They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Even this thread is inspired by and imitated by other threads. From our speech to our habits, we consciously and unconsciously pick things up from other people.

What are some things (habits, likes, dislikes, words, kinks) that you have picked up from someone else? Are they good or bad for you? What are somethings that people have picked up from you? What about you is worth imitating?

My favorite Lit thread is back.

I can't say that I've picked up anything from anything here. I've *learned* things about who I am and how fucked up I might be at that given moment, but I haven't learned any behaviors from anyone else that I'm aware of. I'm stubborn like that.

If anyone has picked up anything from me? I'm sorry...Y'all need a better role model. Please, for the love of fuck, don't imitate anything about me. Show you have some common sense, huh? There's a vast sea of decent, sexy, happy pervs here. Find a better one to cast your mold from.

Over the last sixteen months, the word y'all has entered my vocabulary, and I seem to have a craving for pecans. No idea why.

My accent is amazing.
So is yours.
I can only say “pah” since I’ve met you.

"Pah" meet "pecan"

 

[PrettyLilPussy19]

I am the worlds worst at picking up turns of phrase. And there have definitely been a lot of Britishisms that have entered my speech. I've also learned to sit on all strong emotions for 24 hours from a Litster.

I've imitated friends schedules lately and ideas for relaxation. I've been inspired a lot by the way my favorite Litsters post.

I don't know how much I've inspired others but it is funny to hear words I use a lot come out of some of yalls mouths.

 

[Mei5ter]

PeCAN pah!

Kawfee with that?

I try very hard to avoid what I consider affect. I’m also from a subculture (late 90s punk) that really looked down on posers and I’ve always considered affect to be posing. For example, when I lived abroad, I didn’t get all into hygge. But I did learn the language. I guess I have always been weary of being a poser. like when someone says their accent can pass for that or a New Yorker. I try hard to not be a poser, even if it doesn’t matter in 2020.

Alpine has taught me to be much more patient in terms of there being grey areas. I do think I am more open to compromise and more empathetic to others that aren’t in my situation than I was before I met him. Is that imitation? I don’t think I’ve subconsciously changed much. A partner of mine is also from another country and I definitely haven’t take lm anything from him (in that way! C’mon!). I think there may be phrases my spouse uses that have crept in, but that may largely be for consistency in parenting.

I think you’d be hard pressed to find anyone that’s imitating or has learned anything from me.

I think that's factually inaccurate ma'am.

Do you gravitate towards.vertain genders for advice? Do you trust one gender more than the other for specific types of advice? Does that change between lit and life?

I only trust females because they’re the only gender I want beejs from.

No... you're not allowed to retire.

In Lit and in life I tend to seek out advice from women more. More women I know seem willing to put in the emotional work of listening, processing, and offering constructive feedback. There are definitely some men who do that too - just not as many. Or if they do, they don't make it known. Or maybe I'm just buying into my own perceptions of women being more relational and men less so.

I think the only issue where I'd implicitly trust a man's judgment more is if something was up with my dick. Then I'd see a urologist and the only one I know happens to be a guy.

I may be the oddball. I don't seek advice from anyone. It is my life. No one knows me better than me. Will I ask a question of others? Sure. For example, you live near this community...what have you heard...is it safe to raise a 10yr old daughter in? But that is information gathering. Nothing more. I never ask what would you do?

I have sat in 12-step meetings for many years. It is common, to have someone say...this is what is going on, and I dont know what to do. Most people reply...I have never been in that situation, but if I were, this is what I would do. I used to be one. Then...when I was actually in that situation...I did the exact opposite. You cant judge others, unless you are in the same boat, having to choose among the same shitty choices.

 

[PrettyLilPussy19]

I only trust females because they’re the only gender I want beejs from.

...but there are some crazy ass people here, again, both genders.

Fact.

No... you're not allowed to retire.

Not in this economy

I may be the oddball.

As long as you know!

 

[LurkingPhoenix]

I tend to go to women for advice, here and in offline life, where all of my best friends are female.

It's just a thing. I'm not "one of the guys" offline, so I have few male friends.

I do have different people that I go to, like Indie said, for different types of input, all of whom I trust for valid perspectives.

EDIT: forgot a word, which changed a meaning unintentionally. Oops...fixed.

Not specifically, no. I tend to go more to women because on the topics where I'm likely to ask advice, they're by coincidence more likely to have valuable things to say. It's not always been like that, it's changed as my friendships have shifted. It'll probably shift more in the future. This is in meatspace, though - I don't really ask for advice on Lit.

 

[PrettyLilPussy19]

I think I go to whoever has experience in the area I need advice on. People who seek or trust advice from one gender over the other bother me for some reason.

I.e. I can give Girl A advice, good unbiased advice, that will actually solve the situation and she will thank me and forget it. But if Boy B gives Girl A the same advice, suddenly he's so smart and thoughtful. That shit makes me roll my eyes so hard. (And probably makes me Cunt C.)

 

[Dribble]

Dont hate on me...I never asked to be smart.

Inspired by a challenge from a friend...

What four albums can you listen all the way through without skipping a track? These maybe aren't your favorite artists or albums, but just a good from front to back album.

*No one is going to be a music snob so don't be shy.
** Bonus point for pictures of the album covers.

Hi! I'm Boy B!

Girl A gives me all the big eyes and hair playing stuff, thanks me for my wonderful advice, and spends lots of time annoying her friends by telling them what a sensitive and smart guy friend she has. And then completely ignores my advice and does the exact opposite. Next day, she wants another hour of my time and more advice. Rinse and repeat.

Can I go for a beer with Cunt C and bitch about Girl A please?

 

[Mei5ter]

We can, but you can’t bitch about Girl A too much, or I take you out at the knees.
Capice?

Got it. But don't call me Caprice unless I'm dressed up?
