What defines you?

Miakal

Today when I logged on my AIM and that little box appears with news and crap it said, "AIM buddy icons define you!"

Isn't this sad?

Don't you find it that people let themselves be defined by the silliest shit?

I hate people who define themselves by clothing, tattoos, and piercings. None of these things are special or unique. Clothes, tattoos, and piercings are a purchase NOT a character trait.

I embrace a new age. An age of fascism. An age where people are defined by WHO they are, not what they own or pretend to be.

Sure, but that's not to say that a person's style is not often a direct symbol of their personality. I'm not a shallow person by any means, but I admit to openly judging a great deal of people based on the way they look, simply because it's easy and often effective.

A person who I can tell has spent a grand on their outfit and hair... much of the time this person is just sickeningly superficial, and not worth my time. On the flip side, there are plenty of kids at my school who haven't washed/cut their hair in a year, dress in oversized, faded black Slipknot T-shirts... these kids are usually really anti-social, or at least just awful at conversing. That - sloppiness - to me, is a character trait.
