Post subject:  Are you arrogant?

I’ve never considered myself to be arrogant but I’ve come to understand that from outside perspectives, I am. I will say that I’m a serious person professionally. I think that comes across as arrogant.

I always thought it was pride to arrive where I am given the option tree that was available to me as a kid. But that’s a hard thing to infer. So I vote Dr. Ken is arrogant.

So, are you arrogant?

Yes. People find it charming. Thing is I really have no reason to be.

I don't think I'm arrogant but I am very very confident. That comes off as arrogant to people who are less self assured.

MANY here are in desperate need of an ego death.

Having said that, answering no is arrogant IMO.

I don't think I'm arrogant, but what I believe doesn't matter. It's all about how others view you. Since that is the case, you can call me just about anything.

Based on what I’ve read on the board, I believe Nas to be a childless white man.

That's correct. I have a feeling some of my co-workers would think I am because I wear headphones every day and don't talk hardly at all. I wear them because I don't want to hear the same 2 guys doing 90% of the talking in the office.

This is the Arrogance Paradox.

Yes. But at least I realize that I have even far less of a reason than I displayed as a yout.

Confident? Yes. Arrogant?...also yes.

I’m not arrogant.

I’m just smarter, funnier, and more clever than anyone I've ever met.

I don’t think that counts.

No, I’m not arrogant. People at work would say I am an easy-to-work-with, rather affable colleague.

This is the Arrogance Paradox.

I think this is from a movie but it’s similar to “are you generous” - “generous people don’t describe themselves as generous”

Only about things I'm good at, which is pretty much everything besides manual labor.

Post subject:  Re: Are you arrogant?

It’s hard to be humble when you’re perfect in every way.

Luckily for me I don’t suffer from that affliction and instead am riddled with self loathing that overwhelms the arrogance I did/do have. It’s there it just gets overshadowed.
