Latest Journal Entry: tornado chasing June 12, 2008, 06:54pm
Profile: my name is Shawn. but i also go by Sage or Nydus. i live in Minnesota, in the twin cities metro area. i currently live with my folks and my twin brother, but im planning to move out as soon as i can. we got a dog, 2 birds, 2 turtles, some fish and a rabbit. were a freaking zoo. for the myspace, the URL is down below. for the facebook look up Shawn Swanson in my area. Apathy is a big part of who i am. i do what i want. if i feel like just sitting, thats what im gonna do. if you want to talk thats cool. in fact i welcome it, as im very often bored. if you wanna judge me, fine. everyone judges everyone. its your opinion, and opinions dont matter that much. unless its comes from some you care about. if you wanna insult me or downrate me, go ahead. i dont care about my rating. i know who i am. Im an open minded person. I try to do as much good as i can. Ill hear what you have to say, if your willing to hear me out too. Im willing to try and understand where you stand, your point of view, If your willing to hear me and understand mine. recently i do feel more and more like Angel, just sitting in the dark and brooding...its how i got the name from the few friends i have. Thats not a plea for attention, just the truth. i brood, but im not looking for sympathy. im not looking for a shoulder to cry on. im just looking for some peace. im always willing to talk to people. contact me any way you like. just no weird creepy phone calls.
PHILOSOPHIES: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." Albert Einstein "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts." Bertrand Russell "The hardest thing in this world is to live in it." "...But I did get time to think. About us, about the world. Nothing in the world is the way it ought to be. It's harsh, and cruel. But that's why there's us. Champions. It doesn't matter where we come from, what we've done or suffered, or even if we make a difference. We live as though the world were as it should be, to show it what it can be..." Angel. Season 4, episode 1. "In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law. To pursue... natural justice. This is not vengeance. Revenge is not a valid motive, it's an emotional response. No. Not vengeance. Punishment." -Frank Castle, A.K.A. Punisher, 2004 "The very fact that you feel you have learned all you need to know only further proves that you have not." "To acquire knowledge, one must study; but to acquire wisdom, one must observe." Marilyn vos Savant "Fighting for good is the reward. Those who are truely heroic do not need a reward to be heroic. Fighting for good is the reward. Thats the big prize at the end of the maze. To know you've saved some one, to know you've righted a wrong. To make the world a better place, for the greater good. Even if it kills you." "You never know your strength until you're tested." -Angel KATE: I just couldn't... My whole life has been about being a cop. If I'm not part of the force it's like nothing I do means anything. ANGEL: It doesn't. KATE: Doesn't what? ANGEL: Mean anything. In the greater scheme or the big picture, nothing we do matters. There's no grand plan, no big win. KATE: You seem kind of chipper about that. ANGEL: Well, I guess I kinda worked it out. If there is no great glorious end to all this, if nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do. 'cause that's all there is. What we do, now, today. - I fought for so long. For redemption, for a reward, finally just to beat the other guy, but... I never got it. KATE: And now you do? ANGEL: Not all of it. All I wanna do is help. I wanna help because I don't think people should suffer, as they do. Because, if there is no bigger meaning, then the smallest act of kindness is the greatest thing in the world. WESLEY: And I'd love a cup of coffee. ANGEL: (laughing) That's, that's very funny. (Wesley shuts the office door) CORDELIA: Two sugars in mine. GUNN: Mocha cappuccino here. (Both of them walk off) ANGEL: Man. Atonement's a bitch. Immanuel Kant believed that it is not possible to judge the moral goodness of an act by its consequences. Someone may do something with good consequences, but their motivations may be completely bad and self-serving. Furthermore, an individual can have the very best intentions, and the consequences may not come out the way she intended at all. It therefore makes no sense to praise or blame someone for something (consequences) they could not completely control. On the other hand, what they intend is completely within their control. Hence, moral praise or blame cannot be placed on the actual consequences of actions, but on what the person intended.

The Martial Arts...specifically Jeet Kune Do, Tai Chi, Krav Maga, Marines Training, Kedno, REAL karate and the 7+ forms of lightsaber combat. when ever i practice with my bokken, i usually go for a combo of Makashi, Sorensu, and Shien/Djem So with an influence from jeet kune do and Tai Chi...cause those are the martial arts im somewhat trained in. and im always open to learning more from whatever "style" weapons of all kinds, all i have though are bokkens, stakes, staves, an army knife, and a hatchet. taking pictures. ive got a Deviant video games, mainly Counter-strike, Jedi Academy, Starcraft, Starcraft 2, Star Trek: Armada 2, Forza Motorsport 2, Diablo 2 and now 3, American McGees Alice, Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, and Star Wars: Force Unleashed science fiction in general my Batmobile. a customized "gothic" 1982 Lincoln Town Car Cartier.

