"Hi! My name&amp;#x27;s Matt, I write this web show called duder and I used to live with Ryan in this ridiculous-basement-place in South Williamsburg, Brooklyn. We found Ryan on Craigslist after one of my roommates left, and he rather impressively beat out an applicant pool of more than 50 particularly eclectic individuals, even by New York standards. Yeah, I remember this one super-interesting guy who patented this light-bulb-thing that was about to revolutionize the lives of optometrists. Seriously, we talked for like an hour, but in the end we still chose Dodge! What was his edge? Our VERY humble home. Note the exposed pipes, tiny window and crappy Ikea couch. I&amp;#x27;m happy to note that Ryan and I have both moved on to bigger and better things.Well, I never told Ryan this, but mostly we gave him the place because I thought he was cute... I&amp;#x27;m completely embarrassed about this, of course. Firstly &amp;#x27;cause it perpetuates that nasty-false stereotype about gays that we&amp;#x27;re all hornballs, incapable of monogamy, simply going through life finding Craigslist roommates based solely on their pecs. But in all seriousness, whoa, what does this say about me, about where I was in my life at that particular moment in time? I had just moved to New York, and the jury sequestered in my brain had finally reached a verdict after 23 years: we find the defendant gay on all counts. Honestly, I don&amp;#x27;t know what took them so long, the evidence was pretty damning: I was a witch (not a warlock) for Halloween from age 8-11, I own more than one pair of capri pants, etc. All I can say in my defense, your honor, is that the power of denial is scarily awesome. Phew, so that&amp;#x27;s probably the most superficial thing I ever did, and it worked out OK. What&amp;#x27;s the most superficial thing you&amp;#x27;ve ever done? Come on, we&amp;#x27;re all friends here."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
