Getting to know That F'ing Monkey

While looking over site stats the other day I made the happy realization that more and more people are coming to the site.  Obviously that’s the point; if I just wanted to talk to myself I wouldn’t need to put things on the internet.  But what I meant was, when the site started 99% of the readers were people who knew me in real life.  I’m thrilled that it is changing, so I figured Brandon and I could share a little bit more about our likes when it comes to the F’ing Monkey mantra of Comics, Games, and Booze.  Some of the answers will be obvious to readers here, but one or two of Brandon’s answers surprised me.  As per the usual, I’m in grey and Brandon is in Green.
