Ok, so I was sitting at the theater the other day, and came up with this psychological exercise for fun. It doesn't prove or show anything, it's just fun to do.
Say you somehow had just aquired a large apartment building, and never had to worry about paying for it or the people within. And now suppose that you could invite whoever you want to live in the building, and they would.
Who would live in your apartment building?
I came up with the following list:
-All my intellectual, funny, and arty friends (They'd get the middle appartments, so they wouldn't be too far from me at the top, but far enough so I wouldn't be woken by the noise)
-Ian Mconville, Matt Boyd, Scott Kurtz, Ian J. of RPG World, and all the other cool webcomic artists and writers I think ar cool. They'd be near the top, so their antics would be spread about the entire building. And yes, I bet even the most relaxed webcomic guy probably gets up to at least moderate antics.
-Michael Moore. I don't want the thread to go political, but he would definetly live there. Just to keep him safe from ninja-assassin-monkeys.
-My two cousins, because they're so damn cool. Those guys would make the place a lot more interesting.
-Although I considered it, not the KenzerCo guys, because those guys are reeeeeeally busy these days, and the last thing they'd want is to be in the crazy apartment.
-Gary Gygax, Steve Jackson, Shreigo Myamoto (you know, the nintendo guy), the Barenaked Ladies, and Mike Myers. All the celebrities would live near the ground floor, because that way they won't leave fans strewn around the building.
-Emily from school. Hey, shut up, it's my apartment.
-A sampling of my favorite fictional characters, including RPG World characters, FF 9 characters, some gaming characters of mine, a few choice Terry Pratchett characters (Oh, and Terry Pratchett) and a handful of other movie characters. They'd be scattered all over the apartment building.
-A few Jedi guys. To take care of bill-collectors, tax guys, and jerks. Plus they're just cool.
-Robots. Just a few, but enough for paintball warz and reinactments of the Clone Wars. Also, they would take care of the Ninja assassin monkeys (See above)
-Bill Gates. I don't care what you say about windows, it's just handy having someone around the building who knows a lot about computers. And is a billionaire.
-All of you guys, plus some other people I know over the internet. Yay! LAN Parties and such! And Kas and Gash would be neighbours, just for a laugh.
-The apartment itself would be a huge, immensly sturdy construction of stone and steel, with comfortable rooms, a pool, a heli-pad, a vast marble lobby, elevators, and a restaurent. It would be staffed with free-thinking, liberal types who would heartily approve of a Matrix-like paintball lobby shoot-out mid-day.
Ah, that was fun. Howsabout you guys?
