Lol just the fact that you refer to yourself as an ever quest monk tells the true story...I'll stick with my 9-11 vote for now...

I said I am the closest thing this forum has to an EverQuest monk, and I will stick to that. Who else here regularly exercises, and keeps a heavy bag and other various exercise equipment behind their computer desk to train martial arts and stay in shape WHILE they game?
I live in the middle of the Appalachian mountains and go months without seeing other human beings (perhaps that's why I'm chattier online than other people? IDK).
I am completely content being alone to meditate and exercise. This is a common theme with war veterans dating back to the beginning of time.

I love martial arts and I live for physical exhaustion (it's like a drug to me, and why I love manual labor jobs). This morning I woke up, and
before I even brushed my teeth I began wrapping my fists to do heavy bag drills for 30 minutes.
I'm extremely into mental fortitude, as are most elite soldiers. You can take the most physically fit guy and the most out of shape guy, and when they are both at muscle failure the physically fit guy has no physical advantage over the out of shape guy. This is when you start to see the difference between someone who is mentally strong, and someone who is mentally weak. I've seen so many ripped guys wash out of training, and so many weak nerds that I didn't expect to make it through the first week go on to graduate.
I have an insane amount of will power and discipline, which is why I'm not fat with 3 kids I don't want, and why I have enough free time to live my life the way I want to. I really do feel like a larger-than-life real life super hero. No matter where I go in life people are always shocked at my ability to work circles around others without ever getting tired.
