Topic: I want to be amazing

I don't care what I have to do, how hard it is, how much I have to learn, I want people to remember me in 100 years and go "holy shit, that guy was fucking something else". The thing is, do I go with being famous or do I go with being infamous? Be the man who kidnaps the president and kills him and leaks the video around the world, or be the man who through self sacrifice saves millions of people and it all gets recorded on video? Which do you think would last for longer in the public's eye?

Doing a crime is much easier than doing something right.

People are also more likley to noticed your crime than your act of generosity.

But it has to be unique.

I was thinking it would be easier too. So what kind of scale do you think this would have to be? Kill every world leader at once? Nuke someplace? Because I don't know the names of any bank robbers or serial killers, but I sure as hell know names like Lee Harvey Oswald.

I doubt killing all world leaders is achievable

Im not sure what you can personally achieve?

I'm smart, rather clever actually. And when it comes to this, well, I'm very driven to being remembered. I don't believe in religion, never feel much guilt about anything, have urges to do horrible things all the time and am desperate to not be forgotten when I die and totally cease to exist. I have formal training with things like the security of buildings and computers systems and also know how to handle explosives and all things like that. If the FBI is reading this, don't find me and knock down my door, this is all just hypothetical as someone could come along and suggest a way to be remember for good.

Since you say your proficient with explosive then please blow up every mosque in the US. I know I would remember you, I would even petition to have you recognized as a saint. I swear by that.

Wow that would really get you remembered
Do you know how to set up explosives and detonate them remotely?

Hell yes, do it OP. You would be loved by half of everyone, and hated by the other half. Best of both worlds!

Hell yes I can remotely detonate explosives. I like to rig them to the vibrate motor on mobile phones and then call them or send them an SMS to detonate the explosive. You can set most phones these days to like, only vibrate if a certain contact calls and not for when telemarketers and shit randomly dial your number (or however they keep getting my secret numbers). I suppose I could try and do something against a religion, but I'd rather take out Scientology… maybe both? I would have to ensure that I get enough coverage, and that my name gets spread far enough. Perhaps make a video documentary of the whole thing and put that on the net when it's done? How could I get maximum news time, keep them talking about me the longest?

I don't suggest you do it
But Scientology means nothing…only on the internet is it big.
Islam on the other hand is very hot
Christianity is hot…but only in terms of pedophile priests

It is eerily strange how so many posts on this website resemble my own thought patterns.

Oh? Do you never want to be forgotten either?

Yes. I think doing something really dramatic would be a much easier way of achieving fame (or infamy) than working or studying for a number of years.

Someone who i consider to have lived an accomplished life:

Look at his Bio section.

Killing the president of the usa is going to get you into pretty much every history book in the country. It's just kinda hard to pull off and if McCain gets elected, everybody will assume he dropped dead of old age anyway.

Great actor.
Unless, OP, you suddenly gain incredible acting/singing skills, don't follow Stewart's lead.
You could always…Write a book? A really popular book?
