Stereotypes... a few thoughts...

[kelaino25]

I saw this on one of my friend's bulletin board and reposted. Funny thing is that many of these fit and yet don't. I fit into many boxes and maybe even do some of the things or have some of the traits they list... I thought it was interesting so i thought i would go through it here...

this is to help people understand that stereotypes are dumb! and normally are not correct

Okay people; Everbody labels & judges the fuck out of everything.
NOBODY doesn't label. Its human nature to label and we don't know what we would do without labels. So stop complaining about it; You do it, I do it & you just need to understand the people that label you badly aren't worth your time ~edited for spelling errors~
