Humans are fascinating.

Not only that but it gives me something to do with my spare time..

Mmmh. I'm glad that I can relate to you about this. It is truly fascinating. I also have an extremely abstract sense of humour. Lets not go there. But my point is, if I've percieved someones behaviour and nature for long enough then I usually find aspects of it tantalizingly funny. I'm not saying that it's a good thing. But that's just me. I am also fascinated by personality flaws if I find them.

Lets take Macbeth in Shakespeare's play "Macbeth". The character Macbeth has an inherant personality flaw, that is, his "vaulting ambition". This eventually leads to his death if you've read the play. He is a perfectly normal and genuine character in all other lights. Sorry to get shakespearian on you. But I couldn't think of anything else.

Fair enough.
