Aww poor Lens.

I want to see how someone can actually like this disaster of a person so

Vcharon

Yes, but you see, I don't see charon the way you all see charon. Whatever began the anti-charon hatewagon years ago didn't get over with me because I wasn't here, and I can't watch it for 9.99 a month on the WWE Network. When I came to the board, I saw a guy who was welcoming to me in the Gauntlet crew (a decision he regrets once every three months :P). From there, I developed a real soft spot for the guy; he would be the first to admit that his life hasn't been daisies and daffodils from the get-go, and I think even now despite having a lot more happiness, he's still not where he could be. He's intelligent and passionate and really has an immutable sense of right and wrong. I think the latter trait has caused a lot of disconnect for him with the board because everything out of moderation is bad - it can turn into self-righteousness when he IS right or utter stubborness when he's wrong. I think what drew me to him is the fact that I admire loyalty and I like to see someone who really values friendship. That is charon in a nutshell. I think if you asked him the most important trait in a person, he would say loyalty. I think he also exhibits loyalty, but his downside is that if you fail to meet his standard (because we're all human), he sees it as an act of disloyalty and not a failure to meet a very high (nigh impossible) standard.

Charon at his best is someone who gives a shit, which is honestly something that most of the world should do. I like people who care. There aren't enough of them.
