    What do you think is the worst thing about you?

    Hahahaha got to see how many replies this one gets ?


    The worst thing about me is people i nkow always want to tell me their troubles and i don't know what to say!

    Also i get fed up of folk complaining about "how their hard their lives are" when there are folk starving to death in the world.

    There's lots more but i can't think of them just now i'll be back with more later

    When I am drunk I talk FAR to much.
    I don't like my body so that, but I am taking steps to rectify that.

    Most things that I don't like about myself can be changed, it would take some effort, but it can be done. (e.g. social anxiety, confidence issues so on)
    Things I can't change I don't really pay much attention too, I got some stretchmarks from the weight gain while I was on steroids and though I find it annoying because it is quite large (in width) and red, I know in time it will fade to a silvery colour (have stretch marks around my arms and legs from growing as a kid and they're barely noticable now) I can't really change it so why dislike it, same with crohns, I don't particularly like having it but it cannot be changed so why should I hate that I have it? just deal and move on.

    I'm a first-class snob.

    Well, when people are not asking me for opinions, I'm usually a pretty nice guy.

    I read this and found it hard to connect the statement with the photo of the good looking guy?

    However i have no reason to disbelieve anything that was stated and i have nothing admiration for your attitude.

    Life is cruel and cold sometimes and no matter what comfort is offered or given it does not change the truth that we have to live with. In todays shallow world of good looks being confident and outgoing and good looking is a must!!

    Hats off to you young man and i,m sure with the attitude you display here you will go far in life and be happy.

    I am paranoid and I overreact.
    “And now I’m looking at you,” he said, “and you’re asking me if I still want you, as if I could stop loving you. As if I would want to give up the thing that makes me stronger than anything else ever has. I never dared give much of myself to anyone before – bits of myself to the Lightwoods, to Isabelle and Alec, but it took years to do it – but, Clary, since the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you completely. I still do. If you want me.” ― City of Glass by Cassandra Clare.

    I can't control the power. It comes in flashes and bursts, sometimes at the exact moment I DON'T want it, and can't call it up reliably when I need it. Aunt Ida won't let me come to anymore barbecues because of what happened at the last one, with the bandstand catching on fire. I get angry at people saying wrong things on the internet; that can cause a surge. I've melted six keyboards in the last three months. I can't put in anymore work requisitions; I've paid for the last two out of pocket.

    And the mind-reading. Who wants to be able to read people's minds? Why did I ever think that would be something useful??? WHY did I have to take that genie up on its offer??!! WHY???!!!!

    Finishing other people's sentences. I speak incredibly quickly, so when I'm having a conversation with someone who isn't going at the same pace I find it awfully difficult to concentrate, to the point where I get a headache -- so, I hurry them along a bit. To be fair, I only do it with people who take ten minutes to tell a story about going to the shop. I try my hardest not to do it, but it's no use.

    Speaking my mind. If I know someone's lying, I'll say so; if I don't like the way someone's behaving, I'll mention it; if a builder uses our toilet without asking, I'll bring it to light. Another very bad social habit I've picked up, but another I just can't shake off .

    I'm quite pedantic as well. If someone says something like: "Yeah, I love chimpanzees; most intelligent monkey on Earth you know", I'll say "They're apes, not monkeys." Is it so important that I mention that? Why do I do it? WHY!

    I like to believe it's because I think facts are really important, but who knows.

    LOL! Funny stuff ... loved every bit of it!

    The worst thing about me is my tendency to explode with rage at all kinds of stupidity. No matter how old I get, I'm still surprised at some of the really stupid things people (including those in government) say and do, especially when someone gets hurt, even more so when it affects my life. Sometimes I just have to take a break from watching the news because I get so angry that I'm afraid I'll smash something ... or even have a stroke. My husband can somehow deal with it all more calmly, but he doesn't have my too-short fuse. I envy his self-control.

    Thank you, I suppose that in part the body thing comes down to confidence issues. I don't think I am particularly attractive at all, though I wouldn't go as far as to call myself ugly (Mainly because of what a freind told me once when I told her I didn't like how I looked (there's nothing wrong with you, like you're not bad looking or anything) and the frankness which that was said always makes me smile when I think of it. I don't realy understand why or how someone could find me attractive. I don't say that in a negative way though more as a statement of fact, I don't feel bad about it or worry about it generally. I am sure that my opinion of how I look will change in time as I get older and gain confidence.

    I suppose the easiest way to describe it is that though people have found me attractive and have told me so, I just don't really get it/see it. It would be the same as someone saying that you're hideously ugly and you just don't make the connection with that statement with what you see in the mirror.

    Haha, well done. This is one of mine, too.

    I also take on too many hobbies, and I get annoyed that I don't have enough time to do all of them.

    Haha, I can be like that too, sometimes. Today in class we were talking about Raymond Carver's "Popular Mechanics" and this girl was like, "That reminds me of that one story, Pink Elephants." So of course I had to respond with, "I think you mean Hills With White Elephants." Lol, not exactly the same as the apes vs. monkeys thing, but I have a tendency to be a know-it-all sometimes too.

    I also procrastinate, especially when I have to do homework on the computer. I always end up messing around on the internet.

    Sometimes I'm too shy, but I'm growing out of it.
