That doesn't inspire me! Thank you for the info though.

Unless there is a comic/anime somewhere, I'm not sure where I'd even get a feel for his appearance, so I'm assuming you are speaking metaphorically. But that's the problem, because I get to hear his thoughts, and they are fairly repulsive. Like I said, I get the frustration with other people not pulling their weight, because that's pretty much every day at work for me, but no one else can hear my thoughts, and if I wrote them down I would imagine most people would consider me to be an asshole. Even if I'm right.

I will keep going because so many people seem to love it, but I've given up on multiple series because of this exact reason. Maybe it is just me. There is a series called We Fight Monsters (not to be confused with the much more popular and better HWFWM) where the mc is tasked with killing the mega-monsters on this world so he can go back home to Earth and his family. He's tried countless times to "win condition" other worlds and this is his last chance. He's literally spent lifetimes doing it. So now on his last chance, he's all about damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead, to the point where he constantly has to tell all the women that lust after him that he ain't got time for that (despite countless lifetimes actually getting married and shit), and he doesn't want to take time to solidify his strength in the world after each boss kill, which would make a whole lot more sense than rushing onto the next one and getting tons of people killed (think WoW raids but with hundreds), all because suddenly he can't wait an extra couple of years?? If it were my last shot, I'd be a LOT more careful than all of my other ones, but perhaps I'm just retarded.

Hell, maybe it is just me, and you guys would love that series too.

His appearance is pretty standardized on the book covers

I don't mind this aspect of his personality at all. It's pretty clear he's been through some trauma and using it as a coping mechanism. You find out more about his history as the books go on and it explains a lot.
