Anyone know the quote in [i]Snow Crash[/i] where Hiro talks about how all men dream of being badasses? I'll hit Phi with a random Dr. Seuss book for you...

    *sabotages Google, [URL=http://formen.ign.com/news/16990.html]this[/URL] page, and all copies of the book so Exile can never find it and hit her with a random Dr. Seuss book*

    Or in Phi/Worf's case, I won't unleash the fury of the Doc if they find it for me. Unfortunately, I need the full quote... something about training in a Chinese monastery, or avenging the murder of your family by Triad thugs, and then the sad fact that Raven's nuclear sidecar removes any chance anyone else ever had of attaining the title of biggest badass. :p

    Unfortunately, the quote doesn't seem to exist online in it's entirety, so I'll just have to hope that either I find my copy, or some First One is kind enough to dig up his copy and find it for me. :) But good try.

    Aha!

    "Until a man is twenty-five, he still thinks, every so often, that under the right circumstances he could be the baddest motherfucker in the world. If I moved to a martial-arts monastery in China and studied real hard for ten years. If my family was wiped out by Colombian drug dealers and I swore myself to revenge. If I got a fatal disease, had one year to live, and devoted it to wiping out street cimre. If I just dropped out and devoted my life to being bad.

    Hiro used to feel this way, too, but then he ran into Raven. In a way, this was liberating. He no longer has to worry about being the baddest motherfucker in the world. The position is taken."

    All I want, is a collection of masks and katanas, and the ability and knowledge to create my own combat armor. And the money to finally turn into cold blooded mayhem. I might be able by 25 if things keep going too well.. Happy happy and girlfriend doesnt really feel like "me".

    So yea. Badass mutha' fucker slicin' and dicin', here we come! :D

    edit: ofcourse I would use projectile weaponry as well.. but only to wound. I'm not a monster you know. I'd kill 'em with as brutal way as possible if I get the chance. Cut open their stomach and see if they can be concious like in the movies. Or cut off a arm and see the phases they go through. Or maybe just lop their heads off.. decicions.. decicions...
