Do you think you are an interesting Person

[Duck Sandwich]

I strive to be as manly and awesome as possible. On weekdays, I work at my full-time construction job, where I sometimes get to lift heavy stuff and hit stuff with a hammer. On weekends, I train in mixed martial arts. When it comes to non-physical stuff, gaming is my hobby of choice. I especially enjoy challenging, manly games like Contra, Devil May Cry, and Mega Man. While I listen to a few bands from various genres of music, I mainly listen to the likes of Judas Priest, Motley Crue, and Megadeth. I'm all about improving myself, achieving the glorious feeling that comes from overcoming a tough challenge, and giving a helping hand to people who need it. I give blood once in a while.

That's pretty much the extent of what I do. My range of interests are pretty damn narrow, but hey - quality over quantity. I almost never watch TV/movies, I don't care much about concerts (I'd only go if one of the aforementioned bands was coming to my hometown), and I'd rather cook my own food than go out to a restaurant. Some idiots people would even say that I'm antisocial. But then again, those are the same people that think that the epitome of social experience is going to some party and getting drunk/laid.

Short answer No probably not.

Lets see i dont drink do drugs or smoke. I rather avoid making conversation because i dont know what to say even before i talk to the person.

I'm much in the same boat as you. I avoid doing anything that would have adverse effects on my physical fitness. As far as talking to people goes, if you don't know anything about them, you might want to try talking about funny/interesting stories you heard in the news ("Did you hear about that company that's making flying cars and selling them for $250000?")

 

[Koeryn]

Short answer, I doubt you would find me interesting.

Long answer, I can be that creepy quiet person who just listens to conversations and ghosts his way around the room unless someone starts talking to me, or I find a conversation that particularly interests me. I talk about firearms more than anything else when I DO speak, as they're a passion of mine. I don't drink much, have never been drunk (partly on account of I don't drink much, partly on account of a naturally high tolerance}, I don't smoke, I don't have cheap hobbies (shooting, martial arts, I used to do aggressive inline and skateboard}.


EDIT= What the fucking fuck was that fucking Captcha/ Who the HELL thought that was a good idea/

 

[SckizoBoy]

snip of interest (no, not euphemistic)

Well, you may wax lyrical about stats and 'classical' music as much as you wish and I will sit enthralled, before arrogantly nitpicking what you've said apart! /jk (I enjoy pure maths and baroque music just to clarify.)

OT: Uh, depends how long you've known me for. I'm a fairly diffident person, so I'm not going to go out of may to look interesting when we meet for the first time. Know me for a couple months though and you'll discover the following:

- I quote randomly and out of context (films, TV etc. and usually very inappropriately)
- I make random exclamations ('*gasp* BUBBLES!!' being a popular one)
- I enjoy writing and talking about my writing (historical fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, the usual drivel)
- I enjoy a good bit of violence now and then (Muay Thai and kenjutsu)
- My grinning can get very scary (I've been reliably informed that I grin like a sadistic torturer... *shrug*)
- I have an awesome lab coat
- My official label in the insect lab is 'Factshitter'

So, I am interesting... just to the slightly crazed/eccentric individual (or perhaps to my future profiler for when the murders begin).

 

[Hitokiri_Gensai]

depends on who you are, i can talk about Japanese history for DAYSSSSS and bore people to death, but im also a girl into guns and cars, so that tends to interest people. Who knows. Sometimes i can be WAY overly serious so i dunno

 

[RandallJohn]

I'm very interesting. And that's both in the positie and negative connotations.

 

[Monkfish Acc.]

Nah.

Why would I be. I'm a rancorous, crippled asshole. I don't like doing anything at all ever with anyone. I'm not witty or knowledgeable or smart. I'm just a miserable dick with a foul temper.

And yet my useless shitty friends won't leave me the fuck alone. What is up with that.

 

[Hiikuro]

Depends on which side of me we're talking about.

My social side is completely uninteresting. I have no interesting stories about my life to tell, and I never really do anything worth talking about. Though I am fairly laid back and childish/playful socially (given the right environment), which people I am with seem to enjoy. Though, most of the time I am completely silent socially (when in groups), and don't actively partake at all.

But as soon as you delve into either my philosophical or creative side, a door is opened into a vast and completely foreign world. No matter how much I could reveal, I would never be able to finish. Those I've talked to about it seem very fascinated by it, but I never like to actively push myself onto others so I avoid talking about it much at all.

In short, I keep my interesting side to myself to avoid bothering people with it.

