    It’s sucks having to qualify which kind of weird I am. Could t we have found a different word to use? Bizarre and abnormal come to mind.

      As someone who also qualifies as “good weird”, I think we take the bullet on this one. Seeing how upset it makes them is a decent trade.

          Been called weird my entire life and idgaf anymore - it lost it’s sting a long, long time ago. If it bothers them, that’s fantastic.

          Embrace it. I have a bumper sticker with a rainbow unicorn on it that says “stay weird”. Have had it for at least half a year now.

        Can you provide an example of someone upset by this? The only place I see it is in the comment section of Democrats, and I went looking for someone being offended in r/conservative. Didnt find one example in 15-20 minutes of scouring comments.
