    Did that *hero* just save a childs life? or Did he just trip over his own ego while distracted by his own image in a mirror? Did that *hero* slam his foot on the accelerator flying through a worksite putting the lives of workers at risk? or Did he run into a burning building saving an elderly man, woman or couple? How do you define hero dude? If you try to be a hero it will come off as contrived. If you are just an all around good bloke who is kind and generous and genuine in all that he does...then chances are...some lovely chickie babe will think you are her hero...

    Of course not....why would I or any other woman want to be with any of these heroes? The list is obviously not complete: Atticus Finch - To Kill A Mockingbird (1962)Han Solo - Star Wars (1977)Will Hunting - Good Will Hunting (1997) (..personally I think Ben Affleck's name was just added to the script as a favour to a friend-perhaps we can rename it Good Matt Damon) Eric Draven - The Crow (1994) Indiana Jones - Raiders Of The Lost Ark (1981) Mr Grey - Secretary (2002) Peter Blood - Captain Blood (1935)Bender - Futurama (1999--) Robin Hood - The Adventures Of Robin Hood (1938) Brian - Family Guy (1999--) Dean Winchester - Supernatural (2005---) Dracula - Dracula (1992) Harris K Telemacher - LA Story (1991) Alvin C. York - Sergeant York (1941); O'Niel - Outland (1981) Butch - Pulp Fiction (1994); Xavier Red - The Doom Generation (1995); George Emerson - A Room with a View (1985); Roger the Alien - American Dad! (2005--) Detective Harry Callahan - Dirty Harry (1971); Max California - 8mm (1999) Superman/Clark Kent - Superman (1978); Tyler Durden - Fight Club (1999); John Bender - The Breakfast Club (1985); Detectve Robert Goren - Law & Order Criminal Intent (2001) Lestat - Queen of the Damned (2002); Frank Serpico - Serpico (1973); Peter Emery - Preaching to the Perverted (1997); Westley - The Princess Bride (1987); Max Rockatansky - Mad Max (1979) ; Hawkeye - The Last Of The Mohicans (1992) "You be strong, you survive... You stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far, I will find you." Obviously no woman would ever want to hear a man say something like that to her...how could she possibly find that as attractive as: "John's new girlfriend is hot isn't she?" or "Why do I have to go to your family's place-it's Sunday!?" Or after several weeks of things going swimmingly, with them charging into your life like the Legion into a village, after they set up camp, have inspected all locations, tell you they only want you, their male weirdness has passed, they are devoted to you and they love you... within 48 hours they remember they are "just out of a relationship". Or perhaps, it's just the ex has decided that she made a mistake when she see's him again and now he's conflicted-but he'll never tell you-it's the male code (the Codex Caritas ie to drive women insane to require time in Caritas at Darlinghurst). He doesn't need to be Indiana Jones-but I don't think it should be as hard as when you're pitching to the studio for a large budget for your unknown screenplay about "the magical musical world of headlice"- if your expectations are that any man you would be interested in aged over 30 had previously been in a relationship-so you didn't have a "40 Year Old Virgin" that you had to train and that he shouldn't be seeking to meet anyone if he's still jonesing over the ex. I feel now no matter how little experience with children you may have-you should recognise immediately he's no hero-but for reasons unknown he's behaving like a little baby or a petulant selfish child if he tries to pull this "I'm just out of a relationship line" on you. He really deserves to be spanked-although if it's someone I like he'd more likely enjoy it. I can only base my opinion on my personal experience that, if you are in any way similar to or desire to grow up to be as strong and brave as any of the following heroic female characters in real life-you are destined to have ready and steady company always for sex yet no true companion as apparently the hipster dufuses I like are all "just out of a relationship". I'm now reminded why I moved out of Bondi-natural habitat of lamatoid hipster dufus. What they are saying is actually worse than saying-"I'm not looking for a relationship"-because what they are actually saying is "I would actually have a relationship-but not with you"-despite telling you "I love you" and "I love how strange you are" and "I'm so glad I found you". I know what I'm talking about- HD's in my linguistic subjects. So while many women are in relationships waiting years for some lamatoid to finally tell them "I love you" - I get told they love me, they want me, and yet...it's almost like the universe has a sense of humour when it comes to me, there's always some woman from the past showing up and they become mute. You can't ever rest easy because if you close your eyes to soon to relax Freddy Krueger's little sister is showing up to cause you some pain. So you either bail at the one month mark or you have a couple of