Anti-Conformity My Ass
to be influenced by another
You know what really pisses me off? Those stupid punks that are all anarchy and all anti-conformity. Or anyone anti-conformity. It's all just something to try to make the "punks" look "punkier." If you told me you weren't a conformist I would laugh in your face. Maybe it's just that I have a different definition of the word conform (look above). Let me say this: YOU ARE A CONFORMIST. So am I. Deal with it, get over it. Rather than trying to be "the individual" or "the trendsetter", I think it's more important to choose your influences. By influence I don't mean "Wow... he's hot. Hey everybody, I'm voting for Nader!" I mean listen to their opinion and compare it with yours. Whose makes more sense? That's all it comes down to. Your opinion is what makes sense. It's what you can believe.
Some people have a different definition of conform. Some people think conformity is basically not being an individual. Not having an opinion of your own, not having a voice in anything. Just going along with what everyone else is doing. And if I thought that was "conformity", well then hell, I would hate it too. But I just don't like people stereotyping the word "conformist."
Some people might be saying "Well, you're an idiot, because that isn't the definition of conformist. Well, sonny, let me give you the definition of "conformity":
correspondence in form, manner, or character
If you want me to go by that, I am even more pissed off! Do you have brown eyes? CONFORMIST!! She does too! You are corresponding in a form of eye color.
Alright, my head is starting to hurt. I think I've yelled enough. If you agree or don't, I want to know what you think...
