music, videogames, anime, art, philosophy as far as I'm capable of grasping, swimming, bad 80s TV shows, cartoons, Warner Bros. cartoons, being a dope....
People who can enjoy each other's company and not deteriorate into vindictive, two-faced souls. Similar nerd-interests are cool, but never required to chat with me.
Meaning...just be yourself. Even if we don't have anything in interest, I'll hold no grudge that I meet someone I can't really connect with. Likewise, if I can chances are you'll enjoy my company too.
I'm pretty easy to talk to, hang out with, etc etc. Simply because for me it's not so much what I'm doing that matters - it's all about who I'm with.
And it would be cool to meet Ok Go:

My dad. For reals. He works hard at everything he does and keeps doing it. He taught me to be inventive and learn how to solve problems, even if it meant lots of trial and error. I also dig Larry Elder because he has a world view that comes close to mine and whether I agree with certain views or not, he always backs up what he says with documented evidence.
