Ah yes, that happens to me as well. The drinks bit, I mean.

This has never happened to me. I can't remember ever refusing an alcoholic beverage. 'Cept when driving. Which is not often.

Honestly, (not that this is necessarily my opinion) its that people that don't drink tend to be stuck up and boring who act like they're better than anyone else who give crap explanations as to why they don't (medical issues being the only acceptable one here).

I refuse to drink and I take offence! :P

No I like a drink, I just don't stop when I start... haha!

I can smell it. I've got the nose of a purebred boozehound.

In that case I'll just stop at the "piss off" section of my plan. :tongue:

Edit: If it's there's a drinking game going on however, I can make an exception every once in a while.

Of course, this should only offend you if you're stuck up and boring, which I'm sure you're not.

I don't drink because I don't like the taste, and because my father was an alcoholic. Not something I want to explain any further. And I don't believe I am stuck up and I don't think my friends see me like that either. I have always been the kind of person that is loud and hyper all the time and can have fun without drinking. It's just who I am. I remember when I used to go late night shopping with friends and we would form conga lines and shout CONGA! at random people we walked past.

Everyone gives me weird looks when I tell them I don't like beer. Don't mind liquor but beer is disgusting.

I've gotten weird looks for enjoying the music I'm listening to. I'm talking a toned down "public" version of rockin out. No singing, maybe some humming or whistling. Tapping my feet and bobbing my head, maybe a small air guitar, air drums or air bass here and there. People look at me like I'm nuts.

Apparently, the accepted method of listening to music around here is to sit perfect still and stare blankly straight ahead. Must be listening to some pretty [censored] music if you don't get into it at least a little.

Nah, I've seen people get well into rap.

As did I, when I saw the Wu-Tang Clan.

I wear my pants like this;

http://www.goinggoingbike.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Roll-up-cropped1-1024x696.jpg

with very nice colorful socks underneath it.

So last month I was biking to work and this highschool girl not far from me started shouting to her friend in slowmo;

"OOOHHH---MMMMM-----GGGG!!! HE'S WEAARING REDD SOCKSS!"

small town people are not used to see cute red socks on a man's feet...

I've never heard of cute red socks ever being described as such. I didn't think socks could be anything but socks to be honest. Still, a good time for this I think. The post reminded me of it for some reason. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flDOOD9BnaM&feature=player_embedded

I used to grow a beard, but then I took an arrow to the knee I grew a beard. Now everything I do is awesome, even if it's a mistake. I have an epic beard and people respond to it.

I have no idea why.

At New Years Eve I was getting tipsy and ended up at completely random parties with some of my friends. I met lots of guys who was like "love you're beard!" or "I like whats going on there!" when I was having a little Johnny Depp style beard going on on my face.

So stuff like that does happen. :tongue:

Someone threw a rock at my head and called me a 'goth' because my friend dyed her hair black.


I've never ever even been able to begin to figure that one out. For the record I am blonde and we had to wear a school uniform. People are weird.

I also got laughed at for wearing my sandals with the backs up instead of down.

Urinating in public may be considered normal where you guys live, but along with weird looks, we over here get ourselves a 100 dollar ticket aswell. :teehee:

You obviously don't live in Australia then :). I do love my country but here in Adelaide we have virtually no PUBLIC restrooms. I can't even count how many times I've seen a drunk guy taking a leak while at late night shopping.

Look at it like this: You get looked at wierd if you admit that you play video games (and you are in your 20s-30s and up)
I'd say 30s and up

I get a lot of weird looks when I eat a loaf of bread for a meal. I don't mean the sliced kind for sandwiches, I mean like an Italian loaf or something that has some bulk to it. Maybe it's because I spent so much time in 3rd world countries and trekking, where bread is a large part of the diet, but I am just dandy living off of bread alone. Whenever I have a break at work I go by the bakery and grab a loaf, and eat it while in line (I only get 15 min breaks, can't waste time! ). Other customers look at me like I am snapping the neck off a baby and eating it. It's ridiculous. Oh well. It doesn't annoy me much, once you've spent time in countries where you are the minority and don't speak the language well, weird looks become the norm.
