| General | Hmmm, I like ice cream and photography, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and making snowmen, frozen peas and currently, watching movies about The Antichrist..... good bedtime fodder. I also like sleeping in and staying up late, going to concerts and always wearing ear protection. I like good conversation and the occasional inappropriate joke. Apparently now I also like myspace. I'm interested in things that I don't understand, and attempting to expand my vocabulary. | | Music | I don't have a top ten, or itemized list or anything, so in no particular order:
David Bowie, the Beatles, pre-Dangerous Michael Jackson, pre-Disneyfied Elton John, Ryan Adams, Elliot Smith, Caetano Veloso, SOY CAPTAIN FOREVER! Mogwai, Godspeed You Black Emperor, pre-X&Y Coldplay, Iron & Wine, Rolling Stones, Interpol, Tegan & Sara, Hawksley Workman, the Arcade Fire, the Mars Volta, Bob Dylan, Bjork, the Polyphonic Spree, the Shins, Stars, Jeff Buckley, Cuff the Duke, Hayden, George Harrison, Ravi Shankar, the Unicorns, the Tragically Hip, Metric, the Music, Guster, Al Green, Queens of the Stone Age, Death from Above 1979, Kings of Leon, Bloc Party, Devendra Banhart, Belle & Sebastian, Frou Frou, Johnny Cash, Billie Holiday, Tears for Fears, Rise Against, Ron Sexsmith, Ghosts of Modern Man, the Stills, the Stereophonics, Supertramp, ELO, Travis, Neil Young, John Wort Hannam, Corb Lund Band, Air, the White Stripes, Tiger Army, Sloan, Placebo, the Doves, Nick Drake, Gastr Del Sol, Matthew Good, Sarah Harmer, Mellowdrone, Longwave, Esthero, Most Serene Republic, etc. etc. | | Movies | I've been systematically exposing myself to more and more 'classics', aka movies that everyone else believes I should have seen already (yes, I've finally seen 'Fight Club', get off my case!). I really like French films and the weird movies that Marc used to show in my Art History classes, documentaries, smart and well-written comedy, and B-Horror or psychological suspense. Please spare me the rom-coms! | | Television | Simpsons, Seinfeld, Futurama, LOST, CBC's The Hour (I <3 Strombo). | | Books | Margaret Atwood, 'King Dork', Harry Potter, 'The Shining', Roald Dahl, Ray Bradbury, 'The Rebel Sell', and my big book on the history of birth control. |
