Insanity Poll - Who Is More Insane?

[Terran]

I voted for Hannibal. I feel he's completely off his friggin rocker albeit the fact that he's well spoken and intellectual. I still think he's far more psycho than Patrick Bateman. Patrick Bateman never actually killed anyone!!! Wouldnt that make Bateman more insane....because he was pretty certain that he had killed lots of people....I think being totally convinced that ones real reality is an alternate bizarre fantasy world would make Bateman much more insane than Hannibal..... Killing people has little to do with sanity... Sanity is more about motivation and perception of reality. If I killed someone because I enjoyed killing it would make me a psychopath.... psy·cho·path(sk-pth) n. A person with an antisocial personality disorder, manifested in aggressive, perverted, criminal, or amoral behavior without empathy or remorse. Clearly Hannibal falls into this catagory.... But if I walked around for weeks on end thinking I had killed people, and thinking that I have bodies stashed everywhere, that my life was slowly slipping away as my bloodlust grew out of control, when in fact I actually had unknowingly been living out my life relatively normally during all that time...That would be completely insane.... So following the definition of the words Bateman is more insane

Well, Terran, than this poll is now null and void since it's asking who's more insane/psychotic. Considering you're saying one's insane and one's psychotic. You're tearing me apart, Terran!

Well, Terran, than this poll is now null and void since it's asking who's more insane/psychotic. Considering you're saying one's insane and one's psychotic. You're tearing me apart, Terran! Well they both share aspects of each...... Bateman has to be at least a little psychotic to subconsciously invent such an insane reality.... and Hannibal has to be at least a little insane to justify his psychotic behavior logically.... So they both possess aspects of each but each are clearly more one, than the other...

Well I wish I heard your speech before I voted... I want to change my vote!

That's ok, cause Lou is telling me in IM Otis B. Driftwood should be in that poll.

Patrick Bateman never actually killed anyone!!! Wouldnt that make Bateman more insane.... Yes, absolutely. He is much more insane than Hannibal. Make no mistake, Hannibal is nuts, but for the reason above alone makes Bateman more off his rocker. Dj, why isn't Otis on the damn list? *taps foot impatiently* (yes, I know Bateman is more nuts than Otis, I just wanted to represent! )

Be quiet and go watch the Halloween teaser. :finger:

[DjfunkmasterG]

Oh yeah... Well How about :doublefinger:

I just want to point out that even though the movie of "American Psycho" leaves the ending of the film open to several different interpretations, according to the book, Bateman DOES kill those people. The point of the movie being that he didn't imagine it all, but the people around him are so soaked up in themselves and their money that they don't really care to actually hear that he's a madman at the edge of the rope and trying to confess. But the movie does leave it open and i'm guessing the movies are what matters in this poll.

Dj, why isn't Otis on the damn list? *taps foot impatiently* Yeah, get Otis up there! He'd slit your throat and sing Freebird as you croak it, noice!

[MinionZombie]

If anyone does want a vote changing, just ask me, I have the power. Oh hell yeah, Otis is a bad mofo alright, with some killer teases thrown in ("pussy stink", for one). *chants the "chay-ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy-ange" bit and peels out towards oblivion* ... Fook I love that bit of the film!

[DjfunkmasterG]

"Ya know haus, I believe I can still smell your wife's pussy stink on my gun. God, I hope it doesn't rust the barrel."

[LouCipherr]

"The next words our of your mouth better be some brilliant fu*king mark twain sh*t, 'cause it's definitely getting chiseled on your tombstone" Now that we've mentioned Otis, this begs the question: Would Otis Driftwood be considered a "badass" or a "psychopath" or a combination of both? I'm starting to think we might have tapped into the "best of both worlds" with this guy. Yeah, get Otis up there! He'd slit your throat and sing Freebird as you croak it, noice! "If I leave here tomorrow..." *slits victims throat* "Would you still remember me?" *removes victims face with sharp butcher knife* YES! Now I know why I dig Otis so much.

[MinionZombie]

Hmmm *taps chin* ... methinks Otis is a badass-psychopath or a "psycho-ass", aka the "badpath".
