There and back again

No this is not the hobbit.

It's just Ben here to rant about stuff. Whatever I come across really. And to be fair I really do come across a lot of things to whine about. Some things aren't even necessary.

But that's the thing. (essentially that's what I wanna rant about for this first post.) Everyone is just afraid to question things I suppose. People want to follow the norm and not step out of boundaries and challenge things. Which is really funny coming from me because I believe I'm such a rule follower. But when it comes to all these social niceties, for some reason, I love to challenge them. Things that most people would say why challenge, this is already accepted.

What's the point in just accepting right? You gotta find out why you're doing something instead of blindly following something. So here I am. To challenge the norm.

Also, if you're looking for someone who's consistent and right all the time, I'm not your guy. You can ask my friends how inconsistent I can be on some of my stands. But what I believe is right, I'll stand for it and debate/argue about it. Easy way to piss a lot of people off, but somehow, I still have friends. I don't know how my friends put up with it though.

What I realised today also is that by acting the way I do/having extreme opinions on things, it forces people to educate me on the real circumstance. To "try and prove me wrong". For some reason, I noticed I have a personality that really entices people to put all they have into proving me wrong. Albeit not everyone, but really interesting characters. I really do appreciate some of these people though. Makes me think. Though, some of them are just there to make noise with no substance. Really just a waste of time. But hey! people wanna talk, like me, so talk!

So here's to the first post. I won't be here often, just occasionally when something needs ranting on. So see you again when something pisses me off. :)
