Personality traits I need boxes for

edit

Philosophy

edit
  • The best revenge is a good life.
  • Everything you don't do in this life you will never do.
  • Criticism is like Barbed tape: The harder you fight it, the deeper it cuts.
  • It's never too late to have a good childhood.

Properties

edit
  • User is house-trained, low maintenance, and can imitate a traffic sign if necessary.
  • User knows so many bits and pieces of random obscure languages she wonders whether this has caused Hindustani to become a mutually intelligible language for her brain, enabling her to absorb a language without putting any particular effort into it, merely by overdosing on Bollywood movies. For this would be awesome.

Operating Manual

edit
  • User needs to be hit over the head with the obvious. Frequently.
  • User responds to logics, chocolate, and general cuteness. No violence necessary.

Warning!

edit

User habitually exercizes abnormal control over her facial expressions and emoticons, and as a result gets taken seriously way too often, both on- and offline. This backfires in funny ways. She claims this to be her sense of humor. Others might disagree.
