my loved ones, Irish Pride, beer math, bookworm-ism, writing, high fives, used book stores, art, playing with my cats, video games, Columbus Metropolitan Libraries, going to shows, tattoos, nature walks, record shopping, pints of Guinness, Nexium, hedgecore, Wii injuries, coffee, mullet hunting, wikipedia, having drunken theological and political conversations.

Persons lacking excessive shitbaggery.
Anyone who has a good head on their shoulders and can carry on serious or completely ridiculous conversations with the same amount of ease.