years with no sleep...This is why the Nymph has become positively retrosexual-this is why the Drm is over..etamine is over there dancing in the corner-always dancing looking for lollies. The list of heroic women: Scout - To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) Hildy Johnson - His Girl Friday (1940) Princess Leia - Star Wars (1977) Selene - Underworld (2003) Silvia -Jamón, Jamón (1992) Erin - Erin Brockovich (2000) Marion - Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) Amélie - Amélie (2001) Lucia -The Ghost and Mrs Muir (1947) Serafina - The Rose Tattoo (1955) Katherine - The Prophecy (1995) Uhura - Star Trek (well she loves a Vulcan that's quite brave) (2009) Sookie - True Blood (1998) Marge - The Simpsons Personally, I don't care who you are, your pedigree, what you look like, how popular you are, how many friends you have, who your friends are, how successful you believe you are or may be, who you allege were your former lovers-as far as I'm concerned you would be an absolute idiot no matter how smart and talented some people say you are if you did anything to f*** it up or f*** up a man that possessed all the heroic qualities in the characters below in any way and not realise how fortunate you are to have him as the lapdog in your life. You are an idiot-albeit a very fortunate idiot. Then again he may be carrying such a big mirror for you to see yourself that you probably don't even notice him anymore. I don't like lapdogs. I like something wild that will come to you of it's own free will, that will stay and sit and want to listen because it's intelligent and wants to interact-not because it has to perform silly tricks for the crowds in the show rings around town. Doesn't even need to be everyday-just be good to have a sign of life-whether it be a phone call or an email-I hate texting-they're called phones for a reason-let's get phonic. The one that is all these things-it actually kills me now to know he's out there-sometimes it's better not to have known someone like this and just live in meagre mediocrity forever-a Roman's death is to fall on one's sword-at present I only feel the pain of the blade but not the release: Atticus-the best shot in town, he deals swiftly with rabid dogs, he doesn't need to use violence or crow the loudest to get everyone's respect, the same one that would stand up or even sit alone all night to ensure the bloodthirsty murderous ignorant crowd of yokels were unable to carry out insane mob justice-defending in one act both the ideals of justice and the wrongly accused vulnerable defendant (well your learned Justinian academic father figure is always going to have an impact upon the guy you want to be with isn't he?); Walter-articulate, intelligent, creative, confident, well dressed-he'll give you the best conversation of your life, his career is to get you to want to read what he or is team is writing about-yet at the same time quite prepared to use any underhanded method to get you back from your new man, as he realises he was quite stupid to ever make you want to run away from him in the first place-production for use (Howard Hawks-genius) Han-will defend and support a worthy cause even if he can't see its merits at first, doesn't want to get involved in other's struggles not because he doesn't care but because he's got a few of his own issues to deal with first (if only he'd just talk to you about it you wouldn't think he was such a selfish jerk), considers himself a "good" man, yet has some outstanding debts from decisions made in haste which causes him to be unavailable, is regularly found in establishments at the edge of the star filled galaxy with strange creatures waiting for someone to come and use him for a ride somewhere, owns goggles that he uses for intense bonding work a bit later on, sincerely believes he is well known throughout the galaxy for something that he once did better than anyone else and considers it quite impressive, has a best friend that he once saved, although he doesn't say much, you can't understand if you are still an outsider-as they have their own gutteral (purposely mispelled) private language yet you can be sure whatever he says it's an accurate observation of the situation and to be honest Han'd be totally lost without him; Michael-a healer with rare blood line, can't work out how he's suddenly come to be in this dangerous adventure with this strange black haired woman that drives too fast is prone to wearing pvc and trying to get him to go in directions he's never been, much too fast from the moment they met. He runs from her terrified, back to his previous life, but his friends see him differently now as he has changed they think he's gone mad, he has nowhere to go, he always thought he was special, he realises now she is the only one to help him find the answers as to why and become all that he could be-he turns up at her home the adventure begins; Raul-twisted and perverted-can be be mildly opportunistic at first-loves to model underwear, yet loses himself only to love, screws with the mind