Don't know if I'm making an equation. I'm considering whether mythology can be a way to understand real life people. I do know that there are attempts to classify people according to mythological types. You are probably right that it has no more validity than a lot of those incredibly stupid personality classification tests many HR departments use.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Twelve baby pandas.
Whoa. Super cute!
I'm glad I was forewarned by reading about it here first, because that friend request would have dropped my jaw if I'd run across it later today while performing Facebook-y job tasks.
I almost fell over though when I saw that Raq and Victor had friended him though.
Yup. t edit I reported him as a sockpuppet, too.

Eh. People aren't mythological. Perhaps it could be useful in a large anthropological sense, but really -- people are more (and less) complex than mythological archetypes.
Sometimes an asshole is just an asshole.
no friend request. unfazed.
I am tired from data entry last night.
My DH noticed the color draining from my face when I got the FB notification on my phone. He asked what was wrong and I said "Remember Gus the Weremonkey?"
I thought about it the whole drive to work (45 minutes), trying to decide if I was going to friend him or block him or flame him.
Ultimately, curiosity got the better of me. I want to know WHY he is doing this. I assume he doesn't think of other people as human, so I doubt he was missing us...but he has to have a reason.
And this way, no one else has to friend him.
For my part, thanks for throwing yourself on that grenade, Raq.

I assumed he was drunk last night and sent out all the friend requests.
Also, sociopathy (which only looks good on Cumberbatch as Sherlock [also, when does S2 premiere, god damn it???]).
