What's your tragic flaw? Aristotle said an earnest tragedy is driven by a hero's own hamartia, or misdeed. We generally think of this now (perhaps in error) as an innate character flaw. Question: If some bard were writing an epic tale about you that would be read 2000 years from now, what would your hamartia (or hamartiai) be? Mine: Procastination, distraction, lack of stamina... and maybe starting bad threads on prince/org. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Moderator | you sound like Hamlet
and I probably do as well, to an extent. But My tragic flaw is the fact that I can never ever be happy with what I have, or the moment I'm in. I'm always looking for the next big thing. In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

Procrastination - I always wait until the last minute to do everything, especially when it has to do with school.
I can be naive, but I'm definitely learning to rid myself of my naiveness. I have been fooled many times, but I won't be fooled by some anymore [Edited 7/18/07 8:48am] | |

Singing Al B Sure songs when I get nervous.

Im deep quote- song lyric about my ex cause that bitch stole my mp3 player! - line from movie I liked - Prince lyric - not very clever sig mocking other sigs | |

I am always running late. Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday.

Ex-Moderator | I was hoping for a cute little quiz that would tell me what mine is.
That said, I have too many flaws to try to choose just one. Procrastination, laziness, insecurity, lack of confidence, lack of ambition... All in all I'm still happy, though. |

Self-discipline or rather lack thereof. A 50% increase of it would have worked wonders in my life I believe. I could say procrastination, but there have been many times when it has worked very much to my favor | |

That's actually a legitimate problem. It makes you come off as potentially cruisy. If some guy stood at the urinal next to me, but I didn't actually hear anything, I'd think he was up to no good. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I'm so sorry. i'm really just kidding. while i do have an aversion to urinals, i've never had a problem with letting 'er rip and hosing down the house. and when i've had a few to drink, i don't give a damn about urinals either. i think i just like the phrase "shy bladder". it sounds like something a grade school teacher circa 1957 would say. | |

I wear my heart on my sleeve.
I'm VERY gullible and a FOOL for love. So foolish. I almost went to a crackhouse with my ex to get my best friend's purse while he smoked I would've went in that crackhouse with LURVE just for him. http://prince.org/msg/100/263154?&pg=2

"Love" and "crackhouse" don't belong in the same sentence. He must've really worked that thang on you! Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου
