|  "Your Role Model"
, posted Tue 18 Jun 19:37
i was watching tv earlier and it made me think .. we all have someone that we've looked up to at one point or another
so who's your role model?
seeing as how this is the mmcafe bbs, we all play video games or watch anime or read comics more than most folks, so your role model doesn't have to be a particular person (although it still can be), but maybe a character from somewhere
i'll go first to get the ball rolling. i'm one of those guys that grew up with Capcom, but when i first discovered SNK (because of King of Fighters '99 and Capcom vs SNK), i fell in love with their characters almost immediately. there was just something about them. anyways, i played a bit of CvS1 at a friend's house and got to the end to face Geese Howard -- someone i've never even seen before (well, i saw him once a few years ago in Fatal Fury Special. i thought he looked cool, but that was about it) -- and my friends told me i wasn't going to win. sure enough, his counters (a concept i never even knew existed) and his infamous Raging Storm took me out quickly. when i got home, i did research on Geese and even his story is something incredible. a weak businessman who became fascinated with the martial arts fights (and kills) his way to the top. everything about Geese amazes me, his fighting style, his story, his look, everything. he's the inspiration of why i spend hours each day trying to get into shape and why i've strived to find the best martial arts school (that fits me) in town

Heh,I hardly consider Geese weak. This guy's a powerhouse!
Anyway,I look up too all kinds of people. Too many too list,and I'm lazy.

Hmmmm I admire Geese and his character, but he is sinister and I certainly wouldn't consider him as a role model. Role models should be people whom you look up upon and follow. So I suppose you would start killing people weaker than you?
The only antidote to my poison is death...Hey! No fair! You have a resurrection move??

hehe in his younger days, he was a weakling (back in the Art of Fighting storyline, before all that training)

hm, you're right
i guess i should start to implement killing in my plans ^_^
doh, i thought i mentioned that. i think i may have deleted that part by accident. anyways, even though he is an evil bastard, i still admire him. he really doesn't make a good role model. but i'm old enough to understand what's good (all the discipline and training he went through) and what's bad (he really did it all for power). we don't have to follow our role models completely. they're just there to give us inspiration and something to aim for. yes, i (seriously) aim for a huge corporation one day, as well as becoming adept in as many different martial arts as i can handle. i just hope i don't fall off the top floor of my office building in a company-sponsored tournament

Gouki and Rugal. I look up to their strengthes and all aspects of their character the most. "THEY ROCK!!!"
The human role model is Steven Hawkens. You know the guy in the wheel chair who can't talk but the computer on the chair helps him to talk. He's a great Astronomer. I would like to be an Astronomer, an Animation Designer or on the creative staff for Capcom or another famous gaming industry.

I first began to worship Shermie, so I changed sex and became friend with Jean Paul Gaultier to become like my idol. But when I tried to gain the orochi thunder power, it became much harder. I used to spend the whole night with metallic items on me in the storm so that thunder would wall on me. But when it did happenned, I was burnt at the 3rd degree, and it took me years to cure the wounds.
But meanwhile, I discovered Iggy, so while I was in hospital and since I was completely burned, I asked not only to change sex again, but to change of species too. Look at the real picture of me as my new avatar, am I not cute? The only problem is that it's really hard to use the computer with thoses hands.
