Truth be told, I have no problem with Bill Maher. I kind of like his show on HBO.

Also: Steely Dan! I had unorthodox study techniques in school involving Steely Dan.

I really like Real Time and really liked Religulous, Bill Maher's movie. The only time he gets on my nerves is during his monologue when his hackey jokes don't get large guffaws he acts like the audience gasped and lost their collective monocles. Also, when he goes off about being a vegetarian and how we're all killing ourselves with toxins.

You don't have to like/hate everything about somebody because you like/hate some things. The ****s were some real assholes, to hell with them I say. You got to admit they knew how to dress though.

wait....too far?

I loved Frank Zappa as a teenager. Don't adore his music the way I used to, but I still listen to it on occasion.

Ditto on earlier "I like it!"s for Tom Waits, jazz, and baseball.

Also have a soft spot for Steely Dan, since my mom played it a lot in our house when I was growing up. They don't take themselves seriously enough to inspire much hate, IMO.

Stuff Tom seemingly everyone hates that you like.

Trent Reznor. Not only NIN, but the Saul Williams album as well! (I liked the self titled SW album as well, but not the Rick Ruben produced one).

Alternative country, including Ryan Adams, Wilco and forefathers The Band.  Recent Bob Dylan albums and Soupjam Stevens.  Hockey, Baseball and Boston Sports teams, especially the Celtics... as seen in our sparring sessions on Twitter... Come to think of it, Boston, Massachusetts in general.

Check Tom's unfair record review of 'Come on feel the Illinoise'.  You'll discover that that's the correct pronunciation of Mr. Stevens' name.

I'm always surprised by how much Tom knows about the alt-country genre and that he still dislikes it. I think he dropped a Burrito Brothers reference in the unfair record review for Ryan Adams. Maybe Tom likes the Brothers and not Ryan Adams; is it the genre as a whole or just particular artists that Tom dislikes?

I like the genre as a whole.

I also love the MN Twins (so, baseball, by association) and I'm not a big basketball fan.

I used to not like Abba but Tom has (like so many other things) turned me on to them.

Wilco, blues in general, The Room, Kill Bill, Lord of the Rings (to a degree), multiple types of food, and probably a lot of other little things.

Interestingly, not much stuff Tom likes that I dislike. Not that I can think of, anyway.

Dairy Queen! It's the only ice-creamish thing with barely any dairy that doesn't taste like chalk. Where would I be without it?
