5 things:

1. plain cream cheese on hotdogs (only certain hotdogs)
2. ketchup on grilled cheese sandwiches
3. cold hot-chocolate
4. rocket power
5. exteme cold

i don’t know if this is actually liking something, but every other sentence out of my mouth pertains to punching something in the face (mostly completely inanimate objects and stuff like "work"). also, i love ketchup on mac and cheese.

2)CPAC (The Canadian Government Channel)

3)Watching the news coverage of Election results

4)Stopping at every museum I can get to on a trip, or in my hometown (Did you know there’s a contraceptives museum in Toronto?)

I didn’t realize that people don’t like dill potato chips. I love them. OK, I’ll give this a try…

1. The stuff on old videotapes that wasn’t what I was trying to tape originally (commercials, network promos, the beginning of the 11:00 news before the timer ran out…I’ll fast forward through the shows to get to that stuff.)

2. The Miss Virginia Pageant. It’s got that cheesy, local TV quality. Everytime I try to show it to anyone, even when I fast forward to the funniest, extra-cheesy bits, they act like I’m killing them slowly.

3. Deviled Ham sandwiches with mustard.

4. Soft Rock. I blame it on my parents for listening to it when I was a kid, thus giving it a nostalgic quality for me. I love being able to sing with every song.

5. Christmas shopping.

Bonus: Nerdy guys. I was always attracted to them. I married a Star Wars-loving, Heroquest-playing, hatchback-driving computer programmer and I’d take him over a beefcake any day.

Matt- the blog link on the ghost w/ most page goes someplace else

1-bitterly cold weather (I pretty much hate hot weather)
2-radio and tv countdowns, even if I hate the music/topic
3-Ronald Reagan
4-long road trips through the middle of nowhere (in cars and on trains too)
5-Cassette Tapes

Squee, I totally read that comic every day. Not cause I enjoys it (I don’t hate it). More for the way it always makes me wonder, WTF?! Why is she just lying down across 3 frames? or whatever random position she has put herself into.

Chestnuts roasted by kb @ 09/30/2005 10:39 AM

1. Traditional folk music
2. Pepto-Bismol (it tastes like those pink chalky candies.. yum)
3. Theology
4. Renaissance Fairs
5. Renting documentaries from the library

So, uh, Ryane, you wouldn’t happen to be around age 24 and live in Boston, would you?

WHAT? She said she likes vegan food and that she has no boyfriend! I’m not sketchy… just painfully single.

Chestnuts roasted by Vegan Mike @ 09/30/2005 10:44 AM

1. Listening to soothing people talk, like Bob Ross or sewing ladies on PBS.

2. All the Christmas specials and Christmas themed Golden Books, I have dozens, they bring me holiday cheer

3. Counting down till Holiday season starting in the middle of summer

4. The smell of dead leaves

5. Finding a big glob of earwax on the Q-tip even though you clean your ears everyday

Chestnuts roasted by Funky Boo Berry the 70's Ghost @ 09/30/2005 11:00 AM

1. Degrassi, including the new series
2. "We Built This City" by Starship
3. Natto (google it if you don’t know. I think it tastes great)
4. Grammar, and those who are ridiculously strict about it
5. Bad jokes. Bad puns, jokes in poor taste, jokes at the wrong time, and the whole nine yards.

And a whole lot of other bad movies and TV shows and music… geez… I must have *something* weirder than those 5… oh well

Chestnuts roasted by Vegan Mike @ 09/30/2005 11:03 AM

8)smell of a fresh box of crayola crayons

Chestnuts roasted by gerv @ 09/30/2005 12:10 PM

As per usual, pulled out of my head like a magic trick gone horribly trippy:

3. Ren’s "You like what I like" speech from "Space Madness."

1. Keeping track of Barbie’s standing on the toy market. (a good barometer of the industry in general) Whoever decided that all her material possessions be pink should be shot.

Q. Collecting various "Famiclone" all-in-one games. I just really dig those NES pirate systems.

?. The version of the Dunken Scotsman joke that is sung. That’s the best way to tell it.

. Just being strange in general. "Why do you have to be so weird?" they ask. "Why aren’t you being weird?" I reply.

