Virtue is What?!
Superego: "Virtue is its own reward."
Id: I take great pleasure in looking back on the origin of our word "virtue," namely, directly in its present form, from Middle English, which borrowed from Old French vertu, which came from Latin virtus, "valor, merit, moral perfection," and all these wonderful attributes come down to us from the Latin word vir, which means "man," meaning that true virtue can be only masculine, but such masculinity can be had with ease for men, for men have it with ease, by definition.
Ego: "Might I address what, in principle, our reality is?"

The Ego is really starting to bug me.
Yeah, me, too, so it seems to be working.

Too much reality.
Hmm. What if, rather than the "monster from the Id", the film Forbidden Planet instead featured the "Monster from the Ego"?
Wasn't that the theme of the second Guardians of the Galaxy movie?
