Books: I prefer historical nonfiction. I like reading about corrupt
politicians and enigmatic, flawed figures. Lolita, how-to manuals,
AP style books, anything that offers the closest representation of
true events. All The President's Men, The Sound and the Fury.
anything involving conspiracy theories, textbooks, really anything
that at least aims at truth. But of course fiction is fun also.
Lately, I'm more into lectures on space and conspiracies.
Shows: Breaking Bad, Mr. Show, horrid reality shows, The Adventures
of Pete & Pete, The Wonder Years
Music: R.E.M., Guided By Voices, Steely Dan, Smashing Pumpkins,
Pavement, Neil Young, Prince, Outkast, The Lemonheads, Screeching
Weasel, Slayer, Sunny Day Real Estate, Joanna Newsom, Radio Dept.
Sparks, They Might Be Giants, Carcass, Elvis Costello, Baby Bird,
Sun Kil Moon, Red House Painters...I could never come up with a
satisfactory list for this.
Movies: Annie Hall, Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, Eraserhead,
Mullholland Dr., Magnolia, Boogie Nights, The Big Lebowski...an
assortment of documentaries OH also these..Persona, King of Comedy,
Fargo, other things that are good that you don't care about most
likely.
Not only do I like all these things, I also find enough time to
eat. When I'm not stuffing my face, I usually am caught indulging
in the above. I seriously just drink coffee and imagine eating a
full course meal. I mean, with these paychecks...you know?
