A copy of a copy?  Both copies made by the same machine?

Nothing in this world IRL is perfect, hence why "reality" is also on the list.
In the digital realms there are actually many perfect things, mainly mathematical or artistic entities.
For example, math formulas are generally perfect, and on occasion you come across complex things that still manage to be perfect, such as the game Cave Story. (seriously, can you find something that is OBJECTIVELY a flaw in that game?) Pixel art is also reasonably possible to get 100% perfect (which is not to say it's better than other art, just that it's much easier to reach technical perfection).

I thrive on imperfection. Perfection is the bane of my existence.

My entire purpose is to absorb more knowledge, more experiences, to say that I am more than I was. To improve myself indefinitely. For me to have peace, perfection should be unattainable. It is not a goal, but a direction.

Perfection is like the speed of light, no matter how fast you go, it'll be out of reach. And the closer you get, the harder it is to move faster.

Ah, but note that I did not write "perfection" anywhere on my list, only imperfection. The paradox you notice is there, yes. in many areas, such as the knowledge you mention, perfection is unattainable. In others, such as art, it is a goal hard to reach and subjective. In still others, such as certain disciplines of mathematics, it is inescapable.
Our goals do actually seem similar; I wish to attain all information, you wish to attain all knowledge and skill. To attain all information, you need all knowledge and skill, to attain all knowledge and skill, you need all information.
If I did indeed archive the perfection of information i so strive for, I do not know what I would do, but as that event if at all relevant lies gogolplexes of millennia in the future, thinking about it would be futile.

Hmm.. Someone similar to me.
My whole point of existence is to gain knowledge, I don't concern myself much with trivial things like getting a girlfriend(Which, ironically enough, would be easy enough for me considering the amount of girls interested in me), partying with my friends, or any pointless thing.

But those experiences can bear knowledge. First-hand experience can teach you things that no book or website can.

Of course, I'm not interested in any girls right now. I need someone who can stimulate me mentally.

So you're a soda jerk, then? That reminds me, I have the high score on 'Root Beer Tapper' at the local arcade.

Ok it's official. The list of "perfect things" is quite small!  ;D

1)Me
2)People who worship me
3)Everything I say
4)My stuff
5)Did I mentioned that my personality is included in point 1?

1)Those who don't like me
2)Those who don't acknowledge I'm their superior
3)Those who beg to differ with me.
4)People who don't inmediatly recognize my beauty and smarts.
5)Things I'm not interested in learning because they are dumb (and I'm not, I didn't care about them... otherwise I would master them... obviously... for real! Ok... You)
6)Rules that try to bound me (Like requests of just 5 things...)

Top5, although I have about 10 things I'd like to cram in here...

1. Music
2. Videogames
3. Art/Drawing
4. Reading
5. Cartoons/Webcomics

And my hate-Top5:

5. Trying to teach a morale in a cartoon too hard (also known as anvilicious aesops)
4. Annoying music (bad rap/hip-hop, loud stuff)
3. People who think they're superior
2. Getting interrupted
1. Any sort of work