I also have the Game Boy Godzilla game. One of the best puzzle-type games I own.
I also like you, and you, and you, maybe you, I’m not sure about you. and I might marry you, if it wasn’t for the way your dog looks at the computer. And you? I tolerate you.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 09/30/2005 12:19 PM

1. lima beans
2. Viscera
3. obscure NES games that everyone hated, but i loved! (Shatterhand, Werewolf, etc.)

that’s all i’ve got.

Chestnuts roasted by Review the World @ 09/30/2005 12:22 PM

1. Holiday Spice Pepsi – I believe I’ve made my feelings known on this before

2. Christopher Lloyd – Mostly because of "Doc" from Back to the Future (I even sent him a letter to get an autograph when I was in the 6th Grade, and he actually sent me one!)

3. The color grey – so blah, but so appropriate most of the time

4. The Detroit Lions – they suck, but I will still cheer for them until I die.

5. The Worst Witch – seriously one of my all time favorites, no words to describe the sheer joy Tim Curry’s "music video" brings to me

Chestnuts roasted by Mr. Boligarky @ 09/30/2005 12:26 PM

wait wait wait, who doesn’t Christopher Lloyd?

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 09/30/2005 12:41 PM

other actors

Chestnuts roasted by big jerm @ 09/30/2005 12:49 PM

Wow, too many people wrote what I’d put on my list so it was a real challenge to find 5 things I haven’t seen on this thread yet.

1. Detroit Tigers (i’m not from MI & i don’t love sports)
2. Mixed Nuts (the movie)
3. Leftover Cold Pancakes without syrup or butter and eaten with my hands like they’re big giant cookies
4. Movies/Music/TV older than me
5. Reference Books

RewolfJ- I love Titus! I’m still the only person I know in real life to have watched and enjoyed the show (outside of my parents). No one else knows what I’m talking about when I mention that. Lame!

And I also do the ketchup on potato chips thing… and mashed potatoes! I like to mix in the ketchup until the potatoes turn orange.

Chestnuts roasted by Rainbowfeet @ 09/30/2005 1:27 PM

Heh kb you made me smile. I think of those as "filler strips" and they are usually my least favs. I prefer when they’re making erudite references that go over my head.
Kyle’s prediliction for eating stuff off the floor is still sending me into paroxyms of germaphobia. I bet you’re either sick all the time, or never at all.
Some of y’all are reminding me about how even after my spectacular failure as a veggie I still preferred Morningstar fake’n bacon to the real stuff (not anymore though). I also recommend Soyrizo for people that like chorizo but are put off by the whole "eating salivary glands" bit.

Chestnuts roasted by squee4242 @ 09/30/2005 2:11 PM

LuLu –I get the tape thing! Scotch tape (3M) smells like pineapple to me.

Okay. My list.

1. Forget the fragments I just typed. I DIG GRAMMAR. I particularly like obscure rules about seldom-used punctuation marks, like the Herald of Lists, the Colon.

2. Etymologies. I think the only reason I stay in grad school is to have access to the OED online through the university’s subscription. (Did you know…’baby-daddy’ dates from the 1970s, in the Caribbean…?)

3. I love hating Andie McDowell with a fiery passion. I think she’s beautiful, and I love her voice. I just don’t find her believeable as a person, much less a person who colours her hair, much less a character in a movie. She’s a black hole of good acting, draining the light out of other actors’ performances. [interrupt rant to continue with the list]

4. Being sick. I like the attention when folks tell me to go home or to take it easy. I like the lack of attention as I spend days in bed. And fever-induced delirium fucking RULZ.

5. Smelling my kitties’ breath when they yawn. Other folks don’t so much like my kitties’ breath.

Chestnuts roasted by Lisa Marie @ 09/30/2005 2:14 PM

Lisa Marie,
Way back in one of my first postings to the site, I mentioned the amazing experience I had listenng to Pink Floyd’s "The Wall" while in bed with a high fever. I recommend it to anyone who, like me, isn’t into the whole recreational drug thing. Buy youself some concept albums for your next bout of the Plague. You think Lazer Zepplin is cool? Try some Fever Floyd, man!

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 09/30/2005 3:22 PM

1. Tums(the chalky kind, not that "smooth" crap)
2. The Gate
3. Super Mario Bros: The movie
4. Really heavy rain
5. I can’t think of another thing right now.

1. Tums(the chalky kind, not that "smooth" crap)
2. The Gate
3. Super Mario Bros: The movie
4. Really heavy rain
5. Oh yeah. Turning my air conditioner to full blast and then piling all my blankets on top of me.
