Negative you!

[Stoic Beverage]

Sigh. If one made a thread for negative traits/aspects of self, I bet everyone could go on for pages.

Well, here is that thread, still steaming.
I, for one, didn't enjoy the "Positive you!" thread very much. If I really were to search for my own positive aspects, I just might find some. I'd have to acknowledge that. Which I don't want to.

So, post negative things about yourself. Things you do wrong, things you've never been good at, and overall bad things about your personality, physical appearance, habits, etc...

In some places, this is also known as a pity party.

I'll start.

I'm a terrible procrastinator, and sometimes don't give enough of a damn to get the work done at all. I'm also somewhat of an intellectual elitist. At times I can be narcissistic, and at times others just want me to quit with the self-loathing.

Your turn.

EDIT: In honor of suggestion by Sr. Germanfacetimetravelingjusticeduck, this is also a "Negative others" thread. Feel free to rip each other to shreds, both with words and shiny weapons.

 

[JoeJoe]

I kill innocent children.

 

[shoeless]

i'm too tall.

 

[JoeJoe]

hm, maybe we should make this a "Negative others" thread where we flame and bash everybody else.

Shoeless, you're conceited.

 

[shoeless]

joejoe, you're german.

 

[JoeJoe]

joejoe, you're german.

I take that as a compliment.

[CoryJames]

While I spend an inordinate amount of time analyzing others and pointing out the irrationalities that I see all around me, I neglect to turn that objective analysis fully inwards into the multitude of fears and self perceived flaws that I have allowed to shape the person I have become.

Also, I am a manipulator and can be extraordinarily passive aggressive with those close to me sometimes.

 

[Dimensional Transition]

I'm very hypocritical. I change my thoughts too much. I worry about stupid things. I'm selfish. I don't like myself.

Being negative about yourself is so easy! Haha... ):

 

[gruesomebrat]

@shoeless: There's such thing as being too tall? And you've made it there? How tall are you?

@Cory: Manipulation is bad? Hmm...

I'm a bit of an elitist, I suppose. If I don't consider you to be intellectually stimulating enough, you get ignored, or talked down to, simply because I don't want to deal with the idiocy that is small talk with you...

 

[shoeless]

well i'm like 5'9, which isn't REALLY "too" tall, but i'd still like to be a couple inches shorter. purely for aesthetic reasons. that's just me being picky.

 

[Cavallier]

This seems like a Face sort of thread...I hope you know I'm judging you all now.

I am often incapable of being reassuring. Someone I know and love needs emotional support and instead of giving them a hug I end up trying to systematically solve their problems for them logically. It's not what they want but it's how I know to love.

Also, red hair. Stupid red hair.

 

[Stoic Beverage]

Hey, don't rip red hair. I consider it one of my greatest assets.
(I understand that was the exact opposite of what this thread is supposed to be, but I made the thread so I have the ability to completely contradict myself by action.)
I guess I'll add another negative about myself so this post isn't completely hypocritical.
I'm a hypocrite.

 

[CoryJames]

Red hair. HA!

 

[indigofireflies]

I judge people.
I can be manipulative.
I lie without thinking.
I procrastinate horribly.
I'm pathetically messy.

 

[Dormouse]

I complain about my defaults too much.

 

[Anthile]

I'm about as sociable as a rabid grizzly bear.

You know, they really open up once you give them a chance.

What she said. But having red hair is awesome. I've seen your pics on facebook, and it totally works for you. I'd dye my hair red if it wouldn't make my blonde eyebrows disappear. And dyeing is a pain in the neck since red fades after a few weeks...

As for me, I hate how I can't focus on important things (I'm here when I have exams coming up in a week. Case in point.) and I can't find a career that fits me perfectly, or even adequately. It's times like this when I wish my mind was narrow enough that I could be satisfied with a single career. But then I remember how much fun it is to think about everything.

 

[NoID10ts]

Negative attributes? Me?

Hmmmm ..........

Well, I'm perfect. A little too perfect, if you know what I mean.

 

[Inappropriate Behavior]

I'm me.

^^pathetic huh?

Okay, I have an incurable case of apathy. My diet is centered around cheese pizza and bran cereal. I've stolen about 50 books in my lifetime. I've been both bullied and a bully. My mind too often wanders and too often doesn't wander towards something interesting. The trash can is right there and yet I leave it on the counter (sometimes for days). I can't think of anything else even though I should be able to.

