"Many people feel that mass acceptance and smooth socialization are desirable life paths for a young adult... Many people are often wrong... Don't bother being nice. Being popular and well liked is not in your best interest. Let me be more clear; if you behave in a manner pleasing to most, then you are probably doing something wrong. The masses have never been arbiters of the sublime, and they often fail to recognize the truly great individual. Taking into account the public's regrettable lack of taste, it is incumbent upon you not to fit in."

I can't argue with that one bit, but I'm quite unashamed of being an intellectual elitist.

YEH!!!!! I'm right I was always right, hey wait, people AGREE with me....does that mean I'm slipping and becoming a norm??? eeeeeeeep!

I never had a choice in the popular and well liked stakes (at school anyway). I think I was more infamous than popular at Uni (and since).

Of course, this doesn't take into account the difference between being disliked for something worthwhile (say, your beliefs) and being disliked because you're just kind of an asshole.

Guess it depends on what you want out of your circa eighty years or so on this planet, doesn't it?
