You want to try being me for a day.
Actually, you don't. Trust me on this.
I don't know how to be anyone other than me. And I am not sure that I even know how to be me.

I don't know how to be me but I sort of happen all by myself anyway, thankfully. It's fun being normal. It would be so boring if I was weird. Wouldn't it? Wouldn't it? Just wouldn't it? Would that it were, would that it were. Ahhh..

There are other categories you should vote in if you think someone is 'awesome'. Weirdness... isn't really all that much.
Mostly, I think it'd be better for my head to not win it, this year.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam

* Violet thinks that a poster needs to have a strong showing of the nonsequitur before they should be given such a prestigiously asinine reward as the award for "Weirdest Member" of this forum. But that's just her.
Prof. is so much more than just a failed prophet, though. He has delusions that seep into every fiber of his being. He can't watch a Super Bowl halftime show without seeing demonic messages from the New World Order. He has been absolutely convinced that the end of the world is coming on multiple occasions, and last time he said he would leave the forum if he was wrong. Of course, he never did and was back this year making the same prediction. Failure doesn't even register in his brain.
He is certainly in the running for the award.

I just meant that you are interesting in awesome ways and not boring and mundane. You don't have to win the award

I couldn't act like Randy if I tried. I don't believe in preaching to people or telling people they are wrong. Disagree with conclusions, sure. But hey we're all still people.
Cya around neighbors! 
So like. It's October.
How do you feel about going the route of properly nutty weirdness over the next 2 months... and taking that ceaselessly irritating 'weirdest member' award from me this year?
5 times winning is 4 too many for me. Do you think you have what it takes?
I'm not up to the challenge. For me, my vote would be Little Rik. That bunny ears smilie should be removed solely because of that dude
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.

I'd vote for him as the cockiest member of the year. Have yet to see anyone from this forum top him in this area.

When people used to say to me "you're weird" all I heard them say was "I'm boring".

Someone said it to me once who I liked a lot.... I got quite upset because I quite liked them.....
Turned out a while later I found out that she liked weird guys. It was a compliment.
Another girl once asked if I was kinky and then followed it up with "You better not be." To which I replied... "Uh.... I'm not kinky".
I think she was wishing I'd admitted I was, it turns out. Heh.
...Yeah I'm not good at flirting. No practice.
Talking dirty on the other hand... lol
