if you could be the best in the world at something, what would you want it to be?
 

I'm already the best at everything I really am interested in doing (mainly sex, playing surf music, and discovering weird movies). I am not quite the best musician or filmmaker yet but I know I will be as long as I work at it. So, I'm not concerned, and I'm not being egotistical here -- everyone should aspire to be the best at something, and the few goals I've set for myself have been achieved, and hopefully, the new goals I am setting for myself will be achieved as well... I'm constantly setting new goals because I hope to achieve those... though, in all reality, maybe I don't want to be the ABSOLUTE BEST at things. First of all, life is too short to be the ABSOLUTE BEST, because someone's always going to be better than you, somewhere. So, when I say "Best", I mean in a relative sense.. the best I could possibly ever WANT TO be. Because, I think while you can get better, even at your supposed "best", eventually you will probably reach a point where you can barely get better. For example, if you can weight lift 200 lbs.. sure, keep pushing, maybe you can weight lift 205 lbs soon but is it really worth it? I think I've excelled at a FEW things to the best of my ability, and I'm not going to be able to do MUCH better than that. Also, besides, I don't think it's too fun to be the ABSOLUTE BEST -- competition breeds creativity. Look at the Madden video games. There used to be 100 different NFL games on the market. Now EA owns the exclusive license (or they did. I don't pay attention to football video games usually). So, Madden doesn't have to innovative anymore; they can keep putting out the same bullshit. If I was the number one filmmaker/musician/etc in the world, I'd probably grow stagnant and have too much pressure to constantly be the best, the best, the best.. instead of focusing on the innovations that got me to that point. You can only innovate so long, too. So, define best... it's hard to define best. Is best an opinion? If I can "Shred" at the guitar better than anyone else -- is that people's OPINION that what I play is awesome.. or am I TECHNICALLY hitting 430983485 "Correct" notes faster than anyone else? So, it's hard to really be the best or to define what "best" even means.

Having said that, one thing I recently grew interested in, and I'd really like to just suddenly be AMAZING at... is chess.

everything

The best looking.

Sex. Oh wait already am.

Maybe any instrument I play like Howard Moon.

Keeping it to non-super-heroic qualities, I'd say I'd like to be the best music producer.
I'd probably get to work with lots of interesting artists and stuff, and make good money with the superstars.
I'd produce the new Nelly Furtado album.
Then I'd persuade Albini to let me produce the new Shellac.
Which would be their best, hands down.
Plus I appreciate the work of many producers, so I'd be proud of myself when putting out something that sounds good. Which, being the best music producer ever, would mean every time I work.

The best at answering this question.

my answer is "no". once yr "the best" at anything, there's only room for slippin'.

plus, once I became "the best", I would most likely just grow bored of whatever it was that I'm "the best" at.

the best the best the best....etc

I'd like to be the best friend anyone in the world could have







(what a fucking hippy)

building jet packs

I would be the best fly on the wall in all your bedrooms.

Ideally, I'd like to be George Best. Rich, drunk, top quality fanny? Yes please!

bein the best would be kind of boring. trying to get yourself better than others all the time is more motivating.

drug distribution

I'd like to be the best in the world at cultivating deep and consoling patience.

Somethin' I'm not good at or somethin' I don't know anything about....like I would like to be the best cook.

I'd want it to be Pete Best



looks great, eh ?

being funky fresh

The best at anything?

I'd be the best at coming first in the lottery.

I'd like to be the best at spilling alcohol on people's sofas.

i'd like to be best in being a good partner/boyfriend.

which, in fact, I'm really far from being.

I'd like to be the best at discovering music,art,books,places,food,drinks,etc...that appeal to me.

Damn...
Looks like I've got some competition.

I'd simply like to be in a really great band who enough people enjoy the music of so I could make a career out of it. A band in which most people universally love (Or like a lot). Have a record or two be considered a "genius effort" from indie rock from the time period.

Since that was a mess and made little sense, I wouldn't want to be the best band ever because I don't really think "best" exists (Literally being better than EVERYTHING that qualifies in the category? Seriously?), but I would like to be "one" of the best indie rock bands who people say sound just like Pavement but nobody ever realizes all of the songs are just ripoffs of better songs.

the best at squeezing titties

I am the best partner/boyfriend. I've been told this by every girl I've dated, and I even got an email from an ex saying that I'm too uh... good of a boyfriend and that alienates girls that I date because girls don't want to date someone who they feel impossibly indebted to. In other words, most girls want a guy with flaws so they feel better about their own, and so they don't feel the pressure to compete... But yeah, I've never cheated, I'm always on time, I always get my women whatever they want, I will see them at 2 PM or 2 AM, in rain or snow, I will walk miles upon miles, I will risk life and death, I will ... you know. Just, everything. Even though my girlfriend and I are apparently "breaking up" soon (which, in all honesty, I think is just a temporary thing -- I'm not being delusional, I just know that when we're together, things are great... she's not faking or hiding her feelings... I think she just needs a break from me.. and maybe just needs to see what else is out there... then, she'll know), I have given her close to $500 recently, just to help her out. She didn't ask for it! She didn't expect it! She's not using me... I had to force her to take it. But, yeah, she is apparently moving far away, and there's going to be a period where she isn't working and I wanted to show her that I support her, even though I don't agree with what she's doing to me, and I definitely don't agree with this situation in general. I've done more than that, but I don't want to... yeah. Maybe I'll talk more about this after we officially "split up".

The point of this paragraph was just to say: You can be the best boyfriend ever, but a lot of girls don't want that.

I'd do anything to make a girl cum.

u sound like a narcissist

uhh...

Nah, just honest. Also, I'm probably one of the best typists currently alive. I type 149 words per minute without error. How is stating a fact narcassistic, especially when it's relevant to the topic at hand? We all are good at something. Might as well be honest at what you're good at. I'm not BRAGGING here. I'm not going "Look at me, I'm a great boyfriend, fuck you all!" In fact, if anything, I'm being self-deprecciating: It's widely acknowledged that I'm a great boyfriend but still, girls have cheated on me, lied to me, and broken up with me. And I've never even yelled at them. I'm ... too good. Which is probably why I want to blow my brains out. A "narcassist" probably doesn't hate himself and wishes he were dead every day.

Also, dont worry, I'm honest about my faults too.

skating

eating yogurt
making edible cereal out of rocks

for future reference, this is why I like australians. they fucking EAT ROCKS, man.

if she isn't happy there, no amount of you 'being a good boyfriend' is going to make it any different. no point beating yourself up over that. really.

Yeah, it has nothing to do with me.. well, for the most part. It's just that she's not happy in life, in general, and needs to change. I'm not beating myself up, I'm still tore up over the situation though I have some hope.

it wasn't meant to be a negative comment, if it sounded a bit like that.

I just know I've been in situations where I've felt like I was doing everything I could do to make something better, and beating myself up over it.. before realising.. wait, I am doing everything I can do.. so.. not it's not something Im doing wrong, so there is no point letting it drown you.
