I really screwed myself up in high school trying to be all things to all people just so that I could be popular. I found that the harder I tried to be popular, the less popular I became. Now that I am myself, and the outside matches the inside, I find that popularity comes naturally. As you can see, I am not liked by everyone here at Psycho-Babble, and that's more than okay with me now.
Deneb, are you allowed to show anger at home?
