I absolutely adore music. I love it, I sing it with a funny voice, I make it, I enjoy it. I take great pleasure in making mix tapes, and picking the perfect band for you that you don't know about yet.
Yeah, I'm one of those assholes.

You name it, I've seen it. I really like the films that Charlie Kaufman has written, I'm a big fan of Trey Parker, I like or love all of David Fincher's films, I enjoy the View Askewniverse, and Terry Gilliam. Particular movies that don't fall under that umbrella that I feel strongly about are American History X, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, The Shawshank Redemption, Monsters Inc., TRON, Raiders of the Lost Ark, A Clockwork Orange, and a few documentaries, like This Film Is Not Yet Rated.
Social science, religion, philosophy, economics. What have you. I'll generally have one or two novels going at any time, too. Right now Neal Stephenson and Chuck Palahniuk sleep with me.
My sister.
