General
music, movies, cooking, video, travel, interweaving random ideas and non sequiturs into a conversation, languages, absinthe, accents, dialects, historical courtisanerie, molecular gastronomy, spicy food, stinky cheese, smoky scotch, tea, raw fish, noodle soup, guacamole, the post-imperial third world, frequent flier programs, office lottery pools, helping my talented friends become famous, taking over the world
Music
anything good, and nothing bad--unless it's so bad, it's good...i'd put "2 Much Booty in Da Pants" on my profile page, but the automatic streaming music thing is kind of a peeve of mine.
Movies
anything by Quiz Bowl, F for Fake, Back to the Future, Man Bites Dog, La Haine, Big, Unmade Beds, Stop Making Sense, Little Miss Sunshine, Dangerous Liaisons, Saragossa Manuscript, A Bout de Souffle, Labyrinth, The Making of Michael Jackson's Thriller, Royal Tennenbaums, Indiana Jones, Dog Day Afternoon, Some Like it Hot, Human Traffic, Persepolis, Z, Splash, Beijing Bicycle, Y Tu Mama Tambien, Amelie, Trainspotting, Cidade de Deus, History of the World Part I, So I Married An Axe Murder, Shaun of the Dead, Gattaca, Mannequin (the theme song alone makes it amazing), any film with synchronized swimming in it, video art in the style of Bill Viola, Nam Jun Paik, Funki Porcini, etc...animation by William Kentridge, couldn't say his full lengths go in my favorites category, but I can say that Michel Gondry is my hero
Television
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart--I kinda have a thing for Stephen Colbert, too, Arrested Development, Charlie Rose, Iron Chef (Japan), Family Guy, Soul Train (especially late 70s/early 80s reruns), Amazing Race, Boondocks, In Living Color, Spaced, League of Gentlemen, AquaTeen, Alton Brown, Food Network (before it became the white trash cookoff network), Antiques Roadshow--aka the most gangsta program on tv, Globetrekker, Reading Rainbow, Square One Television, House of Cosbys, Night Court, Quantum Leap, Peep Show, Spaced, the "Visions of:" PBS series, The Maxx, The Tick, Takalani Sesame, The Critic...I'd watch more tv if it weren't for the fact that I'm so busy and had no cable. No, I am not at all above watching TV. Sorry.
Books
haven't found a favorite--although I prefer non-fiction to fiction...especially the Prince, Joy of Cooking, Timeout travel guides, Please Kill Me, Michel de Montaigne, Autobiography of Malcolm X, The Language Instinct and the Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopedia. I usually don't like magic realism, but i liked 100 Years of Solitude...and Secrets of the Model Dorm. By the way, does the Wikipedia count as a book?
Heroes
anyone with enough nerve to rock out on a New York City dancefloor...and my parents....and my friends....and Michel Gondry....and Steve Reich...Orson Welles....and Ferran Adria...and....E-40--of course!
