Maybe you have some feud going on with Julius that I'm not aware of. I'm just responding to his post in this thread. I wouldn't go so far as he did as to say a bad boy necessarily leads a useless and meaningless existence. But a lot of them do seem to have problems managing their lives. The most typical bad boy that I know off the top of my head recently lost his job for failing a drug test, for example. Flounting societal conventions is not always to your advantage.
You seem kind of sensitive about this subject. Do you consider yourself a bad boy?
I don't think I was defining what a man is. I was just pointing out that the term is bad "boy", not bad "man", so that seems to suggest immaturity by definition.[/QUOTE]
I agree with this part right here.
Too many people associate the badboy personality with being bad people. Sure there are badboys that are generally bad people but not all of them are. I emit bad boy tendencies. I have a tattoo, earring, fight, drink, smoke, been arrested, suspended, expelled, bad grades, short tempered, and don't have too many friends that can put up with my attitude. You name it.
But i never disrespect people, I never pick on the weak, I am respectful and courteous, generous, I will admit my faults when wrong, etc.
But i have a rule, you disrespect me the first time i warn you. If it gets to a second time, well i warned you already the first time. I have no problem voicing my opinion if i believe im right or being treated unfairly by my teachers, boss, or anyone. Which coincides with if i'm ever wrong, i will humble accept that consequences as well.
I am not a bad person, but i will stand up for myself.
