Dude, a friend's little sister got her face almost ripped apart thanks to a cute little dog. She now has scars for the rest of her life

Chihuahuas are the worst

Obviously when your dog bites a stranger you don't question if having a dog is ok. That's until it bites you or someone you love.

From what I gather, conformity is largely about labels. You can run without identifying as a runner. You can workout without identifying as a gym bro. You can philosophise without identifying as a philosopher.

If you think of a lot of the non-conformist people you know, they probably rarely ever describe themselves as any of these “-er” suffixed nouns.

It can be very comforting to describe yourself as part of a group but it’s also very limiting.

Partying is conformist and singing all the shitty mindless songs as well. The most conformist are the most successful in these types of scenarios because they are in tune.

I've been watching these E Comm guys, lots of them from the Netherlands, they are very conformist.. I only watch to get some info on how they get so rich lol, but in essence they all do the samethings, once they get some cash flow and financial success they all move to Dubai, they all network with one another and talk about ad creatives, scaling, supply chains and eventually turning the ecomm business into a Brand, then they go on trips to either Ibiza, or Marabella, rent an expensive house and cars for a week or mth and then work work work, and for a break in their day they go for coffee, workout by the beach, talk shop together, then maybe on Friday or Saturday night party, its like they are all clones lol, but they are raking in the dough!!  They most all seem like nice guys for sure, I haven't seen any videos with Women doing this though which is strange!!

Saying " taking a shit" is conformist.

I am sure this is psychological from evolution, as it could alarm predators. And now is funny

Farting being unacceptable and taboo is conformist. We'd rather suffer holding farts for hours instead of enduring a bit of smell.

Maybe at some point in history adults passing gas killed babies or got them very sick so we would just humiliate the bastards!

Changing your name to a spiritual one, like Adyashanti.

@Leo Gura I've always wondered, what's the use of that? Why should one do it? Do they get something out of changing their name to a spiritual one?

Indian words are popular as spiritual names.

They get spiritual fools swooning over them.

Being “polite”. Some Bible thumper caught me at a grocery store and I stood there listening to him instead of telling him to f*ck off and leave. Conformity on his part and mine.

Circumcision, is it a cultural thing turned religious ?

Who and why did it started?

Why did everyone just follow along?

I mean its crazy, almost torture.

It was very painful for me.

After the procedure, every one was congratulating me, saying im a man now.

I mean everythings ok. But talk about conformity. Why? Just why?

PUAHAHAHHAHA

This one killed me

It's true, in the same way burping is disrespectful in some countries but in others, like Arab ones, is a great gesture of education. It's even disrespectful not burping if they invite you to a big and expensive dinner! Imagine your mother telling you as a kid remember to burp loudly, you have to be a polite boy.
