Comments on: Three different girls http://cogscanthink.blogsome.com/2008/03/03/three-different-girls/ I'm feeling pretty good about myself right about now.

Yeah, I’m from Finland, how did you know? :D

I study languages, it was easy to notice the uncanny resemblance in style of writing between your comments here and your OSNews account, which lists nationality :).

Anyway, don’t you find it any attractive at all if a person dares to think, look and act a bit different than all the others around you?

Just remember to take enough time for yourself to relax and recharge your batteries, too :)

Of course, someone looking different doesn't mean they actually do think any different, they just might be imitating their friends..but it's more probably that they are individualists :) Oh, and you sure seem to lead a busy life, always hanging around in OSNews, writing these blogs of yours, still have time for friends, school et al.. Just remember to take enough time for yourself to relax and recharge your batteries, too :) Yeah, I’m from Finland, how did you know? :D

I don’t think I’ve ever worked on university stuff that late." Are you sure you are a student? “And it was 02:00. I don’t think I’ve ever worked on university stuff that late.”

Sometimes I might come across as a bit... Harsh on these issues, but let me assure you, if Goth Girl wants to dress like that - that's all fine by me. She's a pretty lass, and she's gonna make some goth boy really, really happy. And let's face it, goth boys need happiness :P.

You're odd :) I just find gothic girls and guys very very attractive myself ^^ A few well-chosen piercings, somewhat unordinary look and voila! I'll be drooling all over the floor :3 Though, it's only the looks, I don't like those people who pretend to be soooo dark and depressed and all that..People often classify me too as a goth by my looks but not by my manners or personality. Anyway, the point is: I happen to like it when people look something different than most, when people DARE to look different, to act different, to think different.
