I'm a bibliophile...
Favorite tv :
Err, I don't watch much...
Scrubs, To Catch a Predator, Food Network Nighttime, Twilight Zone, The Colbert Report, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Comedy Central Presents..., and, as a guilty pleasure, I like watching documentaries about people with weird ailments (usually entitled something like "The Half Ton Man", "Half a Woman", etc.). Also, Tom and Jerry has been known to make me giggle like a child.
RIP: Rocko's Modern Life, Aah! Real Monsters, Ren and Stimpy
Favorite movies :
I like drama, comedy, and psychological films.
Some of my favorites are Garden State, V for Vendetta, Juno, Elephant, Knocked Up, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Rent, Benny and Joon, Peter Pan (the recent one), Ten Things I Hate About You, Princess Bride, About a Boy, Romeo and Juliet (both the modern one and the '60's one), American Beauty, Virgin Suicides, Donnie Darko, Clerks (1 and 2), Fight Club, Breakfast Club, and I don't think I need to list any more.
Chances are if the one of the above movies is also a book, I liked the book 100x better.
I'm an optimistic pessimist and an introverted extrovert. I'm super liberal. I'm a vegetarian, but not the obnoxious kind. I love to read and write, and I'm not so good at "About Me" sections.