of an evil mother-in-law, (what's not to love here?); George-is a grown up man, he can tolerate potty mouth and pouty mouth, makes life easier for those around him as he is supremely chillaxed and can handle any situation, he's naturally kind and protective towards children and animals, can actually use tools to fix things, a bit of a loner, patient and genuine, independent, travels at times for work, supports his woman in her career, even though some of his friends may try to change his mind about his choice he doesn't give her a hard time about her "situation" he loves her and accepts all that comes with her; Nino-you're shy to approach him at first, as you know eccentric dreamers are strangely romantic and dangerously fertile and obviously virile; Henry/Indiana-educated, well read, known and respected in his field, can think on his feet, has travelled to all kinds of exotic places, unfortunately Nazis can be problematic for him-yet it appears he wriggles out unscathed of any deadly or threatening unplanned situation they may cause for him, he definitely likes whips in all his adventures; Daniel-much older than the long gone husband, supernatural, salty, lives near the sea, knows all about the ocean and what lies beneath, would definitely look better with a shave, has many tales of his travels to tell though needs an intelligent competent woman to help him finally get it all published and finally receive the success he deserves (and not so subtlely or quietly desires), he has an annoying if not infuriating ability to disappear into thin air unheard from for days, even if you call him, especially when he wants to avoid discussing something so close to his heart or when he knows he is wrong; Alvaro-will make you forget all the bad times you've lived through and you become again who you were before them if not a better version of you than you ever were, gets crazy romantic ideas about getting a tattoo to impress you, likes wine and will take you wherever you need to go to get the right answer, is prone to get carried away in his wild gestures to show and tell you how much he loves you-life with this guy always ends in laughter; Thomas-meets you when he's looking for someone else-comes to you far from his home-he takes in your desolate surroundings and unusual living circumstances, he's smart and he's seen things that few have, he's surrounded by books some he's written, the angels know him although when you meet him he no longer has faith in organised religion yet can be counted on to defend you and anyone in your care from the forces of darkness attempting to steal souls to the end, he'll take on Gabriel and even Lucifer if he has to-you can draw the blinds and close the curtains on this one but he's got what you're looking for "inner light"; Spock-science officer-definitely not of this world-now an endangered species-logical-highly intelligent-dedicated to his work-calmer than anyone you've known-will step aside if he thinks he's emotionally compromised, really likes your linguistic abilities-tells you you're an expert, but very secretive about your relationship-sorry research partnership, is the only one board this vehicle in space that will ever know your first name-although he only ever addresses you by your title; Eric Northman-much older than the rest, has long hair, doesn't appear as his real age, his kind of blood can drive you crazy with desire for him, recognises you're very different and valuable, knows you're smart doesn't give you a hard time about your job-he actually gives you work he knows you can do for him from time to time, has assured you he will end anyone that gives you problems, is the local go to guy of his kind, he keeps his true resting place a secret, has a long, complicated and hidden past. He just can't seem to make up his mind about what to do with you, tricks you into first tasting him, then he ends up addicted to how you taste and holds back because he fears this will make him somehow weak. He's definitely supernatural, since you've been together the first time he's given you something that makes you heal faster, you are stronger and have become far deadlier than you ever thought you were before. That witch that suddenly turned up wanting him and or half of everything he's worked on building can cause a few problems for a while-you have to have faith that it will be sorted out. Well the universe has to compensate a good fairy in a bad world for that Mama's boy Bill that first turned up-in your life-no matter what you did-he ended up doing whatever his maker told him-that got you beaten up over and over and in danger from all kinds of weirdos and beasties-because you loved him; Homer J Simpson-he is prepared to be all yours, devoted and domestic, he would do anything for you, after all he did save you from ever having to contemplate a life with someone like Artie Ziff ever again, you just need to be prepared for his occasional wild and crazy idiotic ideas, let him go to Moe's with his buddies, give him plenty of red meat to eat and he will always snuggle