Re: "Poll" - the follow-up

Such is the power of statistics. Real life is inherently realistic; it doesn't have the burden of implausibility. Fiction has to be believable if you want people to enjoy it. Everything in fiction is there for a specific purpose, and real life doesn't work like that. Things just happen in life. That's not to say that this person is an impossible character, simply improbable.

Just as is real life; you're brother is very capable, but he is unlikely in that regard. Most people can't do all that, even without a disorder like ADD, even if it's mild like it sounds from your descriptions. It's alright to feel jealous of or frustrated with him - hell, I'm a bit jealous. Overachievers make those of us who are not feel jealous. As long as you don't start resenting him, a bit of jealousy doesn't make you mean or anything; it makes you normal.

And in terms of character, I wouldn't automatically hate the character. It all depends on presentation. There are plenty of 'Ace' type characters I like. They just have the right story behind them.
