Dkr. Howl : I think I finally know what you meant.

Hell, yeah, Kai.  If you show the primates what an actual human is, they'll kill you.  They have a proven track record of doing this very thing.  Keep it where they can't see it until you want them to, and then relish the looks of abject horror on their monkey faces.

Then pin it on one of their own, and walk away laughing.

Good. So we're on the same page then.

There's something to be said about the quietest person in the workplace suddenly becoming the most outrageous for a few moments.

(just an comment that this made me think of) My mother used to say she didn't have to worry about the outrageous students in her highschool english class, she would only keep an eye on the quiet one that never to spoke ever to anybody. i wonder if the workplace singles out quiet types. if so im in trouble...i went from a outrageous kid to a quiet worker bee.

Edit: at least in the office.

Kai, there's also something to be said about what you do on your own time.  I often don't feel the need to get my freak on at work, because I'm completely free to kick it when I leave.

You gotta have a safe space to let your hair down, if only for a few minutes a day.

What is this "safe space" you speak of? It sounds interesting.

Are you always in hiding?  Is there really nowhere you feel comfortable to say what's on your mind, without self-censoring?

That sounds horrible.

Does online count?

For now.  But I really must advise that you eventually make your way to a more metropolitan center with higher population density.

The freaks tend to accumulate in the corners of large cities.

I think that if I had somewhere I could get my freak on, I probably would not want to leave.

This, in itself, is not necessarily a bad thing.

It is if you're living in the Real World^TM.

Ah... I get you.  You're in the process of making The Sac®ifice.  Trading the life inside your skin for the life outside it.

Would you believe me if I told you that you can have both?

Not unless the world suddenly accepts and is deserving of my weirdness.
