Is there anyone here who is not obnoxious?

obnoxious a-hole here.
You really should have made this topic a poll.

I have been told once as a kid by someone she thought I was obnoxious. I am not sure if others thought that too but I had other negative labels from other kids.

I am just laid back and keep to myself in the real world so I don't think anyone would see me as obnoxious. I always leave people alone and not talk to them, I wasn't like this as a kid but I am sure I am obnoxious when I have anxiety or get very upset.

I could be pretty obnoxious as a kid. I misbehaved and annoyed people a lot. I was kind of all over the place, anxious to connect with the other children and find a place or group where I belonged.

I never did. It just made me a class clown. Being sincere and approaching people directly never worked, so I embraced that role. I could make people laugh, but that didn't translate into friendship. After a while I stopped telling jokes and disrupting class and just kind of withdrew into myself. But hey, at least I'm not obnoxious anymore...

I try not to be but apparently I come off as mean and cold emotional. I also seem to talk about topics others think are to private to talk about. Such as " I will soon be getting ECT treatments." It's not a big deal to me but most people tell me I should not share it.

I'm actually fairly polite and nice to people generally. I often think or say mean things about humanity in general but I'm usually nice to individuals of the species. Occasionally I can say something embarrassing or hurtful but I don't think that's just because I have AS. I definitely would not describe myself as obnoxious. I can be sarcastic, negative, bitter and angry but I usually do not take those feeling out on other people.

In public I seem to able to put on a mask and get along with people. But with my family around I'm as obnoxious as it can get ...

I have never been called obnoxious by anyone, though I have been at times called annoying.

However, all my life I have *often* been called too serious and too intense. Even a couple of months ago when I started working with a group of kids in a musical, the director introduced me and said, "She's really nice - she just doesn't smile."

One of my high school teachers actually signed in my senior yearbook, "Beneath that exterior, a wonderful and concerned person is constantly striving to do good things." Don't really know what "exterior" he was talking about, but apparently it was obvious.

I don't try to put up a wall.

The best way I have gotten along in my adult years is just by not talking so much. It doesn't get me many friends, but I can manage social situations better. Almost all the people I am "closer" to either are on the spectrum, hover around the edges of the spectrum, or have family members on the spectrum.

And while I may easily be enticed to argue, I am not easily offended. Someone has to be outright rude and do some name-calling or character-attacking to offend me.

Well, if I'm out going I'm obnoxious, but if I'm not, I'm seen as nice. Of course, I'm also invisible, so I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't. People in different circles see me very differently.

Oh, I'm one obnoxious old bat when I need to be, and many times even when I don't. I do know how to act around people, and pass for NT all the time, and am very familiar with the social graces, but sometimes I just don't give a rats ass, or other times I'm in a mood, or sometimes the person I'm being a b***h to just deserves it, etc, etc, etc. It's almost always on purpose with me. If I know I'm going to come across that way but don't mean it that way, I will give a disclaimer first. Something along the lines of "I REALLY DON'T mean this how it's probably going to come out, but...."

i won't intentionally hurt a nice person's feelings or anything, but my kids are very sarcastic (got it from me) and most of my friends are as well. So I have ample opportunity, sometimes without even leaving the house, to be as obnoxious as hell without hurting anybody's feelings and to trade barbs with somebody else and we all get a good laugh out of it.

However, when I'm really mad, I can cut to the bone with words. That's not what I'd call obnoxious though. Obnoxious to me, is more along the lines of joking insults about the one you are talking to, or completely serious ones about a third party you both dislike and who isn't there at the time, one liners, just that kind of thing.

Where's the fun in just being nice all the time? I'd rather people think I was a hoot and make them laugh than have them think I light up a room and just make them smile.

Hey, this is probably gonna be empty of replies, but Im gonna ask anyway. Are there any TeamARTAIL artists out there? For those who dont know, TeamARTAIL was a site for sonic fanart or fan based art. I wanted to post my works there, but the site died before I could. I was hoping to one day bump into anyone who was from TeamARTAIL, cause you guys were my inspiration.

In other news, I plan on posting my works here soon... that is, if this place is active.

I've never told off for being obnoxious. However, many people have told me off for being "antisocial", "sociopathic", etc.

I'm very blunt and tend to speak my mind with no filter, which has gotten me into trouble sometimes.

I don't think I'd be considered obnoxious, just stubborn maybe.
