What are your weaknesses?

Ooh, this sounds like a fun place to start posting in the Quiet Place. o_O

Although I certainly have plenty of shortcomings, I think my main fault is that I have a tendency to be cynical. In this case I mean it in the sense that I don't trust people to do the right thing basically. I don't like being cynical or people who are cynical, and so I exert myself not to be. But it seems to be my "default setting".

I guess a good example would be pop music. Thinking about it objectively, if a song is popular it means that (for whatever reason) a lot of people liked it enough to go out and buy the CD. I know this, but I still think "Pop music is shitty, only retards would listen to this crap," while the correct answer would be "I'm must be weird because I can't stand something that a lot of people like enough to pay good money for it."

Also, I don't like people who are really talented/skillful at something and don't realise it. You know, they go like "Oh, I'm not very good, all my work kinda sucks", etc. But I think I am that way myself, so I try not to "let that out" so to speak. But of course, you don't want to come off as overly confident either...

I guess I am accepting of my faults, but I try to fix them if at all possible. I really wouldn't mind surgically removing them. =D

(I do also have your garden variety male stuff, you know, somewhat anti-social, fear of commitment, cursing a lot... But those are not that interesting I think.)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Another big weakness I have is that I'm as narcissistic as anybody you'll ever meet. There's a thin line between confidence and vanity, and I definitely cross over it more often than I should.

That sounds like a great mix...

There's nowhere I can't reach.
