I dunno. Maybe I watch too much TV where the main character, who is a hero and protects people, gets rewarded with something like recognition, or a special thanks from the town with a TV appearance, or a girl, just anything other than feeling like you're doing shit for no reason. [He scratches his head, a bit embarrassed.] That stuff probably doesn't happen in real life, though, unless you're a famous person... or have a sister.
