lately, my life can be summed up as: COMIC BOOKS, FLYERS HOCKEY, AND CLASSIC WRESTLING. Living in the Star Wars universe, being hopelessly lost in and obsessed with the 1980s(music, movies, pop culture, life in general),Transformers(G1), DJing (book me!), NES, Atari 2600, Dungeons and Dragons (and RPGs in general), etc
Probably not you. DEFINITELY not your band. Stop sending me friend requests if you at least aren't going to take the decency to talk to me. This does not include messages that say "hey check out my music." Fuck you and your shitty band. Unless you're in my "music" favorites and I haven't added you yet for some reason, I probably don't care.
Anybody who shares some of my more obscure interests, really. Natalie Portman. Morrissey/Smiths fans. Star Wars nerds. People who want to play D&D (also down for Vampire, Whitewolf, Star Wars, or pretty much any RPG) Vegans who want to have dinner parties. People who are hopelessly lost in the 80s. Or anyone who is just hopelessly lost. Kindred wandering souls. People who want to hang the fuck out and be awesome together. Out of state/country friends who want to stay at my house (and not eat my food then lie to my face about it). The Dalai Lama. Morrissey. Ron Hextall, Mike Richards, and anyone who currently or previously has worn the orange and black (except for Chris Therien, Joni Pitkanen, Jim Vandermeer, and Eric Lindros- good riddance) Lord Stanley's Cup. Sidney Crosby, so I can punch him in the face. Flyers fans. Comic book nerds. Hot women from the planet Ryloth. George Lucas. Genuine people (few and far between. prove me wrong)
MORRISSEY, THE SMITHS, THE CRANBERRIES, NEW ORDER, JOY DIVISION, Iron Maiden, The Hooters, Kraftwerk, Duran Duran, Quicksand, Helmet, Handsome, Texas Is the Reason, Lifetime, Faith No More, Anthrax, first 4 Metallica records, Guns N' Fuckin Roses, Sinead O'Connor, Depeche Mode, Robert Hazard and the Heroes, Colin Hay/Men At Work, Earth Crisis, Damnation AD, Unbroken, Damien Dempsey, The Cure, Information Society, 7 Generations, Gather, Ultravox, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, Siouxsie, The Smithereens, Wham!/George Michael, The A's, Joe Jackson, The Police, Human League, Giorgio Moroder, Interpol, Camouflage, old Madonna. mostly 80s indie, new wave, synth pop, postpunk, etc. Classic metal. Almost no new hardcore. I prefer it when it wasn't contrived bullshit with no substance.

turn off your TV and turn on your mind.... read a book."Sitting down on a couch, you watch, a fucking slave to a TV show. You thought before but you sat and dropped. What did you learn? You don't even know, and I kid myself but my eyes are glued on this thing. It steals my time and wastes what I've learned. I'm holding out for a better deal, for something real. You know I'd like to say that I could spend a day at home with it left off. How strong's our will? I can't blend with the ads I see. They're better looking than me. You try to look your best, but you'll never rest. Think, it won't make you happy. A standard set that I just cannot live up to. It steals my time and wastes what I've learned. I'm holding out for a better deal, for something real. You know I'd like to say that I could spend a day at home with it left off. How strong's our will? Our lives are led by TV shows, you know it's true. Instead of thinking, we play Donkey Kong. There's something wrong with that. We're made to think that life's like a game show. So there we go again. The one to die with the most toys is the one who wins. I just can't stand it. Sitting down on a couch, you watch, a fucking slave to a TV show. Yout hought before but you sat and dropped. What did you learn? You don't even know. It's a brain vacation. A mental masturbation. It steals my time and wastes what I've learned. I'm holding out for a better deal, for something real. You know I'd like to say that I could spend a day at home with it left off. How strong's our will?..."

Kup, because he's been through some shit, seen it all, done it all, is old and cranky, always has a good story to tell, and is still badass. I can relate.
