Given how rubbish recent threads have been, I once again feel the urge to rip a thread idea from other forums.

Post aspects of your personality/appearance/whatever that you don't really like and you would change if you could (or knew how).

i'll post mine once i've thought it all out.

I'm often too nice to people, and then it comes back biting me in the arse.

ANAKIN: What? You fool, I told you NO CROUTONS! Aaaaaaargh!

Ditto.

I also am far too serious about things.

My level of self-confidence is . . . how should I put this . . . TOO KAKDAMNED LOW.

I'm somewhat the opposite of Flexor. I can be a real ***hole to people and not be aware of it. I had it pointed out to me though. I would also like to put some pounds (kilograms) on me.

I am self deprecative.

I get nervous or detached in social situations and therefore become kind of awkward.

Those are things I can think of right off the top of my head that I wish I could change.

I'll start with appearance because it's probably the most straightforward. I don't like the incredibly irritating acne cycle I seem to be going through, I can get things to clear up for a few days, then it all comes back. I also don't like the amount of effort it takes to make my hair look presentable. I have to wash my hair every morning because otherwise it sticks out in weird directions and gets all matted together, then I am basically required to use gel/wax/mousse to stop it looking like a mop. I also don't like my lack of muscle, but this i'm working on.

Now for personality stuff... lets see. I occasionally have a habit of saying a 'private joke' (one of those things which is funny when you think about it, but somehow doesn't work when you say it) which tends to kill conversations a bit. My major problem is the fact that even when i'm talking about personal stuff to friends, one-on-one, I talk very matter-of-factly, I don't let people know what i'm really thinking. I'm also bad at saying what I know I should be saying.

Let's see...

- I'm arrogant.
- I'm agressive.
- I think I'm better than I am.
- I lack a decent sense of humour.
- I'm acnefied.
- I have pretty crappy hair.
- I'm a loner.
- I'm incredibly shy.
- I'm cynical.
- I prefer to be inside.
- I'm unfit.
- I'm not exactly Mr. Slim.
- I'm lazy.
- I'm badly motivated.
- I watch more pr0n than is good for me.
- I can't often control my behaviour around other people.
- I have very lax personal hygiene standards.

There's some other stuff which'll make me sould desperate, wich I'll refrain from posting, so you don't think I'm a complete loser.

Well, I can still be kind to people some times. I hate it when that happends. And some times I don't take money from little kids. And ocasionally I won't be dessrespectfull to my parents. Oh, and some times I forget to fall in with bad company every night. I some times I forget to take my crack.
Just kidding.

After thinking about it, I don't really have anything that I don't like about myself. I worked on those things and resolved them long ago. That's the power of self-improvement at work.

I'm serious and I'm being as forthcoming as I can be.

Blown away by the force of the word, woken up by the sound of the siren. It's genocide.

• I really don't like myself.
• I seem to be a natural born loser.
• I have nagging acne problems.
• In relation to the one above, my hair always gets really greasey.
• I have absolutly no luck/talent/ability with girls what-so-ever. Case in point, a girl left me to be with a guy who just got out of the marines due to injury. I liked her for about a year, get 3 weeks, and I'm yesterdays trash.
• I get tongue tied and can't talk straight all the time.
• No matter how much I try, I suck in sports.
• I'm almost too freaking tall. Love it when people assume I'm good at sports, espically basketball. Yes I've played, but I'm not good at it you idiot.
• Being tall provides me roughly 0 coordination.
• I'm a procrastinator. This really sucks with honors classes. No matter how much I want to do it, for some reason I can't.
• I hate my glasses with a passion.
• I'm a loner for the most part, except several friends I have.
• Thanks to violent games, I tend to lose my temper a lot.
• In addition I have a really nasty temper.
• I can't drive worth crap, and get made fun of for it. After a while, it reallllly gets under my skin.
• I can't get a real job. Work for my grandpa some doing real estate appraisals, but as far as have steady work, I can't get hired.
• I really should go to church more to cut down this freaking list.
• I'm too freaking stubborn.

Off the top of my head. No, I don't have any of that self esteem stuff, and for the most part I couldn't care less.

I'm too nice.

My voice. Actually my public voice. When I'm with family or friends it sounds fine to me, but when I'm like with people I don't know or with older people, I'm not sure if I just hear it differently or it actually comes out differently, but it sounds dumb...

Can I say what I don't like about other people? No? Okay, I'll do myself:

I have a very bad temper.
I have very little patience.
I can be very judgemental at times.

