Agreed. But maybe they are OK with that being who they are?
Is that really an acceptable justification? "It's who I am."
Nay. But yeah, maybe you're right.
IDK.

There's a very fine line between pride in personal accomplishment and actual arrogance though. The lines do blur sometimes, and we can't fault everyone for having pride and confidence.
EDIT: Especially when it can easily be misinterpreted.

I really wouldn't consider pride and confidence the same. The lines may blur, but arrogance is just so completely negative.I feel like there's a very definable difference, really.
Arrogance ventures into just plain asshat territory.
Edit: Pride perhaps can be intertwined, I think. Just confidence is a word I'd use differently than arrogance.

Yes. But if arrogance is defined by the reluctance to conform to not irritate others, its not their fault. Why should we adjust for others. N if we end up alone then so be it. /shrug

I think that's a very simplified definition and takes away the negative value of "arrogance," which truly exists. I just fail at putting that into words. BUT.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
