Bomb ass fat boy food
Alone somewhere enjoying the view while drinking a brew and smoking a cig
A quiet morning with coffee.
Thunderstorms.
Turbulence (I love seeing people getting all fidgety)
A good steak or bratwurst.
Cheap domestic beer.
Anything that goes boom.
Winning an argument that ends up changing their opinion.
Parents that do not allow their kids to act like shitheads in public. (Mainly only see this with Hispanic and black parents)

A freshly brewed cup of Coffee.
A bacon roll with brown sauce.
hauling my ass to the gym and feeling all the better for it.
an engrossing video game like skyrim.
Eating. A dangerous one, that. All kinds of different foods too - very rare for me to come across something I can't appreciate. Sometimes I wonder if I have hypersensitive tastebuds because I swear most foods taste stronger and better to me than I can identify in the reactions of others.
I used to wait tables at a Chinese Restaurant. They'd cook up these big platters of traditional Chinese food and throw them up on the counter for the lunch staff to dig into, so we got to eat a lot of traditional stuff that wasn't on the menu. Was killer.
One time the older Taiwanese hostess (owner's sister) was just sitting there watching me and smiling. I asked her what was up and she commented that she loved watching me eat because I enjoyed it so much.
Side note: did not bang but wanted to.
Stupid horsepower under my right foot.
New York Strip.

Steak and wine
Peace of mind might be my favorite
Soccer: scoring in competitive play
Jumping over a taller player to head the ball away
Scoring a goal, either in hockey or soccer, competitive or not (Nascimento beat me too it). Also, laying out a great open-ice body check, or a perfect slide tackle.
A good cup of coffee in the morning.
Lifting a weight at the gym that you didn't think you could do.
Falling asleep knowing that you don't have to get up anytime soon.

I loved catching passes in football, and scoring in soccer but I'd have to say the most satisfying, exhilarating sports experience for me is hitting an extra base hit in baseball. The pressure and tension leading up to the moment, a decisive swing-- then the split second of excitement after the crack of impact when you know it's gonna be a hit, as you take off at full-on sprint towards first base-- the first base coach waves you on...
There were never fences on the fields I played on when I was younger but I can imagine hitting a home run would be just as amazing.
"Scoring a goal"
How did I forget that one!!
Especially, when its a heated game and a lot of people are watching.
Also, hitting the game winning shot in basketball.
Playing basketball in college was one of the great thrills of my life.

Making my android do something I didn't think was possible just a few years ago!
And music. Especially music with viper mod! Lately I've been listening to all kinds of music non-stop since I put that thing on my phone!
I also enjoy helping fellow rooshies with androids - I feel like I should give something back since this site helped me a lot!
I also like an occasional joint, and slowly puffing cigarette smoke with lights off when awesome music is playing.
Back squats. All sorts of exercises were mentioned; deadlifting was mentioned too. Surprised to not see "squats" four pages in.
Flexing in the mirror at the gym after arm/chest day when no one is watching.
