Thanks for the nice compliment. Though usually women think they are perfect just because they are women. I myself am an alien, but I must admit I am not that perfect either.

This happens to be a serious riddle people. And not so serious. See what I mean?

It's called an error-correcting code. Or maybe at a casting: - What makes you qualify for the role? - My imperfections. - What role are you talking about? - The Hunchback of Notre-Dame - That's right, you are perfect!

You riddlers baffle me. Perhaps the intended answer is a bit silly.

Without imperfection there is no perfection. Perfection - although it seems like an absolute term - is actually a relative term; without imperfection to compare it to, it cannot exist.

As in, without the darkness, how would we recognize the light? I had something else in mind, something not deep at all.

I feel Modus Ponens coming up: P = if I am not mistaken Q = imperfection is obtainable from perfection I claim that P => Q If I am mistaken then the above is false and the rest follows from here ... therefore I am not mistaken and imperfection is obtainable from perfection.

Enough with boxes. I already have a cat. However, the intended answer for a riddle regarding the link you provided could certainly put you on the right track.

Something like that. You just planted the seed of doubt regarding validity of my riddle. Thanks a lot, buddy.

Don't worry: if you tell us the answer to this riddle then we will be able to validate its validity.

Hey that sounds like a dare. Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it. And by my beard you will get it. I'm not a Dwarf though. Ahem. Eraser conveys the intended answer. Unless you are a Moron. Just like me. For your information, Sauron had to send Smaug and three legions of Orcs to get rid of me.

Origami may be paired up with "design".
