Movies: major payne, chucky [i love it when he jumps on some chumps' neck and kicks his widdle feets.. so adorable.], zoolander [and pretty much everyone in that movie], all the spinal tap peeps, and best in show peeps for shaginaw.. love levy in that movie, and guest as the bloodhound guy.. and the people that met drinking decaf low-fat lattes at starbucks while reading ll bean catalogues and they have adult braces.. jay and silent bob, and dante and the other guy.. bad santa is great character, as is the jewish chick with a santa fetish.. too many..
TV: lenny on law & order. the fresh prince. johnny bravo.
Books: Non-Fiction- Ibn Battuta
Fiction- probably Kilgore Trout [yes, BOC, but don't forget timequake!]
too many choices for fiction though.. Pi Ying in All the King's Horses, Harrison Bergeron, Rask in c&p, i could go on and on..
comics: asterix, the turtles
