Music:
I haven't got the time or the energy to figure out which music I should like, and I don't care to adhere to a scene or influencer, so I just don't like music. It saves me a lot of time and effort, and makes me the de facto coolest music rebel kid on the block, since I'm now so cool I officially don't like or care about anything. Woooee, no copying, posers!
Movies:
Fuck it, I don't know. I can't make that list, I've been watching movies since I was 4. What do you want me to say? Guess. Make a list of 5 or so movies and rate them in order of how much I like them (more to less) and send it to me and if you get it right I'll tell you how smart you are. I like the movies you like, except that one and THAT one, and that one genre that you watch with other people anyway and don't like to expose to people who aren't already into it, and your one favorite actor is my favorite actor, and that other one I hate, and we can have good natured arguments about it. We love all the same directors, except for him, and we won't discuss it anymore since that night you'll end up throwing a beer at me. And we're in love with exactly one same actor and we'll sit up late at night pretending we could ever have him (her) and arguing over who gets the leftovers, and we'll always get to the movie store thinking about the exact same movie and one alternate that will be different. Wow. We have so much in common! You should write me a long letter.
Television:
Um, RonCo Rotisserie Cooker, Victoria Principal's Perfect Skin System, Dr. Weng's Coral Calcium Way to Health, Tony Little's TotalGazelle (I don't sleep at night very much, yo.) Mostly I watch movies right now. My vcr and dvd are my friends.
