Movies: My interests are varied. I like indie flicks,
documentaries, foreign films, anything that makes me think. I'm not
into action flicks - anything Michael Bay I can do without. Of
course I enjoy the classics - Star Wars, Star Trek, Indiana
Jones... who doesn't? Some favorites - Amelie, Run Lola Run, The
Muppet Movie, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, UHF, Eternal Sunshine of the
Spotless Mind, The Royal Tennenbaums (anything Wes Anderson,
really), Clue, Little Miss Sunshine, Empire Records.
TV: Apparently some people still watch things on cable at the time
at which they are being shown - I didn't know that was still a
thing. If it's not on the interwebs somewhere, I probably don't
watch it. I like The Office, 30 Rock (NBC - Y U CANCEL?!?!), Parks
and Rec, Modern Family, Home Movies, Archer, It's Always Sunny In
Philadelphia, Doctor Who.
Music: Death Cab for Cutie, Postal Service, Silversun Pickups,
Arcade Fire, Ghostland Observatory, The Shins, The Decemberists,
Shout Out Louds, LCD Soundsystem, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Bloc
Party, Go! Team, Fitz and The Tantrums, Cut Copy, Cake, crappy 80's
music, just about anything played by John Richards on KEXP
Books: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Phantom Tollbooth,
anything by David Sedaris, Kurt Vonnegut or Malcolm Gladwell.
Performing arts: stand-up comedy, improv, theatre, musicals, the
opera, the ballet, the symphony
Food: sushi, ethiopian food, anything spicy, I'll try just about
anything once...
Podcasts: This American Life, Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!, Radiolab,
Savage Love, The Moth, WTF
