Are you judged...

by people because of...


your looks?

the way you talk?

what you wear?

something else?

 

Answer the question I asked then I'll answer yours.

 

Having spent most of my life being judged by my work, I've reached the stage where I'm judged by my age.
Not really liking the change...

 

Of course I am, who isn't?

 

I don't really care about the people who judge me based on superficial things. The people who judge me based on my actions are the people whose opinions I value.

 

Everybody is, but I can come up with a list for myself.

People think I'm a huge stoner, because I'm really, really laid back. I say "yeah" weird, kinda like Bam Margera. Oh and I wear girl's jeans, so people think I'm gay and I have visible tattoos.

Also, I'm very quiet when not around close friends, so people automatically assume I'm an asshole, which in this case of judging, they are right. Because, I don't like anyone really besides my close friends.

I really don't care what people think, so, meh. They can go fuck themselves.

 

As fellow Mobilian Rich Boy so eloquently says in Get dat Paper “People underestimate me ‘cause I’m coming from Alabama.”

 

Yes I am

 

I get judged on so many things in so many ways it's hard to list them all. And usually it's the littlest things people get absolutely livid over. For example, my typing must be absolutely perfect at all times or I'm a monster worse than a child molester and am absolute scum. For some reason, spelling seems to be an indication of intelligence for some people, when it's not a real indication of intelligence, just skill. I believe but am uncertain that Einstein was a poor speller and had poor handwriting.

There are many other small ways I'm judged as well. And usually the reaction is over the top and ten times worse than the small thing I'm judged for, which are often things I wouldn't judge other people on myself.

And I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't. People often make demands on me that I be the way they want me to be for themselves, but nothing I do makes people happy,, no matter how hard I try. I i be myself it's no good and I'm a monster. If I try to be the way they want me to be It's no good and I'm a monster. They tell me that there are all kinds of rules that I have to follow and if i don't follow them then I'm a monster.

But if I follow the rules they want me to follow I'm a monster. But many of them also don't follow the same rules they claim I have to follow but don't consider themselves to be monsters, only people that don't follow their rules.

But then again, if I follow their rules then I'm somehow doing it wrong anyway and I'm a monster.

But that's life and there's nothing I can do about but be myself anyway and if people just can't stand that then that's their fucking problem.

Essentially it's like what Shrek says, I don't have a problem with the world, it's the world that has the problem with me.

 

Yeah, what she said.

 

Here come da judge!

 

I judge you based on your posting nekkid pictures of yourself, and I think you're a WONderful person

 

I am silently judged and judging at all times.

 

The "judgement" of others, who are irrelevant to begin with, are of no concern.

 

Yes, I am. As a native West-BY-GOD-Virginian, I'm automatically assumed to be stupid and inbred. I swear I met a woman in Hollywood who was surprised that I wore shoes. I have all my own teeth and noever slept with my sister and have running water and electricty and everything.

 

The important thing, is that my motto is "those people can be fucked".

Unless I need something from them.

 

Being black, the answer is pretty obvious.

But if they don't want to get to know me from the outside, it's no skin off my nose.

 

Ok, I had a person stare at me while I was eating an apple as a snack at work. I saw her glancing at mea few times and every time I'd look out she'd pretend she wasn't looking. After I rung her up and set her on her way she leans in and says, "You really should think about a diet." Took all I could to smile, and say "oh, thank you. You have a good day."...

 

Yeah, because obviously if you're overweight, you shouldn't eat anything at all, ever. Why is the world so full of busybodies?

 

Yep.

 

Of course. I take steps to avoid "judgemental" situations, and spend most of my time chasing said judges around with large wooden implements.

 

I'm glad we agree.

 

Me: "You should really think about not telling other people how to live before somone puts a boot in your ass, lady."

 

See, I could never do that... I may think it, but I couldn't ever actually say that.

 

Start. It's very cathartic to tell people to fuck off when they actually have it coming.

 

I'd try to, but my anger would overwhelm my speech center, and I'd be like.

"What the..?! That's so goddamn ru... listen lady.... NNG!!".

 

Everyone is judged, and everyone judges.

 

Then if she pulls that shit again, just give her a big grin and say in your nicest voice. "Yes? May I help you with something?" Keep smiling until she looks away.
