in case you're wondering what becomes of bands featured on the 'now' series…
my brother's band opened for blessed union of souls a few years ago in columbus. oh yeah, the show was in a parking lot outside of a festival. the headliners of this parking lot jam? fellow has beens rusted root. in addition to these…

also
z.d. and j.g.l. in '(fivehundred) days of summer'.

glaring omission
all those self absorbed cunts in 'sex in the city'. i can't believe there was a seven season tv show, a movie, and a sequal about four of the most loathsome, shallow, money grubbing whores to ever walk in front of camera. "but they're modern women, looking out for themselves, treating men the way…

i'm sure one of the other thousand+ responses has said it but just to make sure…
javier bardem's anton chigurh from 'no country for old men'. he's a relentless killing machine and a man of few words, two excellent components of a bad ass. but beyond that, the scenes in which he torches the car, steals exactly what…

duped
i was "tricked" into watching this because a generally reliable film critic with the initials c.g. said it was a solid horror movie with a decent twist. that seemed like a solid endorsement.

best part of house of wax?
the paris-hilton-head-impaled-fellatio sight gag

sedaris
any of the essays david sedaris wrote about his mother's struggle with, and ultimate passing from, cancer certainly deserved a spot on this list, especially if 'the room' made it. those excerpts are some of the few moments in which sedaris' ascerbic wit/neuroses are met with any amount of pathos. hilarious…

picks from the fuuuuturrrrre!!!!
the library fucking in 'atonement'. welcome to bonertown, population you!

weird al
"christmas at ground zero": … and if the radion level's ok, i'll go out with you and see all the new mutations on christmas day

organ
the bulk of the thanks for this instrument being ruined rests squarely on the shoulders of the doors. but just generally speaking, if the the band you're about to see sets up a hammond (esp. the b-three) or a roland prepare yourself for some wanking.

cattle decapitation
any/all of their artwork fits the bill but 'to serve man' and 'humanure' are particularly unsettling.

two huge, glaring omissions
bender - because he would tell you himslef, he's the greatest

beck!
"mexico" and "satan gave me a taco" are both hillarious, albeit weird, story-songs.

classics
i feel obligated to listen/watch/read so-called classics, but am generally bored with them. i find that most "meaningful" or important movies or books generally leave me cold. most recently i subjected myself to 'platoon' becasue i thought, "hey, i've never seen this, but i think i should." what a wast of…

to be myself completely…
the weirdest thing i'm a completest about is me. i have to have everything i've done in some way or another. every mix or compilation i've made? i have a playlist for somewhere. the art or the idea for it? stashed away.

totally fucked up
mark leyner's 'the tetherballs of bougainville' is a thuroughly confusing, ultimately hilarious novel about writing.

but the holidays
winter here in cleveland means one thing and one thing only: great lakes brewing company's christmas ale. a great malty ale made with honey, spices, and orange peel. that it has a nice bitter, piney, hops finish is even better. that's it usually clocks in at seven to eight% abv is best.

holy shit!
thanks for selecting my question!

dudes, wtf?!??
no 'donnie darko' anywhere?

good list…
too bad 'tha carter iii' (and any other weezy endevour for that matter) are total fucking shit.