So im very into anything Irish. the idea of chivalry and honor. its a rarity. horror, sci-fi and action movies random violence is funny. example from Family Guy: thinking grenades... loyal friends. friends who you can and will make random visits just to chill or see you. who arent posing so they feel better about themselves. who are honest, who will cover your back and are their when you need them. i get along with girls more then i do guys most of the time. i dont know why. maybe its cause girls are more passive in general? most guys come off to me has hormonal windbags... Posers strutting their stuff and how 'cool' they are. i dont particularity care if im "on the in crowd" or if im "cool". i know im "cool" because i stay true to my own sense of integrity. i heart bread i dont mind cult invites. its how i explore the cults here on VF and how i found the one im Co-Owner of. anything Victorian is pretty looking :P Buffy tVS & Angel the series. its brilliant. and sadly i can quote it like some robot who uses TV shows as his way of speaking. its pathetic and possibly annoying to others, just FYI. the full moons light on a warm autumn night, while the clouds are just wisps. and everything is covered in a soft glow after a rain storm, a breeze blowing slightly make the leaves hiss quietly. thats amazing. Star Trek, mainly just the technology and the Star ships. and the Borg. thats right. im a geek. and i love it. family guy is hilarious. so is That 70's Show Military History and Science. Stargate Mythbusters is great. thats my dream job the series Jericho. makes you think. What do you do IF something like that scenario happens? History Channel. pretty interesting stuff Discovery channel. though less than the His. Ghost Hunters and Ghost Hunters International. I love the show Becker. Its amazingly hilarious. He's so much like Will (best friend) its ridiculous the Fall. its got a great ambiance to it. especially the aforementioned circumstances and also the days leading up to and just after Halloween Constantine & Hellblazer Lewis Black is the funniest man on earth Tim Burton the Punisher PotC trilogy lots-o-movies which are getting listed on facebook werewolves. i really like werewolves. not furries though. too cheesy. werewolves. they have to be human and then transform into a beast like state. not just a pretty looking wolf on 2 legs. thats doesnt work. underworld was ok. A.W.i.L. was really good. Van Helsing could be better. ...yeah i know im a freak. vampires are cool. what with the near indestructibility, id choose to be one in a heart beat. i prefer werewolves, but i wouldnt want to be one of them. ...im weird. Cars. my favs are the 3000GT VR-4, 1982 Lincoln Town Car Cartier (my Batmobile), Lotus Exige GT3, 1987 Toyota Supra GT Turbo A, 1966-69 Chevy Impala with a supercharged 427 V8 big block, Lambo Reventon, 1966-70 Olds Torondao, 1966-72 Olds Cutlass 442, the new Dodge Challenger and the 1970 Dodge Challenger, 1967-73 Mercury Cougar, 1972 Buick Riviera, Dodge Mangum, Chevy Suburban, a VW hippie van, and then, of course, the God of Cars, the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 the darkness. when ever im on the computer at night its pitch black in the room. rain...and possibly kissing in it...something i need to try yet though. The smell of lilac. It reminds me of home. the IDEA of America. its fundamental reasons for its creation. the constitution. not where its gone today...or whos taken it there. i dont like being lonely but i like brooding and that entails being alone ...i need help. of the few friends i have, or people id consider friends, i would take a bullet for them with out a second thought. i LOVE lightsabers. and i want one. a real one. i've even practiced the combat style set by the makers of the movie plus other random techniques into my own lightsaber style. im an idiot who needs to get a life, i know. no need to tell me. :D walkin around mound in my coat is a lot of fun. been stopped by cops a few times. -_- woot. just sitting somewhere outside and pondering on various subjects. History, Psychology, Philosophy, religion, physics, engineering ... just sitting with people and making idle conversation, passing the time. you can learn a lot that way. its not just what you know, its who you know. talking with people. makin friends. new ways of thinking introversion. being who i am. i wanna be a storm chaser, i wanna be in a band, and i wanna ghost hunt. ... and i wanna be a Jedi. ^^ Tornadoes happen ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. Dislikes: George "Wanker" BushGuys who know nothing but sex. its pathetic. Being called emo. so what?! i brood a lot. When you look at the true meaning of the word, short for emotional. everyone is. cause were all human:) when people assume you should know something and get angry if you dont greed arrogance concieded people. downraters. why would you downrate someone if you dont even know them. if you dont like them, leave them alone. its pathetic anyway. sure it lowers their score, but they still get rating points. its completely unintelligent. ego people judging by looks. "Never judge a book by its cover." having to get up in the morning being without my own computer no music is a nightmare. whats worse is bad music. daylight. i hate daylight bimbo girls like paris hilton. flaky twat... whiners. i cant stand it when someone whines not having morning coffee. i feel like im on some surreal high... Being ignored by so called "friends". If you dont want me around, tell me to my face. dont blow me off. music that all they do is scream. thats not music. music is an art. its suppose to be somewhat artistic. anyone can fuckin scream into a mic. people who hit and run with their cars. GOD how id love to beat them senseless. dictatorships our government. i dont need to explain why. if you happen to possess brain cells, you know why. my dogs storm anxiety. its annoying. shes adorable, but thats an extremely irritating flaw. she becomes uber defiant when people touch my room. i hate it when someone walks into my room and grabs something or rummages through it or cleans it. *spazs* The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Eigth Level of Hell - the Malebolge!
