So, this is a thing I used to do from time to time and I know that it's been a long time since the last one. TWHL has gained a lot of new members over the years, some of the veterans have moved on but a handful are still knocking about.

The question is this: Who are you? What are you into? What do you like and dislike? Share as much as you are comfortable with and no more. This isn't mandatory. It's just a little way of getting to know a few of your fellow members a little bit better

About You

Name: Andy Morris
Age: 33
Hometown: Market Drayton, Shropshire, England
Relationships: 2 previous. Currently married with 2 kids. Intend to maintain that for a while :P
Occupation: Systems Administrator (Junior). Previously web design integration and first line support. SysAdmin is a whole new thing for me and I've got a lot to learn. Keeps things interesting.
Current goal(s): Finish The Core and start working on some of the other projects I've got floating around in my head. I want to write a book but have neither the skill or the motivation to sit down and do it. Professionally, I'd like to advance beyond a junior SysAdmin and take on some more challenging tasks. I've also put some serious thought into winning the lottery.
Politics: I'm not a politically charged person. The whole thing bores me.
Religion: None. I believe you should live your life as you see fit, not based on what some ancient storybook says (or is interpreted as saying).

Favourite Things

Food: I've recently just taken to throwing diced chicken, bell peppers and onions into a pan and stirring in some hot sauce. If I have tortillas in I wrap that shit with salsa and sour cream, otherwise it goes in a bowl. Lush.
Hot drink: Milky coffee with two sugars. Coffee snobs would see me hang for it.
Cold drink: Coke Zero or Pepsi Max. No preference
Snacks: I much prefer savoury snacks. Can't go wrong with a big bag of Doritos and hot salsa dip.
Movies: I'm not big into movies. I like action flicks and comedy if pushed. I'll often rewatch something I enjoy than seeking out new stuff.
Videogames: Deep RPGs and classic FPS games. Loving the current surge of retro FPS titles that are coming out and I will play Doom or Duke3D any day of the week. I'm also really into anything with a branching narrative that offer choice and consequence and as such, can be replayed.
Music: I''ll listen to most genres from classical to dubstep. At the moment I'm mainly listening to indie stuff and synthwave. Artists such as The Midnight, Mystery Skulls and SIAMES.
Other: I spend most of my time during the day with my family and the evenings and night at my desk, gaming or mapping. I'm kind of one-note in that regard, but I'm happy.

Disliked/Hated Things

Food: Fish. I really hate fish. The texture and the taste makes me sick. Tuna is OK though, for some reason.
Hot drink: Tea. Despite being English, I really do not enjoy tea at all.
Cold drink: Supermarket brand cola. Why is it so cheap? What corners are they cutting? Why does it exist?
Snacks: Liquorice or aniseed sweets. Liquorice tastes foul, aniseed is an actual assault of your taste buds.
Movies: Like I said, I'm generally not into movies at all, but I generally dislike the horror and romance genres. Predictable trash in both cases.
Videogames: Sports games. I don't see the point of sports in general. I'm also not a huge fan of strategy games, but I can happily play online, mainly for a laugh. And of course, horror again. Game with horror elements are fine, but all out horror schlock is just boring.
Music: Rap, R&B and most pop music. Just no.
Other: I'm not one for sitting and watching things, hence my aversion to movies, TV and sports. But I also don't enjoy taking part in sports. I just hate sports.

You'd have to be pretty fuckin' bored to bother filling this daft shit out, Urby.

About You

Name: Archie
Age: 28
Hometown: Glasgow, Scotland
Relationships: Serial monogamist. Rubbish at being single. Currently living with my long-term smoosh Anna.
Occupation: Head of Post-Production at a sports media agency.
Current goal(s): I want to write a book but have neither the skill nor the motivation to sit down and do it. Long term I want to establish my own Post-Production House.
Politics: Healthcare, education and inclusivity. I'm a weeping liberal in the current climate. Supporter of Scottish independence, but out of wanting to distance myself from Westminster rather than any misplaced nationalism.
Religion: Supporter of belief, so long as it's not at the expense of evidence or sense. I much prefer people who seek the answer, rather than those arrogant enough to think they know the answer already.

