Poll: How Many Characteristics Do You Share With A Serial Killer?

[Neonbob]

I like spreading my brutal honesty with a spiky baseball bat.
You are a hideous waste of flesh who contains no hope for improvement as your life goes on.
*whacksplat*
There now.
*walks off whistling*

I know I am, but what are you?!

...Huh?

I...I am...that's a good question, actually. I must investigate further.
*dissects self*
It appears that I am a human. My hopes are dashed. Oh well.
*stuffs innards back into self*

No, you see I was implying that I was still planning to murder you. Regardless...this is a cometition that you're gonna lose. I killed at least 3 people this morning alone.

...That's it?
I killed seven just this past hour.

Yea? Well I shot the sheriff...killing 7 nobodys does not make you great, now once you get take out somebody important, then I might be impressed.

If we're basing our murder-off soley on nameless, faceless nobodys, well...don't insult me. Why not try Neonbob? Now there's an elusive target... or better yet, save me the trouble of Smiling Kitsune.

DON'T REPORT BACK, TILL YOU GOT SOME RESULTS!

How dare you, sir! I complement you a few threads ago, and now you threaten me? Well, I know when I'm not wanted. I'll just be off then.
Off on my way to find you first, that is! muahahahahahaha!

Serial killers tend to share the following general characteristics:

1. The majority are single, white males. Well, I'm a white male... But I'm dating someone for a few months now.
2. They are often intelligent, with IQs in the "bright normal" range. Check.
3. Despite their high IQs, they do poorly in school, have trouble holding down jobs, and often work menial jobs. Check. I work as a UPS Driver, with the damn brown suit and all...
4. They tend to come from unstable families. Check. My parents are divorced, for starters.
5. As children, they are typically abandoned by their fathers and raised by domineering mothers.
6. Their families often have criminal, psychiatric and alcoholic histories.
7. They often are mistrustful of their parents.
8. It is common to find that as children, they were abused?psychologically, physically and/or sexually?by a family member.
9. Many spend time in institutions as children and have records of early psychiatric problems.
10. They have high rates of suicide attempts.
11. From an early age, many are intensely interested in voyeurism, fetishism, and sadomasochistic pornography.
12. More than 60 percent wet their beds beyond the age of 12.
13. Many are fascinated with fire starting. Check. "KILL IT WITH FIRE!"
14. They are involved in sadistic activity or torturing small animals.

Freaky.

No, no, you're not "unwanted", in fact word on the thread is, that more than one escapist is vying for your death. You're in very high demand. But, if you think you can find me first, then I WELCOME the challenge.

 

[Naeo]

2.5.

Single white male.
I love starting fires (but not arson).
I'm of the higher echelons of intellect among those I know, but "bright normal" isn't quite it.

Oh. I didn't quite see it that way. Death threats will do that to you, you know.
...I see you're in Texas. You are therefore safe for now, as I am too lazy to drag myself all the way out to <color=white>Odessa and find you.

Actually Texas isn't so safe from serial killers.... I can't remember his name but awhile ago a well-known serial kill walked into Odessa (my home town) on foot, wearing some other bastards face over his. I wish I remembered all the details, but that's the sort of thing you would try to block out.

Yea, that was origionally supposed to be my contribution to the thread....Oh God, was that lightning!? (whimpers)

*scribbles in journal*
Leave...face...intact...Done!
And no. That was a cruise missile. Or maybe c4. Or a shotgun. Or a deranged maniac kicking down your house's door!
It was probably thunder.

 

[Unstoppable Wall]

There is such a thing as taking a joke too far. That guy was a murderer, and a sick person, I hate to kill the party, but nothing's cool about killing innocents.

(fun fact)

I'm damaged goods, remember? Many sick things can be funny to me. But I suppose that could have gone beyond the little white line in the blood-slicked floor.

Well, let's see here....

1. The majority are single, white males. Yup.
2. They are often intelligent, with IQs in the "bright normal" range. What if your IQ is above "bright normal?" I'll just assume that's a yes.
3. Despite their high IQs, they do poorly in school, have trouble holding down jobs, and often work menial jobs. Untrue
4. They tend to come from unstable families. Nope
5. As children, they are typically abandoned by their fathers and raised by domineering mothers. No
6. Their families often have criminal, psychiatric and alcoholic histories. Yes for door number 3
7. They often are mistrustful of their parents. Not really
8. It is common to find that as children, they were abused-psychologically, physically and/or sexually-by a family member. Heavens no
9. Many spend time in institutions as children and have records of early psychiatric problems. Nope
10. They have high rates of suicide attempts. ....not a high rate....
11. From an early age, many are intensely interested in voyeurism, fetishism, and sadomasochistic pornography. o.o No
12. More than 60 percent wet their beds beyond the age of 12. I'm clean.
13. Many are fascinated with fire starting. I was when I was younger, but now I'm not
14. They are involved in sadistic activity or torturing small animals. Again, o.o no.

So that puts me at... 5-ish, depending on how much weight you want to put in the partial answers.

6. Low enough that I'll let my friends take the risk.
