You have to be older to understand those insecurities. The bullies know that they can intimidate and most of us allow it. It takes time to understand how they work and how work. You're right, those of us not ina position oif wealth or physical power have to grow up a bit to learn not to give in to either. Getting into a fist fight with Wayne Darling on the school bus was the most stupid thing anyone could do. But even he had to respect a direct shot to the groin after bloodying your nose..I was mostly a likeable kid but being insecure, I picked up some unlikeable habits to feel more secure. I would go back and recognize everyone has insecurities and there's no need to try and be somebody else, especially when that somebody else isn't likeable.
They say the best thing to do is to punch a bully in the nose. A smart bully will stay away from a fight they can win, but not come away unscathed. It's the ones that enjoy being scathed that are the problem...AKA PSYCHOS.You have to be older to understand those insecurities. The bullies know that they can intimidate and most of us allow it.

Disco.... Not!What era or genre of music do you listen to that most friends and family do not or will not listen to?

LOL Again GFR was IMO incredibly underrated. I did a six hour rib smoke this weekend and they were of course on my playlistDisco.... Not!
I'm all over the place but have no reservations with guilty pleasures that actually include some disco (a few Abba, songs, Kung Fu Fighting)...
On the musical front, I spent the other morning catching up on some Grand Funk Railroad (can't remember what inspired that).

I'm a fan of most music. My wife and I have the same taste except for one genre which i love and she does not. Ska/Punk. Rancid might be my favorite band ever.What era or genre of music do you listen to that most friends and family do not or will not listen to?

I'm not familiar with Rancid so I just "demanded" that Alexa play me some Rancid... Definitely hear the ska punk hybrid in there, and like so far... I prefer punk but have enjoyed doses of ska in the past (Mighty, Mighty Boss Tones come to mind).I'm a fan of most music.

No tear in my beer shit for me...I will listen to anything except:
Disco! (I have never worn platform shoes, makeup, or a man-purse. I have never looked up lovingly at a disco ball.......
(c)RAP
hip-hop
I sometimes listen to country but wife doesn't like.
To me country seems right when I'm fishing for catfish.
and your family and friends won't listen to that?I'm way to predictable.
Rock.
50's to today.
Some pop, some country, not much country.
I just saying I'm too predictable.and your family and friends won't listen to that?
Their album "Out Come The Wolves" is fantastic. Almost every song is good.I'm not familiar with Rancid so I just "demanded" that Alexa play me some Rancid...

Time Bomb played second, I know that therefore knew Rancid all along.
Just listened to some. Music is good, not sure about the lyrics.Their album "Out Come The Wolves" is fantastic. Almost every song is good.
I honestly don't think it's humanly possible to like all punk. My guess is most of us novice punk fans would like similar "punk pieces"... Then their are true punk bands versus those with a "punk sound".Just listened to some. Music is good, not sure about the lyrics.
I like some but not all punk......
"Hey Ho Let's Go"I honestly don't think it's humanly possible to like all punk. My guess is most of us novice punk fans would like similar "punk pieces"... Then their are true punk bands versus those with a "punk sound".
I counter with "20, 20, 20, 4 hours to go...""Hey Ho Let's Go"