Favourite Things

Food: A big sexy curry. Usually lean Indian, but Thai and Japanese curries are also legit.
Hot drink: Coffee as black as my soul.
Cold drink: Water. Never been one for fizzy drinks.
Snacks: Cherry tomatoes. My time living in France got me into tomatoes and black coffee in a big way.
Movies: Massive movie nerd. Top 5 changes constantly, but usually includes Birdman, Blade Runner, Raiders of the Lost Ark, In Bruges and The Big Lebowski.
Videogames: I used to be a big ol' FPS gamer, but I tend to only play management and strategy games solo (Two Point Hospital and Motorsport Manager are current squeezes) and I really only ever play Divinity 2 online with Urby. Oh I also have a racing wheel and play F12019 a lot. Anna and I play a lot of Mariokart and Smash on the Switch. I just got her Animal Crossing and she's pretty hooked.
Music: Very varied. A lot of rock, a lot of soundtracks and a lot of experimental and melodic hip-hop. Childish Gambino, Logic and Don Broco get a lot of play time at the moment.
Other: Big into F1. Like, majorly. I'm that nerd who watches all the practice sessions as well. I also go to a hell of a lot of live rugby, including the entirety of the most recent World Cup in Tokyo.

Disliked/Hated Things

Food: Cheese. Fuck you, cheese.
Hot drink: Yet to meet a hot drink I dislike. Maybe like an Earl Grey.
Cold drink: Tequila. Dreadful stuff.
Snacks: Liquorice or aniseed sweets. See Urby's answer.
Movies: Movies I have to literally switch my brain off for annoy me. I've only ever walked out of the cinema once, during Transformers 2. Woeful drivel.
Videogames: I used to adore Counter-Strike, but now I can't understand how anyone plays it when it's just AWP-strike 24/7 after round 2.
Music: Easy answer. Calvin Harris, Dua Lipa - One Kiss is the worst song ever to chart. Objectively. I believe it got radio time as a cruel vault-tech style experiment on a global scale.
Other: I don't like people who can't go without looking at their phone for more than 20 minutes.

Oh cool, a thread where we share stuff about ourselves. :D

About You

Name: Admer Šuko (note: the Š is pronounced like a "sh" in "shoe", or more precisely, the "sch" in German, like in "Schuko")
Age: 18
Hometown: Stolac, Bosnia and Herzegovina (well, to be exact, I'm in a village called Ošanjići)
Relationships: 9 previous, none at the moment.
Occupation: Just a high-school student, though I am an assistant to a couple of teachers there, responsible for my own group of classmates etc.
Current goal(s): Getting my idTech 4 game demo done, working on Advanced Development Mod until it's considered feature-complete, then work on Utopia at Stake. Other than that, I badly wanna start a game studio in my country, since there are none. And in life? I wanna make someone happy.
Politics: NO. My country is run by clowns and that's the only thing I can talk about in politics. :walter:
Religion: Not that I am very religious, but my religion is Islam.

Favourite Things

Food: Burek, ćevapi, chicken breasts, pizza. My favourite fruit definitely has to be the tangerine.
Drinks: Pomegranate juice, quince juice, liquid yogurt etc.
Snacks: I dunno. Don't really have any favourites, and I don't even eat them often. Though, I do like chips with tomato sauce flavour or whatever.
Movies: Just like TV, I haven't really watched any since 2015. I don't have any favourites nor favourite genres.
Videogames: I only play through games once. I had great times in Call of Duty 1 to CoD:MW3 and BO1. The Half-Life series is the only exception to my "only play once" sorta rule. Enjoyed Far Cry 1 a lot, as well as the Crysis series. I still gotta finish Deus Ex and Doom 3, I absolutely love those... As for game engines, I like CryEngine 5 and idTech 4. Source 2 SDK will be right around the corner, but I don't think that's gonna be usable for standalone game development.
Music: Disco folk, Yugoslav wartime songs, Haris Kostopoulos, Yugoslav rock, typical Krajina folk stuff, and Yugoslav classics from the 80s. Possibly the most unpopular music taste here, lol.
Other: I'm also into electronics, I got into Arduino last year, and I'm thinking of a project that I could start doing with it one day. Sometimes I go outside and ride a bike or walk, soon I'll be driving a car too. I haven't driven one in 4 years, lol. I generally don't do anything else other than developing or making stuff, school and stuff like that.

