I smoke (cigarettes) and drink too much

and I tend to piss off my neighbors by playing guitar too loudly at odd times

You sound just about perfect!

Oooooh! Will you come down to Colorado and weed my yard? It's a postage stamp, but I never seem to get around to weeding it - another annoying trait of mine!

I'm more intelligent than everyone else.

I'm smarter than everyone else.

I'm always right.

For some reason people find these things annoying instead of worshipping me as they should.

I don't leave an impression on people; I leave a dent. (According to others!)
I express my opinions too forcefully, especially when it doesn't matter.
I'm rude, arrogant, charming, witty, and absolutely impossible to deal with.

I disagree.. I think I'm worshipping you exactly as I should.

I'm out of beer & WFT am I doing in this thread?

Please may I add that all too often I am bombastic?

I'd also like to piont out that this thread reminds me of a recent TV programme I saw (in the UK) called something like 'public opinion' (Catwoman, Zummerzet, help me out here). The chairman (Gyles Brandreth if you please) had a four word unpleasant description of an unnamed celebrity and four celebrities to play with. Each celebrity (the programme I saw featured Jimmy Saville and Daniella Westbrook, Craig Charles and one other) had to explain how each pejorative word could be applied to them. I was intrigued to notice how eager they were to own up to, for example, 'irresponsible' but baulked at confessing to being 'pretentious' (or something similar). I suppose this give rise to a new thread .... here.

1) When I drink too much, I get confrontational.
2) I talk too much, and usually forget the point of conversation because I go off on tangents. I also have a hard time just getting to the point because I put too many useless details in stories.
3) I question/argue everything (so my husband always tells me) and don't just do what I'm told <--tho I think this is also a good trait occasionally
4) because I don't communicate my feelings well, I sometimes get very angry at stupid things because it's really something else that is bothering me.

I'm sure I'll think of more

I sometimes come off as a know-it-all...even when I *do* know it all.

Also, my self-deprecating humour sometimes gets misinterpreted.

ladysycamore · 10-14-2004, 11:10 AM

1) Somewhat of a control freak.
2) Too sensitive at times.
3) Did someone mention handwriting? Mine totally sucks.
4) A slow burn temper (but it's getting better!)
5) My own worse critic (damn my body image issues!)

More to come I'm sure...

1.) I often think I'm funny when it's only me that sees the humor in what is posted.

2.) When you least expect me to barge into the thread, I do.

3.) When you kinda want me to barge in, I don't.

You very well might be my neighbor. He somehow got it in his head that playing his guitar, complete with amp, or playing with his band after midnight isn't a problem for anyone else who lives around his apartment. He's not all that great a singer either? Can you sing?
