"The two most powerful forces on earth--fear and control--and anyone can use them..."

So, what does it say about me when Dr. Crane and Dr. Lecter are directly responsible for me considering psychiatry as a profession?

I know deep down the job would be nowhere near as glamorous and exciting as they make it, but I still like the idea of invoking psychology and peoples' innermost fears for my personal amusement.

I would get none patients and would revert to plan B of Being an Evil Overlord, but the police reports would still call me "Dr. Cook", and that's nifty.

I considered taking some kind of doctorate just so I would be alliterative. Doctor Dove. But then I would want to change my first name to something equally alliterative; I favour Diana or Davina.
It's like how I wish David Duchovny would go back to college (since he sure isn't WORKING much these days and I'm sure he could do it part-time around looking after the kids), get those last two or three credits and be Dr David Duchovny.
I don't want to be a bad wicked doctor who messes with people's heads, though. I'd tidy up their heads, like J.M. Barrie says mothers do for their sleeping children in Peter Pan & Wendy.

When it comes right down to it, I wouldn't either. I'd go too far in the opposite direction and worry myself over other peoples' problems.

I need to actually read Peter Pan.

Oh, for god's sake, PLEASE don't become a psychiatrist. You'd do the world more good as an Evil Overlord. -gets excited- and, and we could all be henchman and have Storm Trooper uniforms and each carry one, only one, part of your secret plans around because that way, the hero NEVER gets all of them.

You are zilch fun. Who says I can't do both.

I will gladly take henchmen, though, and I'm as sure as hell not writing That Key Secret to my Plan down anywhere but mine head.
