    Who would you be and what would you do.

    I would be Mystique from X Men and I'd just go around creating havoc.

    Robinson Crusoe. After he'd built the gaff out of palm trees and met Man Friday to do all the work.

    Bit of peace and quiet sitting about on a desert island chomping on coconuts for a day.

    Judge Dredd.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    Tyrion Lannister but I wouldn’t like having a yard cut off my legs.
    The wine and women would be ok.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,498 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Lara Croft.

    Wouldn't get up to much, just a quiet day in on my own.

    I don't in any way resemble this person, but the character I would most like to identify with is Alexei Kirillovich Vronsky, a character from the greatest of Russian novels, Anna Karenina.

    An unlikely and a hidden hero -- you have to search hard to find his salt -- he's not obviously heroic like Levin is; Vronsky is occasionally weak, ocasionally strong. He can be a pussycat or a tyrant as his circumstances demand. He has something nobody else in the novel has : balance. He is the balanced man, the sort of man whom Yeats idealised in his poems about Major Robert Gregory.

    "Soldier, scholar, horseman, he,
    And yet he had the intensity
    To have published all to be a world’s delight"

    I don't think any of us can live up to the standard set by Vronsky/ Major Robert Gregory. But it's probably worthwhile to have a go anyway.
