What do you think of very eccentric people?

Answer 1

This is too mishmashed a question as there ever was. There are eccentricities of all forms and types. I once knew a man who wouldn't sit down unless everyone else sat down first. He refused to use a spoon except with soup, and would crush his bread before eating it. He wasn't unusual in all but those ways. It's just the way we set ourselves up. Habits and subconscious rituals that we have developed in our lives. As for those you talk about when speak of people hording cats, talking to poster, or even sitting a spot for lucifer. Those aren't eccentricities, those are emotional responces to fears or schitzophrenic pathology. As for those who like to stand out, and do wild things. They do that because they get a pleasure responce at causing shock or awe. Nothing eccentrical with that, that's a personality device some people have. As for dancing alone, talking out loud to ones self, all these things that allow us to cope better in life, these are eccentricities. If it bothers you to no evale that there is a single crumb of cheese on the counter, but the fungus growing in the bottom of your sink doesn't that's an eccentricity in it's own. It's an unfounded nor unidentifiable ritual we put ourselves through as an emotional responce to very specific ideas or thoughts that reach across our brains. They're nothing to be afraid of because they are benign, and serve only the person doing them. Though making someone laugh may seem to a good reason to do some of these things. That's where my eccentricities derive. I talk to myself imitating movies and lines from books or music. When I'm bored I'll sing, even if I don't remember all of the words. I think of the most far fetched ideas in the world. I rationalise everything, and I can't seem to keep from doing it with god. I don't they all make sence, but they're just built into my personality from birth. Naturally inquisitive, so I ask alot of stupid questions just to see other people's opinions. I have a very very large vocabulary, so often I talk over people's heads. I talk in poems or in lit, but always in a manner befitting a noble man. I speak in edwardian architypes, and renisance romanticism. I adopt every silly or outragious way of talking, so that I am actually acting out characters when I tell a story. It's just a product of creativity or simplicity. Those are eccentricities, they can be defined as stress reactions, creativity and sometimes simplifing or distorting. They are usually learned however, and not simply autonomic. Otherwise they would be OCD's.

"Yeah fslcaptain737, it first comes to mind that a lot of celebrities are considered eccentric ... and for good reason. I think some really dress funny. They're known by the public to pull "crazy" stunts ... just check out John McCririck, Patrick Moore, Vivienne Westwood, Jimmyu Savile and Uri Geller.
It appears that odd and eccentric behaviour increases with age. Odd or eccentric includes people diagnosed with schizoid and/or schizotypal personalities.

Answer 3

"Eccentric" as in having thirteen cats and talking to a Johnny Depp/Capt.Jack Sparrow cardboard stand-up and telling friends the best way to stay cheerful is to dance with your rice bowl on your head?

Or "eccentric" as in having obscenity-laced arguments with God while grocery shopping and never opening the drapes because if you do the sun will burn off your face and setting an extra plate on the dinner table for Lucifer?

Hmm. Interesting question.

But there is a sometimes fine line difference between eccentricity and pathology...

Answer 4

I'm an eccentric person. I did it to start with to help myself with the average everyday stresses I have to deal with. Eventually though it became part of my character and one of the things I'm best known for. I ramble on and on about things no one knows about and usually they have no clue what I'm saying. I have a substantial vocabulary. I dance in public places for no apparent reason but it makes people laugh. I break out in song when I'm tense and I talk to myself. Not because I'm crazy but because it helps me deal with life. Sometimes it makes people smile and that makes my day.

Answer 5

I my self is eccentric, but not very. I think it's good to deviate from the norm, but not in a crazy way.

Answer 6

depends on the nature of the eccentricity. i think people who hoard cats are sad and lonely people. people who talk to themselves out loud are ok, and the conspiracy theory people are fun.
