Why do people dislike you?

I can be argumentative, over analytical, and talk way too much sometimes. I'm sure there is other stuff but those are the things I'm aware of.

People talk about working to change, etc, but for the most part we are who we are and it's best to accept our faults along with our good qualities, within reason of course. IME people don't change much but they can mature and develop certain parts of their make-up and reduce the impact of others.
 
The people who dislike me, and I hope its only a few, generally do because I don't put up with BS, don't care what they think, and call it like I see it. I'm not interested in peoples politics, theology, or advice on how to improve my golf swing. I don't converse with people who have nothing meaningful to contribute and don't get involved in the games people play. Sounds like I'm a loner but I'm not. Its just that after all these years I've come to learn that honesty is the best policy and keeping your cards on the table helps keep issues from going unresolved.
On the flip side of that coin I have many admirable qualities that have helped build lasting friendships and relationships both inside and outside of my musical endeavors.
 
Most of the time it appears to me that people do like me, however there have a been a few people that I have come across that didn't like me. Those include...

- People who I have called out on there over inflated ego's
- Guys who's girlfriends I have slept with or gotten close to
- People who I have caught stealing, then they try to turn it around on me to make me look like the bad guy
- Jealous people (of what, I have no idea)
 
Because I eat my boogers

This is good for you. It's like disgusting penicillin.

Mucophagy (literally mucus-eating, also referred as picking one's nose and eating it) is the consumption of the nasal mucus, boogers, and other detritus obtained from nose-picking.

Modern scientific research suggests that mucophagy seems to be a natural and even healthy activity, which exposes the digestive system to bacteria accumulated in the mucus, thereby helping to strengthen the overall immune system.

The body even naturally encourages the formation of a dense, salty coating to the boogers to make them more palatable. There is no other known reason for the high salt content in the mucus in the nose.

We called them geeks in grade school, but now theyre superhuman!
