My vegetative state of can't-be-arsed for a lot of things. I admire/envy/hate (randomly) people who can, go and do stuff.

More realistic - my first name (of directly religious meaning) and surname (prone to misspelling and derogatories). National law doesn't allow this.

Not sure, I like being who I am.

I guess if I could change anything it would be my height. I'm comparatively short compared to most men so I lose out on relationships. Then again anyone who goes for tallness rather than personality probably isn't worth anybody's time anyway.

Hmm, nope then. I'm happy.

If I appied my mind to a given subject instead of bull**** I would be far further than I am in life, far too many things distract me! My mind needs to know everything at once and because of this I never really focus properly. Perhaps a failing or maybe it defines me, I'm not sure!

If you could change one thing in your life,

regardless of the possible consequences,

what would it be ?

what would it mean for you ?

Would you change anything ?

I would like to change my lazzy habbits..

many time i thought i'll do something for myself, but i didn't... i wanna be a punchual.

>.>; <.<;

When I was 21(I am 28 now), I attended an Anime Convention in a nearby city and ended up meeting an amazing woman who, to this day, I have found no equal. The thing I would change is the fact that I introduced her to my friends before capturing her interest and she ended up with another friend of mine.

The only thing that would prevent me from changing this, if I had some sort of time machine or something, is the fact that she and the man she is with now produced the most amazing little girl I have ever met. :-P

I wish I spent more time with my father. I wish I could tell him I forgive him. So many things have happened since he passed, that I wish I could just share with him. I wish I could have at least shared one drink with him. Just one.

Like others- probably appreciate the ones I have lost more, taken more time listening to my late Grandfather's stories he used to tell (he was blind and loved to tell stories that as kids we thought were boring), and build a stronger relationship with my Dad who passed in 2007.

There was this girl that I liked for ages, we were one of those weirdly close best friend type deals and I thought I had been friend zoned. A year ago she got together with this guy and she really likes him, a couple of months ago one of her other friends was talking to me and she asked why I had never made a move on the girl and I said it's because we were just good friends and that I did like her but just didn't think she was into me. Then her friend told me that she had liked me for about 2 years and she kept flirting with me but I just ignored it. I'd convinced myself that she didn't like me so whenever she flirted with me I acted awkward or brushed it off thinking it was a joke and because of that she gave up and went elsewhere.

I've changed that now, and not just when it comes to woman, if I want something to happen then I don't just sit around telling myself that it won't or waiting for it to happen itself, I make it happen... or at least try :p

So long story short the only thing I'd change is the timing of me growing some balls to a year and a half ago!

Earlier in my life I would have said my height. I'm between 5' 5" - 5' 6" and I used to want to be taller in my late teens / early twenties, but to be honest it doesn't really bother me anymore.

Can't really think of anything else, maybe a better memory? :p

I would love to have an excellent work ethic, and not see it as a huge life downer that stops me from enjoying life.

I've got something about work I wish I could change, not sure if it relates to you or not,

I look at people who work, work as a whole, and then life, and I see one thing only,

You work to live, and you live to work, then you get a few years as a grey old person, then you die.

I've got a bee in my bonnet about that, I continuously think, "What TF is the point in life if you spend your days doing something you hate / if you're lucky, like, but still spend your entire able life working just to live ?"

Kinda makes life pointless imo, I know and 100% understand you can not rely on others to survive, and work is 99% of the way out and away from that, but you know what, I disagree, I would prefer to live life in a wooden cabin, miles from anyone, living off the land and have my life to myself / spend with my partner, than donate 90% of my life to someone who needs sausage rolls put in a cardboard packet (example)

My life is mine, and yes I have to pay for what I want, but I would prefer to be without than (and if this was possible) look down at my life in fast forward and see the young me, turn into the old grey me, having done sweet FA other than worked for someone my whole life for no other reason than to be alive....

    • Sorry I mean your back rest on your Herman, can you move the back say 2cm then lock it? Then realise 2cm isn’t enough and you want an extra 1cm then lock it into that position? Basically like in an older car seat, you turn the knob round until you get the back recline precisely where you want it, this is what I found the Herman wouldn’t do
    • WTF? I am not taking a video of myself to access a site or to create an account. What are they thinking? I don’t even have a webcam on my main desktop PC. The powers to be are really looking to normalize the taking of pics or submitting ID for everything. I afraid most people will end up just going along with it.
