On Role-Models

We all need role-models. It’s hard to be a person with their own thoughts and ideas, so many of us choose to think the thoughts and ideas of other people.

Common sources of inspiration include family members, religious figureheads, and personalities from popular culture.

My personal role-model growing up was Bob, the demonic rapist and serial killer from early ‘90’s television series Twin Peaks.



Bob raped his teenage daughter repeatedly from early adolescence, and then killed her in an abandoned railway car in the woods.



I really like Bob, and I have a 30x20 inch canvas print of his face. I hang it above my bed, to remind myself as I doze off to sleep that death is unavoidable, only the cruel and merciless can survive in this world, and humankind was not put on this earth to feel joy.
