I don't really like to make lists of things that I consider
favorite, and I have a picky memory. Often times I will fall in
love with something, and completely enjoy it while it is
transpiring and for a period after remember it very fondly...and
then it will slip from my mind to till it comes up again
randomly.
Books: I read a great deal of books, mostly Sci-fi/Fantasy. Some of
my favorite authors are JRR Tolkien, David Weber, Eric Flint,
George RR Martin, Jeff Wheeler, Jim Butcher, and others. I not that
long ago read a rather long and confusing series called "The Fallen
of the Malazan Empire" , I enjoyed it. I've got about ∞ books lined
up to read right now, though I don't remember specifically what
they are or who wrote them or anything. I kind of buy books
randomly online.
Movies: I can't remember the names of movies for the life of me,
and I'm pretty bad at remember actors as well, but I'll give it a
shot. I recently saw the movie Drive and I highly enjoyed that
film. I like watching actors like Bruce Willis, or Nicholas Cage,
Christian Bale. I'm mostly into action/adventure types of movies,
but I really enjoy Mystery movies as well and anything similar to
the books I've read. I also watch a lot of terrible movies, or B
movies, and I rather enjoy watching old asian movies.
Shows: I'm bad at keeping up with current TV shows, so I try to
wait till a show is finished or has several seasons before I get
into it. I've watched all of Doctor Who, or at least everything
that's on Netflix. I've seen all of Supernatural, except the most
recent season, and that's probably my favorite show ever. I also
watch a ton of Cop/Detective/Mystery type shows; Bones, Castle,
Criminal Minds, stuff like that. Like with movies though, I can be
into really bad shows and stuff like what I enjoy reading.
Anime: I figure this requires it's own section as well. I watch
anime fairly sporadically, but when I do watch it I get pretty
caught up in it. Dragon Ball Z, cheesy I know, is likely the first
anime I ever saw and something I grew up with. I can actually name
my two favorite animes because one I just finished watching and the
other I just haven't lost memory of yet: Steins;Gate and Ergo
Proxy. I also like things like Durarara and I watch things like
Basquash. There are tons of anime I've seen, and for the most I've
enjoyed them but there are a lot of terrible ones out there, or
things that are always really popular that I try to get into but
can't; Naruto and One Piece come to mind as animes I've seen a lot
of but never really enjoyed.
Video Games: Another section that really deserves it's own segment
for me. I've grown up with video games, and around video games and
with the culture of them. They're important to me for the community
or certain games and of just gaming in general (though I know it
can often times be rather negative) and because of nearly endless
enjoyment and stress relief they bring to me. I'm mostly a PC gamer
though I've owned or own most of the major consoles. I enjoy mostly
RPGs or action/adventure type game, things like Baldur's Gate, Mass
Effect, Alpha Protocol, Assassin's Creed, The Witcher, Tomb Raider,
Uncharted, Skyrim. In the past I've really gotten into the online
community of certain games, like Neverwinter Nights or MMOs like
Lineage. These days however I tend to stay away from MMOs, as I
find them to be a money sink and rather unhealthy in that they
aren't enjoyable and create more stress rather than relieve it.
Chances are though, if you name a game I've likely played a bit of
it or have heard of it. I named mostly newer things, but a lot of
my favorites are older titles like Zelda: A Link to the Past, or
Streets of Rage, Sonic & Knuckles, etc. I'm also a rather large
supporter of Kickstarter games, I've gotten behind over two dozen
games I think.
Music: Music music music, I have a lot of it and accounts with
every online streaming system I can think of. I have around 140GBs
of music, and who knows how many combined channels/favorited things
online. I listen just to about every genre of music, though
Electronica and its similar genres along with Metal and its similar
genres, tend to be the ones I like the most. I even listen to some
rap and country though. More recently some of my most listed
artists are: Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Laserhawk, Kidnap &
Ransom, Kavinsky, Emilie Autumn, Emancipator, uhhh....and I don't
even know who else, Eastern Sun, The Lonely island, Tito Puente,
Symphony X, Pain of Solace. Heh I remembered some others. Yeah I
forget stuff here too.
Food: Foooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood. I really like
eating food. I have a sensitive stomach however, and a lot of food
upsets me and I don't even know why. I'm lactose intolerant, eggs
don't seem to agree with me, and random things I don't even know.
Sometimes I can eat something and I'm fine and I'll eat another
time and die. I can't seem to eat at IHOP without getting sick, so
I don't eat there. While it's unlikely you've heard of it my
favorite restaurant was this place called Lonestar, some people say
it still exists but not around here it doesn't. I really enjoy
cheeseburgers, and cheese fries, but I've got to be careful with
them, what with that cheese and all. To be honest though, I'll eat
most things at least once, and generally I'll eat anything. I'm
fairly agreeable to almost eatery. Ooooh! Cherries! I really really
like cherries!
And that's it for here I guess. I think that about covers it no?
