I'm Patrick; no relation to the starfish.
I am very short.
I am a pessimist.
I like Japan in the '70s, John Cassavetes and rye toast.
You can talk to me, I'm a good listener.

as the wisdom runs
a boy should know his limitations
but I've talked myself through less
can I be your future pest
'cause if that is what you need
a sycophantic boy like me
who'll tell you things
you really don't need
oh joy, I'm your boy
and it feels good to me
don't fear, superboy is here
and it feels good to me
