Basic Info| Name: | kohael |
|---|
BioI generally do not update these sorts of things. By this disclaimer, I hereby absolve myself of any commitment to do so implied by creating it. Handy, isn't that?
My username, kohael, is a corruption of my last name that I invented many years ago. It has essentially no significance.
As for an actual bio- what exactly does that entail? There seem to be a number of ways that I could convey information about myself, assuming that is the goal. I could simply recount the major events of my life, or at least those I find important. I could describe my early childhood, and leave you all to speculate what sort of person would result. Or I could take the opposite route, and present as accurate a portrait of myself at this moment as I could without providing any context. I could try to enumerate my various friends and relations, and my connection with each, to define myself socially. A history of my religious, political, and philosophical views might be interesting. I could cheat, and just give a purely physical description, or a census entry. Or, obviously, I could cheat by taking up as much space as possible listing ways to write a bio, and never actually writing one. Is it really cheating? After all, it is the only option I have thought of where I cannot lie to project whatever image of myself I find desirable. I am, and must necessarily be, the sort of person who would take a great deal of time and effort to write very little.
