Characters
Walt
I can't see myself in Walt too much, but I can sort of identify with his cynical outlook. He is most certainly a stereotypical grumpy old man. I don't think he ever appears as an object, but he is definitely the subject most of the time.
Thao
I can't see myself in Thao, either, besides the fact that he is a young male. Thao is definitely not a stereotype, he is just a nice, reserved, meek kid. Thao is mostly a subject, although in a way he does function as the object or catalyst for the changes that Walt undergoes.
Sue
I can't see myself in Sue, although I can identify with her outspoken nature. She does not seem to be a stereotype, nor is she really an object or a subject.
I think Thao is probably the furthest from myself. We are both straight males, but he is Hmong, lives with his mother, sister, and grandmother, and he has no job until he begins working for Walt. He is very quiet and meek, and it seems that a future of crime is unavoidable with his older cousin's gang constantly trying to recruit him.
