Do you tell people your views and take a poll? That is about the only way you could know they were unpopular. How do you dress and what rules do you make?

Looks like I am taking a huge number 2 on the medical community too!

No.


How do I dress?

Well I mismatch clothes, wear ripped jeans on occasion, like I stated in another thread: I like to pop my collar on dress shirts



What rules do I make?

Well I only have one: Do what I want , when I want, as long as its legal

Popping your collar, how radical! Ripped jeans are making a comeback. You might have to stop wearing them because you wouldn't want to be in. Glad you are obeying the laws of the land. I try to too, because it cuts down on court costs and lawyer fees.

When I was in college in the early 2000s every "bro" popped his collar and wore ripped jeans. Maybe it fell out of fashion since then idk.

Um. I own an Akita while everyone and their mother owns a French Bulldog. I also don't plan on letting my home owners insurance know cause I roll like a gangsta.

OP I take back my earlier suggestion, you are WAY TOO out there for Portland. Or Key West or the Village.
Mismatched clothes and popped collared dress shirts
Holy cow!

I hate to tell you this OP but you may just be too far beyond the pale to ever be understood.
That's OK though, you can be a groundbreaker and others may start to emulate your outrageousness if they ever get up the nerve.

I live by my rules and not society's .


So do you conform to social norms or are you a rebel like me?

So you are a socially accepted normal rebel just like all of the other socially accepted normal rebels?

OP, we are all kind of being smartarses, but it is late. You do you, and make yourself happy. It is good that you don't try to conform to what others want or to what you believe society wants you to do. Night.
