NspaceO

Is there anything worse than websites that have bios written in the third person? Seriously, who sits down and writes their own bio in the third person?

"Robbin was born in Sri Lanka but quickly relocated to Sweden, as a part of a patch-your-marriage-up project. Nothing special happened during his adolescence. That was kind of the problem. After high-school, he moved to Paris to study photography. It was not an easy choice to make, and Robin thinks that Robin did very well in adapting to life in the big city. Robin also thinks that Robin did a great job evolving as a photographer during his years in France. Way to go, Robin. Not only did Robin prevail in finding a unique pictorial style, but he evolved into something that can only be compared to something godlike. At least Robin thinks so. He does not refrain from calling his own pictures his 'work', since Robin clearly looks at them and sees pure art. Robin never thought he could manage the kind of lifestyle he acquired in Paris, but he's still going strong. Robin is very proud of Robin. That's why he wrote his bio like this, casually yet firmly avoiding the amazing word "I".

Halfway through that text, you should be thinking: yeah, bla bla bla, mother fucker. Get over yourself. Soon, please.



I love that song.

You forgot the bit explaining how your long term girlfriend was killed in a car crash, and all you want is someone you can talk to and walk those late nights by the beach.
