Links and images were used in all posts with exception to three. My style is rather straight forward (with exception to my use of parenthesis and understatements.) My alias was chosen because I secretly am Cobra Commander and spend every waking hour outside of class trying to get GI Joe. As for a subject, I initially chose ethics until I realized ethics are opinions and I only care about my one. Since then I have dabbled in politics, style and media watching.