Disliked/Hated Things

Food: Cheese. I am not really a fan of cheese itself. Sure, it's good on a pizza, or in certain sandwiches, but alone? Nope.
Drinks: Alcohol and stuff. I for sure will NEVER drink stuff like beer, rakija, vodka, or other alcoholic drinks. Might try wine one day though, just out of curiosity.
Snacks: None. They're all fine. :P
Movies: None that I've watched. I don't watch horror movies because I actually do get scared.
Videogames: Never hated any, except CS 1.6 in 6th grade, but that's a funny story and I like CS 1.6 nowadays. I don't have interest in sports games, strategy games, isometric RPG games, any 2D game out there, any pixel-art style game and so on.
Music: Rap, hip-hop, most things young people listen to in my country (the godawful abomination that started as an experiment of combining folk and auto-tune).
Other: Going to parties or events with lots of people. Smaller scale stuff just works better for me. ;)

About You

Name: Jessica [middle name pending] F.
Age: Mid twenties.
Hometown: Let's say near Brisbane, QLD, Australia. No need to get too specific, you won't have heard of it anyway.
Relationships: 2 long term, one of which is current. I am potently lesbian, and possibly polyamorous? (A moot point given the circumstances.)
Occupation: Currently a grocery delivery person. (Well, not currently currently. The deliveries have been suspended in light of current events, so at the moment I'm... basically doing odd jobs when I'm doing anything at all.)
Current goal(s): Survive. And stream a bunch while I've got the time, I suppose. If we're talking grand dreams, I wanna make games.
Politics: ... Once upon a time I would have said that I don't care about politics. It's a lot harder to ignore when the world sees your existence as inherently political. I've also come to understand that ignoring politics is a position of privilege and, in a way, arrogance. Everyone deserves the basic necessities and opportunities of life, and the world could easily provide it if it was inclined to. We won't get there by not caring.
Religion: As long as it doesn't harm others, believe what you want. You don't have to understand someone's perspective in order to respect it. On a purely personal level, I have no grand beliefs about the nature of the universe.

Favourite Things

Food: Can't go wrong with a good roast. Or a steak. Or... I guess what I'm trying to say here is that I love meat.
Hot drink: I generally go for a chai latte. That said, I think on the whole I prefer cold drinks.
Cold drink: Caramel thick shake! If I'm trying to maintain some semblance of health (like I probably should), Pepsi Max or just plain water!
Snacks: I'll take what you got. I'm not terribly fussy when it comes to snacks!
Movies: I'm really not much of a movie person. I have a small selection of old favourites, but I don't often go out of my way to see movies, and even less often do they stick with me. I guess if I had to name a single movie, I'd say Spaceballs.
Videogames: Monster Hunter, Castlevania and Dark Souls I think are my three favourite series. (I've always said they're directly equatable: Monster Hunter + Castlevania = Dark Souls.) Genre-wise, I'm eclectic.
Music: I don't discover new musical loves often, but it's passionate when I do. My collection tends towards 70s/80s rock/prog rock, but that is by no means exclusive!
Other: There's only one sport I've ever been able to get on board with, and it's about as far from traditional sports as you could get: VGCW. (I really need to get back to watching that.)

