movies, electronics, programming, photography, philosophy, cats, clove cigarettes, industrial music and power metal, tea, ninjas, salted peanuts, chicks with glasses, and just about anything from the 80s (with the notable exceptions of the fashion and hairstyles). I dislike children, dogs, hot weather, crowded places, ice, death, blatant stupidity, and just about anything from the 90s (again, with the notable exception being the 90s era video games).

This blog is somewhat of a conglomerate — a smörgåsbord, if you will — of my various interests, rants, ramblings, and general thoughts on life in general. In the past, I’ve attempted to make more specific, themed blogs, but my constantly-shifting focus and esoteric interests made such an endeavour impractical at best. So here you have it, a summary of all that is me, a medley of interests under an arrogantly self-titled blog.
