I recommend it for Willis, too. And he's right. It does get misinterpreted. People think you're stuck up or something, but you're really just taking things in, mortified by alot of what we see. I mean just look at the world. How we treat each other. Bombs and stuff. WTF is wrong with us? LOL
In hs i was very shy, but stronger than most everyone at the school so I was accused of being stuck up.. The house my folks bought was new and in an area with mostly run down places so I got pegged as the rich kid on the hill despite the house not being worth much. I got in fights of course so beating the snot out of a few loud mouths kind of won a few people over. There was a real loud mouth little twirp nobody liked and the day he came within inches of getting tossed out the 3rd floor window was the day people stopped thinking i was stuck up . Lol in retrospect I'm glad the gym teacher stopped me because I had every intention of tossing him out that window . Oddly enough he never bothered me again after that day. I wonder why .
