A lot of things interest me. I love music. I love film. I love some T.V. I love to read. I love playing computer games. Does this make me a geek and/or nerd? I guess it does. So be it. I have also taken a liking to kickboxing.I love to avoid my degree. Anything but doing some kind of work is appealing to me. But I don't like the idea of getting a full-time job. I don't like that idea at all...I like all my friends, and I like to spend time with them in whatever form. Yes, they're even good when sober. Cheers you lot, for being so class.
You. And You. And Noel Edmonds.^Possibly the great music video ever made!^I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Films are great. I like lots and lots of them. Too many to name in fact. So, here are some choice favourites:Star Wars (originals!), Indiana Jones, Usual Suspects, Pulp Fiction, Ghostbusters 1 & 2(oh yes!), Blues Brothers, Fight Club, most Pixar films, South Park, Donnie Darko, Lost in Translation, Sin City, Brazil, Team America, Seven, Kevin Smith's movies, The Life Aquatic, Lord of the Rings, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Studio Ghibli Animations, The Shawshank Redemption, High Fidelity, Batman, Batman Returns & Batman Begins, Sideways, Shaun of the Dead, Groundhog Day, Memento, and most Tim Burton movies (he's cool!). I could go on and on cos there are so many classy films out there!
Generally not a fan of the generic shows T.V. spurns out these days (yes, that means you Reality T.V.). I do like the marvellous comedy it produces though, including: The Mighty Boosh, Family Guy, The League of Gentlemen, Extras, Scrubs, Spaced, Father Ted, Big Train, Alan Partridge, Arrested Development, Green Wing, Futurama, Mitchell and Webb, Malcolm in the Middle, Darkplace, My Name Is Earl, The Office, Fresh Prince, Peep Show, Frasier, Phoenix Nights, Nathan Barley, (and of course) The Simpsons. But, sorry folks, i really don't like Little Britain. Shocking? I don't think so....Gotta love some of the non comedy shows as well, such as, 24, C.S.I. (Vegas, Miami, and New York!), Lost, Quantum Leap (classic!), Firefly, House, mostly just American drama exports, British drama doesn't have much going for it!
Mostly fantasy, yes, I am a geek, but i just love it! A few fav authors are: Robin Hobb, Robert Jordan, Terry Brooks, Tom Holt, George R R Martin.
Bill Murray - the original man of dry wit!; Bill Bailey - I can only wish to live in a world as obscure as his; Matt Bellamy - musical excellence; Thom Yorke - who says you can't be successful and look unhappy about it?; John Peel - responsible for introducing the world to immeasurable amounts of good (and bad!) music.
