I could so pick characters for everyone else, but for me? I don't think I was in that book.

If you find it you wont understand it. If you can understand it you wont be able to find it. It's catch 22

Good on you, man.

Oh, and I am totally, totally so not Dobbs. Though under those circumstances it'd be hard to say. But what the Hell would I be doing there in the first place?

I'm probably Major Major Major. You can come in to see me at any time that I'm not in.

I am Orr. :)

I'm probably Major Major Major. You can come in to see me at any time that I'm not in.You forgot his rank. Or his first name. Or his middle name. Or his last name.

I'd probably be Yossarian, considering my tendency towards paranoia and the fact that it's been proven correct.

I find I'm like Yossarian. I even have a pain just short of jaundice.

funny how something you are planning on doing very soon comes into your life in numerous other ways, kind of reminding you that you were planning on doing it.

i have catch 22 on my bedside table. it is my next read, whihc i was planning on starting tonight. but instead i am now typing in a thread on NSG. this will be my first time reading it. i have been told it is a very good and easy read.

Nately's Whore?



I wanted to say Orr, but clearly Lunatic Goofballs fits that far better.

I'm Snowden!

No, change my answer-the old man in the lobby, that scene always stuck with me.

It's been a while since I read it, but I might be the old guy in the whore-house. Either that or Yossarian himself.

You can understudy as Orr. I can see you as Orr. :)

If I join you in discussing the relative sanity of fictional characters....could this be used as proof that I am not sane?

Speaking of dangerously eccentric thinking, did you see the link I posted of the Wile E Coyotesque spring shoes in action ? If so when are you expecting your pair in the mail?

That was for those stilt-like trampoline shoes, right?

They were certainly interesting. *nod*

I'd say Yossarian. Knows how to have a good time and I'm a bit like him. Plus he survives;) . If not him I'll be Big Chief Halfoat.I think I'll die of Pneumonia.

Also Catch 22 is my favourite book.

Straughn says: [if i could post] i'd offer that i was Yossarian, but i'm not so lecherous.

i'm almost as paranoid

and quirksome in certain logical strands

but i don't feel so mortally imperiled that i need to jump everyone

A little of him, McWatt, Major Major, Snowden, and perhaps even the kid on the gurney that Doc had Yossarian fill in for

And Orr

Snowden, I guess.. I'm to lazy to bother existing. :p That takes effort.

Edit: I've only read the book, and haven't seen the movie.. so this choice is subject to change.

I am probably Captain Yossarian. I hate the army as much as he does and I hate the idea of increasing missions.
