overly used design technique of phonetic spelling - as some lol's.

I recently was looking for a new housing situation and many recommendations later, I turned to craigslist. I came to realize a bunch of things I never thought i'd have to explain about myself. In a brief paragraph I had to convince a complete internet stranger to live with me. The more I sent the more I realized about myself. The last thing I thought craigslist would get out of me was a sense of self actualization - but alas I figured out a couple things i'd like to share.
- I can't live with a person who rejects the smell of bacon.
- I love to cook but in reality I just like to feed people. It's like that saying about a tree falling in the forrest "if no one tastes my food, did it really taste that good?" (PSA for taste-vision on Instagram).
- Another thing I learned was my deep appreciation for books, specifically books centered around an apocalyptic, girl powered, kick ass teenager. So basically if anything ever happened to planet earth - I got you.
I know the "about" section of someones professional portfolio website shouldn't sound like a personal ad on craigslist but when you sign up to work with someone, isn't it basically just that? I don't care how unbelievable that campaign was with Nike, or the tv spot you did for Time Warner Cable - if working with you is like eating a ton of bricks and then trying to build a castle with digested concrete, i'm not your girl.
So let's kumbaya and make cool shit.
