I'm looking for what you'd change about yourself, it can only be within the realm of possibility, meaning you'd change your skin color is not qualifying as something you can change. You can change the fact you are broke, but not your intelligence. Understand?

I'm comfortable with who I am.

I'd have all my busted bones completely replaced with new ones grown from my own stem-cells in a lab.

Fair enough, but wouldn't that be a pain to get the bones inside?

i would get rid of my obsessive/compulsive/addictive behaviors and tendencies towards things, that i think are destructive and unhealthy. things like food, caffeine, sugar, nicotine, marijuana, alcohol, and in the past sex. just about anything can be used and abused like a drug if you try.

Yeah, quite painful I reckon but sooo much better in the long-run. Just to have one day pain-free. That would be great.

So we're essentially talking about the same kinds of things that people typically resolve to change about themselves when they make a new year resolution.

I simply want to get into better shape. I've chubbed up a bit and I hate it. I guess the thing that I need to change about myself before that can happen is the laziness that stops me from incorporating more exercise into my lifestyle.

It would be more interesting if you told us what YOU wanted to change about YOURSELF first.

I'd change where I live.

I would be Britney Spears!

:xctd:

I would have sex with Britney Spears.

Assuming Beer is not, in fact, a dude for starters.

I'd also be less narcissistic and controlling, maybe. No, strike that: I am great.

Why do you always make these depressive threads?

Nvm, i would change alot of things, actually i would change everything.
Except my awesome intellect-boosting beard.

Also, Britney Spears is objectively ugly, poor quality voice and overall sucky.
She is not sexy.
Ok, so you know those girls on magazines tv and movies that are attractive but you're all like "nah shes not hot i dont like her, blah" but if in fact you did meet one of them in real life you would be drooling all over the place?
Ye, she's definitely not one of them, quite the opposite.

Lies.

You're just making a strawman argument with of her over critical humility.

I wish my hair was thicker, and I wish my feet were prettier. My toes are really ugly. I wish my ears were smaller. And my nose could be smaller too.

I want to be skinnier...and I'm working on it.

I want to have a Master's...and I'm trying to figure out how to get enrolled in a 4-year school (paying for it being the fun part)

I wish I didn't have any emotions... but I doubt anyone will allow me to get an elective cingulotomy, even paying out of pocket.

From what I've heard, you don't feel happy or sad anymore, just bland. I like the sound of just being bland.

Less gray hair?

I'm getting them now too. Mostly in my beard, also at the temples. Soon I shall be Reed Richards, and then no one will be able to stop me.

I don't have a goatee, but the goatee area of my face is almost entirely gray. And I have some gray hair at my temples and over my ears. Eventually I'll just grow a mustache and be Sam Elliott.

I'd lose my conceit, then I'd be perfect!

Google "how to become depressed" and do it, and if you're lucky, you'll give yourself a mild enough dystyhmia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dysthymia), and if you're even more lucky, it will stay that way for a long time. You will just feel bland.

You can also apply for the war in Afghanistan and get a certain form of PTSD that will turn you into a zombie.

Oh, and drugs, yes, drugs ...

:eek:

Well, my problem is major depressive disorder, increasingly hard to control...
And so I experience most of my emotions as anywhere from mildly unpleasant to excruciating.
The PTSD doesn't help-what I've got left of it-and the pseudohallucinations can be very annoying.
The bad feelings far outweigh the good, and if I could get rid of most of the bad feelings, I would sacrifice most of the good ones.

Dysthymia is not an emotionless, unperturbed state in my case-I bite heads off regularly when merely mildly depressed.
Then start to hate myself for it pretty rapidly.

Drugs can make you bland only for short periods of time....then they no longer work.
