Books: 1984, The Millennium trilogy, The Lord of the Rings series,
Harry Potter, and anything by Dean Koontz, Chuck Palahniuk, or Ray
Bradbury. I also enjoy comics and graphic novels such as: Calvin
and Hobbes, Garfield, The Far Side, Watchmen, Sin City, and The
Walking Dead.
Movies: Back to the Future, Mrs. Doubtfire, Fargo, Road To
Perdition, American Beauty, Children of Men, Gangs of New York,
Garden State, Snatch, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,
Indiana Jones, Ip Man, Spinal Tap, Super Size Me, and anything by
Wes Anderson or Quentin Tarantino. I'm also a fan of mindless,
raunchy comedies like Step Brothers, Grandma's Boy, and Pineapple
Express. I won't turn down a classic, nostalgia-inducing movie from
my childhood either: Home Alone, The Sandlot, The 3 Ninjas, Toy
Story, Heavyweights (Tony Perkis is my hero), Beethoven, Space Jam,
etc...

Dexter, Boy Meets World, Freaks and Geeks, The Wonder Years, Lost,
Jackass, Portlandia, Arrested Development, Man vs. Wild,
Workaholics, King of the Hill, Metalocalypse, Scrubs, and anything
on Food Network that doesn't feature Guy Fieri. He can take his
spiky bleached hair and tacky accessories and shove them where the
sun don't shine.
Music: mainly alternative rock and it's many sub-genres such as:
math, indie, post, and noise. I also like some metal, hip hop,
post-hardcore, post-punk, and jazz. Some favorite artists include:

Stone Age, Kurt Vile, Morning Teleportation, Neil Young, Surfer
Blood, TV on the Radio, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
Food: Comfort food! Grilled cheese sandwiches, good soup, lasagna,
red velvet cake, pizza, burgers, and artisan bread with butter.
Despite all that junk up there, I do eat healthy! I drink a green
smoothie every day (spinach, kale, bananas, apples, berries, flax
seed oil, orange juice, and honey blended together. Yum!)
Video games: Mainly RPGs, 3rd person adventure/stealth games,
survival-horror games, and first-person shooters. Favorites
include: Skyrim, Final Fantasy 7, Lost Odyssey, Dead Island, Red
Dead Redemption, LA Noire, The Uncharted series, Metal Gear Solid
series, Splinter Cell series, Mass Effect series, Halo (CE through
3, ODST and Reach sucked), Call of Duty, Resident Evil 4,
Condemned: Criminal Origins, and Mario Kart, of course.
