Should you happen to run into me somewhere, and want to talk about something non-technical, I can probably go on for hours about any of the following:
- Folk- and country-rock from the '60s and '70s (e.g. Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, John Prine), and their post-punk successors (e.g. The Triffids, The Go-Betweens, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds)
- PC Games from the '90s, especially RPGs (e.g. Ultima 7, Baldur's Gate, Planescape Torment) and adventure games (e.g. Full Throttle, King's Quest, Grim Fandango)
- Literary fiction (e.g. Haruki Murakami, Philip Roth), and some choice poetry (A Shropshire Lad, The Dream Songs)
- British comedy (e.g. The Fast Show, Ideal, Garth Marengi's Darkplace)
- Test match cricket, especially during the Australian summer
