[...That is weirdly intimate and it is making him feel a Thing. Several things actually. Most people could care less to ask what he likes. There's a pause, a definite lull in the conversation, because he is both stunned and uncertain.

Well, I've always had a thing for gymnastics, but I do a lotta that out in the field, soooo...
[look who is getting REALLY bashful now]
I like stand-up comedy specials, I guess? Or, anything funny that's either so bad it'll drive me into a fit of hysterics or... The stuff that, like, took a lotta work to write, obviously? The brainy-shit that makes you think a little bit.
[a-ah... //// this i s weird]
When it comes to food, I like it hot! You know- Spicaaaay? And with meat, oooh, and lots of it! I'm not so much of a fish guy, but bring on the lobster, baby! Oysters are good too, 'specially when you drown 'em in hot sauce.
Ooh! I also like to take a peek at all of the weird shit you happen to find at 7-Eleven. Sometimes I'll pop in around 2 AM and see what wackass sandos they've got hangin' out on the shelf. One time I found one that said it was ham but it looked more like somebody sliced off a piece of an ear and stuck it between some moldy pieces of bread. Wild!

...What about you? So, I know you're into nerdy shit. Anything else?
