    Generally speaking a good plan is to pick someone behind the counter in your local video store.......my Arch Nemisis works in Extravision would you believe!

    Well I always had a bit of a problem understanding women. I want to hate them but I can't.

    I thought i had at least one, but I obviously don't, I feel empty now :(

    My nemesis is sea creatures generally. The only exceptions being mermaids and sponges.

    Thinking of people I don't know but would probably not get on with in person I have rated the following as they popped into my head (the higher the number the more I'd hate them)


    David Beckham (8/10)
    Prince Harry (9/10)
    Prince William (8/10)
    Michael Stipe (8/10)
    Prince Charles (10/10)
    Jim Carrey (11/10)
    Lars Ulrich (99/10)

    I see a pattern emerging here :eek:

    You only hate famous people?

    To be a real arch enemy somebody must warrant that level of hatred - they must have a certain level of intelligence and/or evilness.

    Therefore I don't think David Beckham could ever be anyone's arch enemy. He just don't got what it takes upstairs.

    I want to add the following to my list above:

    Jeff_Lebowski (9/10)

    Spanish students....there are hundreds of them around for the summer and are surely evil and coordinated... blocking access to all entrances etc... children of the corn, all carrying the same yellow back packs causing mayhem...

    I'm upgrading my threat assessment of the aforementioned due to his witty respones:

    Jeff_Lebowski (10/10)

    There's only one person great enough to be my nemesis: God.

    Dig a pit outside McDonald's and cover it over with leaves and branches. Then leave one milkshake balanced precariously in the middle to entice them.

    HA! HA!

    more Pinky and the Brain than James Bond style dealing with nemesis but I like it.

    what about the collateral damage? Would this not make more enemies?

    I reckon your arch enemy should be spam leaflet distributors....

    Cover your letterbox in superglue, and they'll stick like fly-paper.

    Wasting your life in a leap of blind faith.
    Wake the **** up, can't ignore what I say, I got my own philosophy.
    I hate everyone equally, you can't tear that out of me. No segregation -separation, just me in my world of enemies.
    I never, said I wanted to be God's disciple. I'll never be the one to blindly follow. I'll never be the one to bear the cross-disciple
    I reject this ****in' race. I despise this ****in' place.

    Be your own arch nemisis- it will lead to funny confrontations.

    I was trying to guide you to a more pacifist way of thinking of how to deal with them but instead I think I've turned you into the ultimate spanish student nemesis....the spanish student bogeyman if you will.

    No...the gentle pat on the couch seat and a "come hither and feast upon these sardines" look is way better.:D Quite sexy too, I might add.;) ;)

    Oh cloaked specter, I see there before me on the turf the gauntlet metaphor tossed. My proverbial sword is drawn (and I didn't cut myself to reveal the naked blade). Removing a glove from my left, I strike your countenance with profane intent. What better way to foster the beginnings of an adversarial relationship?
