15 is an awfully small number, but here's them wot came to mind first

Thu, 23 Jul 2009 03:56:57 -0500

Not the best 15 books you’ve ever read, or even ones you’d recommend to others. Just 15 books that have made their mark on you and will always stick with you, for whatever reason. Supposed to be done in 15 minutes.

1. Fight Club - Chuck Palahniuk
2. 1984 - George Orwell
3. To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
4. Arkham Asylum: a Serious House On Serious Earth - Grant Morrison
5. Crush - Richard Siken
6. Choke - Chuck Palahniuk
7. Dark Tower: The Gunslinger - Stephen King
8. American Gods - Neil Gaiman
9. Metamagical Themas - Douglas Hofstadter (Although I haven’t read all of it)
10. Where the Wild Things Are - Maurice Sendak
11. A Fly Went By - Mike McClintock
12. The Killing Joke - Alan Moore
13. Blank Composition Book
14. Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman
15. The Audacity of Hope - Barack Obama

Given that it is currently 3:56 A.M., I’m not sure how truly qualified my list is, but most of them were books that have really influenced me, especially the top five. And yes, two are graphic novels, two are children’s books, and one is a school supply. Sue me.

Bizarro

This reminds me of facebook.

Remember when Bizarro was just pun after pun and Dan Piraro wasn’t apparently a cynic who dislikes human nature, politics, and society as a whole? Yeah, I try not to.

Importing my iTunes history to Last.fm made a pretty huge difference. In my perspective of myself. I knew I was a big Elliott Smith fan, but damn.

I know have enough not-sucky Christmas music to post one song every day until Christmas. I hope you enjoy at least a few of them.

“Twilight, a film based on the popular book series about teenage vampires, recently opened with $70 million in ticket sales. And that can mean only one thing: None of you assholes are allowed to complain about taxes ever again. Jesus Christ… I don’t care if you did buy the tickets for your teenage daughters. You people deserve tax relief like Kim Kardashian deserves a Nobel Prize.”
