Ridiculous conversation resulting in spasms and bruises, booze, booze, booze, cigarettes, words in general, and all kinds of nonsense that I shall keep in my pocket until the moment to show them arises.
Dorothy Parker. Might be a little awkward what with her deceased and everything. We'd insult each other cleverly with a hint of sophistication for a while....I hope. I might just get drunk, stupid, belligerent, and then vomit on her dress. Eh, either way. Got 30 seconds? This is an awesome little flick... width="425" height="350" ....
It's hip to be square!!!!!!!! Tom Waits, The Kinks, Lou Reed, Elvis Costello, Talking Heads, Classic Joe Cocker, Gorillaz, Toots and the Maytals, Bob Dylan, Tool's pretty interesting, used to love Ani Difranco, Rufus Wainwright, TOBY KEITH B/C HE HAS WRITTEN THE WORST LYRICS IN HISTORY-and I think that's something to applaud. Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Miles Davis, Andrew Byrd, The Seigal Schwall Band, The Original Rude Boy, George McMahon, etc.
I'm a bit of a movie junkie: Jesus's Son, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Holiday, ALL Groucho Marx films, Heaven, Swingers, Made, Jim Jarmusch films, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, Tim Burton films, American Beauty, The Shinning (c'mon, who doesn't love Jack in that?), Psycho, Rear Window, Finding Nemo, What's Eating Gilbert Grape (say, "Where's Arnie?"), Quentin Tarantino films, American Psycho, Dirty Pretty Things, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (slightly obvious), Fight Club, Wonder Boys, Cohen Bros. films, Shaun of the Dead, Clockwork Orange(excellent book as well)and Kubrick films, Some Like it Hot, Scotland PA, High Fidelity, Wes Anderson films, Harvey, The Burbs, and it keeps going......
Arrested Development, Extras, Simpsons, Family Guy, the original Office. Basically, anything without canned laughter. Oh! And Fishing with John. How can ice fishing with Willem DaFoe not be fucking hilarious?
I'm doing authors instead: Steinbeck (Cannery Row's my favorite), Kurt Vonnegut, Chuck Palahniuck, Nick Hornby, Hunter S. Thompson, Michael Chabon, Dave Eggers, Kingsley Amis, Your Mom, and I do NOT, repeat DO NOT, like Dan Brown at all, so please no conversations involving Angels and Demons or the Da Vinci Code. I've cracked that code already--it's crap.
I try not to have many heroes because to make someone a hero puts an incredible amount of pressure on them. But Mighty Mouse? He's fucking amazing.
