I guess the character that I most match in real life would probably be Dilbert, though I cannot get my ties to stand up like that. For the character I would like to be, I am not sure. Bugs Bunny is great, so is Foghorn Legghorn, Superman, Spiderman, Freddy figuring out Daphne’s Mysteries. I choose Dogbert. He is smart, witty, and has reasonable goals of ruling the world.

Goose from Galaxy Rangers. Maybe Mark from Battle of the Planets (he drove the car). I could also really go for being Venger from Dungeons and Dragons. He had a cool horse. If I had to be a girl, then definately I would be A-KO from the anime movie Project: A-KO. How about Yogi Bear? H-H-Hey! Jinx the Cat? I hate mieces to pieces! Speaking of mieces, Jerry was cool. But then again. There’s always Droopy. Hello, I’m Droopy. There are so many I just can’t decide. I won’t damnit! I will remain an MCCPD (Multiple-Cartoon-Character Personality Disorder) sufferer forever! ---

Not original but I have to go with Dexter. That agent Honeydew is a babe but I may be a little young for her. I wonder if a Powerpuff girl would date a boy genius. ---

Hmmm, definatly either Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis, or Akito from Martian Successor: Nadesico. Hot chicks wanting me all around. Not to mention I’m a stud. Aw HELL! I just kickass all around. If I were limited to American cartoons… Roger Rabbit, definatly. Look at his wife for Christ’s sake. ---

hmmm…since someone already mentioned the Powerpuff girls (I wanted Blossom!)…I’ll call dibs on **Wonder Woman**. and I reserve ultra-cool **Death** from the Sandman series. It’s not as morbid as it sounds, trust me, she’s the _coolest_. ---
