Man... you hit the nail on the head with this one.

I'll apologize to the nail after I solve the problem. T-T

Don't worry. The nail was dead anyway :P

You killed it first for me? That's kinda sorta sweet I guess.

Ha. We talked about this today in our creative writing class.

Once you become obsessed with something/someone, you end up becoming them.

taintxlight February 21 2009, 05:08:51 UTC

How so? =O I don't understand that. T-T

ricekrispi February 21 2009, 15:41:04 UTC

Well, since you're obsessed with something/someone, you know and understand a lot of things about them. Therefore, you take on some of the qualities either consciously or subconsciously and slowly become them somehow.

It's like, when you're with someone, for example, some of the characteristics you like about them rub off on you. Like if you like their responsibility, you might have a drive to be more responsible.

I haven't seen a live example of this entirely, but that's what the term entails.

Hm... taintxlight February 21 2009, 17:28:32 UTC

See I'd agree. The only thing is, you can be obsessed with things and people you know nothing about. So in my opinion that statement renders the previous disposition moot.
