HATE ME for making 3 posts in one day

[vicarz]

This is today's meme, same as the other one with one variation:
What do you think is wrong with me?
What sucks about me?
What character flaws do I have, or what do I do that you hate?
Why do I suck as a person?

Anonymous posts are, as always, enabled with no isp tracking. Rip me a new one. No, seriously - have a day. I mean if I really don't like something I can delete it, right?

I think you suck because you didn't send me kinder eggs like you said you would.

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Well damn they don't waste any time, do they!
You just say that because of my icon, don't you? Well look...it's a BOY CHICKEN! Boy chickens don't lay eggs!

New FDA "bioterrorism" regulations have made it almost impossible to smuggle Knider Eggs into the US. Really.

Damn...I thought they'd never find out my secretly HATCHED plot.

Does everyone know that the vast majority of terrorist funds are being used for drug enforcement? Does everyone realing that the country's law enforcement groups are pitching a bitch because the new Bush budget has major cuts in drug enforcement programs, a major cash cow?

You may win the internet on that one. Must you mock my former career as a breakdancer?

Sorry - I tossed my cookies.

It looks like I'll have to wait to be ripped a new one. They'll come...build it and they'll come...

Why do I suck as a person?

Sheesh, I don't know. The obvious temptation is to blame your parents. But then, I have to ask myself, is it something horribly wrong with the genetic material of one of your progenitors, or merely an unfortunate combination of two individually innocuous packages of DNA? Or perhaps they just didn't beat you enough when you were a stripling. Or maybe you'd be all right if the rest of us just stopped enabling your horrible behavior. Tough call.

I think you're pretty fucking cocky, but y'know what they say... girls like cocky boys.

I think you lack tolerance for stupid people, but most smart people do.

I think you are ruthlessly blunt, but people who know you also know that you don't pull any punches.

It's not that I think you're simply blustering, but I wonder if it's partially defensive? Sometimes (and rarely) J, you let a little sensitivity and vulnerability slip... ;-)

P.S.

For all the meme-hating you've harbored in the past, why the sudden outburst?

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Wow I'm being ragged on by a furrie...

Yeah the temptation to blame the bio-stew is great, but I refuse to pretend that my disadvantages outweigh the gifts. I'll blame you bastards instead.

[vicar.livejournal.com]

Cocky is arrogance, which is a front for insecurity.

I'm actually trying to tame the ruthless honesty thing and hold the rants for people not specifically identified - being gentle with individuals unless I am sure they can take the abuse assistance.

The general though occurred to me and I'm on a "make fun of LJ" kick while I'm on LJ a lot. People seem to love memes, but I don't see the point. They say nothing...

Everyone is talking but no one says a thing. So, I'm a freak.

Jose,

It appears that nobody has taken you up on your actual question. You suck in at least the following ways:

You are arrogant, shallow, and aloof. This may be a defense mechanism, but that's how you have always seemed to me.

You are extremely self centered. Next time you have a conversation with an acquaintance, at the end look back and see whether you asked a single thing about the other person. More likely you just talked about yourself, or if you talked about some neutral topic, you probably expoused whatever your views are without really engaging in discussion.

You are vain. I'm sure I don't need to tell you this.

I hope this helps.

Thank you

It's an honest response - though I would have missed it entirely if I hadn't recently enabled emails of comments.

I certainly suck in ways other than these.

Arrogant, shallow, and aloof - actually those flaws describe my behavior, but not me. Arrogance is a thin sheild against insecurity, an obvious one I think. Arrogance is just a behavior set, it's the core of that issue that really needs addressing. I'm trying to learn humility in action, not just in words.

Shallow and aloof - perhaps a bit shallow, but I'm not sure if that's so much a present flaw as a reaction to my current life situation. When my entire workload can be pushed back if I spend 2 hours with a friend on the weekend - it's hard not to be aloof. Every non-work activity is a low priority - and it simply has to be this way or I will fail.

Self-centered - probably more guilty as charged. I've actually been trying to listen more, and focus more on exchange than simply espousing my views on a subject. It seems I have at least one vote for not improving as much in that area as I should. Time restrains also make that difficult, as does the fact my primary area of socialization is in clubs - where conversation is difficult.

Vain - yup, which is funny because I'm short and rather plain. I'm not going to try and fix that problem because the illusion keeps me going to the gym.
