Ignatious is a very unique and annoying character, but he is also very funny. He seems to find something wrong in everyone and everything except himself. He is also a very selfish person. For example, Ignatious believes that his mother should be happy to take care of him. So, it was no surprise that he became upset when his mother started hanging out with Officer Mancuso and his aunt. Even though Ignatious is so out there, he reminds me of so many other men his age (including those in my family), who are so dependent on their mothers. I find that a good bit of men here in New Orleans, as well as many other places, have so many excuses not to go out and find jobs because they are afraid to be on their own. I don't really see the reasons behind his actions or his views, but hopefully I will find them before the end of this joy ride.
