Roper works as a driller on the oil rig, shown in Still Wakes the Deep. He looks like a slightly less attractive version of Johnny Depp, who has gained some weight. Roper is a pretty straightforward guy like Oscar Martinez from The Office, who is a proper gentleman, and someone who can’t do any wrong whatsoever. After analyzing Roper’s demeanor, we have come up with 5 signs that will tell you whether your personality is similar to Roper’s or not.
Signs That You’re Like Roper from Still Wakes the Deep
1. Rules aren’t meant to be broken
You are an “I go by the rulebook” kinda guy, and you find the “I am just gonna wing it” kinda people amusing – you wish you were as brave as them. From hanging out with friends to brushing your teeth in the morning, everything’s planned and has a certain time duration allotted to it which you can’t exceed. Your wife/girlfriend is well informed about your current location, plan for the day and available hangout time. If it was up to you, you would magically apparate at appointments, workplaces and meetings to save your precious time. You are like the typical dad who sighs in disappointment after seeing his children oversleep on Sundays.
The superfast running ability of Flash would be your choice of fictional superpower – you’re that paranoid about time. Roper would love that ability, for sure.
2. You come across as anxious at times
You cannot function in a social setting if you are behind on work schedules or if your performance evaluation report at the company was anything less than spectacular. You don’t take pauses while speaking, so you come across as anxious or nervous in social gatherings. People don’t understand that you’re trying to address everyone – they think you are too nice. Just like Roper, you too have a serious face that reeks of authority – you always look like you’re plotting a world domination plan in your head. Friends ask you to loosen up in social situations, they often say “Not everything is your responsibility, bro.”
Even the beverage that you’re about to consume, feels bad for you when it sees you acting uptight and anxious.
3. You are a competent workhorse
You look down upon colleagues who keep on asking silly doubts, that could be easily looked up on the internet. Incompetence and easily giving up, are the only 2 things that annoy you – you look at them, like how Norman Osborn looked at Harry. Whenever your junior colleagues succeed without your help, you feel like quoting Norman Osborn’s dialogue at Harry’s graduation, i.e., “It’s not the first time that I have been proven wrong, congratulations.” – you look at them like a proud dad. You take work on your ego and attach it to your masculine pride somehow – your heartbeat doesn’t get back to normal until the issue has been resolved by you.
You always overdeliver and then wonder “Why do people think that I don’t have a life?”.
4. You humor is quite dry & unique
Your sense of humor is quite bizarre, it’s not “laugh out loud” kind of funny, but it’s okay – you describe your joke while delivering it, which makes it less funny. You are a nice guy to talk to, but humor is probably not your strong suit – your serious vocal tone doesn’t do justice to your attempts at humor. You are the king of “dad jokes” among your friends. Your personality is like the strong alpha male, just like Jackie Chan’s character from the 2010 Karate Kid movie – your exterior looks like Marlon Brando from The Godfather, but from inside, you’re like Kevin Hart, i.e., full of life and finding humor in day-to-day life.
5. You are the good samaritan of your office
You have paternal instincts for your friends and colleagues – you give off an elder brother vibe to people, like someone who cares about people. Just like Roper, you are constantly worried about people – you behave like a dad who is nervous about his son’s first stage performance and cheers him silently from the crowd. You are extremely supportive of your colleagues – it’s similar to how a girl gang treats their friend who just got cheated on.