Disliked/Hated Things

Food: I have never been on board with mushrooms. I don't care for the taste, and good god do I not care for the smell.
Hot drink: I'm not much of a coffee or tea drinker, but I don't hate them.
Cold drink: I don't like orange juice. Most juices I can get down with, but for some reason orange is not one of them.
Snacks: Can't think off the top of my head of a snack I would not partake in.
Movies: As previously mentioned, I don't watch many movies, so I don't get much of a chance to develop dislikes. Actually, you know what? Disney. I don't even care about their films that much, but their growing monopoly on the film industry is concerning.
Videogames: Quest for Camelot. I will not be taking questions at this time.
Music: I try not to passively dislike music based solely on sound, but there really isn't much modern music that has grabbed me.
Other: People who try to gatekeep or invalidate other people's identities. Sexuality, gender et al are flexible as hell and you don't get to tell other people who they are.

About You

Name: Oskar Larsson Högfeldt
Age: 17. +/- 10 years.
Hometown: A village outside Falkenberg on the west coast of Sweden
Relationships: One. Ongoing for 2½ years. We had to do long distance for 1½ years which was painful, but she was finally able to move back to me a month ago and we're happier than ever
Occupation: Software developer. Mostly web with React, and NodeJS servers, at the moment. Working on payment systems. I feel like studying law some time in the future - took an intro course and found it exciting
Current goal(s): Save up some money to buy an apartment. Would like to try life in another country, though that would have to wait a few years until my girlfriend can become a Swedish citizen. I'm working on a game engine. Would love to finish that some day
Politics: My opinions often align with social democracy, social liberalism, and the Pirate Parties.
Religion: None

Favourite Things

Food: Palak paneer
Hot drink: Coffee or hot chocolate
Cold drink: Weihenstephaner Hefeweißbier
Snacks: Yes, please
Movies: All kinds: romance, comedy, action, horror, sci-fi, documentaries, drama, musicals... RoboCop (1987) if I have to name a favourite. Or maybe Kung Fu Hustle. They're both hilarious.
Videogames: Alone: Life is Strange (play this!!!!!!!!!) and Deus ex. Couch: Halo (1 or 2) or Tetris vs Puyopuyo. LAN: GTA2 or Rainbow Six 3. Online: I play online games until I get tired of them :( Battlefield 3 perhaps. Or Warcraft III.
Music: The Cranberries. The Strokes. The Cure. The Killers. The Planets by Gustav Holst.
Other: You

Disliked/Hated Things

Food: Most meat, and the ones I like (such salmon) I try not to eat too much
Hot drink: Sweetened coffee
Cold drink: Rat piss? Haven't tried it
Snacks: In Taiwan and Japan they put sugar on popcorn. They should be saaaaaaalty!
Movies: I try to avoid anything with Scientologist actors. Best not to finance their crimes.
Videogames: MMORPGs. It's not that they can't be fun. It's that they're too easy to get hooked on and before you know it you've lost a year of your life, or more. Happened to many of my friends. Plus they require you to be very social to enjoy them fully, and half the time I play games is when I don't feel social, because I've been social all day already.
Music: The autotuned, soulless music the record labels pay radio stations to repeat all day every day for months. And any music that's put on just to kill the silence. I love music, and silence is beautiful music too.
Other: Fox. They cancelled Firefly, Dark Angel, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and Dollhouse. I loved those shows, and Fox only gave them one or two seasons each. They're all still very much worth watching.

