His favourite music style is hip hop, in fact he says he lives a parallel life as a rap star.

I’m not sure who is alter ego is but it’s somewhere between van damme and jay-z

As far as lyrics go, he is becoming a teacher this year. He teaches french and history. He loves playing and coaching soccer. He especially loves van damme and segal movies.

we fight about which bread is better (he says soft white, I say chewy);

he says “L-Bombs” when he’s talking about love, in fact there are many metaphors he uses about ‘dropping l-bombs’, ‘heat seeking missile’

phrases he (over)uses: ‘light and fun’ when something or someone is fun / lighthearted, ‘icecreamery / fish and chippery’, light and funnery’ (note the trend for using that ending??), ‘light and funnery’, ‘look out!’ as an exclamation for something surprising or appealing, ‘chocs and chocettes’ (long story, but describes italian gym junkies and their girlfriends),

i refer to my friends as ‘swingers’ and he finds that weird.

he is really embarassed about seeming like a nerd, but i love him for his dorky hobbies: painting little models (warhammer something); and playing ‘baldur’s gate’ on his computer, which he calls his ‘nerd box’. he always gets really shy about these, but i want to reassure him that i think they’re cute
