What the is this?
Comic books, rock 'n' roll and movies. I like to think that I've matured past 14-years-old but I suppose you will have to be the judge of that.

The Five Things Meme

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

I dig Sean Collins so much that I just had to partake in a meme the man has come up with. Here are five things my friends (some of who you can here) are into but I just don't get.

1. Dungeons & Dragons. For that matter, any gaming. I'm no fan of any form of competition at all.

2. The DC superhero universe. There's many good superhero books DC has under their belts but I guess I have never been able to shake off the image that most kids develop when they start reading comics about how Marvel's the company that "speaks to me" and DC are the old fuddy-duddies . Actually I've been pretty good at forgetting Marvel's anything close to young or hip (hopefully most kids today have realized that as well) but it's the latter that I can't rid myself of.

3. The Cure. "Love Cats" and "Boys Don't Cry" are good and maybe a few others but if I had to listen to an album of Robert Smith's voice I'd kill everyone within a ten mile radius of my being.

4. Horror movies. To be exact I love a great horror film like The Exorcist or Dawn of the Dead but it's nothing that I can see myself having as part of my "nerd cache" (although I will always love Corey's site, which is a testament to how damn good it is). For the record the contents of my nerd cache are The Beatles, comics, The Simpsons and chocolate cake recipes.

5. Star Trek. Dorian once said that almost all that is wrong with sci-fi can be traced to Star Trek. It might be one of the most right-on statements my ears have ever had the luxury of listening to.

Now it's your turn.
