I would like a Narrator. David Haytor, D.C. Douglas, Tobuscus. There would be more, but I am too sick to think right now. Woo food poisoning or stomach flu.

That actually sounds like a pretty cool deal. I can work with it.

Wait, how would it respond to studying? Or sex? ...maybe I don't want it

Must have been said a thousand times now, but I'd only accept if it were Morgan Freeman narrating my life.

I'd really like it but only if it was more like a television show narration, only comes in when needed and not constantly narrating everything. I don't mind it pointing out stupid shit I'm doing, in fact that would really help me realize if I'm fucking up. Not totally sure who I'd want to narrate me, I need time to think but if I had to choose right now I'd probably go with Bruce Campbell.

How many people could stand the dulcet tones of Alan Rickman narrating: "And in a fit of lust he furiously masturbated to morally questionable material."

If I could have an iPod-like device that switches narrators when I get bored, and they keep their damn opinions to themselves, yeah, I'd go for it. Also, they can stay out my bedroom too. I don't want to have to deal with:

". . . And yet again he lay back, panting and sweating, after completely failing to satisfy his partner, who had been idly wondering what to get for dinner for the past two and a half minutes . . ."

On a constant basis, thank you very much.

Yeah. I'd probably never be able to masturbate again, but on the whole it'd probably be worth it. Insight into what genre I might be in, plus other kinds of hints the narration might provide, would be very helpful.

The really difficult part would be deciding whose voice the narrator has. Or maybe it changes from day to day, yeah that would be awesome (Stephen Fry, then Morgan Freeman, then GlaDOS, then BRIAN BLESSED, etc).

First thing that comes to mind is the movie "Stranger than Fiction", wich is pretty good and should be required watching whenever you think about what hearing your life narrated (as well as being stuck in genre conventions without being sure wich genre you're in) would be like
That's what I thought of as well. I was so surprised. Like..."What is this? Will Ferrell? Acting?"

I would love for Pepper Brooks (the guy Jason Bateman played in Dodgeball) to narrate my life, his comparisons and metaphors would be amazing!!!

Patrick Stewart, Alan Rickman, Morgan Freeman would be the choices of the top of my head. Oh, Brent Spiner would make a nice narrator.

The problem would be with how far it goes:

"Through shame and self loathing Mike was both enjoying and suffering through a furious wank, cursing the fact he was born a man and offloading sexual tension is a necessity."

I kinda do this already, but it would be nice if I could actually hear it.

I would also like Stephen Fry to do it, not just because he's an awesome narrator, but because I think when sexi tiems rolls around he would narrate it like it was an amateur porn novel written by Douglas Adams.

Either that or the narrator from the Skyrim teaser, just so I could feel awesome all the time.

Nope.

I say this because really give some thought about a voice narrating every part of your life. EVERY. PART.

This would include the stuff you don't necessarily give much thought like how you randomly started prancing around to music in your underwear. Clipped your toenails. Picked your nose. It would comment on that. How odd and awkward.

And then there's the private stuff. This thing will narrate your personal life. How you kissed your boyfriend. When you get in a fight with your girl. Masturbation. Sex. You want a narrator in your heard describing you having sex and commenting about it willy nilly?

Maybe if you're lucky enough, you get the one who is demure and fades out saying something only like, "and so and so made love." Or you can get the graphic one? Who will be all: "David shoved Lila right into the wall... he was so excited, he hoped he wouldn't be a one minute man, Dave thought to himself."

Just imagine how that'd sound. Plus everyone says the love scenes in the media are not real life so the narrator would bring up the embarrassing parts too. Falling off the bed, getting sand in parts and getting rashes.

But really, I wonder how many people could concentrate having all their actions described with everything they do.

I'm thinking Raphael Sbarge, but it'd be really weird having anyone narrate your life.

Soren awakens, head still groggy from a fitful night's sleep. As per usual, she attempts to return to her slumber.
"Damn right."
she says, and she regathers the blankets and returns to their warm embrace.
"Uhh.. who's there?"
--
She wondered how her bowls would handle her late lunch, hoping that a trip to the restroom would not be required.
"No one needs to know that!
--
Feeling amorous, Soren wondered where her boyfriend was.
"Shut up! No I don't!"
she denied, not wanting people to know the details of her personal life.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
she screamed, anger flaring as-
"AGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!"

Either H jon Benjamin narrating my life in a broken fourth wall style, throwing in his own experiences and stuff tangentially related to me or have Slowbeef and Diabetus riff on my entire life nonstop.

Alec Baldwin Narrating my life would be epic...but annoying once the novelty wore off
