Oh, sorry guys. I forgot this part of the talk on insane characters:

The only time insanity can work for a character is when it's kept within safe bounds—minor eccentricities that can even be rather charming. And even then, an insane character is almost never viable as the main character in the story. The audience is rarely comfortable enough with insane characters to want to spend any length of time with them.

Although it's okay to want to use them for sex, I guess, Orson*.
