I am, truly, very ordinary. Average build. Medium-dark-brown hair and eyes. Not terribly tall, attractive or athletic. Not all that funny or charming. Came from a working-class family in a medium-sized Rust Belt city. No true gifts that I didn’t acquire through total immersion, sweat equity and repetition until quasi-mastery. I am your standard American dude-bro. In fact, my only superpower is self-sabotage.
