Things I Like, March 26 Edition

1. Ben Folds and Ben Folds Five. I don't care who thinks he's overrated, he's one of my geek heroes.

2. High-speed internet.

3. xkcd.

4. Gosford Park. I'd forgotten how much I fucking love this movie. The characterization is fantastic, the casting is unbelievable -with Helen Mirren, Derek Jacobi, Clive Owen, Maggie Smith, Stephen Fry, and Ryan Phillipe, among others- and the dry humor is brilliant. I really can't think of enough superlatives to describe it, so just go watch it right now.

5. The Goops' cover of "Build Me Up Buttercup." It's the one played in Mallrats. This is the movie tie-in music video, featuring Jay and Silent Bob (duh).





6. Sleep.

7. Cats.

8. The Garden State soundtrack. Even if the movie wasn't great, its awesome soundtrack would compensate.

9. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

10. Doctor Who and Torchwood.
