As in, what are you hoping for in life? What do you want to accomplish, if anything?

First 'world domination' post in a 'what are you ambitions' thread.




It wont be the last.

Hmm Aristotle's eudaimon life sounds nice.

First 'world domination' post in a 'what are you ambitions' thread.




It wont be the last.

You know, I never quite understood that. What is the point of world domination? You'll never have another minute to yourself...

Nothing really springs to mind.

Conquer the World.

20+ Wickets and over 100 Runs for my Cricket Season.

I wanna learn how to ski, and speak Swedish.

I want to become a pure mathematician and work on cryptography and systems integrity. :cool: If I manage that, I'll be truly happy.

dunno. too many and too varied.
the problem is trying to whittle them down to the achievable ones


edit: i suppose the one concrete and achievable ambition i have is to raise a family

My main ambition is to actually complete at least one of the stories I've been working on and get it published. If that doesn't work, then I'll opt for striving to have great sex like I used to in my late teens/early twenties. I miss great sex. A lot. Maybe I'll just write a book about great sex and masturbate every five seconds.

Are you suggesting I write it with... ew.

bah you need to get yourself a british sense of humour... bodily functions = funnay round here (aren't we cultured :D)

Don't get me wrong. I found it funny, I just get vivid mental pictures and this particular one happened to be about a person reading the book. My imagination is very warped.

That, is the wrongest thing I have heard, all week...

and considering my friends bought me a blow up sheep which can be fucked as a joke, it qualifies pretty well...

I didn't use the sheep by the way...


Now, for ambitions:
I wanna work in the area of nuclear physics, seems interesting, and has potential...
For other ambitions, I wanna screw my friends hot Mum :P

You know, I never quite understood that. What is the point of world domination? You'll never have another minute to yourself...But it makes it so much easier to improve things in the world. No more war, fair distribution of life's primary needs, instant aid in case of catastrophy. (Disclaimer: valid only under rule of benevolent world dictators)

ok, eew :eek:
(depends who you're imagining reading the book though ;))

heh well i do try :cool:
and i got one of those sheep for my mate at uni... w00t! (also never "used", bar as a beer bottle holder... heh)

As soon as you start that distribution-bit, a good deal of people will stop considering you benevolent..

My main ambition is to actually complete at least one of the stories I've been working on and get it published.

Ditto...I have four "works in progess", and none of them are likely to be finished any time soon.

My career goal is to write for a major metropolitan newspaper or a news magazine. Preferably editorials instead of investigative journalism, but I'll take what I can get.

Although, knowing my luck, they'll probably stick me with the job of covering local high-school sports. :p

Make money from the crap that comes from my head. Right now I'm pretty close so it's kinda cool-but not the same....

A custom entertainment room, with a HDTV projector, a Xbox 360, a Nintendo Revolution, a PS3, an Alienware Gaming computer, a 7.1 surround stereo system with (4) 15 inch subwoofers and a comfy Lazyboy chair.

And a huge garage with a metal shop, all kinds of tools, a couple four wheelers, a couple snowmobiles, a Corvette, a 78 Chevy 1500 series truck on 38 inch superswampers with a 396.

And a green room for a nice indoor garden, for tomatos, watermelon, corn,herbs, and pot.

yeah, the scary thing is, they bought it off ebay... I was kinda catious when we took it into the pool and down to the beach.. good fun though :)

As soon as you start that distribution-bit, a good deal of people will stop considering you benevolent..Nah, only a few at most. Besides, their considerations hardly factor into it.
And it's not necessarily something that has to be done overtly. In fact, it's not necessary for most people to know I was ruling the world, given the right means.

In the green room, siily! It'll be like a tropical paradise. I might even get me some birds! :D

Attatch microphones to the birds to enhance the ambience! Get some peacocks, too. That would be great! Make sure there's a waterfall somewhere in there. I likes waterfalls. :D

Video games demand that there must be something hidden behind the waterfall.

Definately. Perhaps a hidden lair complete with video surveillance? A lot of interesting things could happen in a tropical green room.

Prince of Persia anyone? The number of times in that game I have been unting around for ages to work out the puzzle and the answer was behind the waterfall...

Yay for PoP: The 2 thrones in about a week :D

Well, one day I'd like to get married and hopefully have children (although one day=many years away)

I'd also like to become a published author.

First 'world domination' post in a 'what are you ambitions' thread.




It wont be the last.

Damn straight!

1. Translate my weird, far-from-finished text based RPG in Swedish to English and finish it. Oh, and include things that blow the mind of anyone who plays it through completely. I want whoever thinks through it all throughoutly to end up a weird, misanthropic, and highly rational, madman.

2. Improve my self-control to the point where I can control my emotions completely by will. (atleast one-third there already)

3. Either become immortal or bring all of humanity with me when I die.

Oh yeah! And I'll need some birds that talk, so they can yell "five oh" when the cops come so I can hide my pot plants.

