Might I add Sympathy for the Devil on bagpipes & bongos, or is that too much? =)
Being manic-depressive makes it too hard to figure out what cartoon character I am, because depending on the moment, you can be any number of them. Ren & Stimpy both, depending on the situation. Milk & Cheese when I'm doing baaad things. I think I would most like to be Gerald McBoingBoing, who discovers that his terrible "handicap" is actually a benefit, and ends up making money doing it. Anyone around want to hire a crazy person?
I feel pretty much the same about violence. The last bad thing I did was kick in a wall (I think that was after I slugged that guy). I feel stupid and bad and unbalanced for a long time after too. I was also unmedicated. Note to self: don't be unmedicated.
I react to people telling me what to do badly as well, but for even snobbier reasons... I rarely think anyone is smarter than I am, so why should I listen to them? Pat answers, not seeing the human behind the "problem"... hurp. I tend to prefer to end up doing nothing rather than doing something that is bland and stupid. "But no really, you can join our anti-agoraphobia group, we meet wednesdays in our soccer mom jogging outfits and go for walks in malls"... hurrrrrr.
I find myself talking like the author writes, as well. =)
Honk. At least I have an insanely interesting dream life to make up for my normal one. I have a happy life, undoubtedly, but flying is hard to beat.
Honk honk!
