Okay, it's time for us all to confess some of our sins. I'm not a priest... or Catholic... and I don't believe in God... but hey, confession is cathartic, right?
So come on, everybody. Let's confess our dirty little secrets. I'll go first:
• I just don't think Michelle Obama is attractive. I just don't. I can't help it. She's smart and witty and a wonderful person, but she just doesn't do it for me physically.
• I think the movie Red Dawn is awesome and I don't care if it's right wing bullshit. WOLVERINES!
• I've been avidly following a fan-made webcomic based on Doctor Who which is basically a tremendous fan wank where all the Doctors and most of the companions fight almost all of the villains. And I love it. I look forward to every new installment. And now it's ending and I'm sad...
• I once walked around a large shopping area with a group of people wearing Santa hats at Christmas time caroling 1980s TV theme songs off-key.
• Eric Idle and I once met in a park and our dogs played together and I pretended not to know who he was because I was scared of turning into a blubbering fanboy.
• I used to get into bars when I was under 21 by going to small Indiana towns and pretending to be a British reporter doing stories about life in America. It worked every single time.
• I've never seen The Godfather or Apocalypse Now and I have no plans to do so. Not sure why, they just don't appeal to me. I like other gangster and war movies.
• And speaking of war movies, every time I'm sick, I watch the movie A Bridge Too Far because, despite it being a gruesome war movie, something about it is very comforting to me.
• I like disco music. In a non-ironic way.
• Every time I go into a voting booth, a little demon in the back of my mind says, "vote Republican just to fuck with the system. No one will ever know! Muahahahahahaha!" So far, it hasn't worked, but you never know.
• I'm writing this in my underwear.
Whew. That feels so much better!
Edit: Thought of another one....
• My dream woman is Carol Kane circa 1980.
