Who am "I"?

[Bhode_Sativa]

I am a work in progress, till I die.

[AFK]

Shit, sorry I started this everyone. 

[LMNO]

We all misfire, sometimes.

[LHX]

something will come of it

[LMNO]

That's what "they" say.

[AFK]

But, what's in it for "me"?

[vexaph0d]

fuck it, i'm going to make a serious repy.  these threads dealing with what we actually mean when we talk about things whose identities we assume are a given, might actually be useful.  anyway...

i am not a work in progress, i am progress in action, and 99 other pseudointellectual paraspiritual catchphrases.  i have become the All Seeing Eye, in that I see nothing.  i seem to be wired for curiosity.  i do not assimilate facts as something satisfying, i climb them like rungs in a ladder to somewhere 'else.'  i am easily frustrated.

the concept of individuality is somewhat ineffective and moot, since everything i could define myself as is only a measure of proximity to what somebody else is.  "i" am only a localized region of "us."  one camera in a high-tech motion-sensitive fugitive surveillance program, with a hardwired uplink to headquarters that is more often off than on.

[LMNO]

I am Jack's metaphysical conundrum.

[P3nT4gR4m]

I am so small I barlely exists but I thinks it's so big it pretty much eclipses everything else.
