I'm a software developer so my tricks are mostly technical...

I like to tinker on computers and my OS of choice is Linux.. of all sorts of flavors.
I could code in C++, Java, C#, Python, PHP, HTML/CSS (don't expect things to look pretty.. I'm not a graphics person )

*I have unimaginable patience when dealing with others.
*I can teach you almost anything once I know it, and you WILL learn it by the time I am done.
*I know that truly good leaders need to also know how to be truly good followers, and I can do both.
*I am one of the best untrained cooks you know, be it dinner for two or a five-course feast for 100+ people.
*I can usually diagnose Aspergers Syndrome within five minutes of meeting someone.
*I have highly acidic skin, meaning I burn through my clothes, glasses, and sheets at an alarming rate.
*I am a hyper-empath with a seemingly ridiculously high number of mirror neurons. This means I am very good at understanding others, and I can learn almost any physical skill by watching someone else do it, but I also feel very real physical pain when I see a person get injured.

i wrote this for mr taso ...

class isRad {
int x;
public:
int figureItOut(int);
};

int isRad::figureItOut (int a) {
x = a;

if (x == 0)
return 0;
else
return 1;

main()
{
int nancy = 0;
int notNancy = 1;

isRad rad;

if (rad.figureItOut(nancy) == 0)
cout << "this person should make you hot.";
else
cout << "this person blows!";
}


(and yes, i know i didn't have to call another function to get that answer, but i wanted to write a ridiculous class. so sue me.)
