During the conception of Shaq, our creator skipped the id and just gave Big Aristotle an extra super-ego. This manifests itself in various ways: he generally holds that he is his own boss, he decides to use humans instead of barbells on a whim, and he tries to pull off feats other NBA players can't match.
