Poll question: Do you go with the flow, or cause a ruckus?

Especially when you speak your mind?

1. It all depends...

Usually I'm the one who stirs the pot.. flips.. etc. I know when and how to do it properly. I dont flip out on the cashier for not taking a 33 cent coupon off, or making a stupid mistake.. I flip on the guy who nearly rams my car with his own stupidity.

If I'm at my inlaws.. I just want to get out of there as soon as possible, so I sit there and hear about their self righteousness lives without pitching in.

If I'm at my parents... I give them my 2 cents all the time.. hell, I call my mom up and give her my opinion lol.

2. I used to be so diplomatic that I couldn't take a side

in anything.I could see both perpectives completely! Now, I go with what I really believe and call 'em as I see "em. I know I am pissing people off, but I no longer care! Too many years spent diplomatically afforded me nothing. That is one reason why I am vastly amused when some even on DU are ticked when I speak my mind!It really is a good feeling.Someone has to speak out.That is anothe r reason I began to work with media. I believe it is time to speak up and rattle cages. Nicey nice doesn't work. Let'em KNOW how you feel!
