Hah. I bet they were insulted. They probably understood it as "I don't care about you / I don't like you", which is a quite rude thing to say...

People call me both negative and positive terms, some of them being true and some out of plain spite.

Negative: neurotic, idiot, inflexible, overly serious, immature, bad-tempered, arrogant.
Positive: intelligent, creative, weird/unique, funny.

Depends on who it is. Those with whom I interact with at work on a daily basis seem to like me well enough, and usually comment on how funny, vulgar, and unflappable I am. People who piss me off typically act scared or nervous. Otherwise, it doesn't seem like people really notice me at all, but then I don't really pay attention to others so they could be staring, pointing, and laughing for all that I know. My wife and daughter seem to like me well enough, and I have to live with them so that's all that really matters. I was called a heartless bastard by a complete stranger once when a guy grabbed my arm while choking on a piece of food in a Perkins and I stared him off of me, so I guess people occasionally notice, but it seems like someone has to be on the verge of dying first. ;)

People who know me tend to describe me as a bit odd (or a weird cookie, although I know exactly one person who says that) but nice, kind, sweet etc.

People who don't tend to see me (from what I can tell) as a loner, weird, psycho-ish, and as if I had an emotional and mental age of 2.

Mysterious is the word people use most.

Most people don't get me because I so often zig when they think I should zag, but I still do things with a good enough sense of taste that's it's more interesting to people than something that would put them off. People always wonder how I know the things I know and they are often shocked to see me do things they never knew I could do. I've always loved to surprise people. Not in an ambush kinda sense, but more in a "Holy crap! That was bad ass! I just didn't know you could do that!" sorta way.

I like getting that reaction. It's pretty fun.

Those to know me would say i`m nice, smart, and creative.

Those that don`t would think i`m one of those specisl kids that are
still attached to stuff like dolphins and don`t have any friends.
They will also think i`m wierd and have the crap beat out of me all tje time.
