Would you rather stand out, or blend in? (1 Viewer)

[MingX]

Just asking.

Because I myself know that if I try to blend in with the crowd, I'll feel like a round peg in a square hole!

I never do things like any other person, and lots of people have called me weird, but I always do things my way.

And I make less-than-stellar impressions on my intellect. What can I say? I hate politics, geography, history and general knowledge. I'd rather focus on inter-personal skills.

A lot of friends have been embarrassed by my openness sometimes. I mean for example, I went to visit Macquarie Uni, and I couldn't find the toilet. So I asked a student. My friends thought I was some kind of weirdo or something. In truth, I was just desperate to take a leak...I'm not really that afraid to voice my opinion.

So stand out, or blend in?

You know why you make 'less-than-stellar' impressions? You are hell-bent on being different.

You're not that different.

 

[mellie.c]

Stand out!

 

[Phoenix Fury]

Blend in.

If there are no dark corners, I will make one.

 

[scaredytiger]

Such a juvenile mentality. Like really.

That's nice to hear. Sometimes I'd rather think I'm not a weirdo.

No you wouldn't. You just want to be noticed. You are no less stereotypical than anybody else.

Haha, I guess everyone has their own faults then !

(Though really, I was thinking of this issue more as are you an 'extrovert' or 'introvert' question. The idea of 'grabbing attention' wasn't really on my mind.)

 

[scaredytiger]

You're a bit of a tool, huh.

[SilverSakura]

Be yourself.

I'm being myself! I'm very curious about human nature...

But sometimes, when the things around you just seem so impossibly...blinding that you can't stumble your way through.

Not that easy to be 'yourself', when you construct yourself through interactions with other people.

It's all contradictory. Life that is.

 

[scaredytiger]

And so begins the circle-jerk of false profundity.

Changing yourself for someone is stooopid, you're gonna lose yourself.


But being yourself is a challenge! And life is full of challenges.

Allow for the challenge to commence.

 

[Misyndo]

Yeah, you sure are a special little snowflake just like mommy told you huh?

Lol attentionwhore.

I've already done it!

You don't happen to be thinking that I'm depressed or anything right?

I've already started to embrace my homosexuality, etc, etc.