Well look on the bright side. Letting other people know these things no doubt makes them feel a little better about their own dreary lives. That counts for something. Kudos!

Counts for a negative. I don't want to make anyone feel better. I want others to feel like a piece of gum some obese child chewed for 15 seconds before spitting it out because it tasted gross that then got stepped on by a fireman so that he got his foot stuck on a ladder that made him drop the baby he was trying to rescue from a 4th story window of an orphanage. Is that so much to ask?

I shoulda posted in the other thread (whatever that is).

Oh well, I was referring to "other people". You always make me feel this way, so kudos again!

I'm going to cheer you up yet.

 

[Inappropriate Behavior]

Well you can try and of course fail. Making you a failure....which kinda makes me feel better and....Aw fuck!

 

[The Gopher]

Still don't know how to make the up arrow. Too lazy to find out, is an Internet DJ (yes that is negative) can't think of something interesting to do.

 

[Ex-User (4771)]

Im driven insane by my own thoughts

[Cheeseumpuffs]

I'm a douchebag.

Edit:

well i'm like 5'9, which isn't REALLY "too" tall, but i'd still like to be a couple inches shorter. purely for aesthetic reasons. that's just me being picky.

THE FUCK???? ^ So by my being 6' 2" am I some sort of freak??

 

[Jordan~]

I'm 6'2", which my dad says is the ideal height. It's also how tall he is. I'm quite happy with it, but intensely suspicious of people who are taller than me. Why are they so tall? What are they hiding? People who are as tall as me or only slightly taller are the ones I find most attractive - 5'9" is too short, imo. That whole side of the family's pretty tall and kind of contemptuous of short people. I never really noticed how bizarre that is before.

Oh, right, a flaw if I've not met my quota - my little toes are all curled up and vestigial, like they're hiding from something.

 

[Cheeseumpuffs]

Why are they so tall? What are they hiding? People who are as tall as me or only slightly taller are the ones I find most attractive.

Totally agree.

In keeping with OP I must post a negative;

I'm still a douchebag.

 

[Dimensional Transition]

I'm a fucking annoying procrastinator who can't grow the balls to do what he wants to do and keeps whining about it to other people, without getting any further! This realization causing him to become even less self-assured, thus still not having enough balls to do whatever he wishes to, et cetera, et cetera. It's a vicious circle! :O

Also, 5"9 isn't too tall or too short, imo? I am around 6"0, and it's pretty much the exact height I wish to be.

 

[Roran]

So...I'm 6'3".........Being tall is annoying sometimes. I hate talking to people IN GENERAL, I procrastinate like it's an Olympic event, I suck at writing stories......, I'm pessimistic, cowardly, now I feel like a loser

 

[Cheeseumpuffs]

I'm still a douchebag PLUS just about everything everyone on this thread has said.

that sums up my entire existence

 

[Words]

I'm so stupid. I risk my entire future by making hasty, invalid yet simple assumptions.

 

[Starfishtea]

I wish I was taller than just 5'7. My 14 year old brother is 6'3. I don't know what happened to me lol. And I say ''and things'' too much. I finished almost all my sentences with ''and other things'' on my oral exam, and that's why I only got a 4 while my partner got a 5. I'm lazy and I rarely think about the consequences of anything. I always overthink simple things and make everything seem much more difficult and scary than it really is. I have really average grades at school and I won't get into a good shool next semester. And I don't even care because I have no ambitions or plans or dreams or anything at all. And I always act like a lunatic around people. My nickname at school was ''Space'' because the people in my class were convinced I was from another planet.

 

[Dimensional Transition]

Space is actually a really awesome nickname. I wish I had such an awesome nickname.

 

[Jordan~]

That's a problem with me, no nickname. But none of my friends have nicknames, except Saeed, who has thousands, all of which are just variants on his name like Sasa and Saseed.

 

[Cheeseumpuffs]

Space is actually a really awesome nickname. I wish I had such an awesome nickname.

Yeah, I would prefer Space to any of the nicknames I've had, they're usually just random spellings/pronunciations of my own name. But one I had that really sucked was a couple kids in elementary school called me "Hunchy" and sometimes the "Hunchback of Notre Dame" because back then, and still a little now, I had a problem with slouching.

