Being yourself? or just acting like you are in order to fit in?

I'm generally true to myself, but of course, I have to be more polite and conscious of my mannerisms when dealing with certain groups of people, such as strangers, co-workers, professors, employers, and the such. I mean, you won't catch me making popping noises saying "Zoink!" in front of an employer, but at any other time, I most certainly will. As far as social situations in front of my peers are concerned, I've learned that if I have to conform to gain acceptance, it's not even worth it in the long run. Never ends well. Furthermore, if anything, I can't stand it when people just agree agree agree, regardless of what their true opinions are. The most boring ones are the ones who express no opinion of their own.

Now, I do act a bit differently in front of certain people. I've often been accused of acting "fake" in front of friends and being a different way at home. This isn't true at all. Different people bring out different parts of my personality. I'm sillier in front of friends because we play off each other's retardedness, whereas at home, this aspect hits a brick wall. It's just not fun to act that way at home, so while I still do it, it's considerably less obnoxious.

How ya doing, buddy?
