Subject: Who (or Whom) Should I Stalk?

I've been bored lately so I decided that I need a new hobby. I don't have any experience at stalking, but I've recently started parcticing. I started out with inanimate objects, like the footstool in the livingroom, and once I felt at ease with that I moved on to practice stalking my dog. Thing is, he's always too happy to see me and just wants to play.

Anyway, once I get my stalking chops together I'm going to have to decide who to stalk. Candidates that I've already rejected include:

Stang. He's too busy with other stalkers. Not to mention that he's way beyond my level of experience.

Legume. Eh, I'm sort of ambivilant about bald guys that carry big sharp knives.

nenslo. He'd probably wind up stalking ME.

Then there's the women I've scratched off my list:

iDRMRSR. A distinct possibility, but I think at this stage I might get stalking him confused with chubby chasing.

Alliekatt. No, she's an Irishwoman from what I gather, and with a pint or two in her, she'd just talk my ear off.

Rev Magdalen. HOLY MOTHER/WIFE OF JESUS! Nuf said.

So I'm at a loss now. Whom should I become psychotically obcessed with?

Thanks in advance.

I just got a video capture card and have been futzing with it for a week now. So I'm right out. Once I get the damn thing working I WILL be the king of the vampires.

stalking as in following someone around and being creepy, or stalking as in rubbing your eye-stalks all over them?

Chubby chasing has ALREADY been attempted. You have no idea how many of them I have to shake off in public places. Guys in elevators that ask me, if I don't mind saying, exactly how much I weigh. Creaming themselves when they find out.

Too bad I'm not Italian, or I could get a part on the Sopranos.

But I guess I don't mind the chasing. It's the WHALE RIDERS that I fear the most:

Me, of course.

Like there's really any other option.

COME ON. All Stang's "stalkers" are pussies. Even when he pissed off the White Supremacists and they made noises about pulling a Berg on him, he didn't get ONE stalker out of that bunch. Besides, he likes baiting stalkers--it's his #1 way of venting his spleen! You don't want to deprive a man of his HOBBY, do you?

You should be more worried about his lawnmower.

> nenslo. He'd probably wind up stalking ME.

Or he'd just dump a 55-gallon barrel of bile on you.

Plus the fact that he's utterly male, and not even transgendered.

Or pound you into the sand. Either way.

On the other hand, just think about how bright her Halloween would be if some weird guy started showing up at odd places to stare at her.

Here's the crux of your problem: You're attempting to be RATIONAL about this. A successful stalker does not let rationality hamper him/her; in fact, rationality generally doesn't EXIST for a good stalker, kind of the way that common sense doesn't exist for Dubya.

It'd help if you got really obsessed about some random, preferrably non-existent, quality of a person, and then chase after a random person who has that quality.

Come back when you're ready to follow a person for no good reason at all.

I agree with this post.

Try stalking the color blue. Or the number eleven. Or the concept of giddiness.

I myself prefer to stalk the dead because they squish so when you catch 'em.

It's funny you should say that. I once wrote off to Rev. Mag asking for a price break on the $30 Church membership, and she said exactly the same thing to me.

I dunno, I kinda fancy Legume's lawnmower right now.

Well anyway, I appreciate everyone's help on this. I've gone ahead and bought a pair of bib overalls and a rusty steak knife, so I'm just about all geared up. Anyone know where I can buy a bombed out '82 Pontiac Le Baron Station Wagon that's filled to the dash board with fast food wrappers and empty soda cups?
