Books:
Most of my favorite books have been recommended and/or given to me by hot girls. Even my reading habits are influenced by sexuality, how sad. High Fidelity, Parable of the Sower, Bird by Bird, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, The City In Which I Love You, The Time Traveler's Wife, Einstein's Dreams, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, The Passion, Sex Drugs and Cocoa Puffs, The Beloved, etc. I've started Freud: On War, Sex and Neurosis, Prozac Nation, The Sirens of Titan, Wicked, Breakfast at Tiffany's, The English Patient, The House on Mango Street and Brave New World, but never finished them. I do that a lot. Right now I'm reading A Long Way Down and planning to read The Book of Laughter and Forgetting, The Bell Jar, Atlas Shrugged, Parable of the Talents, Fight Club, Pestalozzi's The Hours of a Hermit (if I can find it in English) and an ever-increasing list of 3,283,915 other books.
Heroes:
Dave Chappelle and Super Shredder are tied for third.
