Somewhere in the past, a man took a shine to a woman. She fancied him. Fireworks.
Nine months later, humanity got its first friend and greatest enemy: me.
I'm only human. Watch me tear through this cardboard box like it's only paper. Watch me stop this car by force of brakes alone. Watch me build a city out of Lego and step on it in the night. I am dangerous. I am to be feared. I am death.
I'm only human.

Oh, dear. This feels like an echo of a conversation we had not too long ago.
ReplyDeleteIf it is, I'm sorry.
Neither you nor this character is humanity's greatest enemy. This guy sounds a bit like a danger to himself, maybe, but nothing serious.
You're a good man, you know.
Thanks, I guess. Not sure I agree.
ReplyDeleteThe post is more about self-importance.
Haha of course not.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I find that my own self-importance is best combated with the truth that I am both better and worse than I think I am.
