Who is your "Person" (Lesson 27)? - eubankp - 2012-02-21
I used Bruce Wayne or Batman. It made for great stories.

When I first got started I chose this guy as my person:
Some random generic anime guy obsessed with Super Smash Bros. and all things otaku.
Then, after my second run through Heisig, and getting hooked to the new Friendship Is Magic show, I decided that my "person" would be Pinkie Pie:
Her utter randomness, 4th-wall breaking powers and evil alter-ego helped me create awesome stories with the "person" primitive. I regret nothing!!

I went with Johnny Bravo from the cartoon of the same name since I could easily imagine him getting caught up in all sorts of stuff, and also because it was one of my favourite cartoons when I was younger. It went pretty well.

I usually use the 13 y/o autistic boy i take care of. because he's autistic he does everything his own way so it's easy to come up with stories.
But i have a second person which is a guitar player friend of a friend who showed me around nagoya when i was lonely in nagoya for a couple days on a 2-week solo travel in tokyo, shizuoka, gifu, osaka, nagoya and kyoto.
and of course i use Mr. T sometimes when i need inspiration from other members' stories on the kanji.koohii site.

I use The Todd from "Scrubs". He's pretty easy to make amusing stories with.

It isn't difficult to see why so many use Mr T. Even if you aren't his biggest fan, you have to admit he's got a pretty big and outlandish personality that makes the kanji you associate with him really stand out.

I stuck with Mr T. I remember hearing that there are a lot of Mr T stories and the moment I read the advice to pick a particular person and the T shape of person, let us just say it was not a surprise to see all those Mr T stories in the deck.
His blackness does help for some of them.
He would have made "chief" if he was white. He has no "use" for "officers"
There are other ones that Mr T just works for,
However Mr T stops pitying the fool at evening break.
Mr T fell at the fiesta. In the A team shows IIRC they always drugged him when they needed him to board a plane.
Mr T is reliant on his garments [including his chains] to make an impression.

For me it is Arnold Schwarzenegger, with is variegated career (actor, activist, businessman, professional bodybuilder, politician, ...) gives all the flexibility I need.
I mainly focus on him as actor, but even there he made all kind of characters: the quiet and powerful Conan, the one-liner funny macho, a workaholic father, a serious professor, a naïve man of the country, and so go on.
To make it easier I usually call him in a mix of the role and his real name like: Hero A. Schwarzenegger, Conan A. Schwarzenegger, or even Arnold Buddha Schwarzenegger.

Mine is also Mr. T. I do still use Hito for 侍 though.

I used three persons, to give me some variety, and so that I could choose the most appropriate for each kanji.
1. Jimmy Stewart (plenty of movie roles to choose from)
2. Audrey Hepburn (also plenty of roles)
3. MacGyver (works with a lot of objects)

Mr. T. Fu*k. That means I'm old. (34 is old, right?)
If you've ever seen even so much as one episode of the A-team, that's the guy you wanna go with. His stories are the best.
