View Full Version : Is it better to be original and weird than not original at all?

I have many personal motto's and one of my favorites is "Think Different" which I admit I stole from Apple. I am a weird person which is pointed out often by people I know. I like people and enjoy their company for the most part but normal people just tend to bore me. I tend to enjoy the company of weird people more than normal people mostly because they are more entertaining and interesting. What do you think?
Also I really like the speech from the Think Different commercial.



Here’s to the crazy ones.

The misfits.

The rebels.

The troublemakers.

The round pegs in the square holes.

The ones who see things differently.


They’re not fond of rules.

And they have no respect for the status quo.


You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them,

disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.

About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.

Because they change things.



They invent. They imagine. They heal.

They explore. They create. They inspire.

They push the human race forward.


Maybe they have to be crazy.

How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?
Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written?
Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?

We make tools for these kinds of people.



While some see them as the crazy ones,
we see genius.

Because the people who are crazy enough to think
they can change the world, are the ones who do.

I always try to be different, not just to stand out, and make people remember me, but also to build relationships with people.

Very few will seek out someone who's just like everyone else.

It's better to be original. If it weren't, then the only music in the world would be rap music.

It's better to be original. You don't want to end up like one of these (http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/1444/guidotools.jpg) d-bags.

I'm not like most people my age.

I'm classic.

This is the best post I've seen from a Merch-Table. Originality and thinking outside of the box are what I value most in life.

Its good to be weird and original, The world would be a boring place if these people didn't exist.

I think it's fine to be different, if that's what you really like. What I hate is people trying to be different just to be different.
