Here's a couple of mine:

• Rationality
• Punctuality (respect for other people's time)

that's a big one with me too...huge, in fact

I'm sure my online demeanor would say otherwise

but I'm very respectful of other people

imo, that's the first building block to a better society

I would've had Benjy writing from outside the studio long ago and I wouldn't have been so quick to reinstate his Wrap Up Show privileges.

I think it's all put on. He does write some killer lines, but please - please - keep him off the mic.

Consistency

Stubborness

Not being two-faced.

Not being afraid to go against popular opinion even if I'm the only one that opposes it.

Nos. 1, 3 & 4 are great, but you pride yourself on stubbornness?

This is soooooooo important.. I CANNOT stand people keeping me waiting.

For me:

Being Honest is really hard in a world that really doesn't want it. I have worked with people that are just plain devious and view honesty as a threat to their person. There are people that like honesty to a point, but true honesty comes with an acceptance of individuality. I guess that's why people group together with like mindsets so they feel comfortable with people around them. If a person differs from that mindset of the group they are an out cast. (If you didn't notice before I babble.) True honesty allows for people to still be friends even with opposing views. (There are always exceptions to this "rule")

Loyal to almost a fault.

Being Funny with respect to the parties I make fun. Making fun of people and situations is what it is all about. To bring laughter to the world. Although some people need to loosen up a bit-for me a joke is a joke, not just some dig at someone.(I hate hidden agenda jokes-be upfront and honest.)

nice post

but being loyal and honest becomes difficult if not impossible at times

I pride myself on my loyalty, generosity, and my insistence on never becoming someone else's burden. i almost never ask for help or favors, which can obviously be a bad thing

Yeah, I've probably become independent to a fault, too. I don't like feeling beholden to anyone.

Hell yeah. I see people all the time being talked into doing things they really didn't want to do or giving in or backing down when they knew damn well that they were right to begin with but were too weak minded to stick to their own guns. Not me. My stubborn ass will stick to my guns till the cows come home.

you might befriend someone who at some point falters in their judgement, on request you give him your opinion and opsla he feels betrayed. Not wanting to have your honesty compromised you stick to your guns, and there's y'friend writhing in his mess, blinded n' dulled by sentiment.

I think I've at times prided myself on being warm-hearted, creative and (when called for) objective.
I like to challenge myself.



Nice thread, BTW.

Then you should say you pride yourself on your "resolve". It's more flattering.

Oh, okay - I see what you mean. I would suggest, though, that a good friendship can withstand disagreement over advice that's been sensitively delivered.

What's "opsla"?

P.S. Carrie!

Being punctual

Being considerate about other people

Being polite

always briging a gift to someone's house, never arriving empty-handed, shows appreciation I think

being honest is another

being a straight forward gal, i don't beat around the bush.

Not being nice when i want something and discarding you when I dont. Either you like me or u don't.

I dunno if I can get behind this one.

If I'm invited to someone's house, it's 'cause they're a friend, right? And do I need to bring them something material? Isn't my acceptance of their invitation, my demeanor and a verbal expression of my appreciation enough?

Unless it's, like, a housewarming or something, where a gift is expected.

Let's dialogue on this!

It is the arab way but some people don't do it, nothing expensive just a box of chocolates or something. I love it!