 

[(witty name here)]

Yes, I can honestly say that I am an interesting person. I absolutely adore american football and the thrill I get while playing, but I also enjoy a good book every now and then (I <3 my Kindle) at my age, I actively think about the world around me, have an opinion about various ideological and metaphysical ideas, (Big words make me feel special) and I dont just let people stuff ideas into my head, I take the time to figure things out for myself and make informed and intelligent decisions. In addition to this, people have told me that I am a gifted athlete and that I have a good albeit self deprecating sense of humor. I sometimes stumble over my words and get angry wayyy to easily. overall, i'm a boss

 

[(witty name here)]

I read your post right after posting my post, and let me just say my good sir, that you are now my hero just for the simple fact that you had so many rainbows on one peice of paper.

 

[ChildishLegacy]

It's odd that the people that seem to think that they're interesting don't have much to say about themselves, and those with low self esteem who say they're not interesting have a whole lot to say to other people about themselves. What does this tell us? xD

I'd say I'm not interesting to your average Joe, because I don't go out and drink or anything like that, I play a lot of video games, I'm a massive science nerd and I'm a bit of a social recluse. However I can really get into deep conversations if people are up for it and talk for hours, which I really do prefer to getting pissed every night and acting like a primate. I think as long as the people I know and trust, the people that I can happily sit around in a select group with and talk for hours without getting bored find me interesting, I really don't care if other people find a nerd like me interesting.

 

[Lukeje]

Other people seem to to think that I'm an interesting person. I still don't entirely know why.

 

[hooksashands]

It really depends on the setting and the people. You might not be full of confidence when you're sitting in an assembly talking to a bunch of drones, but if you ever work up the cojones to tell people funny stories about your life, you'll be surprised how many gasps and laughs you draw.

Then there are the ones who think they're special, single-produced prototypes and everyone should just love them to bits because they shout alot and goad you into doing stupid things. Avoid these people at all costs, and if you are one of them... Get over yourself.

I can be fun, but I would say I'm pretty quiet and pedestrian for the most part

 

[Artina89]

It depends. I am more known for being "random", whether or not that goes hand in hand with being "interesting" is dependent on who I am talking to. For example, I was talking to a couple of friends of mine about BSE and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, then started singing Brains! by Voltaire. Now, my friend, who studied the same courses as me at uni, found this discussion interesting and we both got invested in the topic, then she started laughing when I started singing, whereas my other friend, who at the time was doing a course in river and coastal defence engineering, couldn't really care less about what we were talking about, and then looked at me as though I had suddenly sprouted antlers when I started singing.

 

[Rule Britannia]

I'm funny and entertaining and generally awesome, I guess it helps that I live in Canada and have a British accent....this thread appears to be full of narcissists (I'm one too!)

 

[TornadoFive]

People have different opinions of what is "interesting". I could have a conversation about gaming with one friend and they might find my views interesting. The same conversation with another friend might not go as well.

Everyone has something that they will find interesting. You might be a complete bore to one person, because you have nothing in common, but you might be a joy to talk to from someone else's perspective.

 

[1mike1000]

If you say that you "think" you're interesting or "you don't know," then trust me, you're not. If you're an interesting person you should be confident enough to say so. If you are unsure then there is no way that you are.

 

[Tsekatsu]

Yeah, I'm a fairly interesting person, if you get to know me that is.especially when I'm around friends.

 

[Infernai]

Well, I can make people laugh, that's a start. If one of my good (Not bestest) friends says that I'm interesting, I guess I am. Edit: to prove that I am a human, I had to describe YouTube. let's just say...

Haha...VG Cats. It's funny because somebody else knows that comic exists besides me.

OT: Nah, I'm not an interesting person at all really. I can socialize, yeah, but i wouldn't call my life or even me interesting.

 

[Sariteiya]

OHGODNO.

I have a crippling fear that everyone who's friends with me is doing so out of politeness. I worry all the time that I'm super boring. I know for certain that I have a bit of a boring life, (no car, little money = not doing a hell of a lot with my time), but I fear sometimes I am boring through and through and shall be forevermore.

It's kind of nice to see I'm not the only one who's afraid they're boring though. Actually, apparently Charles Schultz (of Peanuts fame) feared largely the same thing his whole life, that he was boring, no one liked him, etc, and he wrote and drew the most successful newspaper comic ever, so I guess anyone can feel that way.

 

[General Ken8]

It really depends who you ask. Everyone says that I'm the most laid back person they know, and probably think I'm boring, but I have a few things that make me somewhat individual. One is I have a huge vocabulary, which most people are a little weirded out by since I'm an American teenager using words like "dour" and "circumstantial" (for example).
Also, I play Yu-Gi-Oh, and do all sorts of other things most people would only do if they wanted to be branded forever as a "loser".
Last, I treat EVERYONE nice, which is at least something to say where I live. I'm either neutral or friends with every single person in my community, at least that I know of.
