Do you think of yourself as "special"?

Yes, no, maybe. In my mind sometimes I feel so different from everybody else and that I guess makes me special. When I take a step back and look at things from not inside my mind, I am not much different from other people; well at least that is what I see. Other's have said differently and others say I am just plain a freak of nature. Now compared to my family, maybe is the best way to describe it. Compared to some I am normal, compared to others I am crazy.
I'm usually one to say really generic, kind of corny stuff like the "everyone is special in their own way" kind of thing to other people except for those that I really resent, except that I'm really self-deprecating to myself and firmly believe that I don't live up to my potential so I probably would not say that I am special. Maybe privileged, a bit peculiar and that I do have qualities, but I would not say that I am the least bit special.
there r hella dumb fucks
yeah, thats how i c it, too. most people have a hard time with just hte simple things, let alone trying to make sense of bigger things. so they don't excel at much, then theres people like me, or you, that don't mean to be conceited and certainlyknow we aren't the #1s but it's so easy to excel at everything....

Okay, every time I see this thread I think
"Yea, special ed"
However in our PC world that just seems so insensitive but I think it is funny. I mean in my heart I don't see it as making fun of mentally challenged (hows that for PC) but I understand it is. I have come to the conclusion that perhaps I just have a slightly sick sense of humor and maybe I should develop some type of warning label. I have seen others post similar responses so at least I know I am not alone.

I know what you mean. However, when I post things like this, it's because I am acknowledging my own cognitive shortcomings sincerely... things like walking into walls, trying to unlock the car door, then discovering that I'm not actually at my own car, looking for my glasses, then discovering that I am already wearing them etc. (Se fail stuff. I think it's important to be able to laugh at yourself!)

Oh man, I used to do silly stuff all the time. Looking for my sandwhich when it was in my hand was quite a bad 1.
I have also missed quite a few doors, that always hurts and makes everyone laugh...
I have somehow improved upon my silly mistakes though, I have managed to think clearer before acting, probably because i'm not so worked up easily about stuff anymore. I just calm down and think clearly.
I always love hearing these 'special' story's though.
