I hate music snobs with an uncommon passion, however I must say that all of this manufactured pop and pop country disgust me even further. I am thankful that I don't have any kids, because if my kid was into that ridiculous Hannah Montana etc. stuff I'd have to give my child away due to embarrasment, and I'm pretty sure that would make me a bad parent. Here are a few of my faves at the moment- Amy Winehouse, Smiths, Jack Johnson, Johnny Cash, Beck, Sinatra, Sun Volt, Lemonheads.
Boondock Saints, Pi, Memento, K-Pax, Frailty...I do like some foreign films but I don't watch them just to be a pretentious asshole. Pretentious assholes are almost as disturbing as pop culture itself. I hate chick flicks, or romantic comedies as they are euphemistically called.
I hate reality tv so much that I wish I was the lucky bastard that created it. Then I could buy stuff to console myself with and entertain me so that I wouldn't ever have to be subjected to it. I like LOST, Reno 911, Ali G., Chapelle...and I am searching for a straight man who will allow me to watch the Golden Girls in his prescence...do you know anyone like that? Didn't think so...Oh, strictly FYI- If you watch Top Chef stoned, you will get fat.
Margaret Atwood, Keats, Wallace Stevens, Jim Caroll, Bukowski, Coleridge, Pound, Eliot, Yeats, Tom Robbins, Vonnegut, Tom Wolfe, Dune and of course A Confederacy of Dunces and The Catcher in the Rye. If I see someone reading a "Chick Lit" or romance novel I have been know to pounce upon them and administer unto them a profound and well deserved beating.
Flamboyantly colored farm animals that sacrifice their very lives in order to provide us with a delicious breakfast meat chock full of nitrates. Mmmmmm. Baaaacooon!
