I hate it when people cannot live vicariously.

I don't think you should live vicariously (through others) - you think they should? Or am I not understanding...?

In extremely rare instances, is there another way?

I dunno, I mean, I don't feel like my kids successes are my successes?
They are their own people, I'm proud of them but I don't wish them to live my dreams.... that's what I think of when you say live vicariously.....

I mean, I always wanted to learn to play the drums, but, I have no desire for my sons to play the drums.
*I* want to play drums!

If you follow the context of the thread, you will see it was directed at very specific ideas and not to life in general.

Isn't that kind of like using a picture of some other random person off the internet to use as your avatar?

While I am watching a great music video, my computer freezes up, and the volume starts buzzing loudly. I hate that.
