Dealing with Peculiarity

It all starts when your parents name you “Peculiar”. I met a guy named Peculiar once, and I totally empathize with his parents. They were spot on with the name. No other name could have done justice. Any time Peculiar walked into a room, without turning to see him, you’d know he was there.

It is peculiar what you remember when you’re not trying. Luck has a peculiar habit of favoring those who don’t depend on it. Ones life is peculiar to one’s own when one has invented it. It is peculiar quality of a hypocrite to perceive the faults of others and to forget his own.

If someone wrote it and it had a peculiar twist, I’ve read it. People say of me ‘He’s peculiar.’ They do not understand me. If they did they would say so oftener and with emphasis. You’re reading this doing your best to find out where I’m going with this. Stop trying, embrace my weirdness.

I’ve got a very peculiar sort of fame, based on being President of Banter Republic. It doesn’t have the lifestyle people expect. My life is painfully boring. The kind you want to pull your hair out every five minutes. But contrary to widely held beliefs, I have come to discover that boring is good.

Every man is said to have his peculiar ambition. The keyword there is “Man” seeing as women have no ambition. For most, their goal is to be wife to an ambitious man. Whilst this might sound oddly romantic in their heads, it’s a horror show in reality. Dear woman, go get yourself some ambition. It’s cheap.

By and large, women have a faith and morality peculiar to themselves; they believe in the reality of everything that serves their interests and their passions. Sometimes they push you away when they need you the most. Don’t be mad when they call you weird. Being called weird is like being called a limited edition.

  1. How is boring good?

    Eeh. But these days there’s a class of women with ambition, and they are many, just not as many as those who cling to ambitious men😅

    Yes, we have to embrace your weirdness!
