Hey, I'm Thorri and I come from Finland. I was born in 1988. I'm interested in languages (English is my passion), chatting, writing to message boards, etc. Currently I'm not creating new articles but instead expanding old ones. I'm also trying my proofreading skills.
I'm writing a book about a very controversial subject...I have to admit, I enjoy stirring things up and a good argument. I hope to get it finished by the end of next year or at least 2007.
I'd like to learn many, many, many languages. Currently I'm interested in Attic Greek. I also want to improve my Danish.
What comes to pop culture, here are my likes...
TV: Reality television, more specifically Survivor, The Amazing Race and The Apprentice.
Music: Genres: pop, techno, r&b. Artists et bands: Alanis Morissette, Kylie Minogue, Green Day, Good Charlotte, ABBA, etc.
Movies: Zoolander, all of the Star Trek movies, ditto Star Wars, Charlie's Angels, There's Something About Mary, etc.
Literature: Authors: William Shakespeare and Dan Brown. Books: all of Shakespeare's works (that I've read so far), The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons.
Warning: some people might get offended by the following paragraph.
And, finally, I am a very proud homosexual. My political views are extremely Liberal and I oppose all sorts of racism, homophobia, religious zealots and conservatives. We all are descendants of about 2000 people who lived c. 200,000 years ago. Therefore I believe that we all are equal and should accept each other. I am not a religious person, and personally believe the Bible, Qur'an and all the other so-called holy books (notice lower-case letters) to be mere fairy tales and fantasies of Human supremacy over the Universe, world, nature and animals. However, I am not a complete Atheist. My beliefs lean more to the Agnostic side.
IP
My IP is 217.140.246.28. It can give an idea what I did before I registered plus I still contribute anonymously sometimes but that's when I'm too lazy to log in or when I explore Wikipedia and find stuff that need to be corrected, etc.
