Good LORD you crack me up.
Sweet Jesus, that is funny.
I also identify with the Goonies. So, yeah. I'm the Goonie at Dorothy Parker's round table.
I guess it's all about what school of thought or philosophy or lifestyle appeals to you most, and helps design who you are. Being totally honest, your answer is the best answer. Or some version of it: "Everything I ever learned is from something I, well, learned." Heh. It can't just be experience though, because we create all kinds of false memories and blackout other things and don't retain everything. So maybe it's what we retain that defines us, and the rest is fodder for our dreams and nigtmares.
I'd like to be the goofball art lady who sits around with a bunch of seriously stylish and serious minded intellectuals, while I simultaneously enjoy their compnay and despair from it, thinking they're far too into their own brains for their own good, so why don't I just go over to where that cute drunky carpenter is sitting by the bar and buzz the night with him a while....but not before I gossip viciously about this and that outfit with my vicious circle counterparts. And then, later with the carpenter, post naked tussle and pre the morning after, we'll go off on some sort of Goonie like adventure. And we'll never say die.
You know, that *does* sound like me. Cool.
