I seem to really enjoy most music, ranging from post rock to
country, hip hop, or pop. Some favorite artists or bands include
Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Kanye West, The White Stripes, Lupe
Fiasco, Streetlight Manifesto, Fleet Foxes, The National, The World
Inferno Friendship Society, and Fun.. I'll try listening to just
about any band or genre. I've recently been listening to more
country music.
Overall, I appreciate absurd and well written comedies, or
dystopian novels. My favorite books include A Confederacy of
Dunces, Slaughterhouse Five, Cat's Cradle, A Clockwork Orange, and
Brave New World. I've recently been reading the Millennium Trilogy,
as well as some nonfiction, especially regarding politics. I'm
currently reading Moral Politics, by George Lakoff.
Some of favorite movies include Little Miss Sunshine, Eternal
Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Dr. Strangelove, The Royal
Tenenbaums, and I Love You, Man. As far as dramas or action movies
are concerned, Children of Men The Social Network, and Goodbye Solo
are some of my favorites. More recently, I really enjoyed the Tree
of Life, Like Crazy, 50/50, Drive, The Descendants, and Moneyball.
Aaron Sorkin is one of my favorite writers, while Darren Aronofsky
and Jason Reitman are two of my favorite directors.
My favorite tv shows include 30 Rock, Community, Parks and
Recreation, Archer, The League, and Modern Family. When I watch TV,
I'm watching a specific show or a sports game. My favorite shows
off the air include The West Wing, Arrested Development, and Friday
Night Lights.
My favorite meal is a nice medium rare steak.
