You know, i really dont see whats so wrong about being conceited, people tend to hate people who are conceited, what's so wrong about loving themselves and showing it off? maybe those people should just lay off and start fixing things in themselves so their insecurities wont get in the way, and just stop caring.

lol Phoenix. Great pathway of thought.

Conceit infers a one up/down manship to me. If you speak to someone and come away impressed, they're considered assured, and you bring away a positive feeling. If after speaking, you feel worse for the dialogue, you feel they're conceited. Maybe it's just the perspective of view.

i think people take the word "conceited" the most negative way lol so its presented as a negative trait in society. If someone says "this girl i know is SOO conceited" people would stand back and go "she must be a cookiemonster then." Bah whatever. Anyone up for halloween this year?

Halloween? Hmm... For free chocolate, one must be crazy not to.

My friend called my conceited, it was so out of the blue, and I didn't understand... Ofcourse I just made a few jokes and the whole thing blew right over...

I think anybody who has pride can seem a little conceited every now and again... It's not bad, as long as they don't get too egotistical and wind up as cookiemonsteres.

well last year my dads car got egged EVERY SINGLE treetrunkING DAY. Because his car sucks ass(i mean literally, the car was junk but atleast it was running...well nto perfectly but yes it was still running >.>😉. But one fine day, he sold the car, and got a new one. They never layed hands on it ever again... the moral of the story? people suck.

Every damn Halloween our house gets egged and our pumpkins get smashed by bastard teenagers. But oh well, everyone knows most teenagers are bastards anyway, that's why nobody on our block puts out pumpkins anymore. The eggs we just expect naturally now.

It's better than what happened a few years ago...I used to have a white 1979 Monte Carlo. It was parked next to the curb outside my house. Some bastard poured BLUE INK all over it. Luckily with much washing it came off.

I like the word "bastard" lately, as a side note.

Speaking further from the down side..

It's a shame all the kids (with parents)have to go trick or treating in broad daylight. There's something inherently wrong with that. Ditto the things kids want to be nowdays.
My first costume was a white sheet with eye holes badly cut out and postioned. Tugged along by my older brother. Walk 5 steps, fall, get up, adjust sheet, trip,etc.

I think it's the DXP version of S.O.B. for males, and whatever for females. You'll notice they talk alot about tree trunkin', this group.. and they have a butter obsession. Yes, we newbies NEED a Grammarian GuideLine.

My favorite seseme street character was always Oscar the Grouch... I was just fasinated by the idea somebody would want to live in a garbage can.

I liked Oscar as well. I think the rest of his can lay somewhere in the 5th dimension.. with all the stuff he'd toss out, sounds and noises of other rooms from below, etc.
I'd no idea kiddies were being introduced to interdiminsional physics. I could not have spelled that right.
