Where does resenting they never did anything to build character come under this?

Yeah, that's covered.

If you never do any of the so called character building things - do you end up with no character?

Yeah - spineless, drifting and unaccomplished.

If you want to play language games then that's a character of its own yes, but remember that 'cold' is a level of heat.

No. It's cliched.

Shallow is also a kind of deep Nick...

Err yeah. Or are you calling me shallow in a cunning way?

Yes. But hating yourself isn't.

On the contrary, it's the Greatest Hate of Allllllll...

I don't know what I think about self-loathing building character. It think it could go either way.
