I'm looking to meet people who know who they are and what style they want their life to be. I want to talk to people who are interested in the world around and who love their quirks. It wouldn't hurt if you own multiple recordings of some classical piece and know why you like each one, have a favorite tea, and read for fun and like to talk about it.
Andrew Bird, Muse, Alias and Tarsier, Sufjan Stevens, the Mountain Goats, the Silver Jews, Architecture in Helsinki, All "classical" music from Beethoven on, and the One Am Radio.
I don't own a TV, but I've been coming across the Office on the internet and it's pretty awesome.
All the Kings Men, Blank Slate: the modern denial of human nature, Reading Lolita in Tehran.
