When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stephen King!(Oh, yes; to me, that never gets old.)
No, not an easy question at all, but a great idea for a thread, Letti.
I had to give it a lot of thought. It was easy for me to rule out Eddie. I have some dear friends with that type of personality, but I myself, well...
I guess the main thing is that I am more reserved. A true Virgo in many respects.
For those of you who don't know, I am one of those DT fans with an uncommon degree of sympathy for Roland. At first, he seemed like a good choice, but there are some definite big differences.
Not always, no, but sometimes, even if it takes you beyond the pale. I'm also Ox, in the Chinese Zodiac, so I understand the value of dedication, even if it is a hard row to ho. At the same time, I don't accept any narrow definition of sanity that's laid on me by thoughtless convention. I strongly believe that a man's path is a matter just for him and his God to work out.Originally Posted by Matt
I picked Roland but only because I can be single minded to the point of insanity.
And its not always a good thing, not at all.
Despite this, I'm not really very much like the Padre. I like him, and I agree with many of his religious conclusions, but I never had so much angst over them in my own life, or so dramatic a crisis of faith. The theme of fighting vampires has been an important one for me, but I haven't been nearly so overwhelmed at any point. What I most share with Callahan is his special wanderlust. If his vision of his ultimate reward was true, then he and I just might meet up some day.
What all of these so far have in common is the concept of addiction, and that, too, is something that I've thankfully never had to struggle with in a major way. A better archetype of my own issues in that area might be Calvin Tower.If you really want to add more options for people voting here, there's one character that you might think about.
Now, Susannah/Mia, Odetta/Detta, Susannah, that's someone whose problems and nature (in personality and in her role) I can really identify with.
But I am sure now that the answer which I must give is Jake, because I am a man out of time. I wasn't born until 1973, but I was a bright child, and very sensitive. I was so impressionable at that time that I still to this day feel, in the depths of my heart, like a boy living in the seventies. Also, what I've said about my insight to Roland may well stem more from my own father issues then any wannabe complex.
Oh, I can't let that pass without saying, Good Point.

It's good to have another Jake among us.
And thank you for the kind words.
Roland would have understood.
I voted for Eddie. I joke around a lot.
A true firewasp ninja would never wear such a ridiculous sweater.
There's logic in nonsense.
Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.
To people that don't know me very well or people that I'm not comfortable with or dislike...I'm Roland. To those that I'm close to, people that I can relax around, I'm Eddie. To my parents, I'm Jake.
Hmmm, what an interesting view and answer.
Roland would have understood.
I see three votes for Faddah. I assume one is Skolpadda's, and I know that another is mine; whose is the third?

I think it may be me ...it says I voted, and if I did that would be my vote.
Hello Jean, good to see you. ((hug))
The answer is within
That was me.
"It's his eyes, Roland thought. They were wide and terrible, the eyes of a dragon in human form" - Roland seeing the Crimson King for the first time.
"When the King comes and the Tower falls, sai, all such pretty things as yours will be broken. Then there will be darkness and nothing but the howl of Discordia and the cries of the can toi" - From Song of Susannah
Jean will get a heart-attack.That was me.
Roland would have understood.
Yeah, and if you believe that, I have some ocean-front property in Vermont for you to buy.

Eddie cos no one takes me seriously and think im a smart ass
I don't even need to take a quizz to check ^^ I'm pretty much like Roland
WOOF! But I settled for Eddie.So did I.Not totally serious but I always considered him a full member of the katet.
We can put Oy into the poll but I don't think that anyone of us could say they are most similar to Oy.
I mean...
Noone can be as good as a dog. But it's a hard topic (and a bit or very philosophical) and it can lead us to many many questions so to sum up we can put Oy into the poll if you wish.
It'll take a lot more than words and guns,
A whole lot more than riches and muscle.
The hands of the many must join as one.
And together we'll cross the river.
