About Me

You ever notice how, sometimes, you'll be in the middle of something, like paper work or driving or being at the bank, and all of a sudden, for no reason at all, you kinda think, "Fuck. I love movies, Pepsi, making love, and drinking beer," but you don't know where that thought came from?Well, I feel that way always. Non-stop, I want at least one of those things at all times. ALWAYS.Plus, you can beat me at arm wrestling.

My Interests

Comic books. Stop laughing and start asking me to recommend something. Or I'll tape your butt-hole shut while you're sleeping. Then, later, everyone arond you will be all like, "Ew, you know what I heard? I heard that guy over there has their butt taped shut." and then I'll be behind THEM going all like, "Yeah Yeah! I heard that!" SO, seriously. I can recommend some comics if you want. I'd rather not have to touch your butt. I've heard it's weird.

I'd like to meet:

I wanna meet a gang of ninjas and a band of pirates at a bar and get them all real drunk and turn to one of the ninjas and be all like, "Hey, Kim-Su, Pirate Kyle was talking shit all over your beard today and mentioned how you love to stare at guys' butts," but really Pirate Klye is the nicest of the bunch, so when Kim-Su goes and confronts him, all the other pirates are kinda like, "Whoa, what the fuck is going on over there between Pirate Kyle and that ninja," but then I'd tell Pirate Kyle's buddy Pirate Chuck (who is so totally in love with Pirate Kyle but he can't say anything cause he's afraid it might end their friendship, but, like, EVERYBODY can tell) that Kim-Su has a crush on Pirate Kyle, but I'd tell Pirate CHuck after he'd had a few so that he'd be more willing to go start shit with the ninjas and stuff and then I'd watch as Pirate Chuck has a breakdown and confesses his love for Pirate Kyle TO Pirate Kyle and watch as the rest of the pirates celebrate and rejoice and I'd ask the ninjas to go out back in the alley and chill out a little and try to teach me how to throw a ninja star and do flips and junk.

Music:

I just got the new Duncan Sheik album, and Yellow Card. Yellow Card was the soundtrack to last summer. This new album isn't all that great yet. I figure it'll grow on me. Oh, and Ryan is playing some dope beats in the office. (By "dope beats" I mean "you suck cause you haven't heard it yet") As of right now, I like Pretty Girls Make Graves, the Decemberists, Q-Unit (a Queen/G-Unit mashup), Brand New, Snow Patrol, Sage Francis, Grand Buffet, Atmosphere, Non Prophets, Nightmare of You, Fallout Boy, and some other junk. Oh, man, I love Pepsi.

Movies:

porn. Wet Hot American Summer. Super Troopers. Dukes of Hazard. Napolean Dynamite. Wedding Crashers. Roll Bounce. porn.

Television:

Arrested Development. Get the first season and second season on DVD at Blockbuster right now. Also, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia will blow you away.It's more funny than you'll ever know. PLEASE watch one episode and TRY to keep up with the comedy. It's funny on a second viewing. It's MEANT to be like that. It's LAYERED.Lost just crawled under my skin and I'm addicted. And Real World Austin reminds me of home. Read my blogs to learn more. Or don't. See if I care.

Books:

comics comics comics... Clumsy from Jeff Brown. Mome. Runaways. Young Avengers. Living with Zombies. Solo. DMZ. Kamandi. Infinite Crisis! Seven Soldiers. Walking Dead. Girls. JSA. Y: the Last Man. And so much more that it makes me a total nerd and I'm ok with that. (I'll pee in a bag and throw it at you if you call me a nerd.) I like Chuck Palahniuk and John Cheevers and Amy Hemple and Flannery O'Conner and my sister's diary.Also. Giant Magazine is phenomenal and everything you ever dreamed of in entertainment news. It's like Maxim and Entertainment Weekly got drunk one night at Stuff Magazine's house and they all three "experimented" and had a bit of a threesome and then 9 months later Giant Magazine popped out with a huge dick, great hair, and the ability to shit gold.Really, though. I have no idea what I meant by that. Just flip through it next time you go to the store.
