I'm in a bit of a sappy mood tonight. So I ask you, how would you like to be remembered. Not necessarily after death, but maybe to the friends that you have now that you'll lose contact with, and then one day they find a picture of you somewhere. How would you like them to remember you?

I think I'd like to be remembered as somebody in the background that would lend a helping hand and bring a smile, and then leave to do the same somewhere else. If one of my friends finds a picture or reference to me in 30 years, I want them to smile, even if it's for no reason in particular. A specific memory doesn't have to be associated with me. Just a splash of color of emotion. Maybe it'd be because of a joke, maybe because I was there for them at a difficult time, maybe because I gave them rides to school or work. I like the idea of being in the shadows, so to speak, just giving a helping hand when needed, and then disappearing until needed again. There's something almost poetic about it.

Like I said, sappy mood.

For having good food at my funeral. And live music.

I want to be remembered as the guy who was really good with da ladeez.

But then I would actually have to be good with "da ladeez"

I want to leave my mark on history so that future generations will remember my name.

I'd like to be remembered... but chances are you all completely forgot about me until you just read this post.

I want to be forgotten as quickly as possible..

I want to have an entry on wikipedia or failing that, the imdb under my name. :p

As "That guy who jumped out of a plane without a parachute into a 6 year old's birthday party, then there were fire works and free food as his closed casket funeral"

Protein stains come out with club soda... :p

The things you'll learn from reading Survivor though (by Chuck Palahniuk).

Anyways...I dunno. I can't really worry about being remembered because I know that within a handful of years, I will cease to be remembered...so why bother?

I want to be remembered as the Dark Lord, the man transformed -- ascended, even -- to become the one who destroyed most of civilization and recreated the surviving portion in his own design. Nobody will remember why I did it, who I was before it all began, but people will remember my new name forever.

And you know this ... because ...?

Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk.

Read it if you don't believe me (or hell, just read it.)

I only feel the need to be remembered that I love, and those that love me.

I want people to remember that i left the same way as the gay magician, i disappeared with a poof

Don't care. Everybody gets forgotten anyways. You can be a hobo living alone in the street, when you die, you'll be forgotten right away. You can be the man who's conquered the world and changed human society for all time - you'll still be forgotten at some point.

As long as I'm not remembered for anything bad I don't care one way or another.

I'd rather not be remembered.

my funeral starts, everyone is sitting down, kill the lights. my body comes down off wires from the ceiling, hit the flashing lights, then, techno music

^^Pablo...something...

I loved that skit.

pablo francisco

with my pants down.

What if Oma de Sala stops you?

as the guy that took down osama bin laden and everybody else within the 30 mile radius.


ah, i dunno. probably just remembered as the guy that just sat by himself, uncaring.....

I want to be a famous rockstar/ guitarist.

CORRECTION. its nick swardson

I've no doubt I'll be forgotten, and only remembered by the fact my birth record will still be somewhere around here.

Then write one?
