Say i'm a pointer; a promiscuous one at that. And I have a girlfriend who's
a constant pain in the ass but I want to change her. I also have another
girlfriend who's constant but always changing and I want to make her
static. How would I do this?

Examples via code please.

I see that your instructor hasn't followed the university sensitivity
guidelines.

You can use const_cast to change your pointer. Beware though, going
through a core dump can be a painful experience.

I'd say your problem is that you're only a pointer... even if you did
point to a girl, all you'd do is direct others to that girl... If I
were you, I'd define myself as a class with a pointer to another
(female) class, both derived from the same parent classes. that way,
you both are full human beings, and you are more than just a way to
contact the girl for others...

Youre right, can I be a singleton as well? This infinite universe thing is
giving me an identity crisis.

You can be anything you wanna be. As long as you have the right

I think there is a contradiction in that statement. Or maybe not. Is
God plural (EnglishMEN)? I heard "We are the State" before. I heard,
"We, the Emperor" before. I never heard "I'm an Englishmen"...

Vic, me old mucker, I think you'll find there's provision for 'Englishman'
or 'Englishmen' in the C++ standard, therefore will you please take your OT
babble to alt.english.usage where it may or may not be found to be
interesting - I'm betting on the latter.

I've heard a rumor that a certain Queen once uttered:
"We are not amused." Perhaps she was simply a schizophrenic,
or maybe there's some property of the English folk of which
I'm unaware.

Hmm, was Alice (of "Looking Glass" fame) an Englishwoman?
That might explain this issue of 'self-image'.

But C++ doesn't have 'reflection', so I guess I'm OT now.

How long will it take for you to actually write well-formed C++ code?

Ah, who cares, to the killfile you go...

God's never claimed to be fair - in fact, I'm not sure if He's ever claimed
anything.

Ah, that's known as the "Royal \"we\"". Former PM Margeret Thatcher used to
slip into this usage on occasion... for which she was roundly condemmed as
getting ideas above her station/putting on airs and graces, etc. Rum lot,
the English.

Anyway, correct application would be: "Like God, we're an Englishman".

I'm sorry, the question was so bloody idiotic that I didn't for one moment
think you wanted a straight answer.

If you'd like to explain why you think I'd have any idea of what life's
like in Guantanamo or how God feels about his fellow Englishmen, we might
be able to get to the crux of your muddled thinking.