I GOT IT!!!!!!!!!! I'll grow it BEHIND THE WATERFALL! :D

I miss great sex. A lot. Maybe I'll just write a book about great sex and masturbate every five seconds.

if this was my ambition "MY" life is fullfilled.... ;)

so I want to
1.publish my Rock Opera
2.collect as many chicks as a wolf can collect
3.die without pain...

if this was my ambition "MY" life is fullfilled.... ;)

Rub it in my face why dontcha! I suppose it would be an easy ambition to achieve if I were willing to leave my boyfriend, but I'm unreasonably stubborn.

Oh yeah! And I'll need some birds that talk, so they can yell "five oh" when the cops come so I can hide my pot plants.

You want to sell the sheep then?
Seriously, the ambition stuff is over for me. Well sort of. When I was younger I wanted to be a professional musician. I got to semi pro, played with some top names too. The I realised it was not only hard work, but I had to make a sensible choice. My day job got the better of it and I dropped the axe for good. Now my only ambition is to retire to a house by the coast and a fast boat.

Well, there are quite a few but the main ones can be cut down to:

Publish at least one novel, preferably a few more (two works in progress atm, neither anywhere near completion)

Get an awesome degree in astrophysics, gather to my banner a bunch of badass geniuses and together create a spaceship that could colonise another planet (in another solar system). The sad and somewhat scary thing is that I actually have many of the design specifications worked out lol.

Get married and have a great family - right now my first choice of wife would be my girlfriend, but since im only 16, well... it'd have to be one long-ass relationship lol, which frankly, I don't seem to have got the hang of. It would be seriously great if it did happen though. Especially since then I wouldn't have to travel 100 or so miles to see her.















And world domination :D

I wanna visit every country in the world. For at least a week.

First and most important, I would like to be a good wife and mother.
If I still have time after I figure that out and as long as it doesn't interfere, I am hoping to become an Enrolled Agent with the IRS so that I can help people who have become audited.

Don't really have any.

Don't really have any.


Me niether tbh. I like the idea of winning lotto. I'd need to start buying tickets though.

Yeah.

I could use a car, I suppose.

Hmm....directing my own porno movie would also be pretty sweet.

And maybe owning a ridiculously large version of those pendulum type thingies that rich people have in their offices.

But yeah, i'm easy pleased.

I use my dads car. Dinged it the other day too.

As in, what are you hoping for in life? What do you want to accomplish, if anything?
Step one: get my goddam PhD
Step two: build the world's tallest sky scraper
Step three: base-jump off of said sky scraper
Step four: die instantly and painlessly in my sleep, at the age of 115, after making love to my 20 year old trophy husband on my private jet

Seriously, though, at this point I'd settle for finishing my PhD thesis.

As in, what are you hoping for in life? What do you want to accomplish, if anything?
Set up a scorpion farm! Scorpion venom is worth over £500 per millilitre!

Be the person responsible for creating the virulent pandemic "Terminal Stupidity" Virus that identifies Extroverted Verbal Spammers, Shallow Thinkers and other general fools and causes their bodies to evaporate.

Well, if you can go and colonise your own planet, that last one may not be so unattainable ;)

To be a good Christian, a good husband, a good father, and at least a halfway decent teacher. :p

for some reason I read that as when great minds urinate.

my ambition is to become an Author

To dominate the entire universe.
If that doesn't work, then I'll opt for striving to have great sex like I used to in my late teens/early twenties. I miss great sex. A lot.
Yoo-hoo!! Over here! *waves hands*

I can help you with that!!!!

I wish. :(

Sorry, no offense. I've been pissed of at women lately so I wanted to get something off my back and let off some steam. Again, No offense.

EDIT: or, it could be that i just wanna fucking get laid because my raging hormones are fueling the fire that is my anger, i guess. ;)

My own ambition is just to be happy enough to stay alive :)

Not much, I know, but a hard fight nevertheless.

Short-term goals: Learn French, Finish my novel
Long-term goals: Move to Canada (unhooray for tons of red tape!)

What are you? My clone or something?

Become an Anthro Kitty through some bizarre cosmetic surgery, need to know a dodgy medical pioneer lol

Set up my own micro brewery and have a pint of my own bitter (or IPA) served at my local.

or be the father of controllable Fusion, or room temperature superconductors (then I can set up my brewery)

I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.

Really though, I guess the only reason I'm putting up with this ridiculous "life" crap is because I wonder what'll happen in the end.

Honestly, I wnat to be remembered in history books. I want people to read about me 500 years in the future. I want my name to echo throughout eternity.

I want to be Ophra.

I want my name to echo throughout eternity.

