Are you of the many or of the few?

simu

Well? Do you feel very unusual as a human or do you feel as if there are many out there quite similar to you?

Tis subjective really!

Blowfish

Neither, I'm all out on my own

biko

I feel very normal/ordinary.
But if I am, that's for others to decide.

arbeitsscheuer

atari jaguar, naturlich.

Crucifix

Hmm, I feel fairly unusual, but I would say that the majority of people I know are just as unusual.

Vidic-is-good

Proud to be unusual. Although, where I work it seems its best to be a conformist. Too bad, they'll never change me.

The_Minister

Everyone thinks they are unique. Most people will say that they are of the few.

Dooom

I'm superhuman. Honestly, I am. I've got mad powers and everything.

Laser eyes.

Wow must be great being able to shop without cash OR cards.

Dooom

It is. I don't need to carry my wallet, so I've a free pocket to put my SuperHero Communicator(tm) in.

Best thing that ever happened to me.

Huggles

I'm definitely of the few, I seem to drive in a different lane to everyone else, can't quite explain it so you will just have to take my word for it

Must cost you a fortune in car insurance

Huggles

Its through the roof

Squirrel

I reckon I'd think I'm of the few but surely that makes me the normal? Thinking you're individual shows how you're just the same as most. My 4 best mates are just like me, in different degrees of insanity

adox

"You are all individuals"


"Yes,we are all individuals"

Dizzyblabla

I'm pretty normal, I guess, but then I'm not at the same time, so I'm going to plead atari jaguar on this one I think!

Civilian_Target

One of the few, but I'm trying real hard to be one of the many.

The doctor even gave me these pills....

Rhyme

Strange how most of the votes have gone to the voter being unique. Then again, im odd so im among the many few.

Ruu_Old

I gave up trying to be "one of the many" a long time ago, much too hard

Sleipnir

Ah yeah. 6,000,000,000 people on the planet but YOU'RE different.

Tar.Aldarion

If I met somebody like me I would have them committed.
The mannerisms, humour, constant laughing, how easily aroused I am and frankly the seriously odd thoughts I randomly come out with.
I am weird.

rainbow kirby

Well I can be quite a strange little girl... so one of the few

monkeyfudge

My best friend is a monkey... Not many out there like me.

DEmeant0r

I would like to think i'm normal but realistically i'm very weird

fightin irish

funny thing..my better half said to me tonight...''why in gods name do you have to be so different to everyone else''.......My reply....All us blokes are the same ffs:p

Rb

Of the few, definately.
Those who know me well would agree, those who don't probably wouldn't tbh.

Tar.Aldarion

Bah, yee are all the same to me.
I can see what traits people have that are similar to other peoples, much like I can see a trait in somebody that is me.
It's the combination of traits that makes nobody really normal.
However, on the scale, the closer somebody is to this non existant normal, the less likely I am to find them to be interesting.

DEmeant0r

but you're interesting to me, isn't that all that matters?!

I am facinated by this revelation. Do you not think that this is a personal observation, or do you really believe that it is something those from the 'social norm' have missed out on? What is a social norm Tar Aldarion?

Tar.Aldarion

@Senritsu
It's because I'm weird... if I hear 'you are weird in a good way' one more time...
I will smile some more.

It'a personal observation that is a fact, my speciality is seeing things on people, people are open books(helps if I want to make somebody cry, insecurities are great).

A social norm; it is always changing and I would have to broach each aspect of society and how somebodies certain trait is seen as more
'normal' than a different one. Frankly, i'm lazy and don't care to touch it with my pole.

Betsy79

my boyfriend always says that there is no one else like me here in ireland but there might be some more like me in Austria cause he (and some others) thinks i'm a crazy austrian and unique :cool:

Peteee

So 60% have voted that they are of the few....therefore they are of the many

Lemming

Yes, I was aware of what adox was quoting, I just forgot that bloke who said "I'm not"... If indeed there is such a bloke. /me glares at Sleepy.

In any case, I was just using ur 'quote' to relate to this discussion... Meh.

ferdi

one of the many - i'll choose the blue pill every time.

Sleepy

Yep, there is indeed such a bloke. It's my favourite line of the movie...

We're all part of 'the many' as the notion of the many is merely a pluralistic composite of the average views of all people. No-one (or next to no-one) really holds all the views of 'the many' but it's fairly certain that at least some of any given persons beliefs will be the majority view on that topic.

It's also as unlikely to find any two people who will agree on every single issue and as such, we are all individuals in the manner in which we are part of the many.

So, we're both. Or something.
