Hello, Handsome.


I am your host, Noodles and Beef, and welcome to my blog. It's my creative dumping ground and journal. I post work from my photo projects, sketches from my notepad, and infographics from my research. Sometimes I write about personal stuff but more often I post photos of my butt.

I'm a single, gay, 25-year-old who lives in San Francisco, and I do UX for a living. Your hair looks amazing today.

Anyway, thanks for reading my blog, I hope you enjoy it!

I find it hard to believe that you only weighed 140lbs at one point, you're even more impressive/astounding in that light!

You think that’s hard to believe?

I was 140lbs six years ago, but my actual starting weight was 10lbs 4oz!

Have you ever done anything harsh or dangerous to your body to get in the shape you are? E.g. steroids or bulimia?
shudyn

Nothing dangerous like that.

But, I traded a few years of my life to a traveling shaman to give me a huge penis…a curse I regret to this day, and the reason I am single.

Do you think anal bleaching is a good idea? Have you ever done it?
Anonymous

Yes, but I’m worried my roots will show.

What were you like in High School?

Here’s an article the school news paper wrote about me:

Have you ever slept with a woman? If you have, does she know that you're gay now and how did she take the news?
ruahunter

Nope.

Not only have I never slept with a woman, but I was a caesarean section birth, so I’ve never even touched a vagina.  

That’s right. I’m a Double-Gold-Star Gay.

Kicking off 2012 by doing the 365 self-portrait project.  The goal is to become a better photographer and push myself creatively.  Lets hope I can keep it up, unlike 2010 when I missed 20+ photos. Special thanks to Chuck for lending me his camera. I hope I can get mine replaced soon!

If you’d like to generate your own “Best of Tumblr 2011” collage like my New Years post, you can do so here. The Best of Tumblr tool grabs all your posts and sorts them by popularity, grouped by year and month.  It can take a few minutes to load everything if you’re a prolific blogger, but the result is a pretty, reverse-calendar of your tumblr.  The most popular post is featured first, with three runner-ups that you can reveal by hovering over them. Please note: This tool does not show posts that you reblogged, only your own photos. Enjoy! Updated 1/2/2012: Added “Advanced Options” to let people see popular posts from 2012 or non-photo posts Sped-up loading Fixed the “Ghost Reblogs” bug. If you reblogged someone who later deleted their account, tumblr turns the post into a normal post, not a reblog…so it was messing up stats. Fixed a bug where the tool gives up when tumblr gives a 500 error.