I want to be Ophra.
Just get a big metal bucket with the word "eternity" written down the side and yell your name really loud down it.

I would love to be a published writer...until then, perhaps a Diplomat within the EU. Something to do with languages. And even perhaps modelling. Then, domination of the EU :D Then all that is left is the world. But yeh, being a published is my main focus :p That, and reading the huge list of books I want to read. :rolleyes:

I would like to learn to surf. ANd speak Greek, Latin, and hebrew fuently(I am studying anceint mederterrian studies in college so they just might come in handy). I would like to travel outside this crumbling nation. I would like to learn to sail and to sail around the world solo(or with lotos hot womens).

I want to be supreme ruler of the world. If that happens, I will appoint Disraeliland ruler of Australia, Dogburg II ruler of the United Kingdom, and I will partition part of the world among the rest of my friends. I will rule as a benevolent dictator. Social freedoms would be virtually unlimited, people could spend their money how they wanted, people would rise and fall on their own merits, and the economy would be 100% laissez faire. However, there would be no elections (except possibly local elections).

Ambition is so passé.

A race I'll win! Mwahahahahahaha! *Pats EM on the back* There, there, you can have Mars, or something. ;)

Hah, I will have my scientists discover new technologies to transform it into a veritable Garden of Eden.

Hmm...

I want to get my predicted GCSEs, go to the college I want to get into, get 4 A-Levels, take a gap year and go travelling around the world (including some volunteer-work) then go to university and study up to the level of a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology or a PhD in some area of Psychology, eventually becoming a Clinical or Counselling Psychologist. I'd also love to work with children at some point, perhaps specifically with children who have severe learning disabilities. And getting somewhere with my writing would be fantastic too.

I also want to get married (or be in some form of life-long relationship) and raise a family. I think that having and raising my own children takes priority over a career, but then again they both go hand in hand really - I want a decent career to be able to provide for my children.

I also want to somehow beat my depression once and for all.

There are lots of smaller things I want to do in my life but I don't think I could list them all.

I also want to somehow beat my depression once and for all.
Can I help? :fluffle: :D

Depression is highly internal. To overcome it, one must actually want to. It often takes psychiatric help. I suffer from it to varying degrees, going from very happy to nearly suicidal.

Can I help? :fluffle: :D
that's my job dude! and i do it (what i can) with gusto :)

One of the following:

- academic
-author
- art critic
-politician
-corporate lawyer

and generally, so disgustingly rich it's untrue

Pass collage. Of course, then my life would be meaningless. So I'm working on staying in collage for as long as possible. Two or three decades would do.

My goal in life has always been, and will always be to be happy. I'm pleased to say I fairly often succeed with that goal.

Dogburg II ruler of the United Kingdom

Haha, awesome - thanks!

I dunno what I want to do.
Eventually I want to get a job that allows me to live comfortably, get married and have kids. I would kinda like to publish some sort of philosophical literature that would completely alter the way people think about the world.

Oh, plus the whole bit about learning a couple more languages and travelling...

I want a nice little place to call my own.
I want a decent job, that pays the bills, with a little left over for spending foolishly.
I want a woman to hang out with, and have wild monkey sex.
I want to keep my friends close, and enjoy thier company frequently.


Thats about it.

I want to be a doctor. Then retire at 55ish. Go live somewhere pretty and secluded with my wife. Something like that anyway..
*dreams*

I just mentioned my ambition in another thread:

I'm (kind of) in the process of getting help. I just have such mood swings (even more so than you, it seems) that it's easy to convince myself I'm going to be fine and put it off. Good luck with it yourself :)

Thanks :)

I'd like to start a band and make some really memorable music. Other than that? Meh.

I'd like the world to be a better place as a result of my being.

I want to be remembered as someone who did something important. Sound vague? Well it is. Because at different times, I figured I'd do it through music, writing, or political work of various kinds. When I figure it out, I'll let you know!

:p Hehe, sorry TPE, Huw's highly satisfactory in his job of keeping me happy :fluffle:

If a guy rejects you? :p

My ambition is to create nanobots that can safely rearrange my bodily structures and program them to shift me into form of a large wolf by the power of my thoughts, thus acheiving artificial lycanthropy...

I also want to acheive something similar to electrokenisis...which is slightly more realistic in the realm of nanotechnology....well...not right now, maybe in the future, I dunno.

I WILL leave NS if women keep fucking rejecting me.

There, there, don't feel bad. :fluffle:

The internets - not to mention a forum that is politics and roleplay related - is only marginally better for picking up women than crack-houses, dingy back alley dives, death metal concerts, feminist conventions and psych wards. Yeah, it's possible, but it's probably a lot easier on you if you drop the idea.

bah you need to get yourself a british sense of humour... bodily functions = funnay round here (aren't we cultured :D)

I love England.
