The way people go on about the "special little snowflake" thing

DonZabu · 2011-07-25 11:56:43

I swear, you guys are blowing the whole thing way out of proportion.

Malkavian · 2011-07-25 11:57:40

I AM SPECIAL DAMMIT!

OrangeSpider · 2011-07-25 12:24:45

Yes. Just like everybody.

The_Edge · 2011-07-25 12:27:02

I see myself as the main character of my life and people I don't know are extras.

Myrmidon · 2011-07-25 12:31:05

I blame Fight Club.

Malkavian · 2011-07-25 12:32:48

TELL ME I'm PRETTY MYRM!

Crimson · 2011-07-25 12:40:11

DonZabu · 2011-07-25 12:44:04

Yeah, the kawaii uguu~ thing is getting old too.

Myrmidon · 2011-07-25 12:44:36

Hatter · 2011-07-25 12:47:34

This is so sugoi.

I am sugoi.

Ponicalica · 2011-07-25 13:20:51

But are you as sugoi as this:

InsanityAddict · 2011-07-25 13:51:51

It's undergone the same decline in meaning 'poser' has. I only ever use it if person uses "that's just how I am" to excuse any and all annoying behaviour.

TheMightyAnonym · 2011-07-25 14:53:56

Am I sugoi? <3

Ponicalica · 2011-07-25 14:54:42

No.

DarkDecapodian · 2011-07-25 14:57:21

What's being blown out of proportion, the belief that one is special, or the condemnation of that belief?

DonZabu · 2011-07-25 15:05:09

^ The latter.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-07-25 15:06:03

I'd say both, really.

GLORIOUSLeader · 2011-07-25 16:29:06

Tell that to Fark.

No, really. Do it. It's fucking annoying.

inkblot · 2011-07-25 16:49:26

GLORIOUS: What's your opinion on hipsters, Apple and conservatives?

GLORIOUSLeader · 2011-07-25 16:54:45

I am a hipster (if listening to hipster-ish music counts)

I own an iPod touch and a Macbook.

Republicans are trying to destroy the country in order to further their political agenda.

I think it is great that people are unique since it means that people can specialize and because I personally just find it neat for some reason. That being said, I think it is important to point out that differences do not make one person inherently better than another. It bothers me a bit when people act superior because of the choices they have made or the talents they happen to have. At the very least, I would prefer them to keep that stuff to themselves.
