I personallly feel that having one unique dimension to your charecter is immensely benitiftial to oneself. I hate people who follow the crowd too an extent where lining them up next too each other creates a little clone army. So what do you do too stick out from the crowd? Or do you even attempt to be different? This is meant to be a mirror thread to the High School Popularity thread :)
I never followed the crowd and I let myself be me, even if I was called names, such as ugly, *****, weird, goth, emo, freak, etc. I just remained as who I was. I'm not going to change for others. I'm different in my own way and I embrace that and I embrace who I am as a person. No need to change for others to like me.

Aww I'm sorry you had to go through that, people say some terrible things :(
There was a phase in my life where I was called creepy a lot. Thankfully, I grew out of that image.
I don't know. I guess most people in my school recognize me for my taste in music, and the fact that I don't wear douchebag clothing, like 90% of the guys in my school do. These are all things I've always done though, I've never tried to be unique or stand out on purpose.
I think if you are intentionally trying to be different, that a whole different way to follow the crowd. It's like the uprise of gothic styles or modern Indie music, which really isn't independent anymore, it's considered just another genre. Just do what you feel is right in any given circumstance.
I dont really try anymore. When I was forming my being of course I did some trying but once I found myself there isnt much else I could do besides be myself. If I'm unique, thats awesome, if i'm not, than that kinda sucks but theres nothing wrong with it.
Consciously attempting not to be like everyone else is just as bad as consciously going with the crowd. If you're doing what you want to do, that's all you can do. Confomity or nonconformity is not what you do, but why you do it.

I wish I was there to beat the **** out of them, I hate when somebody looks down on other people.

I think you explained everything in my life, except sofar iv been trying to FOLLOW the crowd eh about a year ago i stopped and sorta became my own person, but i still am a tiny bit attached, wish i could follow your example.
Also, they kinda still treat me kinda the same way you explained, but i dont really care iv got a really good group of buddies that except me for who i am and i accept them, and im fine with just them.

Sometimes. Other times, it's pretty much "I shop at Hot Topic because that makes me unique."
Also being the only "Metalhead" at school works I suppose. Along with my attitude and solitary nature. I dont get made fun of though, more like fear and sometimes curiousty.
But still I always go with the "scare" option, simply because its amusing watching my stupid peers look at me as if I was gonna eat them.

He/she explained mines pretty much in a nutshell.
Who cares if I'm an outcast, I'm in existence and the ones insulting me are going to have to deal with it.
I don't try and be different. I just like being myself. I guess some people would call me unique because I follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. I also do not watch any movies rated R or play any games rated M. I don't drink; I don't smoke; I don't swear. I help others in need and care about everyone, regardless of what they believe in, what they look like, how they act, etc.

Wait, you're not going to eat them? :(
If I did that, the school security and police wouldn't hesitate to beat me and arrest me. :(

Weird. I'm the same way. Sometimes it really sucks, but it's worth it in the end, right? I want to be me, whether or not people accept it.
Simple, nothing. You don't have to do a single thing to be unique except be human. Humanity is the genesis of individuality because, even genetically, every single person on the face of the planet that has ever been or will ever be will have some flaw that makes them different from every other human being on the planet.

I express myself almost solely through jokes and sarcasm. That being said, people who don't pick up on that tend to think a lot of really weird things about me. :x

It may suck, but being happy with who you are as a person and not changing for someone just to have the person like you is a greater feeling. Besides, changing just to have people like you seems silly.
