1. Raw onions are gross

2. The Doors are vastly overrated

3. The Kinks are vastly underrated

4. Motorcycles are stupid

5. Helen Hunt is not a good actress nor is she attractive. I find her repellent for some reason.

6. Pepsi is gross

7. Aside from MLB and NHL professional sports in the US suck.

8. People that don't create, in some form or another, are not worth my time

That's an interesting one. But when I think about it, I have very few close or long-time friends that are not creators in some form.

I love this list SO MUCH despite disagreeing with some points... this is so perfect.

I thought I would catch more hell for the Helen Hunt thing. Apparently, I'm not alone in this.

funny enough - I went through a real Helen Hunt phase... I liked her on Mad About You and a couple other projects... she was kind of... my irrational Hollywood crush... not terribly attractive, not the most amazing actress... but for some reason I was drawn to her.

And then for no particular reason, that unknown reason disappeared... and now she's somewhere between "meh" and annoying.

I created a biomorphic, site specific installation every day.

In the toilet.

It's kinda scary the level of bullshitting you can easily do if you go to art school

You create adventures and share them here. You are a creative soul. No doubt about it. There are lots of consumers out there. Consumers and critics. Not of fan of that lot.

Funny, I was about to say The Doors are underrated. It seems like popular opinion has really turned against them in the last few years.