Posted 4 years ago2020-03-28 12:30:15 UTC Post #343978

About You

Name: Those who know, know.
Age: 24
Hometown: Wee shitehole in southern Scotland
Relationships: 2 terrible ones previously, currently living with my GF in London. All's good!
Occupation: Lighting technician for a lighting rental company. Hope to become a freelancer within the next couple years and get my ass on tour.
Current goal(s): At some point when I have expendable income, I want to start experimenting with 3D printing and VR. Current events are showing me that you can't really do any form of training wrt. manual labour when working from home, but you could learn how to repair and inspect things in VR. Problem is, just like with mapping, I'll furiously focus on a project for a day max, then struggle to find any motivation to continue on with it and procrastinate... think I'll need to look at that at some point. Not now, maybe sometime tomorrow. At some point many, many years down the line, I may want to revisit my university degree.
Politics: Left wing, but not to an obscene degree. Disagree with identity politics, something that seems to be becoming more and more prevalent. Pro Scottish Independence, but similarly to Archie, not because of nationalism.
Religion: I'm atheist through and through, but completely respect and acknowledge how important religions are to culture and society. No time for those that use it to justify hatred or cause harm onto others, though.

Favourite Things

Food: I'm pretty much a human dustbin, I'll eat anything. A good burger, chilli or spag bol will go down a treat.
Hot drink: Can't beat an English breakfast tea. A flat white or black coffee will also go down a treat.
Cold drink: Passionfruit Rubicon. Get in me.
Snacks: Insane sweet tooth. Tiramisu, a good chocolate fondant, cake, anything with "Ben & Jerry's" on it...
Movies: Anything that is tongue in cheek, self aware or incredibly atmospheric and immersive. Loved Blade Runner 2049 and Joker, but really have a soft spot for Robocop 1 & 2, Dredd, The Matrix and the likes of Evil Dead / Army of Darkness. I struggle to watch the same movie twice within the space of a few years.
Videogames: Used to be really into FPS games, but have found myself playing a load of sandbox games, like Stormworks, Factorio and Cities: Skylines. I love Metroid but haven't played it in ages, still waiting for Prime 4...
Music: Listening to a lot of video game soundtracks and the likes The Prodigy / Pendulum when I was younger made me listen to dance music and electronic music a lot more than contemporary and traditional styles, save for a few artists. Listening to a lot of deep Detroit house & techno ATM.
Other: I sing, a bit pitchy.

Disliked/Hated Things

Food: Aniseed, (most) fish & fennel can get tae. And miso, anything that tastes like I've just swallowed seawater is nothing short of torture.
Hot drink: Anything sugary. Don't know why, but stuff like sweet tea, lemsip etc. makes me gag.
Cold drink: Tomato juice. No.
Snacks: Anything with coconut. The creator of Bounty is a sociopath.
Movies: Generic schlock, horror, and films that give away their entire story in the trailer. Really can't handle films that are just jumpscares.
Videogames: MOBAs, card games and schlock.
Music: Modern trap / rap, and any modern song that samples an entire riff of chorus from another with little to no alteration. Will.I.Am is really guilty of this, it just screams a combination of lack of talent and relying on people's memories of older songs to boost it's popularity. Sampling is such an incredible thing when done correctly, but copy & pasting entire segments of songs is cheap. Again, not massively fussed about contemporary music.
Other: People calling espresso 'expresso'. Winds me up something stupid.
Instant Mix Instant MixTitle commitment issues

I'll be honest. A lot of the motivation with this thread was to see people get fired up about their dislikes for my own amusement.

