About Equinox of Insanity

About the Author

Hi, my name is Nima Yousefi, and this is my frickin’ sweet website. Once upon a time I was a scientist — part molecular biologist and part protein biochemist, I guess — as well as a Windows network administrating IT guy (which sucked), but now mostly I sit around and think about stuff. I think I’m pretty good at sitting around and thinking about stuff, though I haven’t quite thought up how to earn a living doing that, which might prove to be a problem in the long term. I may need to think about that…

I like movies, TV, mocking anti-evolution propaganda, computers (specifically Macs), geeky things in general, tasty treats, writing, and boobies. Not necessarily in that order. I generally write on those topics, as well as post links to things I think are funny. FYI, I have the maturity level of a 3rd grader, but the biceps of a 7th grader.

I grew up in the Bay Area, so I say “hella” a lot, and currently reside in sunny San Diego.

Amazingly, I’ve written three 50,000 word novels as part of NaNoWriMo, so clearly, I have no social life. Two of the novels weren’t half bad, though.

By default, I hate people, places, and things. I only waiver from my anti-noun stance when struck by a roundhouse kick of awesomeness.

I’m the kind of guy you’d see at a Round Table Pizza and think to yourself, “Gee, they really will let anyone in here…” But you’ll never see me at a Round Table Pizza, because I prefer Mountain Mike’s.

I can be reached at nima@equinox-of-insanity.com, so if you got something to say let me have it.

About the Site

Equinox of Insanity.com (EoI) was conceived in January of 2007, and realized in February of 2007 as a once-a-week comedy blog. It became apparently very quickly that I’m not really funny, nor capable of thinking up enough funny articles to last more than a few weeks, and so EoI has become more of a standard personal blog, though grossly impersonal.

It’s powered by WordPress, which as far as I’m concerned is the best thing since boobies. The site’s appearance was made entirely by me, which is why it looks so screwed up. All coding is done on an Apple Mac Pro, via the wonderful TextMate, and the graphics are made with Photoshop CS3. Please don’t hold my crappy workmanship against any of those fine software products.

EoI is a not for profit site, so that means no advertisements, and none of my links will ever be of the “referral” kind. I do, however, reserve the right to shill for my friends, which I do every chance I get.
