Many and varied... everything from listening NPR to playing darts down the pub to enjoying a wonderously awful hot dog at a hockey game. If you can tell a story with it, I'll pay attention to it... I'm a fan of literature and trash alike, an avid follower of comic books (yep, I'm a geek and I've made my peace with it) and a student of anything that's a little odd or surreal. I'm generally quiet, but can talk for hours about all kinds of random stuff (politics included... be warned now, I can go off on a leftist soapbox, but I generally try to avoid it). I probably won't start the adventure, but when it shows up, I'm a good person to have at your side...
I like people who like to talk, because I like to listen. Of course, I tend to listen better to people who are open-minded, creative and more than a little odd in their own right.
Hmmm... mostly quieter, lyric-heavy stuff or british pop/alternative... yeah, I'm one of those broody guys that listens to a lot of broody music... hence favorite bands include (but are not limited to) The Cure, Eels, Pulp, Spiritualized, Johnny Cash, Tom Waits, Beth Orton, The Smiths, Modest Mouse, Dave Matthews Band (yeah, I know, but I'm from michigan so I figure it's just a genetic clitch), Blur, Talking Heads, The Psychadelic Furs, Aerosmith, Radiohead, Killers, Over the Rhine, Soul Coughing, Death in Vegas, Eric Clapton, The Who, Suzanne Vega, Springsteen (listen to Nebraska again, I dare you), John Mayer, and others... I've got decent (though not always defensible) taste, let's leave it at that......and if you tell me it's good, I'll at least give it a try.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force + anything else showing on adult swim except Family Guy, lots of cable news and commentary, and the occasional reality show, even if only to marvel at how ridiculous people become as soon as there's a tv camera involved
Many. Too many. Way too many to list. Way too heavy to carry said list without assistance.I love literature and am open to most all of it. Let me know where to start, and I'll talk your ear off... but since we're probably not to the ear-nibbling stage yet, I'll just say yeah, I read a lot.
What Be Your Nerd Type? Your Result: Literature Nerd
Does sitting by a nice cozy fire, with a cup of hot tea/chocolate, and a book you can read for hours even when your eyes grow red and dry and you look sort of scary sitting there with your insomniac appearance? Then you fit this category perfectly! You love the power of the written word and it's eloquence; and you may like to read/write poetry or novels. You contribute to the smart people of today's society, however you can probably be overly-critical of works.It's okay. I understand.