at your invitation. Not looking for much am I? Though I've been told if you don't know exactly what you want it will never show up.... I know what I want and it's now showed up too soon and I'm terrified that it may disappear forever or that it may come closer...I'm also terrified of the kind of lap dance I'm going to have to give Santa to ensure I get it for Christmas-as I've been a good girl but why not try to lock it in? As a nerd you are passionate about things(or so someone once said) this helps you remember important details about heroes or villains that can at times save you from danger. Presently, I'm praying with intent to the god who comes and all the others that this person is not the second Sith as you know how they are-they start out all sexy, Jedi and devoted to you, then you discover what they're really like, you know all single-minded in the pursuit of power, their true disdain for sentient life, those self serving warrior mages are not very good for the soul in the long-run no matter how good they look in a towel, robe, between your sheets or kneeling in front of you for pleasure and it matters not how many times they have told you they live only to serve you-if the truth is they only serve themselves-there will be tears and bloodshed. Heroes-there's the ever popular and always imitated Byronic hero "mad, bad and dangerous to know"...personally of all his very cool traits I dig the wild hair, I'm sure he is where swagger started-they were imitating his limp. My Gran warns me that no good can ever come of an association with a man with long hair-yet what Gran doesn't know about what I like-is a lot or she wouldn't have made it to her old age. Then again, maybe she's right-she's got all that life experience after all? One of my great heroes-Ovid despite all his beautiful words was banished to Tomis (Romania) by the Emperor's swift decisive action-for a crime Ovid himself described as "worse than murder"-it was never actually recorded what exactly it was that he did yet most scholars have agreed upon it was likely to have been a great betrayal of personal trust, if not his failure to do the "right thing" by someone that had considered him a close and special friend. After 10 years in exile he died-though some scholars say he never left Rome, it was all made up. Yet the pain of being banished or abjured from all that which you love and find stimulating-even if you remain in the same city I imagine can still be quite fatal to the soul. I saw evidence of that yesterday when I saw someone that had once been the most beautiful man in the world to me-yet he had gone from the lithe lustful lascivousness inducing Lestat that I always believed would never be replaced for the rest of my days, to an anger filled red-eyed (you can guess why) bloated leech-he had become all the things I had feared he would when I suggested he should re-think his "lifestyle". I cried when I saw him-for his pyrrhic victory over me-in living his life-his way, he had destroyed himself. The pain seemed to flow out of him to the air around him and into me-I'm not saying that I could have saved him-but I wished he would have tried to save himself from-what he has become. The evidence speaks for itself-when a man was once your hero, that you would have done anything for because you loved, respected and admired him, when they turn on you, whatever the reason (drugs, madness, skanks) there is no choice but to banish them from your life to survive-unfortunately 10 years in Tomis can really change a man-from bad to worse or kill him. The inscription on a statue in Ovid's honour in reads: Here I lie, who played with tender loves, Naso the poet, killed by my own talent. O passerby, if you've ever been in love, let it not be too much for you to say: May the bones of Naso lie gently. Sometimes a typed Englist text message can be as troublesome for a modern writer as careless handwritten words in Latin that appeared before the wrong eyes. Any man should have the courage of a hero to explain to a woman what has occurred, as to run and hide-is to be a coward. Otherwise a trial filled with evidence is held in your absence, a verdict is reached without your chance to explain and guards are sent to lock the gates-to shut you out forever. I would offer-don't drink and text or don't take too much time in deciding whether to jump in to hold on for the best ride of your life. Especially when a Maserati that's waiting has a numberplate that reads YNEN69-there are a lot of other tasty people hitchhiking, glad for your seat-dawn is fast approaching on the 3rd night of the full moon. What are you going to do? Pretend you didn't say or do all the things you did? Make out I'm strange because I've followed your lead? Refuse to talk to me about it? Write about it in abstract concepts, wait to read someone else's account about it or actually going to have the courage of a hero to live it? I kicked out the chair you sat down. The door is open-now get the f*** in the car! *smirk* (you did say you liked it when I got bossy) NymphetamineDrm
