-I prefer mystery/suspense books, but I'm pretty open-minded. I
read for entertainment. Don't judge me. Quite a few of my friends
are the "technical manuals only" types. They judge me all of the
time. I occasionally read biographies, but it isn't a regular
thing.
-I love movies! Even the ones where the actors and actresses keep
their clothes on! It's hard to come up with only one favorite
movie. I usually tell people that my favorite movie is Clue. Some
of my other favorites are Four Rooms, Paris je t'aime, The Dirty
Dozen, Ever After, Push, and Muriel's Wedding.
**UPDATE** I just watched Apocalypse Now for the first time ever.
It has replaced The Dirty Dozen as my favorite war movie.
-I shut off my cable about 5 years ago. I watch all my tv through
netflix these days. I have watched Arrested Development twice
through. Other shows that I have watched multiple times are: The IT
crowd, Dead Like Me, Battlestar Galactica (the new one, although I
am working my way through the original), Luther, The Guild. There
are more shows I like, but I wouldn't necessarily watch them again
and again. I usually stop watching a show when the female lead gets
pregnant. It pisses me off.
-I like lots of different types of music, even country. I have a
soft place in my heart for jazz (Miles Davis, Wynton Marsalis, John
Coltrane, etc), and I don't care much for reggae. Lately, I have
really been getting into Ray LaMontagne, Mumford&Sons, and The
Avett Brothers.
-Middle Eastern food is my favorite. German and Russian are up
there as well. Thai and Japanese are only slightly further down on
the list. So far, I think the only food I don't really care for is
French, but exceptions have been made.
I try to be open to new things. I like having options.
