Someone has called me a sheep *meh* for buying an i-pod.

Because I'm buying a product coveted by apparently half the world, and hence confirming my conformist status. Soon I'll be buying a diamond ring, a house, a car, having kids, blah blah blah.... and walking in line with the rest of the sheep -_-!!!!!

First, ye gods, all I bought was a freakin' MP3 player to play music..............

Secondly, I'm conforming by buying an i-pod like everyone else. But if I'm buying to satifsy my individual needs of music, then doesn't that make me a non-conformist, because I'm putting my individual needs over societal status?

And if I'm refusing to non-conform by conforming to the crowd, does that by default make me a non-conformist among the non-conformist crowd?

(@_@) Yea, I'm twisting words around to make an argument (^_^) But anyway since by default everything we buy - handphones, jeans, t-shirts, Harry Potter books even, [btw was blase about the movie, eagerly waiting the book] - makes us a conformist one way or another, I'm not sure why you even made that statement to me. :p Heh heh heh...... (^_^)

Oh no! I used a conformist smiley! (^haha^)

I danced with the devil in the pale blue light

But all he offered me were empty promises

Word and deed as insubstantial as air

Yearning my soul to be saved

Then his light was cast upon me

And I tasted sweet salvation at last

Now I dance to a different light

More brilliant and technicolour than before

And I pray that my feet keep dancing
