Prop is closed

sorry for the delay in closing, folks! I blame [livejournal.com profile] lilyfarfalla's pet mouse lemur, pictured here:

the dangerous gray mouse lemur of madagascar

see? how can you blame such an innocent? which also turns out to be an evil,
cannibalistic predator that will nibble on your toes in your sleep! eep!

RUN RODNEY RUN.

um. anyway.

I think it's a case of not feeling like they're 'special' in any conventional way (singing, sports, etc.) and trying to convince themselves that they have a talent, even if it's for something so out of the ordinary as this. And they don't ever seem to get that even if you have all the training, it can still be deadly. Steve Irwin, anyone?

I don't think the ME is allowed to do that, but you know that thought came up.

Those who they have placed the spotlight on have by and large been
individuals who are missing something deep in their souls.
Perhaps their lack of self worth and a desire to be in control of something ends has brought about their demise.
Sad when one contemplates it.

"I don't think the ME is allowed to do that, but you know that thought came up."

It was inappropriate in proposing that, but so often I see something and think 'acute stupidity is what actually killed him/her'
In this case taking on wild animals and thinking 'I can do what others cannot or have not done.'
There are just so many cases which prove that theory is flawed.
