Constructions of Interest

Christopher McMahon

I go to the University of Manchester
Study Politics and Modern History
Secularism, rants and plenty of history nerd goodness is what you can expect.
I like to think I read a lot. Vonnegut is very possibly my favourite author. Other favourites include Poe, Dante, Orwell, Conrad, Stoker, Lovecraft, Hemingway, Hitchens. If you like any of these guys we'll probably get along.
I'm not all book nerd, I have a keen interest in gaming. Mass Effect, the Total War series and Metal Gear Solid are pretty much the only games I need though.
Lord of the Rings is a pretty big part of my life.

My list of pet peeves:
War
Organised Religion
Ad hominem
Animal cruelty
Astrology
Alternative medicine
Liquorice (mainly liquorice above all others)

*Disclaimer: I tend to moan about these things a lot. So don't follow me and then send me anons complaining that it's all I talk about.

Ask me anything

I tool History, Chemistry, Physics and Maths and got ACCD. I was terrible at Maths. Well, core 2. I did well in core 1 and statistics but I got a U at core 2 and refused to re sit it.
