I’d be floating around in your inkjet printer, waiting to be spit out and rearranged at high speed to create an image of you cat or something. ---

I suppose it depends on whether our friend takes our intentions behind our usernames into account, or just uses the most convenient real-world meaning. If the former, I’ll be an opera singer who isn’t quite sure what his most appropriate rep is. More or less the same as now. If the latter, I suppose I would just walk around being really perplexed by containers. ---

I would end up as either an automoton, or a clown, I guess. Hmm. I suppose I could find a way to make a living with either of those if I tried hard enough. ---

The OP may be disposable, but I’m not. Probably wouldn’t post much as I’d be busy fighting foes, appearing in movies, comic books, Broadway, & the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade among other places. ---
