I like...

I like a lot of things. A LOT of them.

I like hot, fresh coffee. I like doughnuts (I do not like lemon ones). I like the the first two Grateful Dead albums. I like cold, over-priced beer. I like cold, under-priced beer. I like Camel Lights. I like Steve Martin movies. I like books by Carl Hiaasen. I like comic books. I like blogging. I like my Volkswagon Jetta. I like the Los Angeles Dodgers. I like my parents. I like Merlot. I like my record player. I like being barefoot. I like the Mind Bender. I like golfing. I like it when people laugh at my jokes. I like cheap champagne. I like TiVo. I like my laptop. I like fresh herbs. I like being carefee. I like my friends. I like black and white photos. I like the ocean. I like being organized. I like big, fresh stacks of ruled paper. I like rainy days. I also like sunny days. I like people who smile. But mostly, I like kites.

I do not like death metal. I do not like beets, canned peas, or hot carrots. I do not like a certain accountant. I do not like snakes. I do not like racists. I do not like ketchup. I do not like the GOP. I do not like people who judge other people's interests. They are one's own interests, there is no need to apologize for, let alone explain them to anyone at all. By calling someone else's interests "dorky" or "lame" you, by all intents and purposes, are a cunt. I do not like the word "cunt."
