Being a destroyer of worlds takes up most of my time...But seriously, I suppose my chief interests consist of pretty lame activities. I play video games, I read, and I watch a pretty fair amount of film (while knitting - don't hate). I dig concerts quite a bit, though my current locale doesn't really lend itself to that hobby.
People who want to have fun, bring something to the table, and don't need to carry on long boring conversations about existentialism to prove their intelligence. Also excluded are people who try and make as many obscure music and film references as humanly possible just to seem hip. Anyone who wants to help drag me away from my computer and out of the house is also a plus.
A guy who can understand that while someone playing Bowling For Soup's Ohio made me feel more than a little warm and fuzzy inside during my brief Dayton stay, well-timed (not very good) music is not the ultimate key to my heart. Maybe that and chocolate though...
Oh, and if you're fucking insane or have some crazy drama issues or some weird bullshit like that? Just leave that at home.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

I tend to like my comedies dark, and everything else with that sweet, senseless romantic vibe..
I may also kick your ass at six degrees of separation.
I don't think I could really come up with a list of top movies or anything like that; it changes often enough that I'd never keep it updated.
Man, TV lets me down time and time again... I used to watch a lot of CNN and Forensic Files, but now it just sort of depresses me. Everything else great gets canceled, like Arrested Development (Anyone who thinks that's not fucking hilarious can just leave now. Seriously though, now, because you'll never see these again), or Dead Like Me.
Catch 22; The Stranger; The Great Gatsby; Atlas Shrugged; Othello (Yes, I know it's a play, fuckass); Survivor; Middlesex; Invisible Monsters; The Virgin Suicides; Harry Potter (Eep, so embarassing); The Unbeareable Lightness of Being; High Fidelity; Wonder Boys; Oryx and Crake; Good Omens.
I'll give almost anything a read once, but I do tend to stay away from most Science Fiction and Fantasy stuff. If I wanted to read a book of adjectives, I'd just pick up the dictionary.
Though nothing will keep us together. We can be heroes, forever and ever. We can be heroes, just for one day.
