Family- 15 %
My Priest - 10%
My Therapist - 5 %
My husband - 40 %
ILE - 1 %

the rest is freinds .
I take advice and consider
The advice itself is weighed to those numbers.

So David gets more weight than you?

― Josh, Thursday, 26 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

No i take in everybodies advice, weigh them according to those numbers, and make my own decisons. For example if David has an opinon on X , and you have an opinon you are 39 % less important. As well read ILE as net buddies.

I have never listened to anyone in my entire life!

However, I am learning to temper this, by finding people who are sensible and giving their opinions consideration. I have, like, 2 or 3 friends I actually trust enough to do this. The rest of the world can go to fucking hell, I don't give a damn what you all think.

i have a great interest in what everyone thinks, both people i know, and on things like this (this is partly why i'm on here so damn much!)

Family = not at all which is why I am not now Prime Minister or CEO of a major company. Friends = more than they think, probably. Complete strangers = loads.

If they agree with me: 100 percent.
If they disagree: 0 percent.

Too much, to the point I let people destroy me without them realising it.

― Paul Strange, Thursday, 26 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

i never listen to my own advice, though I often paid attention to my vices.

― Geoff, Thursday, 26 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

My own opinion is negative enough about my life, nothing anyone says will change that, it's alright.

― Ally, Thursday, 26 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

I only listen to the voice in my bed.

― Mike Hanle y, Thursday, 26 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Mike, do you sometimes wake up two feet above your bed spewing green goo on your Sonic Youth poster? If so, I think it's time to call the Exorcist. :-)
