Interesting read. Just wondering if it seems like more primate politics to you or a valuable lesson?

Well i am in college, but my rommates call me a (i'm a guy), so with that said, i am quite popular. Typically, once i mention or show my art it 'seals the deal' so to speak. Most women I meet like me because i am outgoing, but once they see I am an artist and actually an intellegent person, they stick to me like glue.

So yea, coming back to my room with 3 girls all the time is how I earned the '' tag from my roomates.


edit: after reading the article, it makes perfect sense to me. People think more highly of you if they readily 'like' you, regardless if you are more or less qualified then the guy next to you. I think that is more of a social habit then anything else.

I am very popular in college, to the point people know me and I don't know them. Its because I am kind of crazy and weird. lol

[cotron]

dudes i am sooooooooooooooooooooooo popular, people pay me just to hang out with me. and I totally bang like 100 chicks a week. and i have great self esteem! it's the best!!!

[Slash]

[DavePalumbo]

[corky13]

pha nothing against love and longer lasting relationships ;)


Im Popular in my shool because im obviously the only "Metalhead" ^^ i dont know if there others but im the only one who looks like one ^^ all others wear bright and shiney "hiphop" clothes ^^ its totaly funny. i feel like a one-man-army in enemy territories ^^

but i guess this is the negative form of popularity eh ? ^^

[DSillustration]

seeing as i work by myself....
its pretty safe to say i am DEFINITELY the friggin' coolest!

[CruShTinbOX]

I'm so popular everyone I've ever met knows who I am.

[Shamagim]

Im not, im a short fused arrogant with excentric tastes.....but i have a cat :)

[magicgoo]

A bunch of popular artists??? How did that happen!??

I thought we were all self-loving, egocentric, pretensious bastards. I know I am, therefore I've got no friends :teeth:

[el coro]

my coworkers hate me.-c36

[Sady]

I can´t find a job regardless of my overwhelming popularity.

I'm so popular that one time I flooded every hospital in the city with fainted girls because I accidentally smiled too big!

Everyone at high school knew my name, EVERYONE! maybe it was because everyone was out to physically beat me, but hey define popular?

well....everytime i met a person who said that (s)he is crazy or/and weird, it was the opposite, they were boring and average...

people who really are crazy or whatever don't see themselves as such, because they think it's the normal way to be like that...

now i am opening my defense shield around this post... >:D

[Steinmetz]

well you have to sort these kids out somehow :teeth:
defense shields :perv:

[dogfood]

Chicks dig me, because I rarely wear underwear and when I do it's usually something unusual. But now I know why I have always lost women to guys like you. I mean, it's not just the uniform. It's the stories that you tell. So much fun and imagination.
All hail John Winger.

I agree with you, but that was back in college and I was a complete loony!
Now I am older, when I look back to myself, I just crack up and wonder how did I manage to be like that! :D

[bengonzalez]

I'm so popular I have kids hanging on me all the time. Wait a minute those are my kids. Shit I'm not popular I'm a Dad.

As to work well I'm a recluse but it seems that every one knows me calling me by name and saying 'Hi'. Maybe they think I'm crazy and that's how they all know me. But I've never had a promotion. Oh well, Still not popular.

HAHAHA.....yeah!

[darth massacre]

I'm not popular at all...I just get paid....for nothing.

hehe, yeah, we get paid good money to sit on our asses. do you draw while you have nothing else to do at work as well?

[XXXJanitorman]

I'm not popular at work. Its not that I hate everyone at work, but I hate meeting new people. I'm best friends with one person at work, and thats because she kept talking to me since I wouldn't talk to anyone else. We both act like idiots, and have a great time. By the look some people give me they think that I'm stupid. But, I'd rather have a Ho-down to the twangy country music with the mexican woman I work with, and my best friend, than be uptight and get along with everyone. (I work at a Golden Corral, so it would be sacreligious if there wasn't a ho-down every so often!)

I don't really care for popularity, I just want to make good art, so I'm anti-whateverthefuckyouthinkiscoolsodon'tfuckingtalktom e.

[JERI]

Don't think I'm popular, infamous is more likely. I'm the class rep for my physiology class and people recognise me as the guy who sound like a yank when he addresses the class.

*Pssst... You have stalkers.*

[Torgovix]

I'm a bit of a recluse and have a small group of friends yet everyone knows me. Like a handful of friends and hundreds of acquantinces.

People find me approachable or something. :yawn:

[FLenG]

i can count my friends by the number of fingers on my hand. hah!
