[edit] Ryan Albrey
Ryan Albrey is, a young internet nerd, born in the 82nd year of the 20th century to proud parents Allan and Glenda. He sometimes goes by the nom de guerre ExistAngst when conducting himself on the internet.
Ryan is an Australian, originally from Perth, currently living in Kuala Lumpur where he has been since June 2006. He is working as a 3D Animator for a company that makes crappy animation products for local FTA TV. He speaks Bahasa Melayu at what you might call a conversational level.
Before that he worked at a kebab shop.
Having been raised in Perth Ryan has a perspective on the world that he never appreciated until he went out and saw a little bit more.
He thinks that bad weather is 20 degrees Celsius and a few clouds in the sky. He thinks that air pollution is the latest (insert the latest radio friendly idiot here) album. He thinks that poverty is having to settle for a medium quarter pounder meal rather then a large as he cruises through the McDonalds drive-thru in the car his father bought for him, on his way to the University education his Government paid for subsidizes a little bit. He thinks that living a "hectic life-style" means having to drag himself out of bed for an 11:30 lecture at University.
He did indeed live in a lucky city in the luckiest country on Earth but now he lives in Kuala Lumpur which is nice also.
However part and parcel of all this is that he is saddled with white-boy-middle-class guilt. That feeling that everything is a little too perfect, and that somehow this isn't fair on starving children in some god forsaken middle eastern shit-hole. This manifests itself as an ardent social conscience (no really). As a result Ryan leans to what one might term "left of center" politics.
Ryan is not religious at all. He was indoctrinated with atheism as he grew up. He grew up being told by his highly anti-establishment Mother "the Bible sure is a nice story... but the world is totally Godless. Now eat your peas and go tidy your room Ryan". This is probably no better (or no worse) then being told that Aliens made earth many thousands of years ago, flew off in their space ships, only to return thousands of years later to clone some dutch people. Religion is just plain scary for 5 year olds... no matter what you tell them. Perhaps you can sugar coat it for them a bit. Hand puppets, pleasant euphemisms and diagrams etc etc. But how do you tell a kid that the universe is without fundamental order or direction? God... fuck the kids: Ryan himself still finds it scary as all fuck.
Ryan isn't sure why this bio is being written in 3rd person. Maybe it's for all the same reasons people don't represent themselves in court... they get other people, Lawyers, to come and do it for them. It's not that the law is a complicated subject.... it's just that getting up in a court of law spruiking for yourself looks immodest.
- "Yeah your honor. I really am a top bloke hey! I didn't really steal that car! Anyway i promise i wont do it again so don't send me to jail ok?"
Much better to have a smart man in a suit standing beside you saying those things about you and your life of crime. Thats why Ryan is writing this in the 3rd person. So you won't doubt it's historical veracity.
Ryan currently has a girlfriend, the lovely and intelligent Nor Inayah Ariffin.
Is their anything else left still to say in this section? No. No Ryan doesn't think there is. He has said too much already.
[edit] Ryan And Basketball
Ryan is and exceptional basketball player. His height an obvious advantage. His Shooting ability and accuracy, to die for!
Hes extremely good when he plays against someone half his size and decides, to drive hard to the key, oblivious to anyone below his eye line, and inevitably below his foot.
No but really, i swear when Ryan plays he looks like Andrew Vlahov.
Word of warning when you encounter Ryan at a basketball court, Dont mention; A. MILO B. WILD CATS GRAND FINAL GAME
