I Probably Think Your Band Sucks

About Me

.. width="425" height="350" ..Don't message me in all caps. It makes me think you're yelling at me. Yelling makes me lose bladder control (sad but true).

My Interests

Philosophy, literature, acting, improv, comedy, sports (especially football), music, video games, making fun of horror movies, watching cooking shows, collecting useless information

I'd like to meet:

Someone who likes to laugh, as I like to make people laugh, even though you're not laughing right now...Oh! And MacGyver! Not Richard Dean Anderson... MacGyver.

Music:

music: the band, 311, Chevelle, A Perfect Circle, Eminem, Breaking Benjamin, Green Day, Linkin Park, Incubus, Jurassic5, The Offspring, Staind, Disturbed, The Albion College Euphonics (shameless plug!), any band with a lead singer that I can impersonate (like Dave Matthews Band or Digital Underground)

Movies:

Donnie Darko, I 3 Huckabees, Garden State, High Fidelity, Anchorman, Kung Pow, The Matrix, Batman Begins, Undercover Brother, 8 Mile, The Work and The Glory (shout out to my man Big A! Represent!), May, Whatever the complete opposite of AVP would be, and any bad horror movie I can mock

Television:

The Family Guy, Mr. Show, The Simpsons, SNL, Chappelle's Show, SpongeBob Squarepants, X Play (shut up... it's very entertaining and informative), CSI, and anything on Food Network, but especially Good Eats. Now let's go old school: MacGyver, Saved By the Bell, Batman (the good one with Adam West), and Classic Concentration (remember that? It was a game show... no one remembers that show. I had the home version! Of the game... not of the TV show. That would be weird.)

Books:

Harry Potter (I know... leave me alone), High Fidelity, The History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters, Invisible Man, Fugitive Pieces, In the Skin of a Lion, Dave Barry's Complete Guide to Guys, Dave Barry Slept Here, Oh the Things I Know!, 3 Days in Rome, The Sheik and the Virgin Princess (that's right)

Heroes:

My hero is my dad. He's a good man, who believes in doing what's right, and fighting for those who can't fight for themselves.

A Productive Weekend

I suppose the weekend really began Thursday night. It was the last show of our Skybox run for my Improvised show... and I think we went out with a bang. The show that was reviewed (and, thus that we i...

Weird Dream Central

I had two weird dreams this morning. In the first dream, I started in a very basic looking room. I felt like it was a bedroom, even though the walls were bare and painted a cream color. I also got the...
