Playing the guitar and piano and writing. I also like to hook myself up to my Dad's synthesiser for hours on end and write horrendously cheesy trance/electronica music that even Satan would be ashamed of. Paul Oakenfold can suck my numerous bells.
I'd like to meet:
Free-thinking, hedonistic individuals and anybody who wishes to fund my various substance 'addictions'. I WILL give head for crack and/or eye contact ;)

Meet Me In St Louis - Listen to them, Love them.
Movies:
City of God is my favourite movie of all time. Basically if a film has subtitles then I generally love it (except Lord of the Rings! Elvish subtitles piss me off! And so do those midget arseholes!)
View Askew
I am very pretentious when it comes to films...if it's from Hollywood then I generally hate it, but that doesn't mean I'll discount anything and everything from Hollwood (unless it stars Tom Hanks, don't tell me he's a good actor because you're wrong).
Two relentlessly bleak and depressing films I can recommend are "Love Liza" and "The Woodsman"; prepare to lose the will to live...
I tried to watch 'The Harder They Come' but I couldn't understand the patois. How tragic.
Television:
Spaced, Brass Eye, The Sopranos, Futurama, Jam, The Day Today, The X Files, Black Books, NEIGHBOURS!!!! South Park, Blackadder, Peep Show, Game On, Father Ted...anyone remember "The Last Train"????...now that was rad!
Books:
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and His Dark Materials are two of my favourite collections. I also enjoy about 60% of Ben Elton's work. Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. The Discworld Novels by Terry Pratchett. American Gods by Neil Gaiman. The Crow Road by Iain Banks is a book that I recommend everyone should read, it is witty and the vocabulary is extensive.
The House of Cards trilogy by Michael Dobbs.
LORD OF THE RINGS IS SHIT AND BORING!
I read a lot, and so there are far too many titles to feasibly list.
Heroes:
William Blake;
Jonny Greenwood;
Jerry Cantrell;
Richard James;
Ray Mears;
Aldous Huxley;
