They saw my PEACE badge on the coat..

.. and those people, who I met in the pub, started incredibly laughing and tellin me things like... woooooo, hippies... are you ok??
somebody could be probly sad or angry about it.. but.. hm.. I don't know.. who cares?
has anything like that ever happened to you too? if it has, what did you tell to those people and how did you feel about it..?

 

Those are some fucking awesome cupcakes in your sig.

 

hehe, thanks, but that's not what I was asking for..

 

If i met you in a pub i probably would think the same way.. I would not be as rude as too give you any crap though ( i think buying you a drink would be a lot better..but thats another story ) I would ask you your point of view though.


Personaly i would not wear the 'peace symbol' because it does not realy reflect all of my beliefs and i think it is assoiated with CND and i don't believe in most if not all they believe in .. though the notion of finding peace i can go along with if that does not sound contradictory.. i realise their will always be warfare thats just the way it is , right ?.

 

probly yes...

 

Their is not a badge that reflects my point of view..and if any friggin person says swastika i will personaly well just fucking ignore you ... so i can't realy say how it is too wear your feelings on your sleeve, or chest or were ever you wear your badge ?.. but i would ask why you do it ?... when most of the time people will just get the wrong impression .. see i understand a bit about people like yourself (i think ) and i still find it strange ?.

 

stare blankly at them

 

hey, wearing that badge is like.. if somebody wears badges with rude boy as a symbol of SKA, or with tongue as a symbol of the rolling stones I mean.. I wear because I feel being a hippie and because I simply don't want wars and I want world peace... that's why I wear it.. and it doesn't make me feeling bad or ridiculous that some other people have fun about it... I can just smile and say... "does it matter?" and if somebody would tell me, "yes, it does", I would probly leave.. and it hasn't happened yet... so.. I'm just who I am, and if somebody wouldn't like me just because of my badge, I won't care

 

yeah, that's what I do quite often..

 

I wouldn't care... when you wear a badge, or a shirt with some symbol or text on it, you'll get reactions sometimes... sometimes good, sometimes bad... if you don't want that, don't wear badges. Sometimes I'll start a discussion about it and sometimes I don't, just depends on the situation, whether I feel like it and whether I think I have any chance at all of getting anywhere.

 

I know all of this.. and I just wanted do write here, what happened to me... and I really didn't want to make an intelectual discussion from it... but thanks for your posts, though I admit, they make me feel as the smallest person of the world.. you sound so intelligent.. too much..

 

would that be anywere with the conversation or anywere close to the other persons bedroom or couch ?.

 

Lol, just the conversation... I'm just not interested in bedroom/couch activities, haven't been for many years.

 

It would be so nice if you could fit all that on a badge .. but sadly you can't .. this is why i would ask you (jana) and any one questions .. did i say i might be laughing ? no i would just be curious... i have had my own 'personal growth' i don't laugh at people now.. only comedians .

 

shucks and darn it.....

 

so it would be ok, of course I would answer you, it's all right.. but the problem is, that some people don't even listen to what you're tellin them, much less that they could ask your opinions or so..

 

of course, i would hope you asked me questions as well as answered them .. i try and listen. Somebody told me only yesterday .. its better to listen and not agree than never listen at all..you might just learn something new. I doubt if that was their own original thought (probably pinched it from somewere) but heck it made sense to me.

 

hmm..

 

'hmm' thats either you pondering what the hell i am talking about or 'hmm' that makes sense.. going by the i am thinking you agree ?
