You don’t gotta get high on drugs to be comfortable with your own weird vibe.
Whoa, a fellow dingus! Hello!!
It helps though.
But you can if you want to
I was hoping so hard for a Swanson meme. I thank you from the bottom of my weird little heart. “Why get a ham radio license?” Argh. Because I want to achieve my own Pyramid of Greatness.
Does this happen? I think I’ve only experienced something close to this in high school, but never as an adult. Normally, people around me are either supportive or indifferent about someone learning new skills.
A disturbing percentage of people never outgrow highschool.
Yes, it does, especially when it’s something people think is weird. I am a guy in my 20’s and recently started learning to knit and I still have people telling me not to do it because it’s weird. You just have to do what you want to do and give 0 fucks about what others think
People hate on stuff all the time. How many people do you know who have made a derisive joke about people who hang truck nuts or something similar?
Yucking others’ yum is an incredibly common occurrence.
I think a lot of people use this as a way to start a conversation about what the person is doing and don’t think to ask it in a less confrontational way. Some people can’t handle seeing someone doing something that they thought they can’t or shouldn’t do. Most people don’t care or see another person doing what they please and respect that.
Sometimes I care about other opinion
Being yourself around everyone is easier said than done, but the more you can do it, the happier you will be. Getting older naturally makes it easier for most people. That’s part of the reason older people are happier.
I went to a renaissance faire recently with some friends. We dressed up, drank booze, watched a few “shows”, and wandered around – it was a blast.
It’s something I would have been mortified to admit to doing in my teens or 20s.
