I spend my days researching how people watch movies, and my nights watching them for myself (movies, not people; unless you count Facebook).  I am wildly obsessed with laughing, almost to a disturbing degree, actually.  Last year I took a pilgrimage to Second City Chicago (my hometown), and I think I freaked them out with my torrential comedy factoids.  I was like a boy scout at the Natural History Museum.

My day is incomplete without Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, and Conan.  I worship at the altars of Ricky Gervais, Judd Apatow and Tina Fey, and once dated a guy for three months because he could quote “Waiting for Guffman” as I often as I could.  It was approximately 80% of our dialogue.
