I LOVE video games. Zelda, Guitar Hero, Mario, Halo, Rainbow Six, Tony Hawk's, Gears of War... the list goes on.
I have an equal fondness for puzzles in all their guises (except Kakuro, which you probably haven't heard of anyway...). I moderate the forums of www.perplexcity.com which is the worlds largest collection of online puzzles. It's immensly fun. I recommend you check it out ;-)
I also love writing. See those two banners on your right? Give'm a click.
Music
I like lotsa different bands and stuff. At the moment, my favourite band are probably The Fratellis, but like I said there are a hell of a lot of good bands out there.
In terms of genre, as you can probably tell, I mostly like indie rock. But I like all sorts, really, it depends on my mood.
Movies
Donnie Darko is the greatest film of all time. FACT!!!
Generally, I like my films nice and indie. That's not to say I hate blockbusters (for example, Borat is hilarious), but low budget, high quality is what I tend to favour. Anything with an 'out-there' narrative (like Memento) I tend to like too.
Television
24 rocks my socks off. Other than that, I love high-concept stuff like Lost, Heroes and Life on Mars.
I've recently gotten into The Sopranos too, which is really awesome. Many call it the best show ever made, but I pass judgement for now...
Books
The Dark Tower (series).
Fantasy, Sci-fi, some horror. Oh, and comedy. Also, I read a lot of games magazines.
Not a lot to say really. I pass my days by reading, writing, meeting up with people, going to college etc. Just normal stuff really. I tend to get obsessed with things on too-regular a basis. One example is The Dark Tower, the best damned piece of literature crafted by human hands! Or typed on a computer, whatever. And in case you're wondering what the video with all the funny dots on which seems to play music is, well that's Guitar Hero. Another addiction obsession of mine. See my sites behind the banners below for more about me and other stuff. Anyway, thanks for visiting, add me if you so wish, and I'll see you soon ;-)
Some of my favourite sites:
The Dark Tower Character Test
You are Alain! Quiet and introverted, you prefer thinking to talking. Even though you aren't that social, you have a kind heart, and will help those in need. You often see things from a unique perspective, but people seem to ignore your feelings. Learn to speak up, and show that you take pride in what you do! Take this quiz!
Who I'd like to meet: Hell, I'll meet anybody!
But in particular, Samuel L Motherfuckin' Jackson, Stephen King, Shigeru Miyamoto and that guy off the telly. You know.
