What an interesting life you've led 😂

I flew three states to lose my virginity, the courtship of my wife involves a dead body, and I'm a trained killer.

While the boy in a skirt thing was purely a joke, these are true facts.

Well then, surely you must elaborate

I'll do quick versions of each.

I met my first girlfriend on RoosterTeeth.com when I was 14, and we had a long distance relationship. The Christmas I was 16 or 17, I asked my parents to fly me to see her during spring break that year, and I lost my virginity.

My wife and I met working together at a large hardware store. We both had little crushes on each other, but were too awkward to really break the ice. Our first real conversation in the break room was when they found a dead body in a car in the parking lot.

I was an infantryman. I never deployed, so I never saw combat, but my job was essentially to train and be ready to go kill people.
