Do you start people at ten, or do they need to earn it?

I start people at 5 and if they turn out to be douches they lose points but if they turn out to be awesome they gain points.

[Minimalist]

Oh, I didn't specifically mean here.  Here the atheists advance rapidly.

It's not voluntary and I don't actually consciously give people number scores.

LOL, I recall several years ago telling a general contractor about my 'shit list' but to not worry about it too much. I save it for folks that put in that extra effort to get on it.

Lo and behold, 2 years later, he managed the fucking brass ring and got on the damn thing himself.

I wasn't terribly sympathetic, he pretty much got a "neener neener neener" from me when he protested/begged to get off it. Sorry you stoopid fuck, you don't get off the shit list by asking. Go donate a kidney to a starving third world orphan, or something big to impress me. And whining about it sure ain't a good start.

Baked?  Fried??

I get bored pretty quickly, I also find it very hard to find common things to speak to people about. I guess I'm a total loner, I'm not afraid of people, also it's not a matter of low self esteem; I would initiate if needed and I'm pretty optimistic about the results.

But, I get bored. I think my topics of speech aren't that interesting,my words are in many time very harsh, my sense of humor is hard to detect. So I'm not the people's person type of guy; I expect others to see me this way, been told so also; so I guess I rank with 1.5 / 10 ?

[The Industrial Atheist]

Well I often lack the confidence to initiate things. So often others have to introduce themselves. Then I'm like "OMG this cool person wants to be my friend!" Once that happens they are pretty high up on the scale. It's not that I'm unfriendly, I guess that stuff is awkward for me and I fear rejection.

Hanneh! Build that confidence, yo. You’re pretty darn cool.

Thanks! I'm working on it.

I usually start people somewhere between 0 and 5. I'm an apathetic introvert, so it takes a lot for me to genuinely like and care about someone. Most of the time, I just want to be left alone IRL.
