The self-descriptions people use these days are so ludicrous it's hard to tell if it's satire. If I had a Medium account, here's how my description would read:

The self-descriptions people use these days are so ludicrous it's hard to tell if it's satire. If I had a Medium account, here's how my description would read:
"Software Engineer, Philanthropist, Astronaut, Shark Hunter, Breaker of Chains, Lord Commander of the Snack Bin, Protector of the Repo, and Part-time Cat Dad"
Too much or just right?
- maxxxxx 10y agoAdd some beer brewing or artisan mustard, also "Educator". Makes you more well-rounded. "Philantropist" is always good.
- stevehiehn 10y ago"artisan mustard" lol
- RobertKerans 10y ago"Software Astronaut" maybe? I'd go for "Teacher" (just a little bit more gnomic than "Educator"), and put it before "Philanthropist", all segues nicely from "I'm a serious adidactic genius" to "but I've got a fun side"
- ternaryoperator 10y ago"former philanthropist" would give it a kind of edgy feel
- gnuvince 10y ago"I went backrupt philanthropying, that's how much I care!"
- david-given 10y ago'Part-time Cat Dad' doesn't sound plausible to me --- everyone knows that owning a cat is a full time job. And as for 'Protector of the Repo'... basically what you're saying is that you're a repo man?
- djKianoosh 10y agopart time cat dad is totally plausible. my wife has three cats.
- rsp1984 10y agoDon't forget "Father of 5 Children and 8 Bastards, Environmental Activist, Feminist, Intellectual, Playing 10 Instruments and Speaking 20 Languages, More Wifes than King Solomon"
- georgiecasey 10y agostoryteller that seems to be really hot right now
- alanaut 10y agoCross Pollinator as well. Just take a look at any Design Thinking agency.
- norea-armozel 10y agoPart-time Cat Dad. I love you! That's just perfect.
