Books: the Myst series, Sherlock Holmes stories, some books on
hypnosis. I take my time when I read, I'm not the type to blow
through multiple decent-length books in a week.
Movies: Dogma, Clerks I/II (Kevin Smith movies in general),
Spaceballs and a good number of Mel Brooks movies, most
"non-idiotic" comedy, and anime (for TV and movies).
Sidenote: If you love Jackass and don't really get a movie like
Dogma (there's something to "get"?), we probably will NOT get along
well.
Music: anything except rap or hip hop, though I have a preference
toward jazz and classical, mainly instrumental music. I mention
classical, but not big on opera. Anyway, I know lines of songs, I
rarely remember song names unless famous, and I never remember song
performers, so just because a song is famous doesn't mean I'll have
a chance of knowing who performed it. I'm always shocked when
someone doesn't know really well known older songs, i.e. (Don't
Fear) The Reaper ("I need more cowbell") or Bohemian Rhapsody. Yes,
very different songs, just giving examples. I don't expect people
to memorize lines, I expect people to recognize the melody or
something, though lol. I'm somewhat entertained when a 50 year old
guy will hear me sing something fairly unknown these days like "16
Tons" (YouTube it, good song) and be like "Someone as young as you
knows that song?!" :P
It's also cool when I can reference lines from "They're Coming to
Take Me Away, Ha Ha!" and not be looked at like I'm truly nutty by
at least one person lol.
Shows: various
anime, such as Fullmetal Alchemist (and
FMA: Brotherhood), Baccano (possibly best dub job to date), and Yu
Yu Hakusho (believe me, I can go on). What about stuff that's not
anime, you ask? Witty drama shows more than most others, like
House, White Collar, and Psych (is Psych drama? Yea, I
suppose...)
Food: steak, pizza rolls, ravioli, ice cream (I tend to want it
more in the winter than in the summer... is that wierd?), and
especially
sushi and
sashimi. LOVE that stuff.
Not completely on the same topic, but also love checking out videos
at ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com (not all, but quite a few) when I got
time. Some gems there, take a look around at some point, thank me
later.
