I would have to go with loyalty just because it seems to fit me more than any of the others.

I voted for Justice, although if you piss me off enough my answer might become revenge.

I was gonna go with Humor but i instead went with Revenge/vengance. It's the way I am i guess, there are people I'd like to get back at for the past, but other than that... I dunno, lol.

Well I believe love is the supreme emotion for several reasons so that's what I chose. It's the one thing we should all strive for. Anger, revenge and fear has never been productive and never will be when looking at the big picture.

I'm a humor kind of guy. Love would be close if I had a lover at the moment, but I'm currently single. I enjoy finding the humor in any situation. It's my prime defense whenever I may feel I'm offended (which is rarely), I just look to humor as a defense mechanism. I like to start conversations with humor, and try to make others laugh. I also like to take every-day situations that I think about or situations presented to me and just think of the humor in it, if there is any, and focus on it. It's my gift to the world thumbup.gif . The world would be a monotonous place without the happiest emotion of all, humor.

I'd like to be humor. Everyone should enjoy a good laugh now and then...or all the time. =D

I go with humor, too. I always enjoy when I put a smile on somebody's face. Everybody needs a good laugh now or then and the world does need people to tell a good joke.

Honestly, I'm not sure...but I think I'd choose contentment. Contentment with myself and the world around me, understanding myself clearly and achieving inner peace, I suppose if I could embody an emotion that would be it.

The number one thing I'm known for is humor, so it's an easy choice for me. I find it empowering. If you can make people laugh, you bring them all down to your level. It's hard to make fun of the class clown.

And one by one I watched every constellation die

To find that she wasn't here, I'm still all alone

It was a tie for me between anger/rage and revenge/vengence. While I am a happy and funny person around my friends there is that part of me that is angry. I was revenge to the SOB who broke my back when I was frosh in high school in wrestling and the punk who broke my shoulder my senior year in wrestling and cost my my shot at the state title. Trust me it is hard wrestling with one arm dangling at the side. And since I never had surgery on either they hurt like hell. But I guess I am a fighter at nature especially when someone tries to mess with my family or friends, I will take them out in a second with no regrets. That is just the way I am I guess.

I chose anger/rage because I've always kept things bottled up, and it's all exploding in it's full fury..
I'm a pretty angry person..
I have an ugly temper that I got from my father..
I just can't hide it anymore...

I voted "other" because mine would have to be cynicism/scorn. I realize it's not the best emotion to live one's life by, but it's the one I've got the most of. Meh.

I went with humour. Though I am angry a lot, I don't enjoy it. Being funny, making people laugh, and making them happy, is truly what I enjoy.

I chose "Other" for nostalgia. A lot of what I do every day is wallow in nostalgia, sitting there for hours. Or I look up sites with my favorite stuff from the early 90's...

Of those listed, I think I would fit best as justice. I have a bit of a large family, and in such a setting "political parties" sometimes form; I have been known (much to the consternation of many of those who thought I was on their side) to suddenly take an opposing position, if that is what I believe to be correct. I would like to think that I am fair with everyone, and will stand by the truth, despite whom that may be in favor of. I would very much be content if I was remembered for being fair.

Of those not listed, I would like to think that I am "patience," or "forbearance." I like to think that if there was one defining cuality to myself, it is that I always get back up.

Eh, just my thoughts, it would be interesting to find out what other's thought I was.

I chose "other". In this case, that would be idealism. I feel that this term is actually quite subjective. In other words, it would mean different things to different people.

To me, "idealism", when used in this context, to be the overwhelming urge to follow my ideals. I have a personal set of ideals that I have compiled after numerous experiences in my life, fused together with seleced beliefs from my religion. It has become a personal unwritten law for me to, to the best of my ability, to follow this set of ideals. It can be considered to be somewhat similar, but not altogether identical,to justice, since that is not the only thing it entails. Others include the belief that ALL humans, regardless of ANYTHING, are equal, and should thus be treated equally unless circumstances say otherwise, or the belief that luck does not exist and that you make your own fate. They are all actually made after I have seen the consequences of injustice. However, since justice is not what it is all about, I chose not to choose it.

I probably have not been able to conform to this set of principles at all times, but I try my best. Indeed, it has become the driving force of my life. Thus, although these change (though this is rare), I lead a very idealistic, principle-driven life.

I'd be me. Del is an emotional satate achived only by a few people, all of them called Derek, a state of mind. Its insanity, intellegence (apparently) and Humour, as well as the ability to tricxk people in some indivduals...

Okay, seriously, what all that means is that i'd be many emotions rolled into one, as i could never be just one. But if i ahd to eb one, id take humour...

I voted Justice because I have very strong ideals concerning it.
