I find most people who purposely try to be awkward to be an intense tunnel of time-wasting shit. Personally, I gather that if you are unhappy with some aspects of things in general, your're working towards some change of sort. If that's not the case, you can fuck off, regardless of your reasons for being awkward. I can be very dismissive like that.

Are you talking to me? I'm never purposefully awkward. I didn't say I was.

nothing worse than when someone quotes your post before you have time to delete it.

One idea: Watch some Cary Grant movies, emulate.

Now that's what I call a life lesson.

In this situation it was semi facetious, but I do love that quote. I do think it's definitely true for many people. The great souls are often the ones who take the longest to achieve what they can achieve. Einstein was apparently not the best of school students. I apply it to myself because the messy path and setbacks I've had and mistakes I've made over the last five years or so whilst knowing my potential.

I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. But is an example from human society of what you're talking radical feminism in that if the world was how they wanted it it would be horrible but they were useful in bringing about a moderate feminism, an equality?

Hey! Maybe that's what led to the evolution of "repping" (aaaand, we've come full circle (and ["where's that goddam tilda?!"] ~scene~))
