How do you ask a woman out on a date?

It really is the non sequiturs that get on everyone's nerves. I agree with all the people agreeing with all the people. The constant one-upping is really what is putting people off. I think most people were on your side at the beginning...and then the body of work did not let people buy into what was being sold. It's that simple.

Humility is a great thing, so is modesty. All of us have jobs, hobbies, kids, parents, friends, siblings, passions, etc. that we are proud of, but we share when the opportunity presents itself. Not to just throw it out there and try to get everyone to bow down to your ego.

And maybe you don't think you are trying to get us to worship how great your life is, but that is the way it is coming off. It isn't working out too well.
 
po1d did 3 tours in 'Nam...... I was in Corpus Christi on business a month ago. I had this eight foot tall Asian waiter, which made me curious. I asked him his name. Sure enough it's Ho Tran po1d!
 
The marriage thing was a cheap shot, no doubt.

Side observation: most people are good at what they do, yet not thought arrogant. P, I have no idea, really, but arguing that what people are not liking is in fact a good thing just seems ... to be missing a useful insight.
 
You said you're doing contract work, and that your former coworkers are still your coworkers--but what kind of contract work is there at the capitol right now?

Why did you wait to get a job this legislative session, coming into the session weeks late? Or was that a conscious decision?
 
At least you are true to yourself - whatever that may be worth.

In your consistent reasoning, just because someone doesn't see eye to eye with you it's because of them - it's their fault. Either they have a grudge, aren't as experienced as you, aren't as worldy as you, don't work as hard as you, don't appreciate this or that like you, etc. Do you see what I'm saying? Why in the world would I have a grudge against you? Just realize that others are different and that sometimes it's for worse but sometimes for the better too.
 
You haven't admitted to being arrogant, you brag about being arrogant.

(I know my comment sounds funny but it makes sense to me.)
