About
I’m an egotistical bastard and love it when people talk about me. Wait, let me rephrase that. I love it when people say nice things about me, like how awesome I am. However, I’ve always found it difficult to sit down and write something that sums up who I am. I could leave it at I’m an egotistical bastard, but that would only sum up about half of me. The other half is actually quite nice once you get to know it.
Part of this I’m going to write myself, the other part I’m making other people write, and that way, hopefully, you’ll be able to get a better picture of who I am.
My name is Josh. I’m old enough to drink, buy lottery tickets, buy porn, and generally do my own business. I’m sarcastic, witty, intelligent (really, I’m not just being an egotistical asshole here), funny (hilarious actually), perverted, kind, compassionate, caring, openminded, laidback, and ridiculously liberal. I don’t often talk politics on my blog because sometimes even my beliefs seem too liberal for me. But that’s okay, really.
Five years ago, I came out as Transgender. I was born female, but through the magic of hormones and expensive surgeries, I will eventually become physically male. Ask any of my friends and they will tell you that I’m a dude; I act like one, I think like one, I’m an asshole like one, and with the exception of boobies, I look like one.
I care, genuinely, about people. It’s one of the good things about me, it’s also one of the bad. Because of this, I often obsess over things happening in Africa, like poverty, hunger, the AIDS epedemic, and genocide. But Africa isn’t the only place that these things are happening and I’m well aware of that. I’m also a supporter of GLBT rights, minority rights, and any other rights you can think of. I believe that all people are equal, no matter how much money they make, who they love, who they have sex with, what color their skin is, what country they come from, what religion they practice, and what drugs they decide to put into their body.
Some causes that I support regularly:
I know I’m forgetting a lot of the ones I support, but I’ll add them as I think of them.
I’m currently a vegetarian but I’m slowly moving towards being vegan. This is mostly for health reasons so I won’t get offended if you order a massive, rare steak if we were to ever go to dinner together. However, I do think red meat is especially gross, but if you want to eat, go right ahead. I won’t judge you. My favorite foods, surprisingly, are chocolate soy milk, bananas, apples, carrots, granola, and natural organic chunky peanut butter. That might sound odd since about a year ago I would have said lasagna, cheetos, soda, french fries, chicken nuggets, and hamburgers.

I’m sick of writing about myself, mostly because I can’t think of anything else to write. So here are some things that other people have to say about me.
Mandy says…
- You’re super nice. You’re willing to help anyone with anything, no questions asked. You’re always helping your sisters with their homework, trying to help me with whatever its is that I inevitably need help with, even your ex-girlfriends power point presentations. You’re also super nice by understanding me, not pressuring me, and you’re supportive of the decisions I make. You also lie to me and tell me my ass doesn’t look fat, even when it does, and that’s sweet.
- You have a great sense of humor. You’re not only funny, but you also find humor in things that not everyone else does. I mean, it takes an intelligent mind to find borat, Monty python, and Jon Stewart all funny.
- Your intelligent mind. You know all sorts of stuff about all sorts of stuff: Computers, science, politics, music, etc. You’re one of the smartest people I know.
- Your social conscience. You know, truly know, facts about darfur, the environment, politicians, etc. Most people barely know anything about these. You’re a unapologetically a crazy liberal, and its awesome that you have such strong convictions.
- You’re incredibly strong. You’ve been through more than most people, faced your problems with stoicism, and have come out all right in the end. You can rely on yourself, maybe too much, but that’s something most people can’t do. I know that I go running to someone the second anything goes wrong. You’re so brave to speak out the truth about yourself.
And that’s it for now because I’m too lazy to go through more e-mails…
