While sitting here unable to sleep or constantly dealing with my stomach problems or neurological issues, I've decided to simply ask who you've always wanted to be when you grew up? I've doubted my own intelligence or ability to articulate even the most menial of theorems or ideas until recent, but it seems that I've changed almost overnight to want to become more... enjoyable of life. Alan Shore (as played by James Spader; The Practice 2003-2004 and Boston Legal 2004-NOW) He's brilliant, articulate, manipulative, deceptively kind, reserved, zealous, and everything I've come to admire when it comes to intelligence. I know and quite readily accept that my girlfriend, who undoubtedly read this post grow tired of me saying that I idolize him, but I haven't a clue what it is in particular why I want to be him. I could become another version of one of my favorite antiheroes, El ingenioso hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha, as well? Where's the nearest windmill?

Has anyone read Swallows and Amazons? It was my favourite book for so long when I was a kid. I always just wanted to be part of that family. So bad.

Well I have never solidly wanted to be anyone particular. A serial killer? No a James Bondesque spy... Idk.

I wanted to be a famous harp player. Then my mom said we couldn't afford harp lessons, and handed me a violin instead. :(

I've always wanted to be a mother...my entire life, that's what I wanted. It's just always felt like a calling to me, more than almost anything else (save for writing, but that's more like breathing to me--comes naturally and I have to do it in order to survive). It's kind of weird, how a lot of more "intellectual" people tend to look down on me for wanting this, but *shrug* That's their problem, not mine.

...simply ask who you've always wanted to be when you grew up? 
And you came up with a fictitious character? Sad is the day when man loses his sense of self-identity. 
Sad when you are too quick to win an insult without realizing that the attributes I've listed do, in fact, exist apart from the fictitious world.. Granted, you never struck me as bright to begin with, sophos, but are you so much a troll as to not understand when its more tacky to pull a quip even when it isn't called for or warranted? Also, do you read, or is your limited understanding of the world around you restricted to whenever you read your own ignorant attacks against people who are less stupid than yourself?

Yea but i sucked at the violin. hardcore. so then she convinced me that meant i would have been a terrible harp player anyways...and handed me a trumpet, which i begrudgingly played for 6 years. :( 
I hated how I had been forced to play the cornet for 6+ years, myself. Admittedly, I was a far better percussionist than I ever was as a horn player, but we all learn from our mistakes. On a minor note, I've always seen you more as a flute player, personally.

Why the hissy fit? Perhaps you are slowly realising that your obsession with the Alan Shore character stems from some repressed homosexual tendency. And perhaps you believe that by becoming a manipulative womaniser, you can hide this truth. Nonetheless, your idolisation of a shallow television character, to the point of aspiration, pitifully illustrates your simian intelligence.

Me calling you an ignorant troll is comparable to a hissy fit? I've been calling you that ever since our first attempt at a failed conversation, perhaps its taken you this long to realize I wasn't joking? As for any number of characteristics you care to share over my idol, I hadn't slept with my best friend's mother at 16. Nor am I a 40-year-old high priced litigator or anti-Trust lawyer? I've never smoked cigars and haven't much care for scotch.. on second note, not as often as he'd care to. Could I call you the scarecrow, and how long must you be waiting for that brain to finally come about?
