Poll question: Are You An Acquired Taste?
Edited on Mon Nov-22-04 02:46 PM by Placebo
I am. :9

What I mean by that is basically, I know I'll never win any popularity contests, or be a member beloved by all, but nevertheless I maintain a healthy (but small) number of highly devoted, zealous supporters and friends here on the DU and elsewhere. And most of the time I remain relatively under the radar.

1. I am
I don't fit many of the mainstream "types", I have an offbeat sense of humor which most people don't seem to get and I'll admit I'm not always the easiest person to get along with (or put up with). But I have a small group of very tight friends who would do about anything for me (and I for them) and my boss likes me which is a plus. :silly:

3. Nobody gets used to me
They just yell and throw a fit every time I show up. They honestly wonder why I have nothing good to say. :shrug:

4. I don't think you are an aquired taste - I liked you from the
beginning! OF course, you would look really hot in a nice pair of creepers, but there is still time for that!

:hi:

6. Oh my yes
I have to know someone pretty well before I'll open up to them. Most people just aren't willing to wait that long. :( Not that I blame them.

You know not being able to admit a mistake is the first sign of madness, they say.

14. I don't know why per say but
its probably do the fact I am mostly always tired, plus the fact my caffine rush from that coke is rubbing off, then again i got a sore knee and hip, don't know what the fuck I did to them.

17. its not that
I seldom have breakfast, had it today though, never have lunch on weekdays because i use it to read, and genearlly get a piece of pizza and drink in the foyah if I got the money, have a snack or something when I get home, dinner, and then I have snacks after that. I think its probably just natural, I'll be fine but I also have a lot on my back too.
