My Interests

my interests.... I enjoy making border runs to neighboring countries and almost getting my head blown off by angry border police. I enjoy driving around the countryside, getting out to take a piss and having a cobra jump (THEY FUCKING JUMP!!) out of a bush making me hold my bodily functions the rest of the trip. I enjoy when a drunk backpacker enter store so I can take one of his/hers sandals and then watching them stumble and start fights over who stole their sandal. I enjoy watching middle aged drunk brits end up leaving bars with gathoeys (thai transvestites) and turning to my brit friends and going "dude, that is soo you in 15 years".I also enjoy like music from like wu-tang to tori amos to slayer back to like cibbo matto then off to like the jam or something. movies are good too, but since i have a short attention span there needs one of these two elements or a combination of both of them, boobies/ salma hayek, grace park or excessive (i'm talking quentin tarantino ear cutting off excessive) blood/ disembowlings. books rule too but i dont like to tell many people i read a whole lot then it just becomes messy with my super duper gang member/ stupid dunderhead image. i cant have my peeps be like "sucka, since when you be readin' St. Thomas Aquinas and shiiit??" how uncool would that be??
