you've got two options.

first, be an ignorant consumist who lives in a life of materialistc illusions, you're just a puppet of the system and are not your true self, but you're socially accepted and have many friends.

second,you just laugh at those people who wear all the same clothes and listen to the same songs while you are free to be your true self and do what you want without caring about other people's thoughts but you ain't got friends.

which would you choose and why?

Bla bla bla "puppet of the system".

So much of this crap these days. You "anti-society" hippies make such a big deal out of every single thing that you've become as annoying as those people who "must follow all trends".

Why do people have to keep finding something to disagree so that they can ***** about the opposite behavior? Can't we all chill a little bit?

why is there one option where you don't have any friends?

being yourself doesn't mean not having friends. you just find the people that don't give a sh*t. i thought we've grown past "being popular is the only way to have friends".

because not following trends is the new trend.

all->¬equal <==> none->different

So it seems, which is exactly the reason to why such behavior has become a pain. Because it's not simply doing it. It's *****ing about people doing the opposite. And the "other group" does the same, and it's a nonstoping pain in the ass.

People can choose the way they want to live. They can follow all the trends, they can follow none of them, it's all up to you. But stop complaining about another way just because the person doesn't act like you. It's so simple to understand.

But I'm not complaining about my life. I said that people just love to b*tch about others' "way to live", be either to follo all trends or none of them, as well as other styles.

Can't everyone just be themselves without complaining so much about the opposite style of life?

This went over y'alls heads, this was simply a game where you only have two options and choose why. But like always, you all try to find loopholes and ruin the thread. Its like the if you only had to choose one food which would it be and why, but you have to eat it for the rest of your life, its not a go to the ****ing store and buy that food and only eat that for the rest of your life. Geez some of you just like to take shit to another unnecessary level.

I will be the only smart person in this thread and choose the second one. I rather have a life with meaning that one of passive emotions.

entirely agree!! I would choose my own way. I just don't have the time to keep up with all the trends.

hey, no need to be insulting. we posted what we thought was appropriate. you don't like it you can ignore it. being condescending doesn't help anyone.

It was a hypothetical question where you only had two options, there was no gray area, like I said, it went over your head and thought it was a question you could modify, its not.
It doesnt hurt to play along with hypothetical questions, i'm well aware you can be yourself and have friends, but that was not the option/question.

i was asking why in one of the options you can't have any friends. the two options were your lifestyle, i disagreed with the results of the lifestyle choices. if someone asks would you rather a) eat too much ice cream and puke or b) eat too little ice cream and feel sorry. i would have asked why should i feel sorry for eating little? my problem was with the logic, not the game. did that go over your head?

It was simply a game, but apparently you over analyzed the options. There was no room for improvement of your opinion. If you are given two options on the test to write about something, you pick one or the other, you dont modify to your liking simply because you think it failed in the logic department. You dont come of as very smart simply by blindly questioning a simple game. You pick one or the other, end of story and you play along. The neat thing about these games is that you get to move away from the comfort zone and see it from a pre-determined angle. You made the grave mistake of adding your opinion to an established option, that was not the point. It was black or white, no in between. So many options I could come up with, but i would simply be wasting my time, when its so trivial and right on your face .Of course I wouldn't expect you to understand any of it, bummer really.

i'm sure you are very proud of yourself. you are really smart to have decided to answer the question with 98% of your post as insults and degrading of others. and every post since then was just insults and degrading of me. no really, you deserve an award for taking this question and thread so seriously, and to care so much about what others answered. you should find someone that can stomach you to buy you a gift.

i'm out of here.

There was nothing degrading, pay attention that i said you overanalyzed the theme. Meaning that you have the ability to apply intellect but not on the correct occasions. Only ignorant people can feel offended by such. I get the feeling you found out I was right and simply couldn't bare the thought of it. Its alright though, we can't agree on everything.


I'm out too, have a nice day. I bought an Oreo cookie popsicle to reward myself.
