Because I can

Now, those who say they are not into **** stirring are just a bunch of liars (come on, obvious much?). Like GD said originally - No.

I have to disagree. I think at least some people really aren't into stirring ****. I almost never am, unless it's someone I really can't stand, then my childish side takes over. I do admit to enjoying watching others fight on occasion, though. Childish again. Like GD said though, I'd rather not fight most days, but if someone throws something my way I'm usually more than happy to throw back. Even more childish, I know.

I try really hard not to call people on their BS, even if it's really obvious, because I haven't ever encountered anyone that wasn't at least a little full of it. Those that do make a point to call out others usually end up looking like asses because their own BS shows through. We're all so imperfect that we're better off trying to improve ourselves more and make ourselves look better less.

When I was really involved in dance years ago my mean side really had a chance to shine (dance will bring that out in people, especially teaching/choreographing). I quickly decided that that side needed to be locked away most of the time. I've had enough **** stirring from myself and others that I stay as far from it as possible now.

I do enjoy being contrary in a less vindictive way. I take evil pleasure in knowing the quirks of those I'm closest too and playing off them. The real reason we aren't telling anyone the baby's name is just because it drives my family crazy. If it didn't bother them, I probably wouldn't bother doing it.

As I'm posting this though, I'm really hoping that this thread doesn't have anything to do with whatever soap opera-ish stuff that goes on offline that I don't usually have a clue about. If it does, then consider me clueless. My post is just about general contrary-ness.

Nope. We've decided there is a Mischief Virus going around, and we are all just feeling it's effects. We're just being playful, people! Chill and get silly with us, or ignore us.

I didn't "request" contrary. I was just being honest about it.

So then I guess I want to be contrary about the attitude "I'm going to be contrary and you'll have to deal with it"?

Well, it's sort of like masterbation and men. 95% say they do it and the other 5% are liers.

[Ghoulish Delight]

[Not Afraid]

Well, Let's leave YOU out of the convo here.
