This is a question Turning into your parents

Unable to hold back the genetic tide, I find myself gardening in my carpet slippers, asking for a knife and fork in McDonalds and agreeing with the Daily Telegraph. I'm beyond help - what about you?

Thanks to b3th for the suggestion

Here Goes
(Apologies for length in advance)

I was thinking of keeping a bit of a distance from QOTW this week as it could affect me but after reading a few replies so far I thought this may be therapeutic.

I was an only child and after a few years of my life my mum and dad left me to live with another couple. As I was young I forgot about the whole incident and actually grew up believing the people I was with were my real parents. To make this tale short the couple who I believed were my parents) separated, my adopted mum died (Which is something I actually blame myself for this very day).

Anywhoo I found out about my real parents and resolved to meet them, confronting my adoptive dad to find the information. I swear I could have killed him then but for some reason I simply got the address info and went to meet my real dad.

During the journey I found out that my real mum had died thanks to my (real) fathers actions and I was cut up. I turned up at his place with the sight of mind that I wanted to kill the old fucker (When I see it in writing I realise that I have a lot of anger issues). Instead I found an old bloke who was riddled with cancer and to some extent wanted to die. My whole world seemed to fall apart and instead of kicking his ass I spent some time bonding with the guy.

During this time I learned that he was my dad, complete with genetic flaws like mine, he forgot about the time where I left his life and also the exact reason as to why my mother died. He found out a little about me and then explained that we were both quite alike and would always punch below our weight when it came to our lives and career aspects. This saying made me realise that I needed to re-adress my life.

I am afraid to say that the peaceful scene didn’t last as he found out that I had something that could help him and the old twat attacked me. I don’t want to go into any further details about the scuffle but I will say that I could have killed him but left him to die alone with his cancer.

I then went off and attempted to become the President of the US by stealing his DNA and taking his appearance.

Love

Gabriel ‘Sylar’ Gray

Meh
Skywalker has been done a few times already this week (Including one by me yesterday).

Thought it would be better to do someone else for once but wasn't too sure if many people had seen the new series

Ooh I've just seen the final episode...

Very good indeed.

I'm twitching for the next series now.

I agree with you on that one
A few people have bitched about it but I thought it was one of the better series of heroes (The second series was dire)
