Obsessing over music, playing said music (bass, vox, etc.), RPGs and wargames (HackMaster, AD&D, Warhammer 40K, Mordheim), board games (Settlers of Catan, old-school Avalon Hill hex-and-counter games etc.), tactical nuclear videocassette rewinders, destroying civilization, making fun of you.
People into good metal, punk, and folk music ("good" being pretty fucking subjective, obviously, but check out my interests), good books, thinking about shit once in a while, and hopefully people who are smart and cynical enough to avoid bullshit drama and organized religion.
punk (hardcore (not XspinkickXmoshXmetalX), thrash, metal (folk metal, viking metal, black metal, death metal, blackened death metal, deathened black metal, thrash metal, doom metal, NWOBHM, shrapnel in my large intestine from that time I was in 'Nam), folk (old American and Irish folk, neofolk, viking folk, European folk, medieval folk), hip-hop (underground shit and 80's stuff), classical (mainly arranged for guitar). And whatever else. Bands? Bands.

First and foremost: Robert Heinlein, Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, William Gibson, Spider Robinson, Robert Anton Wilson, Tolkien, Douglas Adams, and Abbie Hoffman. When I paint my Sistein Chapel, that's who'll be on the ceiling. Also see: Dave Barry, Orson Scott Card, Ursula Le Guin, R.A. Salvatore, Neal Stephenson, Larry Niven, old-school pulp / sword & sorcery shit (Robert E. Howard, Jack Vance, Fritz Leiber, H. P. Lovecraft, Edgar Rice Burroughs) and nerdy gamer fiction (Forgotten Realms and Dragonlance shit, Warhammer 40K Black Library crap, etc.). Comics: John Byrne, Evan Dorkin, Eastman & Laird, Jack Fucking Kirby, David Lapham, Frank Miller, Alan Moore, Dave Sim, and whatever else catches my eye. Fuck, I haven't read for shit lately, I gotta get off this stupid computer...
Abbie Fucking Hoffman. Garm, Simen Haestnes, and Vintersorg. Geezer Butler, Steve Harris, and Cliff Burton (the unholy trinity of metal bass players), Alex Webster, Eric Langlois, and Tyr (the bass player, not the Norse god). (Although I'm not saying I don't think he's an ok guy, just not technically one of my heroes.) (If you're a Norse god, please don't come to my house and beat me up.) (Please.)