 

[Dimensional Transition]

Aw. I think looking a bit hunchy is fairly normal for INTPs though. My neck sticks a little too much forward than how I'd like as well. But it's decreasing over time, especially since I've started working out.

 

[Moocow]

Physical problems: I slouch, I'm on my ass all the time, no amount of sunlight can darken my incandescent pallor, and I tend to claw at imperfections on my face with my long, sharp fingernails. Also I wear the same crappy plain clothes every day with utter disregard for fashion, wrinkles, holes, oversized etc.

Mental problems: I keep meeting people and then distancing myself from them hoping to avoid the responsibility, assertiveness, and consideration required to be a decent friend.
I get locked up in perfecting my own tiny little life while turning a blind eye to any actions that could potentially benefit the rest of the world.
All of the skills and hobbies I choose are aesthetic (though I see this as a good thing). Purely practical tasks are limited to caring for myself, my girlfriend, and my cat, with no aspirations for higher levels of innovation or achievement beyond my own comfort.
I tend to stop learning things the minute I can begin creating. Then the things I create are half-assed because I didn't finish practicing the techniques and learning about the tools.
I seem to spite my own rules and guidelines for living, only truly fulfilling them once I've given up on trying.
Most of my philosophy on life comes down to strategically quitting, (including sometimes quitting at quitting)
I've never had a real job and I don't want one.
I forget about holidays and birthdays.

 

[darude11]

I am forgetful/light-headed and bad at english (assuming english as foreign language).
I am not best in class.
I am not born leader, but peole want to prove me that I am.
I am often threated for things that I haven't done badly.
I am chaotic.
I am too sensitive on "alien" insult.
I am (apparently) egoistic.
I am addicted to informations (thats why I am sitting here all the day).
I have goal of pure evil to manipulate everybody around me (IRL).
I am too self-critic-ious.
I am shy.
I hate my past, and everybody included in it.
I am always percepted in public as "stranger".
I have no true nickname, all of them are because of the mistakes that destroyed my life.
I have never had any girlfriend (and boyfriend too, but I don't want boyfriend )
I am always misunderstood, because everybody things that I say "I am clever, bow my inteligence.", while I want to be understood as the average person, that is simply better in other traits than somebody else, who threats me as clever who wants everybody to prove his clevernes.
I am copying permanently jokes from internet and applying them IRL.
I, just like the moocow says above me, gving myself my own rules and living somehow in my own universe, where I threat informations as more important than the practical things, which leads me to...
I am bad at practical things. You give me something, I will 99% break it, or 1% loose it.

 

[GYX_Kid]

i do too much nothing, do one thing and fuck up everything

i plan mostly for something unrealistic that will never happen or that is too ridiculous

 

[ummidk]

Lots of stuff in this thread, plus I lose absolutely everything.

 

[smithcommajohn]

I hate virtually every aspect of myself.

 

[Dimensional Transition]

The one positive thing about this thread is that at least I know I'm not the only one who's really critical about himself.

 

[Starfishtea]

I'm actually sort of happy that my nickname is space now. My lastname sort of rhymes with the Norwegian word for rapist and it pretty much means violent man so.. I've had some other nicknames to. And I'm a nit slouchy to. And I'm a bit crosseyes and my two front teeth are huge compared to the rest. I look a lot younger than I am and I have to show id to watch 15+ movies at the cinema or to buy energy drinks. You have to be 14 btw.
I don't understand people and I only have like 4 friends. But that's ok, because I really can't handle being around people all the time. I'm a horrible hugger. I never ever feel bad when I've done something wrong to other people and I really enjoy bullying people. I'm not a good friend and I fail at being empathetic. I always just sit in my room all summer and that makes me forget how to behave around people.

 

[Jordan~]

I lie that none of my friends have nicknames except Saeed; we call Steven "Bad Man" and accuse him of any murders that are in the news.

 

[Smooch]

I have absolutely no talent/personality,

and I'm not good looking.

=) my only good aspect: I'm not in denial about my worthlessness


Why is there no thumbs up smiley????

I don't know about your talents, but I think you have a kind heart which leads me to believe that you have a wonderful personality.

Oh, and if you're the girl in your profile, you're quite beautiful.
