Number 28: Ego
I'm glad I haven't run into that many people with a huge ego in person. It's just like someone who is no game all talk; and I really don't like it or see the point of it. There are 2 types of Ego; real, and online. Either way it doesn't help anyone.
I can't stand people who have ego in real life. There is almost no situation that requires you to have an ego. I prefer not to brag, and if the time comes, I'll let my actions speak for themselves; not my words. There are all these dudes who claim "yeah I could be with so many girls right now" or "I know I'm the shit" or "Man, you are easy to me." Well then show us already! Because I haven't seen anything. It's even more unfortunate for the people who can back up there talk. For example, Dallas Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens has a huge ego, but his football game is good enough to back up his talk. Now however, all you're left with is a self-centered person who not many people like anymore and has done nothing but bring trouble for his coach and his teammates, causing him to switch to many different teams. If ego is your thing or your a fan of it, maybe you should reconsider.
Online ego is ridiculous. This is for people who, in real life, are either made fun of themselves, or wish they could do the same thing in real life. Why would you ever want to taunt people or use bad language to try and make people think you're cool? This just makes no sense and is a complete waste of time. Just even looking at the comments on YouTube video's can show you how many stupid people there really are.

In early high school some people might have thought I had a bit of one, because I had this personality where I pretended to be cool. However, people who knew me or met me knew it wasn't real and knew that I knew a lot of the things I claimed weren't true or a joke. But I really pushed away from all that. I'm just trying to be me, Andy Hulme, someone who's cool, reliable, and fun to hang with. I really hope that's how I'm seen or can be seen someday... because there is just no place for ego around here.
