About Me

Cereal enthusiast and David Cross fanboy.

My Interests

Soccer, writing, watching Michael Stipe dance, reading and gummy things. Oh, and I like music you've never heard, movies only released on Betamax and beer from European countries that were imported solely to me. And I liked said music, movie and beer before you'd heard of them. I was the first. Once you started liking it, I didn't anymore.

I'd like to meet:

Would be neat to talk with (I'll stick with people who were living during the 20th century): Bob Dylan, Hunter S. Thompson, Richard Pryor, Charles Schulz, Noam Chomsky, Johnny Cash, Bertrand Russell, Pete Townshend, Cornel West, Henry Rollins, I.F. Stone, Emma Goldman, David Cross, Cedric Bixler, John Dewey, Otis Redding, Cesar Chavez, Bill Hicks, Naomi Klein, Howard Zinn, John Cusack and Cap'n Crunch.

it's fake reviews of fake music and movies.

It's jokes. 1) The best movie about psoriasis since Psudden Impact. 2) The film rethinks the idea that all men are created equal. There are moments of magic that remind how us just how terrible and d...
