What is your goal in life?

[philippe]

my goal in life is to have one so both dissappears and the cyclus goes on..

To become filthy rich and have a trophy wife. groucho

See many people say how great it is to rule the world, but it's pointless if you don't have any higher goal! See, I plan to take over the world to help my goal of mocking people. That wy I can offend people with impunity. I'd be able to make anyone feel like absolute dog crap and thiers nothing they can do about it.

Aha, so that's where we differ. My opinion is that a successful taking over the world isn't really an end in itself. The problem lies in that once you have taken over the world, you will sort of have to take care of the world. That of course is in no way fun, thus contradicting with my primary objective.

On a side note, if you are going to do it anyway, have a backup plan. Don't end up like the Brain (from "Pinky and the Brain").

To own a fully customised Gibson Explorer. Not much of a goal, but it's what I want. Lack of cash is hampering me at the moment though.

 

[TrailblazingScot]

To test out the 'not if you were the last man alive in the World' scenario

"What is your goal in life?"

This thread comes a day too late. I've been asked this question in a job interview yesterday and I had no idea what to answer. But since giving no answer would have made a bad impression, I said "to see the world and get to know different cultures" (thinking of "Full Metal Jacket"), but I'm not sure whether this was a good answer in a job interview.

Tell me, is it a good answer, or what should I have said?

Don't really have a goal.

 

[WillJ]

My goal in life is to not get stabbed.

I don't care about making millions of dollars or helping lots of people. As long as I don't get stabbed, I consider myself a winner.

 

[Archer 007]

To have a family and children.

That is my goal also.

 

[America444]

[WS78]

My life's goal is to not die.

Not only that, it's doomed to fail. (or do you mean unnatural death?)

1. Bring on Free Software. Intent: Upset Microsoft.
2. Bring on intelligent debate and the searchlight of science. Intent: Upset creationists and the Church of Sceintology.

 

[devilzExcremNt]

Just to be happy. Doesn't have to mean having fun or getting loved or whatever... it doesn't mean using drugs, though, either. I mean I want to actually be happy with myself and what I'm doing in life-- basically, I want to learn to think positively.

What a load of crap, though .

I have many goals in life, but I'm too lazy and sick ("treated" anxiety disorder).
I've just asked a friend what does he think my goals in life are (from knowing me for years).
He said that my goal is for other people not to bother me and that they won't expect too much from me.

Actually, until 2 years ago, I was ALWAYS under some pressure, so I just wanna relax.

I see my goals in life (in order of importance):

(0.) Cure the anxiety disorder -
Perhaps it can't be done, but I'm still trying.
I live at 80-90% capacity, never 100% like before, even with SSRIs (40mg of seroxat/paroxetine per day).

1. Live quietly -
Need money! somewhere between 50K$ to 150K$. Then I won't bother a soul, and be a happy productive citizen (productive does NOT mean work).

2. Learn -
Whatever my brain asks I give it.
I'm still mostly gaming, but I believe it is developing the hardware of my brain before I storm some topic like... phisics, astronomy, algorithms (or games algorithms), chemistry, medicne, genetics, or other stuff that's too much interesting to be left ignored.
I have a B.Sc (first degree) in computger science(1/3) and math(2/3), but I won't go further into math unless I need to.
Also, University is a nono.

3. meet more women -
I had one real girlfriend at 20, I'm now 27.
Lost many years, got no tact, too outfront and cenciere along with cinicism and humor some can't understand.
I don't think I'll marry, since I don't EVER want children (who'll have children who'll have children .... who'll have children who will all die from global warming - face it.).
Children are so much better off out of existance.
They won't have to tolerate life.

4. make a majour discovery -
This will make my life mean something.
I expect you to hear about it in about 10 years, when I find it (what is it? I donno).

Can't think of anything else but marijuana, so I'll stop here.

Save the world and get rich in the process.

 

[boogaboo]

Save the world and get rich in the process.

How could I forget saving the world via reorganization?!
I don't know the priority, since it it highly speculative/theoretic that it can be saved..

 

[Xen]

1)to assure my famillies contuiation

2)have a good life

3)make my name go down in history boks, and be associated with good stuff

4)recreate the roman empire

You can post an unserious goal
You can make a stupid-looking post
Please don't do both.
Oh, and "muhahahahahaha" is normally spelled "mwahahahahahaha".
Hey, this is OT, we can have stupid rules to our stupidity here!
