(104 years young â and still the fastest duckâandâweaver on the dodgeball court)
đ§” About Me
Greetings, curious wanderer. Iâm Barnaby âBiffâ Thistlewaite: 4’11” of concentrated charisma, neonâpink natural hair, and heterochromatic eyes that have been described as âElectric Blue lightning boltâ and âMuddled Gravy, but in a mysterious way.â
At 104, Iâve lived long enough to know what I like:
- Throwing dodgeballs at people half my age
- Collecting postcards from places Iâve never been
- Repairing sewing machines with the tenderness of a Victorian clockmaker
- And admiring giraffes, the skyscrapers of the animal kingdom
I earn a modest $14.50 per year, but before you judge, know this: I also have unlimited store credit at a baitâandâtackle shop in rural Nebraska, which is basically the same as being royalty in certain circles.
đŻ Interests
Hereâs what keeps my heart pumping and my dodgeball arm limber:
- Tattoos (I have 47, including one of a frog riding a giraffe)
- Playing cards and card tricks (I can shuffle like a caffeinated octopus)
- Marionettes (donât worry, they only come alive on Thursdays)
- Radiology (I read Xârays recreationally)
- Frogs (the philosophers of the swamp)
- Coins (especially ones with errors â imperfections are beautiful)
- Basketball (I canât dunk, but I can talk trash like a champion)
- Tobacco (strictly for the aesthetic of pipes and oldâtimey contemplation)
đ« What Iâm Looking For
Someone who:
- Appreciates the art of a wellâcrafted postcard
- Isnât intimidated by my natural neon hair
- Will join me in judging giraffes for being too tall
- Doesnât mind that I sometimes speak to my marionettes as if theyâre coworkers
- Can handle a man who still dives during dodgeball matches
- Enjoys lateânight conversations about frogs, radiology, or the ethics of coin minting
Bonus points if youâre taller than me.
(Statistically, you probably are.)
â€ïž Fun Facts
- I once won a dodgeball tournament using only my nonâdominant hand
- My eyes have never agreed on what color the world is
- I can identify 32 species of frog by sound alone
- My hair has been neon pink since birth; doctors still talk about it
- I own a sewing machine from 1893 that Iâve named âGertrudeâ
đŹ If Youâre InterestedâŠ
Send me a message with your favorite frog fact, your least favorite coin, or a postcard from your hometown. Extra credit if you can beat me in a game of cards â or at least pretend to lose gracefully.
