My name is Richard Zimmer. I dream of living in Iceland some time in the coming years.
I have a twitter, this tumblr, I contribute posts on The Three Amigos and some other things... that are coming soon.

HDTV (the little there is), photography, architecture, desktop publishing & design, advertising, cooking, bonsai trees, random shows, intelligent girls, being melancholy, quitting jobs, changing my mind, old cartoons, drum loops, sleeping underneath the stars, hard wood floors, materials that feel good on my naked body, meeting people, watching Fashion Television, directing short films, people with strange idiosyncrasies, habitually changing clothes, pajamas, weather that isn't too cold or hot, going ice skating with people who've never been and pushing them over, writing music and playing guitar, bass, keyboards, drums, robots, high fashion, candle wax, women drinking, rain, cranking the music really loud, analyzing situations, acting, rice candy, collecting books I'll never read, making weird art, calling everything art, thinking, making other people think, finding magic, being a realist, burlesque / vaudeville, bright colors, my solitude, good conversations.
Long walks at night, electrical devices, technology, people with sexy smiles, intelligence, painting, irony, sculpting, expanding my mind, sarcasm, restoring vintage furniture, getting emails that aren't spam, going out on nice days by myself, my dog, making people happy, singing really loud in the car, 80s synth pop, hanging out w/ friends, perfectly made lattes, names that are uncommon, the sound of certain words, admitting when I am wrong, thinking people are innately good, discussions that end with "You have your opinions, I have mine and that's a good thing."
People that speak their minds, flowers, clouds and strong wind, the anticipation of a first kiss with someone new, the sound of crashing waves and birds singing, sunrises and sunsets, when it's neither light or dark outside, people who are genuine, a clean house, printing things; instead of reading them from the screen, sitting on the floor, fresh fruit, trying to understand what drives people, crime stories, mystery books, reading in general, adventure and being surprised, eating with chopsticks, sensitivity, being practical and finding solutions, ice, walking in snow, talking to myself and my dog, eating with my hands, learning new things, knowing a bit of everything.
Experimenting, variety, connecting with people, getting bored by something easily and moving on, saunas, dark wood furniture, buying bargains, being in bed, day dreaming, imagining the impossible, climbing trees, black and white photos, originality, contradictions, telling people to mind their own business, staring back when someone stares at me; until they look away, white lies, not answering the phone, asking questions, paradoxes, girls with sexy lingerie, thunder and lightning, whispering, thoughts that seem to come from nowhere, becoming a super hero, observing human behavior, lucid dreaming, gathering life experience and understanding for my memoirs, slow foods.
Planning, sex, the music scene, privacy, my Apple Computers, reading a good book while drinking vegetable juice, cooking delicious food, vinyl shopping, making out, driving, really bad horror films, waking up alone, decorating, going to movies, sneaking into pools, jumping on trampolines at night, cross word puzzles, feeling, finding myself, listening, cleaning, waiting, punishing myself, whiskey (Jack Daniel's), scrabble, being healthy, working on new projects, concerts, finger painting, strange sounds, hot baths and showers, friendly people, bubble gum, movies that don't make sense, traveling when I can afford it, digital cameras, old broken cameras, people with strange faces, honesty, trees, scented oils, laughter.
Trying new things, zombies, anatomy, all things Japanese, short films, nudity, classic cinema, nostalgia, researching topics, playing records, making dark rhythmic death industrial noises, my innumerable obsessions, psychology, electro-clash, documentaries, clean sheets, ikea, words, manipulation, addiction, naps, estate sales, cutting things up, tragic endings, writing things nobody will ever read, taking pictures that i can't afford to develop, obscene jokes, intoxicants, sleazy hotels, mini bars, driving ranges, birth control, saving the world, soda pop, chap stick, alien abduction stories, espionage, Jolly Rancher candies, narcolepsy.
Keeping childlike wonder alive, select substances, hysterical laughter, delirious sleeplessness and philosophizing after dark, dorks, melodic distortion, hot sex in public places, vegetarianism, animal activism, environmentalism, 1920-1960 eras, anticipation, breaking rules, abandoned buildings, art that makes my jaw drop, writing that makes my mind hurt with its truth, smoothies, foreign culture, subtitles, image editing, depression as a lifestyle, skipping classes, stereotyping people, trying not to stay in one place for too long, Ebay, flashy lights, ninjas, caffeine, being a nerd...
Dislikes...
Socializing too much, people that eat loudly and/or with their mouths open, rotten food in my refrigerator, having an itchy back and not being able to scratch it, watching the news on TV (It disturbs me and confirms what a fucked up world I live in), fighting with people over stupid things (when I am right or wrong), dancing, having to go to the doctors, Microsoft Windows, popular things; unless I was using or doing it before, being talked down to, when girls play games with my head, hurting people and their feelings, people who drink and drive, sweet foods, wasted talent, talentless superstars, Governments, humanity and consumerism, narrow minded fools, over opinionated assholes, closed minds, bigots, racists, fascists, arrogance, conceit, rain in december, racial stereotypes, being forced to listen to "certain CD's", genocide.
When girls have too much make-up, strong perfumes, fake nails, fake boobs, shopping for clothes, empty headed giggly girls, when people come to my house without calling first, people that think just because they think they know me it gives them the right to criticize my decisions, snobs, materialistic, superficial, cynical, rude, unfeeling people, animal cruelty, people being angry at me, smoke, loud people, not typing with all my fingers, small TV's, waiting in line, waiting for people, being late, breaking promises, gossip, being the center of attention or public speaking, violence, terrorism, politicians and lawyers, slow tours, celebrating my birthday, people who can't say "I'm sorry", walking barefoot, when people are shocked by something I do or say...
