Music: Musical preference is not nearly as much of a value to me today in finding a match as it was when I was a teenager. I truly do enjoy sounds from across multiple genres.
I could list several artists I've loved over the years, but I'd rather allow something to make for conversation. As long as you don't live and die for thrash metal or hardcore gangsta rap...your musical preferences are not a deal-breaker or deal-maker.

Most of my favorites lie within the realms of electronic, industrial, breakbeat, trance, chillout, classic rock, 80's, 90's alternative and a little hip-hop

...glad the work week is over. ;)

I mix up my Friday activities out, throwing an occasional "watch Netflix at home" night in there from time to time.

I'm not really all that crazy about bacon. But hey, it sure earns me some popularity points. - "Want my bacon?"

Similarly, I quickly warm up to those who offer their pickles.
