Don Hertzfeldt. Zombies, pirates, robots, cats and cat-related humour (oh, how I love a good cat cartoon), music, movies, ponies, good times, games (board, drinking, mind), the quest for the perfect grilled cheese sandwich, being a procrastinating hedonist with no priorities. Good friends, good food, good wine. People willing to do something spontaneous and fun. Being open-minded. The environment. Learning not to sweat the small stuff, and learning that maybe most of it really is small stuff.And when I'm nervous, if there's paper, I make tiny origami stars and leave them scattered everywhere. Sorry.
Creative people with that balance of optimism and cynicism. I tend to like folks who are creatively foul-mouthed, with good souls and an affinity for good times. People who recognize that most of us don't know shit but it's fun to theorize and talk a lot of said shit.Anyone who can make me laugh until I can't breathe. People without a judgmental mean streak. People who can leave me speechless. People who want to beat me at pool or break into a pool at night to swim.People who are honest, and good to each other, and fiercely loyal. "And why does he hang out with those retarded gorillas, as you called them? Because any one of them, if he asked them to, would take a fucking bat to your head, okay?"Plus if you have a cat or a dog, that'd be good...I love animals. Or a ferret. Those things are like awesome fuzzy snakes.

Culture!(Okay, I like some besides gay porn. A smattering: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, the Evil Dead trilogy [really any zombie movies except that weird one Kyle & I watched where he wasn't even a zombie, he was just like..a cannibal, and all guilt-ridden about it...it was bad], the Princess Bride, Blade Runner, Amelie, Dead Alive, Shakes the Clown [why has nobody seen/heard of this movie? Bobcat Goldthwaite as an alcoholic, mime-beating clown!], Tampopo, Y Tu Mama Tambien, the Big Lebowski, Secretary, Wallace & Gromit [the shorts were best, but Curse of the Were-Rabbit was good too], Clerks, Grosse Pointe Blank, Network, Romper Stomper, Ravenous, the Breakfast Club, Basquiat, A Clockwork Orange, Frankenhooker, Bladerunner, Tampopo, Reanimator, GhostWorld, Falling Down, Ma Vie En Rose, Harold & Maude.
Six Feet Under, the Office (preferably the British but both are good), Queer as Folk (same), Kids in the Hall, the Wire, the L Word (I like the gays, all right?), Family Guy, Carnivale, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, Old re-runs of Taxi, My So-Called Life, Arrested Development. And nature shows. For some reason, I love nature shows (especially the ones with hushed British voice-overs).
Currently reading:But I love all of them, even the bad ones.

Oh, and comics, including Archie. Cool is for losers!
anyone who actively seeks to make people happier, to make people feel better and be safer, to make the world a better place, even through small and seemingly imperceptible kindnesses. Don't be a douche, kids. It's the easy way out. xox.
