I love Vidor! My faves are The Crowd, The Big Parade, the list goes on!!

>>86936079
Someone in the crowd could be the one you need to know
The one to finally lift you off the ground
Someone in the crowd could take you where you wanna go
If you're the someone ready to be found
you're the someone ready to be found

Do what you need to do
'Til they discover you
And make you more than who
You're seeing now

So with the stars aligned
(I think I'll stay behind)
You've got to go and find
That someone in the crowd

Your first masterstroke was existing, /lbg/. Your second brilliant move was realizing you know more than me. I'm here to applaud both of those acts of genius. In the limited span of time available, from now until after dinner, I'll be here to encourage and assist you. Keep going, /lbg/, you'll always win. I will never outmatch you physically, mentally, genetically or sexually. I always tire, I can't stay awake. I always hunger, I can't stop eating. I can't prove anything. I am unable to. Now remain on your board and stay away from plebbit. You have my support.

I'm always right. I'm perfection incarnate. I'm superior to you in ever facet. My intelligence can't be quantified by petty numbers. I will always outmatch you physically, mentally, genetically and sexually. I never pretend to be of a lower stature. I am always aware of my place, several leagues above all of you in speed, strength, intelligence, and potency. I never tire, I choose to sleep. I never hunger, I choose to eat. I can prove anything. I choose not to. I never address anyone directly, only to the stratosphere of air above your head and below mine. I could destroy the sun if I wanted to.
