What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?

Science ((equine) biology), Gaming (Mass Effect). New to nerdfightaria, keen to help decrease worldsuck!

About Me:

Im 17 years old, and tend to be fairly relaxed about society, politics, and everything else in general, i know the live and let live attitude may clash with the socially and politically active environment here, but ive been inspired by you guys to take a stand on issues i care about. I find the liberal/conservative view of politics disturbing, as i have views considered strongly liberal and a few that i share with conservatives. For example, i guess im a liberal when it comes to society, that the rich should do more to help, as once you're making hundreds of thousands of pounds you dont need ANY more money, give the rest away. I hate guns, i hate the wars we're involved in. I dont hate war though, sometimes military stuff is necessary. But it hasnt been really necessary for 70 years or so. Afghanistan is a tragedy caused by morons on both sides of the atlantic. But i do support the conservative party over in england (i hate the republicans over in the states tho, they scare me. the conservatives are pretty much in the middle). I believe we do need deep cuts to public sector wages, public services etc, and i HATE government involvement in day to day life such as the Health&Safety so beloved of liberals over here.
My only real hobby is riding and horse care, and im currently studying equine care, biology and riding at A-level equivalent education. Always been into biology so hoping to press on down that route and go into some kind of research area if i can. That way i might make some small difference to the world.
When im not at the stables im generally gaming. Mass Effect is my personal addiction, the only scifi world that really grips me. Ive always loved reading and read hundreds of books through my childhood and early teens, but barely read anything for a year or so. I may have to pick up a copy of one of John's books to get back into reading. Never been a big tv fan, its too undemanding.

Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more

Books - Gates of Fire, His Dark Material's Trilogy
Movies - Hot Fuzz, Inbetweeners Movie
Music - We Are The In Crowd, Yellowcard, Green Day, Rogue Dubstep, Devlin, Professor Green,
