What is your weakness?

Ok, so what is your weakness? What are the things that can bring you down to your knees and make whoever is holding the tool of weakening your boss? In another word, what is your Krypnoite?

Mine would have to be kittens, airplanes, & Asian women. *nods*

A good looking gal is the most surefire way to get me to do anything.


Past that? Dunno... the promise of things like money/instruments/nice cars etc might do it, but that seems different than what you're asking.

I have a lot of them, and apparently i spend the better part of my time shifting them around me like a flimsy shield.

As far as one inparticular, i think the disarmament of true mercy/sympathy from another probably nails me, like it did when i saw footage of so many people reacting worldwide to the attacks on 9/11.

Not platitudes, of course, but the real thing.

Also, I hate getting wet. Though Alberta has shown me that I should clarify, rain is merely moist air.

Bullets.
Also knives, broken bottles, baseball bats, brass knuckles, normal knuckles, getting kicked in the face, getting kicked in the groin, getting kicked about anywhere else, reasonably large rocks, unreasonably large rocks, small rocks that get flicked really hard so that sting real bad, rocks that are neither large nor small, bricks, socks stuffed with pennies, chains, whips, 2 by 4s, barbed wire, razor wire, barbed/razor wire wrapped around a 2 by 4, and, generally, physical violence of any sort. Aside from that, I'm pretty much unstoppable.

Let's do this in Top Ten form.

Shall we?

10. Being useful. I'm a sucker for the ability to be useful.

9. Car-racing video games. I can kill hours playing those.

8. Mind-numbing yet sudden silliness.

7. Reality shows. At least none of the stupid ones.

6. Being able to write in white text. ;)

5. The UN forum's Silly Proposal thread.

4. The blocked field goal to end Appalachian State's mind-numbing upset of Michigan on Saturday. I could watch that thing every hour on the hour and it wouldn't get old.

3. Chicken wings.

2. I like big butts and I cannot lie...and big, well, everything else, at least on a lady...

And the Number One Weakness...

Drum roll please...

...

...

1. Kittens.

My true weakness is a woman gently touching the back of my head, neck, or lightly running her nails across my shoulders. I just totally melt.

Seriously, its a superhero scale weakness. Unfortunately a lot of women know this now and take serious advantage of it. When they want something but I'm involved in a conversation with someone else, they just come up next to me and start scratching my head like I'm a newborn kitten and I can't maintain the conversation. Worse yet is when a girl needs a favor - she just comes up and gives me one of those around the neck kind of hugs but when she pulls away, she leaves her wrists on my shoulders so she can lightly run her fingertips over the back of my head and neck while she looks me in the eye and asks for whatever favor she wants... doesnt matter what it is, she gets it.
