i mean, let me do a few examples. the alter-ego youngwerther wants to fit into the head-in-the-clouds, arrogant intellectual thing. so many people like that... i mean, he could be a character from a book.

tozzy seems like a much more round character, but somehow he reminds me of all the other single, dry, easy-going and well-educated brits i've known in writing, movies, or real life. (u are single, right? not supposed to be a burn...)

wickedlady is the anti-goth, self-proclaimed hard-ass chick we're all also familiar with. together with billythekid, but to a greater extent, she berates anyone who childishly tries to stick up for their poorly reasoned beliefs.

gothickid is, of course, exactly the kind of person wickedlady loves to hate.

thefrog, the pseudo-intellectual with good wit and generally cool disposition. humorous and well loved.

psychogirl... well, i'll admit she's probably also very gothic, but less like gothickid and more like myself. from what i gathered she likes 'gothic' things because they appeal to her sense of aesthetics, but she doesn't consciously try to let it dictate her life. of course, in my dealings with others, that's the sort of image i want to get across, that is, of a kind of stand-offish guy. but deep down i'm sure we're all pretty much the same, past the image we're projecting. i suspect this is particularly true of psychogirl and me, since we seem to project similar things, but then again, it could just be coincidence.