About You

Name: Ezry B.
Age: 20 (seconds)
Hometown: Smalltown rural ohio (yeehaw)
Relationships: Currently in one, it's lovely
Occupation: Self-employed
Current goal(s): Graduate University & get my degree in accounting
Politics: Force is the ultimate authority. Nothing given has value. In order to defend Western values and assure the god-given rights of men we must defend ourselves from those of ill-intent, militarily and culturally. The West is losing its sense of meaning and identity as globalists/postmodernists develop a hatred of their own individuality and freedoms. The people of the Western world are so satiated with freedoms that they are begging governments to come and strip them away. Their governments have grown large and powerful. Their power is exploited by corporations to serve the interests not of individuals, but of consolidated groups. Our media, supply lines and many major companies are controlled by Chinese interests, the governance of whom are enemies of freedom and human rights. Hong Kong, one of the few bastions of liberty and free market capitalism is being crushed by the authoritarian regime. The United Nations, too, is dominated by Chinese interests, its members refusing to recognize the existence of Taiwan. Our politics are being arbitrarily divided. Deus Ex was right. The European Union is an MJ-12 front to destroy any semblance of individual nations or cultures, erasing the borders between to create one titanic super-government. Our culture is a sewer. We have lewd media. We're sexualizing young girls to the point where even I have a problem with it. Half-Life's outlook on unchecked immigration is bleak, but accurate. Donald Trump is simultaneously a bumbling imbecile with ADHD but also a cultural icon and hero for free market capitalism and the American identity. Socialism is an ideology dominated by upper-class white elitists with unfounded moral superiority. The government does not give us our rights; rather, their purpose is to defend them. The United Nations has an incorrect definition of what a "human right" is; they define the "right to work" as a human right, yet they do nothing as governments across the globe are shutting down business for the sake of stopping the coronavirus -- last I checked, rights are pre-ordained by our Creator (whoever you may believe that to be), so either these rights don't actually exist or the UN is weak and unwilling to stand for anything. Our systems of social security are built off of the backs of children, yet the people of this nation see no duty to reproduce and ensure future generations will continue to contribute to these systems. The only real human right that exists is the right to property. Sex is a spectrum. Gender is a man-made construct, as is race. Dancing is a violating of human rights. Free healthcare isn't the worst idea in the world, but a much better one is to destroy the concept of "health insurance." Personal responsibility is a greater value than utilitarianism 9/10 times. Ayn Rand had some funny ideas, but also some really good ones, too. Carl Benjamin was a good politician. Pedophiles are trying to co-opt the LGBT movement and how I feel about it depends on whether the science is in on the whole "born this way" argument for them. Sam Esmail had some brilliant political commentary in his tv show Mr Robot (which may be the best TV show ever made) but his Twitter is a garbage heap. Did I mention that nothing given has value? Starship Troopers was unironically the ideal model for society. Nationalism isn't inherently bad - dare one say, the idea of seeing nations as individual self-determining entities is inherently good! Communism is conspiracy to commit mass murder.

About You

Name: Andrew Lucas
Age: 27
Hometown: NA
Relationships: None. I was never in love my whole life, ever.
Occupation: CPP Programmer.
Current goal(s): Publish my first two books, finish writing my three planned books, finish my Half-Life mod.
Politics: I've lost faith in this long ago.
Religion: I have my own beliefs in and relating to God. I pray to God to show me the way, whenever I feel the presence of evil or I feel lost and confused. God has saved my soul numerous times and helped me atone for my sins/misdeeds.

Favourite Things

Food: Beef, pancakes, fried eggs with bacon, apples, bananas, milkshakes, chocolate.

Videogames: Raven City
Music: I can't stand modern pop music, or most rap music either. Love songs are particularly annoying for me.
Other: Loud noises and constant noise that wrecks your concentration. Large crowds of people in cramped spaces, because that activates my agoraphobia even more than just going out for work every day. Being tired most days beyond just the normal tiredness that comes with the burdens of life. Accidentally eating some food that end up making me feel sick or even worse. I greatly fear Soul Murderer-type people and narcissistic predatory types who have a sixth sense for sensing people who are vulnerable to their manipulation. The HD packs for Half-Life. Oh, and the original MP5 view model from Half-Life 1. And the original shotgun's arm.