There's other stuff about me that other people think are flaws, but I am perfectly happy with... things like the fact that I don't like kids/babies, or other people in general.

------------------
Brian's Web Log is CLOSED.

I have this image of the perfect person I'd like to be. Most of it centers around self-control. A couple of character flaws I hope to remove:
[*]A level of insecurity. I've always despised the kind of "loser" person who is willing to accept the pity of others, or who doesn't realize that others think of him this way. In an effort to avoid this I think I've just found it better to assume a person thinks of me this way until it's apparent they think of me otherwise. I don't want to ask people favors, or suggest I need them.[*]I've had a hard time over the years giving a name to this one, but I think I just have a complete lack of faith in everyone around me. I assume people may think of me in a way they probably don't, or if I do think otherwise, I don't want to "test the limits" (I guess the phrase would be).[*]Pride. It keeps me from accepting anything I percieve as pity, asking for the favors, etc. Fits into the above two, where I percieve much as pity that isn't, and too many favors as one's that shouldn't be asked. Maybe it's not "too much" pride, just a normal amount that doesn't react well with the insecurity. But humility is always nice. With a little work... As for others, don't percieve being "too nice" as a flaw. I consider myself nice, and have considered myself "too nice." I probably saw it as an admirable trait in others and hoped to replicate it. People see it as a flaw in themselves, I think, because many see it as something to take advantage of. You put in the effort of being nice in the hopes it will attract the admiration you saw in it to begin with, and get only crap from people who view it as a weakness to be taken advantage of. [i]I can tell a story, as I'm sure you can...[/i] Those who admire it probably don't say anything, I never did. It's something that's it's own reward in the end, and in the present aswell. It'll pay off eventually. Others take advantage of it because they can't see that. You have to have a little guile and see the oportunists, and a little forcefullness to point out that you have your own stuff to take care of too, but nicety isn't a weakness outright. ------------------ Steal my dreams and sell them back to me.....

"Dalton, that pie just moved of it's own accord."

"You must be mistaken, Tess. A pie can't move."

- I would consider my largest flaw to be how I subconciously attack problems, things that need to get done, things I want to do, etc. I think and think and think about it, waste time, and take side-jaunts. It takes me *forever* to get motivated to do something, and by the time I feel like doing it, I have to go to bed, work, or other crap, after which I have totally lost my will to tackle it. So, very seldom, like once every two months, I'll go into a frenzy for a couple hours and accomplish a whole bunch of crap.. easily tons more in two hours than I had accomplished for the past two months. This cycle goes on and on and on and I'm sick of it.

That's my biggest problem. My other main problem, which I wouldn't really consider a problem myself, is how detached I become socially, at events.. basically when it's anything other than a one-on-one with somebody, I detach, observe, sulk, and don't contribute. I say I don't really consider this a problem because I think there's certain benefits to this, plus I don't really mind this at this time in my life. It's mostly other people that remark at it and think it's arrogant or whatever... pfffft.

For example, we got these two new girls at work, (they're like 15, I'm 20). I generally just.. don't talk. I don't see why people have such a huge problem with this. A long time after they quit, I was told by my boss that the girls thought I hated them.. It was a little surprising. I mean, sure I'm always quiet at work but they took it to mean that I disliked them.. whatever. It's not like they made an attempt to talk to me. Being as supposedly outgoing as they claimed it shouldn't have been such a big problem.

As am I. I am also a "smarta**". I also say some bad things about someone to their face and I don't realize what I said until about 5 minutes later, and then I feel awful.

Patience wise, the most patient I've ever been was how I waited 5 freaken months for The Phantom Menace game for PS, when it kept getting delayed and delayed.

Seriously though?

I'm unfit

Too harsh on people I know

Too nice to people I don't know.

Try to fit in with people I met a few seconds ago, and fail miserably.

I can't stick up for myself some times

I'm lazy and unmotivated to get off my *** .

I constantly need others to do things for me.

I can't get chores done because they seem too "hard" or "Time-consuming"

• Kinda chubby (210-220 lbs -- 30-40
• overweight ) -- trying to work on this one
• Not particularly fond of literature or writing at all (and I'm proud! )
• Too nice
• Little to no self confidence (a.k.a. shy -- thus, few actual friends (as opposed to aquaintances) and no girls )
• Could have gotten a driver's license 10 months ago but still on the permit and with only 6/7 driving sessions (that would be my dad's fault -- long and complicated story...)
