oh yeah...something random that was bothering me....

if you want people to get to know you better and see that you are a person, and not just what they see at first and assume. you MUST NOT live up to the stereotype they believe they are seeing.
if you think they see you as a beligerant asshole, but you want them to see that you have feelings, and are a really great person and fun to be around, you really, really should not treat everyone like a beligerant asshole would.
i'm sorry if the person i'm referring to reads this, or if anyone figures out who it is. but i've been meaning to say something, but i'm not sure i have to guts to say it straight out, so i'm testing my ideas out here.