Force is the ultimate authority. Nothing given has value. In order to defend Western values and assure the god-given rights of men we must defend ourselves from those of ill-intent, militarily and culturally. The West is losing its sense of meaning and identity as globalists/postmodernists develop a hatred of their own individuality and freedoms. The people of the Western world are so satiated with freedoms that they are begging governments to come and strip them away. Their governments have grown large and powerful. Their power is exploited by corporations to serve the interests not of individuals, but of consolidated groups. Our media, supply lines and many major companies are controlled by Chinese interests, the governance of whom are enemies of freedom and human rights. Hong Kong, one of the few bastions of liberty and free market capitalism is being crushed by the authoritarian regime. The United Nations, too, is dominated by Chinese interests, its members refusing to recognize the existence of Taiwan. Our politics are being arbitrarily divided. Deus Ex was right. The European Union is an MJ-12 front to destroy any semblance of individual nations or cultures, erasing the borders between to create one titanic super-government. Our culture is a sewer. We have lewd media. We're sexualizing young girls to the point where even I have a problem with it. Half-Life's outlook on unchecked immigration is bleak, but accurate. Donald Trump is simultaneously a bumbling imbecile with ADHD but also a cultural icon and hero for free market capitalism and the American identity. Socialism is an ideology dominated by upper-class white elitists with unfounded moral superiority. The government does not give us our rights; rather, their purpose is to defend them. The United Nations has an incorrect definition of what a "human right" is; they define the "right to work" as a human right, yet they do nothing as governments across the globe are shutting down business for the sake of stopping the coronavirus -- last I checked, rights are pre-ordained by our Creator (whoever you may believe that to be), so either these rights don't actually exist or the UN is weak and unwilling to stand for anything.

About You

Name: Megan Lee B. (which initials spell out an acronym for one sport that I actually enjoy)
Age: Mid-twenties.
Hometown: One of the worst towns in Michigan, Snover (https://975now.com/avoid-these-least-liked-small-towns-in-michigan/).
Relationships: Single.
Occupation: Student as of right now, but COVID-19 has made that harder.
Current goal(s): Finish up school, get a job in the tech industry, and hopefully finish several projects I've been working on (for the past decade).
Politics: Far(ish) Left
Religion: Apathetic Agnostic

Favourite Things

Food: Pizza. Seriously, you can throw almost anything on a pizza and it'll taste great.
Hot drink: Couldn't tell you. I don't even drink the typical hot drinks when they're hot. I guess I'll just say (iced) coffee.
Cold drink: Soda and fruity alcohol-containing drinks. Coke is choice number one for soda, though.
Snacks: Gardettos' Powdered Mustard Pretzels and their Chex Mix competitor (as well as Chex Mix itself).
Movies: Fight Club, John Carpenter movies, B-movie Horror as well as just B-movies in general. I can really only name one movie as a favourite since it's the only one that has literally changed my life for the better in the end.
Videogames: DOOM (all the way up to the expansion for the third game), Burnout series, Killing Floor 1 & 2, Half-Life: Opposing Force & Blue Shift, Ratchet and Clank series, Twisted Metal series, Gauntlet series, Gran Turismo series, there's a lot. I'll just stop here.
Music: Industrial, Electronic, Rock, Alternative, Grunge, etc. I could go on for awhile listing all the subgenres.
Other: I love to collect physical media and big PC game boxes. I also love to share rare music with the world as I feel like I shouldn't hoard it for myself.

Disliked/Hated Things

Food: Remember when I said pizza could have almost anything put on it and taste great? Well that doesn't include you, you dirty pineapple pizza eaters.
Hot drink: Dunno.
Cold drink: Hard liquor. Sorry, not a fan. (Though there is a scale for me where some liquor tastes so damn awful that it rolls back around to tasting good somehow.)
Snacks: I can't think of any snacks off the top of my head that I dislike.
Movies: Blade Runner (Yeah, sorry. Deckard as a character is boring and the movie is pretty to look at but feels ultimately pointless following his character. Would've much preferred watching Roy's character instead.), generic run-of-the-mill comedies and romance movies, bad sequels (or reboots) to movies I already love.
Videogames: DOOM (2016), System Shock 2, games with an excessively long grind or pay2win mechanics. (I actually don't really dislike very many games at all, it's mostly just bad sequels to games I've already loved.)
Music: Modern country, a lot of modern rap and hip hop, repetitive electronic music, and modern pop as well, not sure about anything else.
Other: I hate being depressed and tired all the time.
