Rebellion

[NB79]

If you dare just share an opinion based on your spiritual beliefs on a forum you could get some serious backlash, i guess that is sort of a rebel, that so little action can get you even fired from your job nowadays.

It's ironic isn't it? We are now rebels for being individuals. Having likes and preferences. For having traditions. All are scrutinized and judged for no other reason other than "it's offensive to me" claims.

I chose to use that statement based on the OP saying that he built loud stereo systems, something I shared with them in my past.

SHE built loud stereos lol.

Agreed.

However,
The opposite does happen, also.

Some ppl focus on self-actualisation, whereas others find security via becoming a groupthink junkie.
Go figure.

Looks (sounds) heavy duty

So what are the societal conditions used or assumed to make such a determination? Those who seemingly "violate" or defy presumed societal norms? Note the word "presumed"

Indeed.

Spoiler: facetiousness

My dancing in the street in my underpants may seem non-conforming, but is it reeeely, hmmm?

It is actually all about cultural relativity.
Where I come from, everybody does it.

I like cursing, too!

Spoiler: joke

This is a favourite mine:
"May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits!"

I heard it first from the TV series "M.A.S.H", and was said by Klinger, I believe.

Oh, you mean the other sort of cursing.

There's another sort?

 

[RemyZee]

I didn't know I was unusual in school. I tried to distinguish myself by the way I installed my shoe laces. After I left home, my rebellion against bedtime ran over fifty years, and my biography immediately started becoming steadily more unusual, not in rebellion but just by following logic instead of the herd.

How does one install one's shoelaces in a way that's distinguishes one's self?

 

[RemyZee]

In truth. I think I have always been on a rebellious mission, in my head. Though that attributes to my very immature outlook of a 5 year old, that I never really let go of fully. The attitude evolved with me physically aging. But I never really grew up, mentally.

The irony is that I am JUST NOW discovering alot of 90's punk, grunge, and rock years later. Stuff teenage me would of 100% loved.

Though it does make me realize how much of a bubble I've lived in. How much I missed out on in my mission to give everyone, and everything, the proverbial middle finger.

I would love to be introduced to grunge as an adult
you're lucky to experience it for the first time.

There's another sort?

I'd like to know what "another sort" of cussing is! Cursing is one of my special interests and I'm always looking for a new way to do it. Hahaha just kidding.

Damn that's funny.
