Hello, please tell me a little about yourselves...
Adam - I couldn't think of anything clever, so I picked a handle that rhymed with "username." I like to dodge steak knives and mini carousel horses. I was born without original sin and I have a terrible tic from all the meth I did when I was 10 and studying for the MCAT.
Originally posted by Anonymouse It's called collective mass mindedness. Attaching ourselves to external institutions so we can be part of the crowd, or the collective.
People indeed fears of not belonging to any group, big or small.
I observed this many times around me. On the other hand, people not belonging to a group are seen as "different", with all the advantages and the drawbacks this word may contain.
So, instead of saying UCLA, say "I'm a citizen of the world". At least it would indicate us that you don't stop your work at the half.
