You don’t gotta get high on drugs to be comfortable with your own weird vibe.
Sometimes I care about other opinion
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.
We dressed up, drank booze…
I’ve never quite understood the appeal of ren faires, mainly because I’m frugal and I always felt like there wasn’t much to do except buy stuff. Reading your comment, I think there might be a key step or two that I overlooked.
Sometimes it’s good to care. If someone is saying you’re acts are immoral irresponsible or genuinely with your interests in mind you should listen and make a decision. If its someone saying you’re being odd or being weird they’re projecting their own self consciousness to stand out from the crowd.
What?

People can and will argue that whatever you’re doing they don’t like or inconveniences them is immoral to manipulate you into not doing it.
They’ll even twist morality around to mean that you can’t act with confidence or do anything different from what they want.
So no one should take morality arguments seriously either
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.
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.
I love this
