I am confident, brave, heading towards bi-lingual, living in a foreign country in one of the greatest cities in the world. I am happy, witty, attractive and afraid of no-one. I have some great friends and a supportive family.


I am middle aged, balding, greying, too skinny and with bad posture. I work in tele-marketing for little money. I live in one room. Ladies, form a queue.

I am simply delightful! I'm clever and funny and cute and kind and warm and generous and have *EVER* so many friends. And I'm loyal. I never let anyone down. I'm patient and courteous to all and I am a marvellously sentimental, comforting sort of person to be around.

I'm also depressing, stubborn and revoltingly selfish. I whinge and am able to turn any situation bad simply by seeing the bad side of it. I am lazy and sulky and I don't pay attention. And sometimes I have the most appalling temper. I'm overwhelmingly gloomy and negative.

I'm highly intelligent, well educated, witty, engaging, and confident in most social situations. I'm very good at making people fell better about themselves. I support the people around me and help to the best of my ability. I'm also a pretty capable multi instrumentalist.

I'm lazy, spiteful, and outrageously self centred. I help mostly only when it suits me and I leave others (usually my girlfriend) to do work that is actually mine. I'm condescending,smug, and far too convinced of my own superiority.

Calm, fun, easy going, thoughtful, inquisitive

Angry, sad, loner, lost, shut off.

I'm totally awesome.

And super cool.

Denfeld, you might be my hero.

Good looking, charismatic, funny, friendly, and cooler than the other side of the pillow.

Sometimes super-lonely, single, broke, cynical, and I have the extra social-anxieties.

I can be a Caring, loving, trustworthy, flirtatious, confident, attractive, funny, creative person you'd want to be around

or I can be;

A spiteful, annoyingly doubtful, clingy, self-destructive, self-obsessed, self-repeating, whining drunk with bad breath and nicotine stains you'd do your best to avoid.

The life and soul of the party, always willing to help people out.

Or

An irritating drunk who doubles as a doormat.

I'm clever, independent, suave and uncompromising, culturally well-rounded and good at being part of a team. I'm also a loving and attentive boyfriend who instinctively understands his partner's changing needs.

I'm an arrogant, insecure autodidact with no inner monologue, bad skin and personal politics that would disgrace a sewer rat. In my relationships I specialise in turning passive aggression into an art form.

This is fun! We should nickname this 'the Gollum thread'.

In Mind


There's in my mind a woman
of innocence, unadorned but

fair-featured and smelling of
apples or grass. She wears

a utopian smock or shift, her hair
is light brown and smooth, and she

is kind and very clean without
ostentation-

but she has
no imagination

And there's a
turbulent moon-ridden girl

or old woman, or both,
dressed in opals and rags, feathers

and torn taffeta,
who knows strange songs

but she is not kind.

I am smart, very good at my job, good looking and sensitive. Always willing to help a friend move or listen to someones sad story to make them feel better.

I am a self absorbed loser in a shitty job that is the best I can hope for. I am overweight and an idiot prone to violence against inanimate objects.

I much prefer the answers in this thread which are not lists. The ones which are not lists are fascinating (see the beginning and the eld of this thread). The ones which are lists read like bad dating ads.

On one side, Papers is funny, incisive, considerate, hard-working, and fiercely loyal. As a boyfriend he puts effort into being romantic and sweet as much as possible. He will try to be as flexible as possible to accomodate others, and generally feels strongly one way or another about things, rather than merely "meh." He seeks to treat everyone fairly and understand those around him, and tries to work on his own prejudices (both internalized and not). He has sophisticated tastebuds and will try most any kind of food, although he's a vegetarian. He won't foist his vegetarianism on you. Poet, dancer, swashbuckler.

On the other side of the page, Papers is burdened by almost automatic sarcasm. He's antisocial, misanthropic, prone to extreme polarity (love/hate). He can be terribly passive-aggressive with his lovers (If he says, "It's fine" -- it's not fine, for the love of Gods, don't think it's fine!). He often feels unfairly put upon and complains about being overworked despite it being his choice. Is unduly concerned with working to exhaustion out of a need for security and maintenance of his sophisticated lifestyle. Often needy, prone to obsessive thinking and neurotic over-analysis. Impatient, tempermental, and doesn't dance well with others. Pretenious and judgemental.

I'm intelligent, witty, beautiful, confident, distinguished, sophisticated, with a perfect body, friends who value me, friends I value, with a lifestyle I love in the best city in the world.

I'm average, mediocre, dull, shy, undistinguished, frail, my friends are nobody, as I am to them, my lifestyle is pathetic in the most depressing city in the world.

Sweet, supportive, energetic, thoughtful, funny once in a blue moon. Someone who does the right thing even if the sincerity of the act gets lost a little. Someone who realises that a little self-analysis goes a long way. Empathetic. Sweetheart. Genuine Smile.

Narcississtically monomanical dullard who looks like a potatoe and acts like he just drank a bottle of buckfast and chased it with a bag of cheap speed. Rambles on. Self-concerned. Idiot.
