I often nom on the idea of whether or not it is appropriate to act like a total spazzy excited ferret in front of some people. The idea of finding a selection of people to not act like my favorite thing is rather difficult to comprehend though! Easy as it is to find people to slot into the 'not appropriate to be silly round' section of seats... I sure dont find myself comfortable unless I am spazzing joyfuly. There is a certain congruence in another simular idea though; that of judgeing your audience in the first place (Yeah I am so awesome I think of people as an audience; it's totaly not a figure of speach. ;3)
I see a lot of people acting like asses or brats, and wonder whether or not I should take this into consideration when I hear stuff from them. After all, I am absolutely ridiculous most of the time; why would anyone listen to me along those lines? I think about assigning conditions like 'this guys a fucking dick' or 'this one's a prude ass', and sometimes even 'I adore this bloody kitteh'. After a little while of pondering, I find myself wondering why I give a damn what people are in the first place. I mean... A mean person could be nice to me right? Just like a best friend could make meh wanrah get some more piercings (In a sexy spot, like a pro.) When I think of this, I find myself thinking that establishing conditions to view certain people in... is as foolish as closing your mind to prejudice. Despite it's seemingly efficient and lovely easing of slotting things into a rational place in your mind, it just doesn't seem righty for me to do.
There is so much shit spewed from all these people who are constantly fed bullshit, it's pretty tempting to keep your attention low after a lame high-horse impression; but I think I might not be judging people's ideas by my opinions anymore, just the merit of the idea itself. Still though, this leaves a final question: why judge some one in the first place if you are just going to treat their ideas and words with equal respect equivalent to every one else's?
Notice that taking some one's words at face value does not imply thinking any different of that asshole who's proven his-or-her(HIR?) self to be a dick. Immah only suggesting keeping your ears perked for good stuff... Not forgetting the place people have put themselves in, be they kind and dear friends, or total dicks in a blue waffle of stuck-to-the-sheets pain.
Let's see how being a free-idea hippy interacts with my normally bad ass 'I don't give a damn what you have to say prude!' attitude. Aheehee :3!
