1. God (if he's available) - imagine what I could do in a day.
2. Lilith,Blood_Rose or Mesmerise - to see what it feels like to flame someone well.
3. my little brother - to see what it feels like to be a completely brain-dead ladies man.

Deviant - has no desire to be anyone connected to politics and the like

In no particular order of importance:

1. Thom Yorke of Radiohead
2. my grandpa, because he's taught me so much already
3. and I can't think of another person so I'll just say Tori Amos for the female experiment.

1) Eve, that way I wouldn't take the apple and someone wouldn't write a bset-selling book alluding that all womankind are temptresses.
2) Oscar Wilde. I would give anything to be as erudite and to have a drop of his literary talent. Also his dignity.
3) The Dalai Lama. He always looks so happy.

This is just a friendly little note. When I said that you could be anyone you wished, I did mean that you would actually *be* that person. You would have no control over their actions -- you would think their thoughts, experience their feelings, have their beliefs, etc. It would truly be a learning experience as while you could not change the person, you would retain the memories and feelings from that day.

I think I would choose:

~A poor child born to a family with religious traditions very different from mine -- a reminder that there are those far worse off than I could imagine that need help

~A man in a committed relationship -- because I'm curious what it's like on the other side

~ A talented performer (Tori would do) on a concert night -- just so I could feel what it was like to have some serious talent for once

heh yeah I know, it was all i could think of the time :!

Eros ;P

Oh, in that case...um.
1) I'll swap Eve for Ellen McArthur as I'd love to have half as much guts as she does. Also, I'd get to spend alot of time at sea with my thoughts.

I think I would have to go with:

1. Mes or BR or Lilith - see if I can pick up their flair for cutting remarks

2. Nachtzehrer or Tragic or Captain Nevarre - see if I can pick up their skills in witty reparte

3. My son - so I can find what would work on him to fix problems which I can see developing now (rather than in five or ten years when they become really bad)


Doth

#1 Umberto Eco (he's one of my favourite authors. It would just be awesome to know as much about the occult and everything else as he does)
#2 Stephen Hawking (so I would be the only person that could totally understand all of his theories...)
and #3...
A pig in heat (I STILL can't believe that a pig's orgasm lasts for over an HOUR!!) :p

*Bangs head on desk*

I can't believe you're still thinking about it. !!! Although, I wouldn't mind knowing who the f*ck TIMED it. Especially often enough to know that that length was normal.

Doth

I was just thinking... Aren't dolphins and humans the only ones able to feel pleasure from sex? So if you were to trade places with the pig, wouldn't you not be able to feel the pleasure because they don't see at as pleasure?

Crystal, who feels very confused

I suddenly have visions of someone else staring out of my eyes a-la "Being John Malkovich"


yeah. it's late.

g'night.



~blood rose~ Z)

id be dani filth! =:)

Oh boy.

Is someone spamming the GOTH.NET Forums on some CoF fan site or something?

Incidentally, the object was to name 3 people you'd want to be, and list why. Though in the case of Dani Filth I think I'm better off not knowing.


Lilith

I'd like to be

(1) Webster and rewrite the dictionary just because that'd be fun to do.
(2) One of those guys on "World's Strongest Man" competitions who've got no vowels in their name so I can go to China with an army of the "World's Strongest Men With No Vowels in Their Name" and get Tibet's independance back.
and finally
(3) George Dubyah so I could "accidentally" fall out of the White House onto Cheney who, in turn, would fall on Jeb Bush just because I don't care for him much, either, after passing a bill stating that in the death of both the president and vice president, a new election is to be held immidiately... unless it's already like that, I've got no idea.

1: Mes; To see what its like to have a boy in a cage

2: Winston Chruchill; That guy was the biggest champ... most quotable person I've ever heard of, plus, being a leader during the 2nd world war would be a learning curve, make no mistake.

3: Sir Robert the Bruce; A legend and a rebel... Medeval leader in a fight for freedom, what fun! plus, there is nothing like wearing a kilt and a crown *)
